Denver IR-135 serial data

I had planned to go do some mowing today, but it's grey and was drizzling earlier. The nice sun and warmth and 14°C from the previous days is currently a blah 11°C.
Okay, it's eleven in mid February, not bad, but it's not like it was earlier in the week. Meh.

I dragged some of the cut branches from the old willow tree down to the wood graveyard, and Anna was out. I had to give up on things because Anna climbed an oak, jumped across to the barn roof, and then wandered all over because there was no obvious way down.
I put up a ladder, but it took a lot of coaxing before she decided to use it.

The grass wasn't tall enough to necessitate a mow if it wasn't favourable conditions, so I left it. Came inside and fiddled with the internet radio instead.

This time I took it apart completely. Here's the back of the main board.

Internet radio main board
Internet radio main board.

I've already described this, so a quick recap. Weird metal thing at the top is the WiFi/Bluetooth antenna. Below that, an ESP32 microcontroller. Below that, to the left, PSRAM and to the right, Flash. Carrying on down, an audio driver chip that translates I2S to audio signals. Over on the lower right an amplifier chip for the speaker, and going up (by the two white sockets) the LiPo charger chip.

On the other side, eight buttons. One rotary button. An IR receiver. And a socket that a ribbon cable for the LCD module plugs into. Here's a quick photo of the other side, but it's not particularly interesting.

Internet radio main board - front
Internet radio main board - front.

Notice the band of foam insulation around the board, to seal it tightly to the front panel to avoid rattling. That's also the reason for the foam pads between the button faces and the buttons themselves.

I used my oscilloscope to probe the four pin terminal that I thought was a serial port. It was, and my pin assignments were exactly correct.

I wanted to install a header there to plug into, but I've lost the components. It was a tiny bag of header strips (three?) in a big flat Amazon envelope. I suspect I may have tossed the envelope without realising the stuff was still inside. Yeah, I know...

So I did a quick DIY job with my soldering iron and sewing pins. So these pins are literally pins. ☺

Serial pins
Serial pins.

It looks a bit of a hack, and it clearly is. However it was possible to solder these in place from the component side of the board. If I was doing a proper solder job with a header block, I'd have to take the LCD assembly apart, and it looks fragile. So best to just leave it in place.

The left pin is ground. The next terminal is +3.3V but it's not necessary for a functional serial port so I left it empty. The second pin (or third terminal) is Tx from the ESP32, and the one on the right is Rx to the ESP32.

I hooked host Rx to ESP32 Tx (yellow) and the ground (brown) to a dinky little USB serial adaptor. Then spent a while tracking down what it was in order to find a driver for it. The textual identity "USB2.0 Ser!" wasn't much help, but the manufacturer (&1A86) and device ID (&7523) helped me find out that it was a CH340 serial convertor from QinHeng electronics (or a passable clone of it) to locate information and a Windows driver.

Then, I connected just the battery to the radio and pressed the power button.

Then the device ceased responding.

Oh, okay, I remember. I have to hold the power button down a bit.

Oh, FFS. Have to hold the power button down for a long time!

By now, the bootloader has started the system up and is ready to hand over to the system firmware. It was interesting that there was more output beyond the standard bootloader messages.......but not as interesting as what was to come.

Oh, and if you're wondering about the colours in the following dumps, the data output to the serial port includes ANSI style control codes for changing colour, namely <esc>[0;32m at the start of most lines (to set green text), and <esc>[0m at the end of those lines (to return to normal white text).
Some lines are in yellow (colour 33) and errors in red (colour 31).

Anyway, let's carry on. The radio pretty much offers a running narration of what it does. Which is interesting/amusing/mindblowing (delete as applicable).

The LCD backlight is turned on in the second line below. This is when it's possible to let go of the power button and the device will stay on.
Note that the timestamps begin now, but it's about two seconds more for the above stuff to happen.

This is now about three and a half seconds into the startup, plus two seconds for the bootloader start. So we're connected after about five and a half seconds.

So we're online, time to get the time, ping the mothership, and see if there's a station to resume playing.

Now we have a station to play, the radio goes through the process of changing station. This involves stopping the currently playing station, but this won't have any effect as there's nothing currently playing.
Somewhere along the way, we've requested the stream URL from SkyTune, so we can connect to it.

You'll notice, also, that we're connecting to SkyTune to check for firmware updates in the background and to see if the radio station data is up to date.

Okay, we're connected to BBC Radio 4 FM, set the correct UI screen and begin buffering. We're about ten seconds since startup.

For what it is worth, the current Radio Four FM URL is given as http://open.live.bbc.co.uk/mediaselector/6/redir/version/20/mediaset/audio-syndication-vlow/proto/http/transferformat/hls/vpid/bbc_radio_fourfm.

This redirects to http://a.files.bbci.co.uk/media/live/manifesto/audio/simulcast/nonuk/sbr_vlow/ak/bbc_radio_fourfm.m3u8 (note that it has detected my location and is providing a "non UK" URL).

And the m3u8 file gives the stream URL as http://as-hls-ww-live-akamaized.net/pool_904/live/ww.bbc_radio_fourfm/bbc_radio_fourfm.isml/bbc_radio_fourfm-audio%3d48000.norewind.m3u8.

This second m3u8 file (oh FFS!) then provides a list of relative URLs in the form bbc_radio_fourfm-audio=48000-261991568.ts, each part giving about 46KiB of data. You'll need a player capable of handling chunked streaming to keep getting the parts to assemble to form the data stream.
CustomRadioPlayer on Android doesn't handle this. Luckily Chrome (and my internet radio!) do. But it's a pain in the arse when so many other stations just provide a simple link to the stream.

Notice the timestamp of when buffering status is changed to playing. It has buffered about three seconds. My settings asked for a five second buffer.

After about twelve seconds, BBC Radio 4 FM begins playing.

When a station is connected, the radio provides some technical information on the screen like "AAC, 49Kbps, 48000Hz, 2 ch". After a few seconds, it switches to showing some information on the station, but since BBC doesn't include any embedded identity, it just shows the same information over again.

0:00:13.758 W (13758) SKYTUNE: skytuneReportStationStatus, codec=AAC, sampleRate=48KHz, bitRate=49Kbps

After a few seconds more, the backlight dims down to its low level.

0:00:20.688 I (20688) setBacklightFade: 3% in 2000mS

After about fifteen seconds, I press the power button. Since the radio is being powered from battery, it will switch itself off. The button is read a few times, it needs to be held to turn off. A simple press goes into sleep mode, but only if we're running from AC.

The first step of the shutdown is to stop the stream playing.

The messed up error message below (AACG_DECODER) is because the error message was triggered at exactly the same time as the "Stop helper" message, and it was in-lined in the middle of the message. Hmmm...

And that's it. The device is now in power down mode. I'm not exactly sure how the power button works, as the ESP32 is not in itself running because it can sit for days and not consume any power, and the first thing the ESP32 does is boot up. I'm guessing the chip goes into full power down mode, and the power button is somehow partially connected to the CHIP_PU pin to bring it back out of power down. And the reason why it acts a bit weird at the beginning is because the button pulls that pin high to start up the chip, but it's the firmware that latches the pin high (so the button can be released and the device will keep on running).

 

Well, not what I planned on doing today. But as usual, I didn't have anything specific planned, other than maybe mowing but, well, not this weekend. ☺

The dump is width-restricted because if not, or if given a percentage width, the entire width of the long lines (such as the Radio Four URL) would massively screw up the formatting. 
 
Visual coherence takes precedence, and the dump parts have scroll bars should you care to read all of the waffle. ☺
