I was not able to decode the signal without errors using the fastest transfer speed. Therefore I had to change the blinker FW to the slower speed seetings. Using the AF LED I was then able to get a clean signal and after about 5 hours the firmware was dumped and decoded without errors. The resulting dump can be found here:

Important: The first dump was wrong, because the starting adress for firmware in the Ixus Models is 0xFF810000. I will therefore have to restart the dump and will post the files hopefully tomorrow.
Apparently the dump is still buggy ... hold on...
 

Revision as of 16:42, 20 January 2008

Canon Powershot Digital ELPH SD450 / Digital IXUS 55 / IXY Digital 60

This is a 5.0 megapixel compact camera that runs the DiGiC II image processor chip. It may be possible for the CHDK firmware to be ported over to it.

Firmware Version

Canon DIGITAL IXUS 55
P-ID: 30FF PAL

Firmware Ver GM1.00B
No error
Aug 3 2005   13:53:21

Camera ID for pakwif

30ff hex = 12543 decimal
01000000 hex = 16777216 decimal = version 1.0.0.0

So:

pakwif PS.FIR DISKBOOT.BIN 12543 16777216

Useful Constants

/* LED addresses */

  1. define LED_PWR 0xc02200E8
  2. define LED_GREEN 0xc02200D8
  3. define LED_RED 0xc02200DC
  4. define LED_YELLOW 0xc02200E0
  5. define LED_AF_RED 0xc02200EC

Firmware Dump

Version 1.00B will be extracted using the "standard" Blinker method. I used a standard phototransistor and basically the following circuit:

SC Blinker Receiver

Active Soundcard Firmware Blinking Receiver

I was not able to decode the signal without errors using the fastest transfer speed. Therefore I had to change the blinker FW to the slower speed seetings. Using the AF LED I was then able to get a clean signal.

Important: The first dump was wrong, because the starting adress for firmware in the Ixus Models is 0xFF810000. I will therefore have to restart the dump and will post the files hopefully tomorrow.
