VDIP1 USB module is base on VNC1L from FTDI Chip.
VDIP1 Pinout & Settings
- Set jumper to UART (J3=J4= 2+3), as shown by the Red dotted rectangular box in the picture.
- Default UART configuration: baudrate 9600bps, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity
| Pin 01 | 5V |
| Pin 06 | TXD (UART data output) |
| Pin 07 | Gnd |
| Pin 08 | RXD (UART data input) |
| Pin 09 | RTS (VNC1L can only accept incoming data when RTS is low) |
| Pin 10 | CTS (tie to Gnd to permanently request send data into VNC1L chip) |
| Pin 18 | Gnd |
| Pin 22 | !Reset (A reset pin) |

every command must end with 0x0D
VDIP1 Evaluation
1) When VDIP1 is powered up, it will send out the following text
-> “<CR>Ver 03.68VDAPF On-Line:<CR>”
2) When a thumdrive is connected
-> “Device Detected P2<CR>
No Upgrade<CR>
D:\><CR>”
3) When ascii command DIR<CR> is issued.
-> <CR>
SYSTEM~1 DIR<CR>
D:\><CR>
Short command evaluation (Hex data)
1) Check for presence of a disk
(when there is no thumbdrive plugged in)
Send -> 0D
Receive <- “No Disk<CR>”
(when there is thumbdrive plugged in)
Send -> 0D
Receive <- “D:\><CR>”
2) Switch to short command mode.
Send -> 10 0D
Receive <- 3E 0D (mean command accepted)
3) Repeat command checking for presence of a disk (in short command mode)
(when there is thumbdrive plugged in)
Send -> 0D
Receive <- 3E 0D
When thumbdrive is unplugged
Receive <- 44 52 32 0D “DR2<CR>” (slave device removed from port 2)
Receive <- 4E 44 0D “ND<CR>” (no disk)
(when there is no thumbdrive plugged in)
Send -> 0D
Receive <- 4E 44 0D “ND<CR>”
