This is the UCM/Pi I'm trying to upgrade. ...   Monday Mar 11th, 2024 04:11 pm

The UCM/Pi was connected to the UCM/Eth03 with the firmware cable. Do you mean that I should connect the dead UCM/Pi to the existing UCM/Pi? ...   Sunday Mar 10th, 2024 12:38 pm

Chiu, is this project now dead? There is no activity on the Discord channel, and Matt has not posted for the last year or so. ...   Sunday Feb 25th, 2024 11:18 am

I don't think the latest version of the UCM_Pi OS software requires access to the alphawerk.co.uk domain. The GitHub page is still available at https://github.com/alphawerk/ucmpi_os ...   Sunday Feb 25th, 2024 11:14 am

I posted this on Discord, but as it seems to be dead over there I will post it here as well. I have setup a ...   Friday Sep 8th, 2023 08:31 am

You are correct, my main PC has two network interfaces. If I disable the second one, the CS Manager finds the ETH03 no problem. Thanks! ...   Thursday Sep 7th, 2023 08:25 am
