Early Firmware and EScribe Suite Discussion Thread

[MikeA&P]

I am 99% sure now my case thermals are off. My IR temp gun says the mod is 72and on escribe it is 75.12. These are what I am using Cctc. 470 Chtc 390 Usb ch temp. 12 14.8 Mat -20 Mat 110 I got these from Evolv

Have you ran Case Analyzer?  My two DNA200's are not doing what yours are doing either.  Refinement works just as it always has... no problems here...

[MikeA&P]

I have and each time was new numbers. I ran it 5 times total. Then I called Evolv. I just tweaked a varible and now room temp modeled temp and board temp are good vs myIR temp gun and resistance is now .157 and falling. Also apparently when I went to the test firmware none of my manufacturer settings transferred to the mod. I re-entered them and it seems good.

Mike,

My numbers came from me running the Case Analyzer when I received the mod.

Cheers,
Steve

case thermals will vary, as i'm sure you already know, from mod to mod AND environment to environment. depending what your actual room temp is will come into effect. if there is a breeze hitting it. if your mod is laying down or standing upright (venting holes being blocked or not). 

my ni200 crown coils always read around .17 - .176 ohms on any of my 200's.

i have noticed my old dna 40 small screen, the version before 'atty lock', sometimes likes to refine up an ohm.

my two pennys.....

Ok so scratch my post about case thermals. I am running windows 10 and when I use the test firmware the data is not being uploaded to the mod. I rolled back to 10-21-2015 and everything went back to to normal

[retird]

Works just great with Win-10 here...no lost data.... maybe you are missing something during the update process...when the test update was just out I installed/uninstalled/installed EScribe and the firmware update three separate times on two separate DNA200's without a hitch.

Hello,

I'm Manfred from Austria, this is my first post (please excuse my English, it's not my mother tongue and may sound funny sometimes ;-) ).

Initial situation: 2x Wismec Reuleaux DNA200, Parallels 11 and Windows 7 on a MacBook Pro 2011, running OSX Yosemite 10.10.5.
Escribe 1.0.35.2 works without problems. As soon as I install 1.0.38, 1.0.39 or 1.0.41 (regardless if fresh install or over a previous version), the curves under the "Materials"-Tab look like this:

   

Furthermore, after connecting a divice and downloading its settings, I can upload changed settings to the mod without any problems but every time I try to "Restore Defaults" on the "General"-Tab in 1.0.38, 1.0.39 or 1.0.41, I get:

 


I would appreciate any help!

Greetings
Manfred

Manfred, the materials curve must always be increasing like the message states. If you check all your materials, they should look similar to your top jpg. Find the offending material curve and delete it.

[retird]

Try removing the Nickel200 wire from the device (click on red X below the Material on Device Box).   Then add the Nickel200 wire to the device again.

[klickman]

Hello Wayneo and retird, thank you for your quick replies!

The screenshot that shows the invalid curve was taken right after installing 1.0.38, 1.0.39 or 1.0.41, even before a mod was connected. Of course, I removed all curves (each of them in the "Materials on Device"-section was damaged) and replaced them with correct curves. I also connected a mod and downloaded the settings from it. Both worked fine and the curves looked ok. But as soon as I try to "Restore Defaults" I get the error message shown on my last screenshot and the curves appear damaged again.
So there are two reasons causing these invalid curves: First the install of 1.0.38, 1.0.39 or 1.0.41, second the attempt to "Restore Defaults".

[retird]

How about going to device manufacturers web site and installing their latest firmware...  http://www.wismec.com/product/reuleaux-dna200/

[Wingsfan0310]

This is just a guess on my part. Manfred (kickman) said he is from Austria. Could it be a problem in the language of the PC not being English? I'm not sure if I'm saying this correct but I seem to remember someone having to switch the language to English for a problem they were having. Just a guess and I could be out in left field on this guess. I'm in the USA and haven't had any issues updating (but I'm also on a PC using Windows 10)

Cheers,
Steve

Hello Manfred,

I have been able to reproduce your bug. It will be fixed in the next version. Thank you!

James

[klickman]

Hello and thanks for your thoughts!

@retird: I have tried this firmware, without success.

@Wingsfan0310: I have seen this topic recently but as far as I can remember, switching the language was no solution.

Here is a small screencast that shows the installation of version 1.0.41 on a clean Windows 7-System, which has never seen Escribe before. You can see the broken curves right after installation - even before any device has been connected. So i do not think that this is a matter of firmware:

Hello James,

I saw your reply too late, I am very sorry.
Thank you very much!!

Howdy Manfred. Try this version. It works for me: https://www.dimensionengineering.com/software/SetupES_2016-02-27.exe

Hi James,

Is this something all us early adopters should try or just people that had that specific problem? I'm only asking because I noticed the first post isn't updated with this version yet.

Thanks,
Steve

Hi James,

thanks a lot for your efforts! I played a bit around and there are good news and twoo new bugs. ;-)

1. The curves after installing Escribe are now correct.
2. "Restore Defaults" works flawlessly.

But:
The first bug is, that each of previously deleted "Available Materials" will reappear on the next start of Escribe.
After deleting:
 
After restarting Escribe:
 

The second bug is, that adding new materials will fail. Klicking on the "Open Material"-button causes this error:
 

I am sorry that the message is in German but maybe you know nonetheless what this error stands for:  Error.txt     

Greetings
Manfred

[James]

Manfred: Try the download again. I've updated it and it will fix the "Open Material" bug. As for those curves, EScribe automatically adds the built-in curves (Ni 200, SS 316, and Titanium 1) on startup.

Wingsfan: It's just a bug fix (and it's a weekend ). Up to you. I'll put it on the first post when I'm more sure it's correct and complete. 2016-02-12 was the big update and these are all minor corrections, in this case affecting those for whom the decimal separator is a comma.

[klickman]

Hello James,

thanks a lot, as I can say it works perfectly now!

Just a small feature request - it would be fine to be able to enter more than 5 characters in this field:
 

Thank you again and have a nice weekend! ;-)
Cheers
Manfred

I've posted up 2016-02-29. If you are European and EScribe has been giving you "not one to one" errors for some .ecig files and/or Restore Defaults, this update finally fixes it.

[jurdanas]

Thank you James.
Location - Europe, Lithuania, Windows 7 - English (US), support non-Unicode - Russian cyrillic, CURVES WORK GOOD, no problems.

[klickman]

James, thank you very much for your great support!

[bluemustangs]

Sorry to be "that guy" but I am brand new here and cannot for the life of me figure out how to make my own post. Do I need to make a certain amount of replies first or what?
