RE: [Mp3elf-users] Help! elf not working

SourceForge Headquarters 1320 Columbia Street Suite 310 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hi Tim,

LCD not showing anything is one issue, the elfServer config looks like
another.

I'll deal with elfServer config first:

	<MP3elf Name = "wilko" ID = "00.30.1B.XX.XX.XX">
	you need to put the MAC address of your TINI in there.
	Also make sure you have a file "default.m3u" with full filename path to
your MP3 files.

LCD issue: The LCD shows stuff while the MP3elf is booting, so you should
see something regardless of the server config problem.

Check that changing the contrast knob actually changes the contrast. If not,
probably that is a problem.

Also, hopefully you followed the instructions about putting the LCD
connector the other way around (silkscreen is wrong) - it's mentioned in
Chris' assembly instructions PDF. That's happened to one or two people.
Normally shouldn't kill anything.

Regards,

Alastair

Subject: [Mp3elf-users] Help! elf not working

I've followed all of the directions, configured the TINI, put the JV onto
the TINI, programmed the PIC with the elf firmware, edited the TINI startup
file, installed the elf server and all of the additional JAR files ....
but when I start the server it doesn't appear to recognize the TINI on the
network.

My elf appears dead (the LCD doesn't show anything) and the server looks
like it's just waiting for an elf to connect.

Any help would be *greatly* appreciated.
-- Tim.

INSTALLATION DETAILS:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Using Elf v2
Elf network using DHCP
Server PC network using DHCP
The MAC address in the config is the address for my Server PC (it is entered
correctly on the PC) NOTE: using the the MAC for the Elf didn't appear to
change anything.
