Can someone that has their E-Trac handy send me some patterns? What I would like are the following 4 files:
1. A pattern for a wide open screen (no disc at all)
2. A pattern for a fully discriminated screen (all black)
3. A pattern with a discrimination of 1 - xx (all ferrous 1 locations disc'ed out for every conductive value)
4. A pattern with a discrimination of xx - 1 (all conductive 1 locations disc'ed out for every ferrous value)
You can either post them here or email them to me - send me a PM and I'll send you my email address. I appreciate the help as I can't set up my E-Trac in the living room at the moment (read: wife watching ;-)

) with the X-1 from my old XS and I've started saving several patterns to understand the .ptrn file format. I have a pretty good handle on it now, but there are a few bytes I'm not sure about - either checksums, garbage, or maybe some other info that they're putting in there. I'm trying to reverse engineer their thought process. If anyone wants to work with me on this please PM me. Thanks, Erik
