GT Turbo Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 In parallel to the JagCF, Zerosquare is working on a new modul called : JagWire. This is an add-on to the JagCF allowing to use USB port for upload to the Jag, i have seen a little demo, that runs nice and more fastly than the original one. Good work Zerosquare Zerosquare if you can post a little photo, that will be very nice [french] En parallèle a la JagCF, Zerosquare a developper un petit module permettant en collaboration avec la JagCF d'utiliser un port USB en lieu et place du Centronic qui a disparu sur les nouveaux PC. J'ai pu voir une petite démo, cela marche mieux, plus stable et plus rapide que le Bjl original, donc bravo pour ton boulot Zerosquare !!

SCPCD Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 Ouai ca marché vraiment très bien native en a peut près 26s [english] Yes, the jagWire is a very good things Very high speed : Native uploaded in about 26s ! JagWire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosquare Posted April 25, 2006 Report Share Posted April 25, 2006 [Français] Merci pour la pub Quelques précisions : Il y a deux modes d'utilisation du JagWire : le mode BJL classique, en remplacement d'une connexion à un port parallèle, compatible avec la ROM BJL, la cartouche Protector:SE et le CD BJL (donc utile aussi à ceux qui n'ont pas la JagCF) ; et un mode de communication rapide avec la JagCF (jusqu'à 3 mégabits par seconde). Les logiciels seront fournis avec les sources, et compatibles avec (au moins) Windows 9x/2000/XP et Linux. Pour l'upload de Native Demo, ça prend en fait 19 secondes Pour le moment, ce n'est qu'une version bêta, il va falloir un peu de patience [English] Thanks for the publicity A few precisions : The JagWire has two modes : the classic BJL one, to replace a parallel port connection, which is compatible with the BJL ROM, the Protector:SE cartridge, and the BJL CD (therefore, also useful to those who do not own the JagCF) ; and a fast communication mode for the JagCF (up to 3 megabits per second). The software will be provided with sources, and will be compatible with (at least) Windows 9x/2000/XP and Linux. Uploading Native Demo requires about 19 seconds, in fact It is currently a beta version, so you will need a little patience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT Turbo Posted April 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 I was thinking about something like using STE/Falcon joy extended ports, because of the speed, and it was easy to use. Because we don't know for Ethernat card, and in this case of thing only Falcon+CT60+Ethernat users can do Jag coding, that's too limit GT Turbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerosquare Posted April 26, 2006 Report Share Posted April 26, 2006 [Français] Questions aux pros de l'Atari : le port série monte jusqu'à combien en vitesse ? Est-ce qu'il supporte le contrôle de flux matériel (lignes RTS et CTS) ? Le circuit de gestion USB du JagWire fait essentiellement la conversion USB <-> série, donc il y a moyen de le remplacer par un simple convertisseur de niveaux (genre MAX232) pour pouvoir se brancher sur un port série classique. Ça sera sûrement moins rapide, mais ça marchera. D'ailleurs, les Ataristes ont-ils vraiment besoin de la partie BJL, qui semble déjà marcher correctement pour eux sur port parallèle ? Ça vaut peut-être le coup de faire un autre petit module dédié JagCF... [English] Questions for the Atari specialists : what is the maximum speed of the serial port ? Does it support hardware flow control (RTS and CTS lines) ? The JagWire's USB chip is essentially a USB <-> serial converter, so it can be replaced by a simple level shifter (such as the MAX232) to allow the connection to a standard serial port. It will probably be slower, but it will work. By the way, do the Atarists really need the BJL part, which seems to work fine for them using the parallel port ? It would maybe be interesting to create another, JagCF-only add-on... Je soutiens Zerosquare à 200% dans ce projet ! [english] I'm a Zerosquare fan [Français] Merci FrediFredo !

Orion_ Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 A few precisions :The JagWire has two modes : the classic BJL one, to replace a parallel port connection, which is compatible with the BJL ROM, the Protector:SE cartridge, and the BJL CD (therefore, also useful to those who do not own the JagCF) ; and a fast communication mode for the JagCF (up to 3 megabits per second). so, the jagwire has 2 plug, one for the jagpad and another one for the JagCF ? is the JagWire more stable on WinXP than the Dos BJL software under portalk or whatever parallel port winxp driver ? (I hope so ^^) since it is compatible without using a JagCF, will the JagWire be available before the JagCF release ? if yes, when do you plan to release it ? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerosquare Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 so, the jagwire has 2 plug, one for the jagpad and another one for the JagCF ? Yes. is the JagWire more stable on WinXP than the Dos BJL software under portalk or whatever parallel port winxp driver ? (I hope so ^^) Much more, it seems. As of now, I've not had a single failed download using the JagWire. since it is compatible without using a JagCF, will the JagWire be available before the JagCF release ? if yes, when do you plan to release it ? Yes, it will be available before the JagCF release, but we don't have determined a definite release date yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zerosquare Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 Ben pour tout dire j'ai une petite baisse de motivation en ce moment Et faut que je prenne le temps de faire ça bien, une boulette en élec c'est moins facilement rattrappable qu'un soft (où il suffit de diffuser une mise à jour). Sans parler de tous les à-côtés (le problème du boîtier, de la fabrication, etc.) qui sont loin d'être ma tasse de thé... Donc je préfère attendre d'être bien concentré pour avancer (Oui, je sais que certains sont impatients. J'y pense, j'y pense.) P.S. : Merci pour les infos (comme d'hab !), Fredifredo. P.P.S. : Pour le changement de nom, j'ai rien contre. On repêche les anciennes suggestions ? Ou quelqu'un a une idée neuve ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredifredo Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Je pensais à un vote sur yaronet et AtariAge ? qu'est ce que vous en pensez ? Au final c'est Zerosquare qui prendra l'ultime décision de toute façon pour les sondages faut déjà avoir une liste de noms ... on pourrait refaire une séance de brainstorming à cette effet...

Zerosquare Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 [Français] On recherche une nouvelle idée de nom pour notre câble de communication USB (voir ici pour plus d'infos). Il s'appelle pour l'instant le "JagWire", mais certaines personnes pensent qu'il y a risque de confusion à cause de l'ancien site web d'Atari du même nom, et du site de cobracon. Si vous avez un nom sympa à proposer, postez ici ! (Note pour ceux qui ne sont pas inscrits comme membres sur ce site : le même sujet a aussi été posté sur AtariAge et Yaronet.) [English] We're looking for a new name for our USB communication cable (click here for more info). It's currently known as the "JagWire", but some people feel it will create confusion because of the former Atari website with the same name, and cobracon's site. So if you've got a cool name to suggest, go ahead and post it here ! (Note for those who are not registered members on this site : the same topic has also been posted on AtariAge and Yaronet).

Fredifredo Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 [français] Hummm .... perso je voudrais qu'il y ait "jag" dedans pour bien montrer pourquoi et pour qui c'est. et aussi qu'il y ait une note d'originalité ou un clin d'oeil au/du concepteur ( zerosquare ) - Jag-0²-wire - 0²-jaglead - JagUSB0² - JUSBy0² - Wire4jag -JagUSBwireby0² ( lol... j'ai pas trouvé plus long... ) [english] hummmmm ... for me , I would to see "jag" on the name to show what is it and for what is it. and I would to see a note from or for the conceptor ( the one who make it : Zerosquare ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
