JQ6500 Audio File Installation Guide

This guide explains how to install the required audio files onto your JQ6500 audio module for use with the Chelonian Access system.

Required Files

The system uses 6 distinct audio files for different states:

Connect the JQ6500
- Remove the JQ6500 module from your Chelonian Access board
- Connect it to your computer via a USB-TTL adapter:
  - TX → RX
  - RX → TX
  - GND → GND
  - VCC → 3.3V

Install the Download Tool

# Linux
git clone https://github.com/NikolaiRadke/JQ6500-rescue-tool.git
cd JQ6500-rescue-tool
make
sudo make install

Prepare Audio Files
- Copy the audio files from docs/assets/audio to a working directory
- Ensure files are in MP3 format and properly named:
  - 001.mp3 - Access Granted
  - 002.mp3 - Access Denied
  - 003.mp3 - Error
  - 004.mp3 - Programming Mode
  - 005.mp3 - Programming Success
  - 006.mp3 - Programming Failed

Upload Files

# Linux
jq6500-tool -d /dev/ttyUSB0 -f /path/to/audio/files/*.mp3

For Windows users, an alternative GUI tool is available:

After installation, reconnect the JQ6500 to your Chelonian Access board
Power up the system
Test each sound:
- Present a valid card (Access Granted)
- Present an invalid card (Access Denied)
- Enter programming mode (Programming Mode sound)
- etc.
