Sequre S20 Support #1766

Open KosVas91 opened 1 year ago

KosVas91 commented 1 year ago

Sequre S20 with C115 tips is a great option for precision soldering. As I understood @Ralim is in touch with Sequre to add IronOS support for S60 model. Any chances to add S20 support too?

From Sequre S60 issue, it seems that Sequre don't want to help out community to port IronOS to their devices, thus I think this will be same too. So, for proper support, we will need minimally reverse engineered datasheet.

#1546 (comment)

May be I am wrong, but the comment you mentioned is specifically about providing stock firmware for S60, not about their support in porting IronOS in general.

Not only, it seems they don't respond to any email at all.

not about their support in porting IronOS in general.

Usually (but not necessarily) getting official firmware is one of the steps to port custom firmware (by reversing the original one to see how it's done). So, in a way (by association), not providing official firmware to the community means full lack of desire to support the community in its porting free & open source projects on a company's hardware. :(

Sequre has published stock firmware for S20 (and also for S60) some time ago: https://sequremall.com/blogs/sequre-product-firmware-upgrade/s20-firmware-upgrade

Hey guys I noticed that the S60 is supported. Too bad I need the S20, so I got it instead.

How did the S60 get support? Reveng, convincing or something else? Can we pull off the same thing for the S20?

All of the above? 🤣 Sequre sent me a S60 unit and partially redacted schematics (which also had errors 😁). So I used that as a base to get roughly going and then it was reverse engineering from there. S60P used a community member contributed PD driver and new load address offsets. S99 is being reverse engineered at the moment in #1920. T55 was reverse engineered (I bought a unit). Sequre has ignored my emails to ask for schematics for S60/T55/S99/S20. I don't have the time to keep hounding them or play email tennis at this point in time.
