Tips, Tricks, Caveats
FEL mode
The Mele A1000 can be put into FEL mode by shorting jumper 11K1. This has not been verified to work on the M3.
Adding a serial port (voids warranty)
Device disassembly
When you remove 2 screws at top corners of the back side, you can simply take off the plastic cover.
Locating the UART
The Mele M3 has a 4 pin 2.0 pitch JST-PH connector available for its UART0 port (same as Mele A1000). This is the same as some 90s analog audio cables which ran from a CDROM to the sound card. More information is available at our UART howto.
