@peraspera, @Lowbytes: I've updated the link with a version that supports OS X El Capitan. Let me know how it works for you @ndb: EScribe caches data the first time it downloads it to speed up future downloads. (Though, I should probably include a pre-filled cache with the download.) So, the first time it is fairly slow. COB is 0.63? It should be 0.063.

Preheat Punch is a relative temperature (relative to the setpoint - 160F below at 1, 100F below at 5, and 10F below at 11). Preheat Temperature is an absolute temperature. If you use the Preheat Temperature setting, it is really only appropriate to set it to the liquid's boiling point. By doing so, preheat reduces time-to-vape while keeping the mass flow rate mostly based on the power setting. Most folks are not testing thermodynamics, however, so Preheat Punch is friendlier and generally good (it can't be misconfigured horribly). The option existed in all earlier version of EScribe 2.0 as well. It's just specific to DNA 75 Color.

Hi Lowbytes. Don't worry. On Windows, we support back as far as is practical - XP Service Pack 3. I intend to do a similarly good job of compatibility on MacOS. Guess I'll need to set up some virtual machines to test old versions of MacOS.. Hmm. Go to Applications with Finder, right click EScribe Suite.app and click Show Package Contents. Then, go to Contents, MacOS, and double click RunProgram. Doing this shows more information while the program is starting. What error (if any) does it show when you do this? Thanks! James

I've posted a beta version: It's restricted to DNA 75 Color at present. We will widen it to all DNA devices after working out most of the bugs public testing will inevitably find. Keep a Virtual Machine handy just in case, but this version has been fairly usable in my testing.

Hello all, For some time now, as time has permitted, I've been separating out and making platform-independent the Windows-specific portions of our EScribe code. About a month ago I finished this, and began porting EScribe to MacOS. Today, I believe the Mac port has few enough bugs to be usable. I expect this will have bugs. Please let me know what you run into. Also, I don't use Mac on a daily basis, so if there is anything that seems unnatural to you relative to ordinary Mac look-and-feel, please mention that as well. https://downloads.evolvapor.com/SetupEScribe2_SP13_US.pkg https://downloads.evolvapor.com/SetupEScribe2_SP13_INTL.pkg Enjoy James Revision information: SP13 - Updated to SP13.

Do they have an About screen on this mod that shows what Service Pack it is running?

Send a serial command. F=60S will do a 1-minute puff, for example. On monochrome DNAs, F=#S (# being the number of seconds) sets a countdown timer. So, while it is firing, you can keep sending F=60S to extend the puff. F=0S stops the puff immediately.

Yes, the debug setting doesn't retain after power-off. It looks like the steady state power is different slightly. Am I seeing that correctly? Also, could you try an in-between value such as 0.04?

Howdy @ndb. Give this firmware a try. I think the issue is current offset when it's down at 0.5W. In Serial Terminal, X=GET COB gets the current offset. It is 0.025 by default on DNA 75 Color. On a DNA 75, it is 0.0625. Try X=0.0625 COB and see if it fixes the oscillation. I suspect it will. Thanks! DNA 75 Color v1_1_SP22_Beta2p2.sw-service

OK. Well that rules out X=READ DEBUG being the problem. Out of curiosity, what power level is it dropping to there? (To get to the recording, go to Device Monitor -> History -> Download All Recordings). It looks like a current offset issue, to be honest.

@ndb, if you go to Tools->Serial Terminal after having it pulsing like that, what does it say if you send the command X=READ DEBUG? Thanks! Also, for the rest of the folks trying that firmware, I'd be real curious what you get for that value after a while of normal use. (Sending the command resets it for the next time it's sent. No need to measure it every puff. I am wondering after a session what it is.) I'm expecting around -0.14 for temperature-protected coils, much less for Kanthal.

The attached beta firmware fixes the loss of Room Temperature modeling after uploading settings. Since folks tend to edit settings when things go wrong, this should mean a lot less incorrect 90F measurements. DNA 75 Color v1_1_SP22_Beta2.sw-service

With that firmware, you should certainly use a normal TCR like you would on a DNA 75. What are the board temperatures doing while the room temperatures are measuring like that, out of curiosity? Personally, I would try our default case thermals. I'm actually fairly skeptical of the DNA 75 Color Case Analyzer as it is implemented in the current Service Pack. In my opinion, its numbers are unreasonably high, and incorrectly aggressive thermals can definitely do what you are seeing. When I get time, I am going to investigate that. FWIW, if I am reading what you are doing right, you should know: when you measure Cold Ohms, it automatically takes Cold Temperature from Room Temperature. You don't need to do that manually.

You can get the most recent firmware for your DNA 75 Color by downloading EScribe Suite 2.0, from https://www.evolvapor.com/products/dna75color Alternatively, here are the links: EScribe Suite 2.0 US Edition EScribe Suite 2.0 International Edition Once you install it and connect your device, if you are not running the newest firmware, it will offer it.

If you are feeling adventurous, try the attached firmware (Tools -> Apply Service Pack) and see if it helps your Cold Ohms measurement. DNA 75 Color v1_1_SP22_Beta1.sw-service

It's a very good idea. The most recent version has a number of bug fixes, some of which are important. Download EScribe Suite 2.0 from the DNA 75 Color page, and it'll offer the firmware when you connect (near the top of the screen).

The board should retain the clock for about 30 seconds after a battery is removed, so that it won't lose the clock for a quick battery swap. Hmm. What is the battery voltage reading? Does it start charging again if you go to Diagnostics -> Disable Charging and then Enable Charging?

Hi @ndb. Mod resistance... When you measured with a copper plug and Atomizer Analyzer, did you have your mod resistance set to 0? The measurement you get there incorporates the current mod resistance setting (for example, if the whole mod resistance is 0.016 and your mod resistance is already set to 0.004, it will read 0.012). I need to make it show the raw resistance as well, for mod resistance use. With your 0.800, does it stay fairly consistently near there in Atomizer Analyzer? Or does it bounce around? (I am wondering if certain resistance ranges are less consistent on their cold ohms measurement, and/or if there is a grounding issue.)

Hello @ndb! This has been fixed in the newest Service Pack.

Hello @eucalyptus.! This has been fixed in the newest Service Pack.

Fixed low-battery charging issues with earlier Service Packs. Fixed a bug that made USB Power Bank mode not work. --- EScribe Suite --- Minor bug fixes.

The underlying code already works on Mac and Linux, actually (the Downloads section's theme previews are being generated by EScribe running command-line on Linux, for example), but the graphical interface needs to be ported over. As of today I've converted the last screen from Microsoft Windows Forms to our platform independent windowing layer. I work on it when I need a break from other code, so don't hold your breath, but I have been making progress.

Hi @gogo. I've updated the theme previews to show all screens. Hope it helps you. James

Spot on, it's an EScribe bug with odd numbered profiles. Looks like a remnant from something we were testing a while ago. This should be an easy fix. Thanks! By the way, I notice that Ohms in Atomizer Analyzer doesn't use a comma (the separator for your locale). Definitely let us know if you run into localization issues like that.

We've found the bug. It was theme related, and will be fixed in SP21. Thanks Andersen for finding it!
