This update adds in the new machine generated LCD update code that saves power in both Ready To Launch and Time Since Launch modes.

It also refines the eeprom block generator tool with additional options, and adds a new tool for viewing eeprom blocks in human readable format.

Probably the only outwardly visible change is that the boring dash pattern displayed after power up has been replaced with an ostentatious disco sine wave flourish.

Other changes include:

  • Further refined documentation
  • Cleaned up folder structure and deleted some dead files
  • Switched around diagnostic pins so that "T" pin now shows clock time rather than "B" because "T"=Time is easier to remember, right?
    *Updated BOM to reflect the as-built flash LED part
    *Some updates to the PCB are also included, but these will be documented in a future PCB release. PCB work still in progress.
