Awesome work. It's a shame that it _always_ has to be reverse engineering. Vendors do not seem to understand there's value in providing adequate documentation

Awesome work.
It's a shame that it _always_ has to be reverse engineering.
Vendors do not seem to understand there's value in providing adequate documentation. Devices that have the docs or have been reversed get consistently selected and/or recommended over the alternatives.
- _trampeltier 3y agoI also don't understand it, why comoanys don't do it. So i was very (positiv) surprised, when with the adapter for my Hioki DT4281, a manual came along with all the serial command. https://www.hioki.com/download_file/9752/3 https://www.hioki.com/download_file/9752/3
- matheusmoreira 3y agoYeah, it's a real shame. I emailed a laptop manufacturer once and asked for documentation, they gave me a link to Ubuntu help pages. Why are they so reluctant to provide documentation? It makes no sense, they have nothing to lose and everything to gain. They don't need to spend money supporting stuff, they just need to not get in the way.
- redeeman 3y agobrymen multimeters are great, and they also will provide protocol documentation. seriously, they are WAY better hardware than uni-t, basically fluke-level quality, but at much lower prices
