N64 freak Posted June 2, 2019 Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 Since the Sickmods site has vanished i thought it might be worth saving the information from there open source projects. Having a backup of the user manual, source code and the shematic can't hurt. So here are the files for anyone who wants to build a couple Xerc2s. And for anyone who wants to build them i uploaded my panelized Layout here: Xerc2 Panelized Have fun building and using the Xerc2 ir mod!

N64 freak Posted June 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 I added the link so people can order my Design if they wan‘t to but i‘m not really interested in putting out the Gerber files. You can of course design your own boards and order wherever you want. This is just an offer. And ~160 Xerc2 boards per order is a lifetime supply anyway.

N64 freak Posted June 2, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2019 Lol, no business ruined i wouldn‘t throw out the shematic and stuff if i wanted to make a business of it. @TEK Nemesis Your free to ask someone to make a design or draw one up yourself. Just an offer from my side for people who are lazy or like my design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

N64 freak Posted June 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 @TEK Nemesis No the design should still be there. Just added my front underglow led stripes so it might have been temporily unavaylable while i uploaded the other file. Should work fine now i just tested the link! There's now also a Panel full of 1.6 LPC rebuild PCBs and the mentioned front underglow PCBs for anyone interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lizardpcs Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 Is anybdy able to help with a issue I am having. I have had some boards made up and have assembled them and programmed an Attiny45. But when I attached the boards to a Xbox the lights pulse like they should but the remote does nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you need anything else let me know and I might have it or be able to find it for you. I don't think I have any board files, though I did see an OSHpark version floating around a while back so someone must have them. Hope these help someone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaosEngineer Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 Yeah, that's the problem no one seems to have backed up the source files from http://svn.sickmods.net/. The Wayback Machine has the directory listing and a couple of the files, pulsevu2.aps and startuptest.c, but not all of the files listed below: pulsevu2 - Revision 2: / builds/ defines.h gpl.txt interrupts.c luts.h modes.h pulsevu2.aps pulsevu2.c pulsevu2.h scilab/ startuptest.c startuptest.h stddef.h Powered by Subversion version 1.5.1 (r32289). or the builds/ files (only the listing of the files) or the scilab/ files (nothing captured): pulsevu2 - Revision 2: /builds .. pulsevu2_v1000.hex pulsevu2vx_v1000.hex smfader_v1000.hex Powered by Subversion version 1.5.1 (r32289). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D1 = ??? couldn't find that in the original schematic Not sure about the packages used in the gerbers, but I think that the diode D1 is a 1N4148 as seen on this OGXbox post. It allows the xerc to be connected to the ir receiver in the xbox dvd playback kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I guess I can use the spare IR Receiver I have to salvage the IR unit and wire it directly to IR+/-/d - I just need to figure out which leg is which Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Localhorst86 Posted August 7, 2020 Report Share Posted August 7, 2020 has anyone built one of these? I just programmed the attiny, I built the board and connected it to the xbox. WHen I plug the xbox into the wall, I get the pulsing LED which tells me the system is working. However, I can not get the xbox to power on using the remote. When I enter programming mode, the LED also never flashes. I've tried two different IR receivers (I desoldered the one from the xbox DVD playback kit and another one from a RC6 receiver I used back in the day.) with the same result. any ideas what might be wrong?
