Elinchrom EL-Skyport Transmitter: Protocol and configuration
Thursday, July 11. 2013
Following my dissection of the EL-Skyport Transmitter and drawing its schematic, I have further analyzed how this remote flash trigger works. Since a Nordic nRF2402G is used for the transmitter's RF part, the datasheet was a good starting point. The PIC uses a SPI bus to control the RF IC. So I mainly wanted to find out:
- How is the nRF2402 configured and when is the configuration done
- Which data is send to the nRF2402 via SPI while in operation

Worst bread ever!
Sunday, July 7. 2013
If you are in Germany and want to try real good German bread, here's a hint: Don't ever go to Merzenich (bakery chain popular in Cologne and around)! They make the worst bread ever. They have a lot of bubbles in their dough which transforms into ugly big holes when the bread is baked. No chance to get marmalade or other spread on top. Also, the crust is always dark, burned, hard and tastes very bitter.
