On Saturday we stopped at Denton and Corsicana to charge. Denton: $4.62 during a 21 minute stop while we walked over to a nearby store to pick up some cold medicine for mom. Coriscana: $0.00 during our lunch stop. Don't know how long, this entry just shows 38 kWh @ 0.00/kWh. I made it home about 4:30.

On Friday we stopped at Bethany, Olathe, and Wichita to charge. Bethany: $1.68 during a 7 minute rest stop Olathe: $7.56 during a 38 minute meal break Wichita: $6.93 during a 38 minute light meal break We stayed the night once again at the Home 2 Suites in Midwest City, OK.

Thanks, I think I did that documentation when we were using still using Codesourcery, and just copied it over as I assumed Linaro was the same. However, I must have run into it with Linaro because in Draconian the 186 instances of char are all prefixed with either unsigned (167 times) or signed (19). I've updated the char section to: // signed char = 8 bit, 1 byte, range is -128 to 127 // char = 8 bit, 1 byte, range is 0 to 255 // unsigned char = 8 bit, 1 byte, range is 0 to 255 Draconian doesn't have that comment block in it, which would be why I didn't think to update it then. We returned from our trip last night. I have a bunch of stuff to catch up on this week, so most likely won't start in on Part 6 until next week.

We’re started our return trip this morning. Checked the stats on the car before we hit the road and saw that our energy usage jumped to 301 Wh/mi. That would be due to all the short trips and the need to heat the cabin up from freezing. We stopped again at La Crosse and Albert Lea, and are staying the night at in West Des Moines. We’re all quite tired and fighting a bug, so documentation for this part of the trip will not be as in depth. I looked up the following charging info in my Tesla account. La Crosse was $4.80 for a 20 minute charge. We stayed in the car. Albert Lea was $17.64 for 63 kWh while we ate lunch. Laws in Minnesota let Tesla charge for the actual amount of energy delivered, which is how it should be - could you imagine going to a gas station to buy “5 minutes of gas” only to get stuck at a slow pump? The hotel’s fairly new. They have 3 Tesla chargers and a J1772 mounted on 2 poles. When I plugged in I was only getting 10 miles per hour using one of the 2 Tesla chargers on the left pole, which meant 20+ hours to a full charge. When we got back from dinner I plugged into the 3rd Tesla charger, on the back side of the right pole, and am now getting 33 miles per hour. I let the lady at the desk know that the ones on the left might have been misconfigured.

Yes. Still out of town.

I used a macro to update AUDV0, when I didn't have the music or speech routines in place it did a couple dummy instructions that took the same amount of time and ROM space. You can probably find that in Draconian's source. You define the waveforms, so they can be anything. The music driver in SF2 even merges waveforms on the fly, such as combining a sawtooth with a sine. In DPC+ the waveforms are 32 bytes long. That's also the default size for BUS and CDFJ, though you can make them larger or smaller to better fit your needs. The 3 voices are merged together on the fly, only need to update AUDV0. A bankswitch scheme that could create 6 voice music using both channels is possible, but one hasn't been written to support that yet.

Awesome to see you've resumed work on Circus AtariAge! I'm still on vacation in Wisconsin, will check out line 516 and the comments when I return home. BUS, CDFJ, and DPC+ all startup in their last bank as all other banks have the potential to be filled with ARM code, which would make it tricky for them to contain 6507 startup routines. Other than updating AUDV0 on every scanline, Draconian won't help with creating music. I'll cover that eventually, though if you need it before I finish Collect 3 then I'll take a detour to cover music like I did for John and gamepad support.

Snow’s done falling for this visit. Small branch broke off a tree and landed in front of the car. You can see on the windshield where a heater keeps the front facing cameras cleared.

$39.82 so far in charging costs. Would have been closer to $50 as Corsicana was a meal break, but it was free for some reason. It wasn't free during my summer trip.

Fresh snow today! Snow’s forecasted for all day. Low tonight 21 (-6C) and low tomorrow 12 (-11C).

Use just ROL for dasm, the A is implied.

Glad I bought the all weather floor mats for the trip

Thanks! First line of first post is link to final version.

I don’t have a newer version. It’ll be a couple weeks before I can take a look.

Nephews 3 & 4 had Xmas $ burning a hole in their pockets, so I took them up to Stevens Point. Afterward we stopped at Mid-State Technical College to opportunity charge while having lunch at Polito’s Pizza. On the way back we stopped at Wisconsin Dairy State Cheese Company in Rudolph for some ice cream, squeaky cheese, and dairy fudge. Free for 15 miles of range in 38 minutes.

We’re averaging 291 Wh/mi on the trip so far, A definitely increase in energy usage vs the 243 Wh/mi we saw during the summer trip. Nephew #1 just moved into a house down the street from my brother. He has a welder outlet in his garage, also known as a NEMA 6-50. It’s a 240v 50 amp outlet, so would be faster to charge than the NEMA 14-30 240v 30 amp dryer outlet that my brother installed in his garage for me. I’ll need to order the 6-50 adapter before my next visit.

Drive east across Minnesota was into the wind causing us to use a bit more energy than expected, so we slowed down and followed a semi truck for a bit to conserve energy. Charging in La Crosse. This Supercharger site must be an older V2 one as the car reported it as having the 120 kW rate, of which we maxed out at 117kW. Tesla did a software update back in April that increased the charge rate to most V2 sites to 150 kW $9.24 for 245 miles of range in 53 minutes.

First stop of the day in Albert Lea, MN. When we were up over the summer this Supercharger site was under construction so we stopped at the older location with only 4 chargers. The car planned for a longer stop here to charge enough to make it to my brother’s place but we aren’t hungry yet so we did a rest stop instead and will add a charging stop in La Crosse, WI and have lunch there instead. $8.12 for 126 miles of range in 22 minutes. The 22 minutes is how long it took us to walk from the back lot to the travel center (with 4 restaurants), visit the restroom, grab some drinks and snacks, and walk back to the car.

Stopped for the night at a Best Western in Ankeny, IA. Great charging rate.

Rest stop in Bethany, MO $3.36 for 98 miles of range in 16 minutes. Like the prior stop, we could have left sooner but was showing things like my Jeda USB Hub to a Model 3 owner.

Rest stop in Olathe, KS located in the back corner of a grocery store. $5.52 for 166 miles of range in 23 minutes. We could have left sooner, but lost track of time talking with a new Model 3 owner.

Lots of heavy fog driving thru Oklahoma this morning. First stop of the day in Wichita. My Houston EZ Tag works on the toll roads in Kansas, which is quite nice. We met up with my cousin Erin and her family for brunch. Afterward I let her husband Aaron drive my 3, I foresee them getting one in the future. $9.35 for 223 miles in 1:29 (forgot to take after photo until after we resumed our trip, so miles is really higher and charge time was shorter)

When we left 2 other Teslas were there, both from Texas. Loved the plates on the one.

Out for dinner, a third Tesla showed up and is using the J1772 adapter. we decide to walk to Black Bear Diner for dinner to make sure the car gets charged tonight.

Stopped for the night at a Home 2 Suites in Midwest City, OK.
