SVGA Screen save to memory stick

w4sc-2
I’ve read the manual, tried at least 10 memory sticks (a very BAD location for the USB, some don’t fit because of VGA cable.

What is the secret?

I’d like to know too. I’ve never been able to get it to work. Sometimes it starts saving snd hangs up; sometimes it doesn’t start.

I believe he's talking about the P3 with SVGA option.

Re: SVGA Screen save to memory stick

Hello Jack, Vic,

P3 / SVGA.

I have tried at least 10 different USB memory sticks, sizes 64 MB (yes Mega, probably a USB 1.x?), 128MB, 4GB, …. through 64GB, all USB 2.0.  I have tried formatting NTFS, FAT32, and ExFAT.  On a couple of the sticks I get a “Cannot Initialize Device” error.  With most sticks nothing happens, no error.  Initiating a “Save”,  nothing happens.   All sticks work in Windows 10 machine with no problem.  I can see a RED LED on SVGA module flashing continuously.

I have reloaded all of the f/w today with no change.

The f/w loaded is the current available, and I have the latest utility.  The external display is 1920 x 1080 which I changed to last month.

Any help appreciated.

Ben W4SC

Pretty much my experience, except that I have had some cases in which
the transfer starts but then hangs up.

I have successfully captured a P3 screen image.

Elecraft P3 Utility > Capture Image Tab> Capture Image button - this captures the image then displays 'Bitmap copied to Windows Clipboard' - then paste from the Clipboard into Paint or other app and save in the image format of your choice.

My P3 manual states:  "Connector openings {16}, {17}, {21}, and {22} are provided for future use."   I think #22 is the USB port on the back of the P3.

Re: SVGA Screen save to memory stick

Mike,

Connector #22 is a USB port for a keyboard, not a general USB port.  It
is clearly labeled "KEYBOARD".

You're absolutely correct to note the labeling and I’ve always presumed that is the connector is only for a keyboard.  

However, the "P3 HIgh-Performance Owner’s Manual" (Revision F, 11 JAN 16 p.12) does have this description of that connector:

"KEYBOARD: USB jack for a USB keyboard or thumb drive (mass storage device). Apple keyboards are not supported at this time.”


So the wording does suggest compatibility with thumb drives, but from what I can tell there is no discussion in the “Owner’s Manual" about how to utilize a thumb drive.  Perhaps this may be a feature that was never actually developed.

Hi Don,

Yes, subsequently I saw the illustration with that port labeled ‘keyboard’.

I was looking at the P3 manual, and not the SVGA option manual.

The P3 Utility is the only way I’ve found that will do a screen capture - but always willing to learn something new.

All,

There is a selection (SVGA Ubmp)  in the SVGA menus that will, according to the P3 manual,  save a bmp file to a memory stick.  Ref pp 43, 33 in the P3 Owners Manual  Rev H1.

USB hubs were also not supported. Since all Apple keyboards have
a builtin hub, to ease connection of a mouse, the lack of hub
support knocked them out too.

Re: SVGA Screen save to memory stick

k6mkf
Seems to have been implemented in P3 firmware - see:

https://ftp.elecraft.com/P3/firmware/p3fwnotes.rtf

P3SVGA 01.16 / 02-26-2013 says:

"Added display of an onscreen message when a USB device (keyboard or MSD) is attached and detached."

I wonder if this message is appearing when a flash drive is inserted in the P3 USB port.

Re: SVGA Screen save to memory stick

Nr4c
Use the P3 menu to set one of gibe sict buttons to this feature and when you wish to save a screen, just tap the button.

Don’t have a P3 anymore but this worked for me. Utility save only saves to computer file. The button saves to USB stick.

Re: SVGA Screen save to memory stick

Clay Autery-2
In reply to this post by k6mkf
I've done it on my P3 w/ SVGA kit installed.... many times.  I have a
screensaver set and I take captures of RFI.

Haven't done it in a while, so forgive me if I don't write a tutorial.

But it most definitely works if you have SVGA installed and updated
firmware.
