GX Typhoon Closeup pics removed from Mounting Bracket-56K+

If, for some reason, MO doesn't want these pics up, that is up to them.

I find it a bit odd they don't have a User manual or anything up yet, but for those interested, here are some Macros of the Typhoon "naked"

Awesome! Thanks for spending time to take these pics.

It will let me know what mine will look like, as I just ordered a GX with the white pixels and blue background. It looked to be a bit easier to read (and unique) compared to the standard LCDs with black (pseudo-black).

Are your photos of the tri-color background GX or white/blue GX?

[Dgephri]

mine is the TriColor MCE version. I can slide colors from All Blue to All Green to All Red, to any mix in between.

I don't get a true white, but a very bright white/blue.

Dgephri: did you manage solder the USB header? I wonder how difficult it would be to reach the back side of the PCB?

[Dgephri]

nope, when I tried the Mini 5pin, it worked just perfectly, and using a leftover cable and crimping the motherboard end was a lot easier to test than soldering the 4pins onto the MO unit.

However, the solder points look empty, so putting a pin in there should be easy unless it could short anything on the inside.

I didn't separate the two PCBs, so I don't know if there is a chance of shorting out the guts.

Regular 4 wire USB to motherboard works perfectly, so I'm not complaining.

And I was lucky to get a little internal to external adapter cable.
