How to update TMPro2 hardware

TMPro2 hardware update instruction:
Why do you need update TMPro2 hardware?
Because you will get these extras after you get TMPro box updated:
Special place for wedge shape ceramic transponder for easy fixing during reading and programming operations.

Special place for round shape glass transponder for easy fixing during reading and programming operations.

Rubber feet for stable fixing on worktable.

How to step by step update TMPro2 hardware?
1.Get update set.update set is shown on picture below.

2.Open your old TMPro box and remove main board from it.

3.Solder pads of red antenna to antenna wires.It doesn`t matter which wire to which antenna pad will be soldered.

4.Insert round 8-pin connector into hole of new box.

5.Screw and tighten round connector.

6.Pass antenna thru hole.

7.Place antenna in hole and firmly press on left and right side till you hear “CLICK” sound.

8.Screw main board on down cover using 2 of screws from old box.

9.Here is how box looks before final assembling.

10.Place down cover and fix it in the groove from USB connector side (back side of box).

11.Firmly press on both sides of other end of cover (front side of box) till you hear ‘’CLICK” sound from both sides.

12.If box is assembled correctly,it must look like this.

13.Your new TMPro box is ready for use.Enjoy.

How to rework TMPRO2 PCB for better EEPROM support

Look here: How to add an external interface cable to your TMPro2 box to read/write all of serial eeproms 24cXX, 25cXX,93cXX, S29190, X5328 that are used with TMPro2 modules. Reading/writing of eeproms is a free function. You do not need eeprom programmers anymore.
External interface cable contains 2 connectors - male and female and 8 wires - blue, red, brown, green, yellow, orange, white and grey.
The male connector you have to fit into your box and to solder wires to TMPro2 PCB. How to do this is explained further in this help.

The female connector is for attaching to the memory devices - eeproms, MCU etc.

Connection diagrams for different eeproms you can find in HELP menu of TMPro2 software. External interface is also used for modules 108,128 and 131.

One of main advantages of the eeprom interface is reading/writing of 93cXX eeproms. The process is fully automated - NO NEED TO THINK which settings are correct - x8 or x16.

Just connect eeprom, press read memory device button, select memory device and OK and reading is done.
If content of file is known to the software, it will jump to corresponding module and you can make chip. If you wish to save file with eeprom content, you can use SAVE FILE button right next to OPEN FILE button.

Same way you can write eeprom - load file in soft using OPEN FILE button, press write memory device button, select memory device and OK and writing is done. Writing process is with immediate verifying - soft reads byte and compare with value just written.

This way if writing procedure goes to end, eeprom is 100% written correctly.
Reading in-circuit is possible.TMPro2 test all of pins of eeprom or MCU before beginning of reading or writing.
When you try to read/write serial eeproms and you get LIFT PIN... message, short quartz of the immo box MCU and try read again.

If after shorting LIFT PIN... message continues to appear, you have either to lift from board pin(s),that are connected to corresponding wires, or to desolder eeprom and read on-board. Eeprom adapter for on-board reading will be released very soon.

At reading of MCU`s like ST72334 (module 128) or ST10F269 (module 131) it is also possible to get LIFT PIN message, but in this case it is not possible to short quartz, only way is to lift pin(s).LIFT PIN message shows colour of cable, corresponding to pin that must be lifted.

Example: Lift pin - Green means to lift from board pin, to which is connected green cable.

IMPORTANT: If you think that it is not easy for you to add cable interface and you are afraid not to damage your box,
You can send box to your dealer for adding cable. Please follow step-by-step carefully

1. Buyexternal cable from your  You can check it at picture –

2. WARNING:DONOT TRY TO LIFT COIL FROM YOU WILL DAMAGE COIL!!! –

3. Liftwith a sharp knife, the TMPro label –

4. Move it on left side and firmly press it to stick –

5. Usingscrewdriver unscrew left and right screws,located on back side –

6. Detachbottom cover from box as shown

7. Boxis opened and ready for adding cable –

8. TMPro2PCB`s are 2 types –

9. Solderwires of male connector to Take care not to make short between each two cables.

10. Aftersoldering you can see result –

11. Unscrewnutfrom male connector and put it in hole -

12. Screwnutto male connector and tighten it -

13. Putbottom cover At first put that end,which is closer to USB connector, after that firmly press other end,till you hear CLICK sound -

14. Screwback 2 screws –

15. Boxis Test reading of eeprom and enjoy :) –
