  • Topic: Alpha disabled usb from bios
    You Reply: The USB header does work for me.
    Some 4 pin connections required inverting the D+ D- wires.

    Alternatively you could try finding the CMOS header & short the connection... (Old school trick)

  • Topic: Activation of Pull-Up Resistors
    You Reply: You can use PyMata API library to set the PULLUP value via pinmode in Python or use Firmata from the Arduino IDE directly.

    Did you connect with Techsupport team to run the RMA program properly following their guide? Look forward to your reply!
    I will help to lead the process. Thanks!
    Yes of course - one response asking for the version I ordered.
    But no further contact on my questions regarding a tracking number.

    Is you gmail address logged the same as the one u used to contact with us? I will notify the support team to connect with u soon!
    They have finally got back to me today.
    After 10 days after they said they were sending my replacement, they have finally done so.
    I now have a tracking number & courier at least.

    Still awaiting credit for my costs...

    mattepearce wrote: ↑Mon Jan 14, 2019 10:41 am Do you mean in the arduino ide? In which case when I have used them it is 0 and 1. You can also use them for serial as "Serial1". Perhaps you could explain what you are trying to achieve?
    My plan is to convert an Arcade1up cabinet into a multi emulator games machine. Similar to what others are doing with the Raspberry Pi but with the more powerful Alpha

    I have done a previous conversation & used the embedded 3way switch which controls volume to the GPIO pins on the Pi. I wish to do the same with the Alpha.

    While I await my replacement Alpha (DOA) I thought to confirm my code below. (Note: not tested) Which is similar to the code I wrote for the Raspberry Pi

  • Topic: External power button
    You Reply: Ok thanks I will look more into the Leonardo.
    With the raspberry pi you use the I2C SCL & GND pins as as power switch. Do you think that may be possible with the Alpha? Therefore no programming?
  • Topic: Arduino pin numbers
    You Reply: Ok thanks for confirming
  • Topic: External power button
    You Reply: Thanks. What about using a STDP switch with the Alpha? Any thoughts on using GPIO?
  • Topic: Arduino pin numbers
    You Reply: Already seen that, it doesn't answer my question... What would be the pin number for D0 & D1...

    You Reply: I have tried another power supply with no luck.
    Today I have returned the Alpha 864 as per the RMA instructions.
