To see the led working was all it took to get the project rolling again! This evening was very productive and we got the serial/usb to work. My son had all drivers for it already written up and ready to go. So now we have text in the serial terminal! Very helpful when debugging other stuff.
Like the joystick ports that I continued with. Everything looked fine and I could read from the VIA registers, but all I got was zeros. I tried several things to see if it was the VIA not working. Until I took a closer look in to the schematics… And realized I had forgot to put the pullups on the inputs! DOH!
So, there is another update on the stage3 board! But HEY, thats why we do it like that!
