There's a crack in the interweb
I have been getting quite a few requests for the video harness connectors lately, so since I am not putting those harnesses together anymore, here are some links to the Tyco connectors. They are all part of the Mark II series. Plug MarkII : 175967-2 Cap MarkII : 175975-2 Metal Receptors : 175062-1
I have put the firmware on sourceforge.net under a project aptly named, IEBus Controller. Its getting to the point where I cannot work on it enough nor make enough progress to warrant keeping it all to myself. This doesn’t mean that I wont be working on the project, but it does mean that I welcome [...]
I just finished putting together the prototype board with the relays all working as they should be. Its a nasty looking beast of a prototype board but its working. I will be testing out the features of switching the video and disabling the IEBus signal from reaching the navigation computer while in “PC” mode tomorrow [...]
Here is a diagram that I put together to show how I used both the 20 pin and the 8 pin (C) connector together to form a completely plug and playable solution for Dom’s video converter box. (Both plug N play harnesses featured in this diagram are available for sale through this website. Email robbienewton [...]
Just thought it worth mentioning that if anyone needs any of the 16 pin connectors, I have a few available. It came to mind because a guy by the name of Garrick Lau sent me an email asking if I had any I could sell to him. He is working on completely replacing the navigation [...]
With Dave’s help, the video switcher relay circuit is setup and working. I have not yet hooked up the actual wires that control the video toggling on Dom’s unit to the relay because its all pretty well installed in the car. I would do it tonight but its raining outside. For now (testing), the relay [...]
Well its been a long time coming but when I finally received the ‘C’ connectors this week, I made a harness from them to gain access to the ACC for starters. I had installed the PC in the trunk already but was waiting on these parts so that I could hook up the ACC line [...]
I decided to go ahead and place the order for the C connectors. Due to a request I received in email, I will be selling both a harness that will terminate to a DB9 connector (just like the AH-20 harness) as well as a DIY kit that will come with a plug, cap, DB9 connector [...]
I may be able to get some of the C connectors (8 pin) for the back of the navigation unit. Would anyone be interested in a harness to gain access to the wires on that plug without damaging anything? So far I have had one person request it and have been thinking about doing it [...]
I made a video showing a recent test that I did with the latest version of the mouse control software. The software shown in this video will cause the mouse to move to the touch event’s coordinate and click. This is triggered by the touch event handlers in a DLL which was produced by IEBus [...]
