Does anyone have any experience with the Augentix HC1703 chip?

Hi dhigginb, glad to know it works for you too!

If you have a chance to browse the files of your camera check the start.sh and tell me if you have "devmem" commands: on my cameras I found it 8 times at the lines 54, 55,56, 57, 573, 574, 581 and 582 (see AJ_HC1703L_Teardown/tmp/start.sh at main · Jalecom/AJ_HC1703L_Teardown) and I have no idea of the purpose. I can figure out a low level write to enable a device; maybe the whatchdog ?!? Maybe a GPIO configuration ?!?
Additionally if your start.sh is similar to mine, you can put in the debug_cmd.sh only the commands you need and exclude the unwanted ones. If you don't need to access the camera from outside your network, you can stop/block/prevent the comunication with the chinese server with the hosts file (see zsgx1hacks/readonlysd/hack/hosts.new at master · ant-thomas/zsgx1hacks). You can even kill the start.sh itself.

Hi Jalecom, long time no see, I apologise for the really long delay, i've had school and just completely forgot about this until a couple days ago, decided to try and hack the camera again, So I tried the script from the github repo, however i'm having an issue where nothing is happening at all from what I can see, no web ui, no ssh, no ftp, if I had to guess my camera does something different from the rest, and so I am trying to use UART, and I got a device which can read it, however my wires are quite thick which would mean it would take a while for me to even get them on the correct pin, and I was wondering, if you could potentially see any pins which could be the TX pin? (I posted an image of the wire for reference) I know in an earlier post you told me a potential one, but it's been a couple months and you might've learnt something since then. I do apologise for this, but it's just because I haven't had much experiences with circuit boards.1750364720851.png
