Warning(disclaimer): Sorry, but target of this project right now - only research & proof of feasibility. I can't debug hardware which i don't have. Some hardware(devices) may not work, from different reasons. In the case of problem i suggest to check wires & use $3 CY7C68013A logic analyser. Sometimes i can help.
