@lostmsu do you remember what serial protocol was used?

@lukescott no, I do not. Judging by the year, I might have used the new WinRT APIs to communicate with the Bluetooth device.

@lukescott well, guess what, you are in luck. I dug up the full project: https://github.com/lostmsu/Xrcise

@lostmsu Thank you so much!

Oh I thought your program was serial. It's bluetooth. Dang it. My console is non-bluetooth version :(.

This is a serial version I stumbled across: https://gist.github.com/daeken/a3d3c4da11ca1c2d2b84

Trying to get data over Serial. It's not standard. (My model is TR5000). So far I have discovered pin 2 is COM ground. RS232 COM is pin 5, and RS422/RS485 is pin 1 (I think?). It appears 12 volts powers the console on pin 1. I don't have an Oscilloscope so guessing which pin is what beyond COM with a multimeter is tricky. I was able to find out COM was pin 2 because I took apart the console and did a continuity test on USB ground.

@lukescott this connects to the console via the Bluetooth. The console has to be plugged in. I believe the Bluetooth receiver is in the console.

@lostmsu Yeah, sadly mine doesn't have bluetooth. The refreshed GlowUp versions is Retro without bluetooth or the new Omnihub with bluetooth. When I opened mine up, there is a spot for the bluetooth module that's empty. I got mine second hand, so I didn't really have much choice in what console I got. Good deal.

@lukescott Will a RS-232 Tester work?

@icnocop sadly it’s non standard. Even if it was RS-232, the pins are not where they should be. I don’t have the tools needed to decode the signal. Sticking the wrong voltage on the wrong pins could cause damage. I was lucky to not cause any harm with the probing I did do. - I’m updating my retro console to the Omni hub and giving Bluetooth a shot.
