Re: PACSAT Operating Instructions
Chris,
Please take a look at the email I sent out earlier. There is the possibility of a wiring error on the board with my white wire correction.
As for the connectors being longer, I never noticed that and these should be the same connectors I sent Burns and Chris. Burns say the MRAM is working after the wiring change and the AX5043s are working for Chris and Burns so not certain there.
Attached is the revised schematic. I'll have the Kicad files on github hopefully tomorrow. Have a couple of issues to deal with.

I sent this earlier, but just to Chris.
I got my board today and soldered on the connectors. Looking at the board now, I see that the connectors that came with the launchpad are around 1cm longer than the ones Jim supplied. I can't get the mram or ax5043s to be detected. I don't think it's making good contact on the connectors, for obvious reasons. Do I need to trim the old connector, or did I do something wrong?
I clipped the pins, and still no help. The power light by the serial connector works, and the serial port works. But the mrams and the ax5043's are not there.
I can't find the schematics in the git repository. PacSatDocs, I assume. I guess I need to start debugging to figure out what is wrong.
