0001-22AUG05Technical SupportClosedWould I be able to ship you my pc, 2.5 power controller, and inverter and pay you to do soldier work?
0001-30AUG05Technical SupportClosedI want to use the CarPC EZ 2.5 controller with a digital inverter that needs to have the power button pressed for approx. 3-4 seconds to turn it on. How can I configure it properly? Thank you.
0001-16SEP05Technical SupportClosedFront panel On/off + reset+ Hdd + led on problem. I have a dell pc (opitplex) The power control panel is very hard to reach. The motherboard does not have any pins where i can join my own on/off + reset switch. Dell have used a ribbon cable from the front panel to the motherboard. Do you have any device that will turn on the pc from my switches that i have mounted on the car dash? PC is powered by an 300 inveter and i am plannig to use "CarPC EZ Power Controller v2.5 (SDC) NEW" to control the power. Thank you. Monjoor
0001-19SEP05Technical SupportClosedhi. i have a old pc and a flat screen monitor. i wanted to put both of them in my jetta. i know that i need certian things to have it work with my car, such as the converter....standby chip....and possibly the extra battery to keep the pc running durring the car start. i would like to use the pc as the main sound driver. i'm pretty good at hooking up my electronics but this is something i have never done and would appreciate some help so i can hook this up with as little complecation as possible. thanx
0001-18OCT05SalesClosedI am very interested in buying the complete car pc but have some questions. How do I power the pc? Do I need to by a inverter or is this included? what else do I need to buy to work with my pc? Thanks for your help!
0001-24OCT05SalesClosedHello, Can you tell me what the difference is with your coleman inverter so it works with your power controllers? I want to know why I need to buy your inverter instead of another brand one. Thanks, Rob Whiteside rob@robville.ca +1 (705) 761-5661

0001-13DEC05Technical SupportClosedHi i want to create a car pc and i was wondering what i need can i use normal pc parts and just get a psu that will run off a normal 12 volt car battery or what please can you let me know as soon as possible thanks From mark
0001-18DEC05Technical SupportClosedHi thanx for the reply.. but still my question is the same... Regading the AMP and Inverter sequence... its ok Fair enough but Why is it that the SDC BOOTS the PC and not Not wait for my singnal via Pc ON/ Off switch to boot up..... I ask this question Cos if i dont want to turn my PC ON then how do i go about it since the SDC is still booting it for me. And if it is the SDC that boots the PC what use is it to have the PC ON / OFF switch ( for booting ) that connects to the 2 pin connector on the SDC next to the 11 pin connecter Thanx Hi my PC config is ... Via MINI ITX, P4 2.6 Ghz I am using a PW-200-M power supply by MINI-BOX to power the PC and NOT an INVERTER.. Now i am wiring up the controller CarPC PRo 2.4 ( 4 LEDs) as per the manual...( no error ) Everthing is fine to begin with. Only 1 LED ON next to the 11 pin connector. Now when I turn on the Ignition rest of the LEDs also turn ON ( rest 3 ) Here the problem starts.On turning ON the accessory key the computer AUTO boots with out pressing the On/Off switch. Y is this happening that the pc is booting on its own.. I am not using an INVERTER so i have left the wires marked 4 unused ( also the wires marked 5 for AMPs is also not used ) .... How can i correct this booting problem... Also when i am NOT using the INverter and AMP why are the LEDs ON ? PLs can u let me know ASAP cos now i am all done but for this controller thanx for ur help in advance
0001-22JAN06Technical SupportClosedHello ! I just sent to adress: tgman17@msn.com by PayPal 18$ US. This is a payment for PIC Controller and Volt Regulator. Please send it to me: Vladimir Miloslavine 164 Olivier West Street Chateauguay, Quebec, Canada J6J 1N6 Let me know when you ship my package. Thank you very much ! Regards Vladimir Miloslavine <---Previous Post---> Hello ! Thank you very much for the fast answer. I just did a check - with input voltage +13.5V after regulator (middle pin) I have 5.6 volts, when I have +15V at input than on the regulator output I have +6.8V volts. So probably it looks like the regulator is dead as well (at least does not hold the level in a right way). Of course I did this check with PIC removed. So you was 100% right about dead regulator. How much I need to pay you for a new chip and new regulator ? How should I pay this amount ? Is PayPal good for you ? Thank you very much for your answer and help. ----------------------Cut------------------------ You will also be getting the latest code update, and there is a special procedure introduced in this version to config the voltage monitor for greater accuracy which we can walk you through if you have an accurate power supply. ----------------------Cut------------------------ This is great innovation :) I have an accurate power supply so I will be happy if you will provide me with the procedure for the accurate ajusting of the volt monitor. Regards Vladimir Canada P.S. My mailing adress is: Vladimir Miloslavine 164 Olivier West Street Chateauguay, Quebec, Canada J6J 1N6 <--Previous Reply--> Hi ! Recently I bought a CarPC Pro v.2.5d - Power Controller from the MP3CAR.COM. It works great but I killed it by mistake (I connect +18 volts on its input instead of +13.8 maximum) and the voltage level on PIC Microchip was around +8.8 volts. Nominal maximum is 5.5volts. I am an Electronic Engineer. I checked all components and looks like I killed my PIC Controller on board. Also with no schematic it is little bit difficult to chack all components but the rest parts - transistors and all stuff are looking good. Is it possible to buy from you only PIC Controller with software programmed of course. Because I can not spend another 100$ on controller :( I like your controller and it worked for me more than 1 month perfectly ( I am in Canada and winter here is very cold so I was happy to have such function as temp sensors). But in one moment I did some ajustments at home and by mistake I connect +18.5V on the input instead of +12 - 13.5 volt. Now it looks like controller trying to ! start but immdiatly shuted down. Also I can not come in to Config mode - this means that PIC is some how dead :( So if it is possible to buy from you just Programmed PIC Controller for version 2.5D of CarPC Pro v.2.5d - The Most Advanced ATX Power Controller than tell me the price and the way of how to pay you. Thank you in advance. I hope you will understand my situation. Would it be not PIC controller, I could fix it with no problems. But in case of PIC I can not have the program code so I am asking you about help. Thank you in advance. Regards Vladimir Canada vinzer@videotron.ca
