yes, it resets automatically when placed into different console
sure, if everything done properly
of course
yes, you can proceed
After all my repeated questions and prompt confirmations, I removed the Rp2040 from a (100% working) switch and then installed the same chip in another switch.
Everything went perfectly.
When first started on the new console, the chip flashed for about 5/6 seconds alternately with blue and light blue colors and then turned green for a moment and... once turned off, the console showed the 'No SD Card' screen. I think it was the amount of time it took for the rp2040 to reset (after the 70 attempts it took).
Subsequent starts are instantaneous.
The donor console works perfectly without the chip installed, and the recipient has successfully completed all the various microsd installation and preparation procedures, including the boot, Keys, system backup phases.
No problems, everything perfect.
By the way, since a new awg36 wire arrived in the meantime, I was able to test it.
My impressions are positive, the cable is very flexible and has a good quality, inside there are at least 16 copper filaments and has a very resistant sheath.
The only negative note is that the sheath is not self-stripping, this leads to a loss of cleanliness in the welding points, and more time for the welds themselves.
I am attaching photos of this work, I have also used enamelled wire on the mosfets with a slightly larger section, I am also attaching this.
At the base of the welds I applied small drops of B7000 glue to anchor the cable to the main board making everything more resistant to shocks (this console will go to my little grandchildren).
Sorry if the work is not clean, but I still have to figure out how to best use this cable, and I had to do everything in a short time, due to a backlog of work.
I hope to please by attaching some photos.
