nice to hear that it works for you. Regarding the root problem and for a list of commands please see the readme, there is described how to run it without root for ubuntu, should work on mint too. Also there is a link to a list of commands. Regards, Sebastian

I made a little software (originally for macOS, but I added Linux support in the latest version), it's not a full Escribe replacement, it's only the device monitoring part: https://github.com/hobbyquaker/dna-monitor Until now I only tested in on Ubuntu, would be happy to hear if this works on other distributions and if it's useful for you. Regards, Sebastian

Could you make a Screenshot of the serial console?

does it show the feature list (bottom right, something like "Evolv DNA, 3 Battery Cells, TC, PC, ...")? What happens if you open the serial console (menu "tools") and type in [CODE]P=GET SP[/CODE]? Do you have another DNA device for testing or only the DNA250?

found a possible cause of this bug, should be fixed in v1.0.1

I started to document the serial commands here: https://github.com/hobbyquaker/dna-commands

hehe, yes. i plan to get the todo done this year, should be possible I'm querying only one command at a time, waiting for the response and then sending the next command. It also only queries the datapoints that are visible in the chart, so the more curves you select the lower will be the querying frequence of a specific datapoint. I realized that there are sometimes some drops (no awnser to a GET command), still experimenting with different pause times between queries. Right now I have 5ms of wait after a series of queries (P,T,,... without pause, then 5ms wait, then again P,T,,...) - that seems to reduce the drops. I also realized that there are some commands (especially the E=GET xyz) that need a longer pause of ~50ms to reliably get awnsers in the next query.

My brains internal autocorrection corrected that subconsciously while reading ;-)

Great! R=GET LIVE is working! :-)

wohoo guessing sometimes is successful :-)) T=GET BOARD T=GET ROOM are working

Nope, that also returns the cold resistance. Seems to be irrelevant what's before the R, also XYZR=GET returns the cold resistance. I guess it's something after the GET, like R=GET XYZ, but my tries to guess it aren't successful

R=GET seems to return the cold-resistance. Can you tell me how to retrieve the current resistance during a puff?

Thx for the Infos! The correct command to get battery cell count is B=GET CELLS

thanks for pointing me on this highcharts link behavior, i've never clicked it... It's removed in the latest release. CSV export and retaining previous puffs is on my todo.

Thx And yes - I'm using the serial interface.
