M10 lens detection

My M10 plus macro-adapter-m 14409 (with 'eyes') and 90/4 macro Elmar 11633: lens detection does not identify this setup, gives UNCODED result.  Auto lens detection cannot be selected, and this setup exists in the Manual M menu but cannot be selected either.  The adapter is 6 bit coded, codes and LEDs are clean, and it is detected on my M240.  Current firmware on the M10.  Anyone else have the same, or better, experience, with this lens/adapter setup ?  Thanks !

Sorry I misunderstood, thought you meant the new Macro-Adapter-M without goggles.

 

Is the old adapter with goggles coded - can you tell the code, please?

 

If you choose the Elmar 90/4 11633/11634 (or any other lens you like) from the list in the menu, the detection will work - but of course not automatically. Only if you choose the old Macro-Adapter M+90/4 14409 from the list, it will indicate „uncoded“.

 

Interesting to know that it works with the M (Typ 240). What is indicated by the M 240 for the old „goggled“ Macro-Adapter?

Known issue - a quick search of the forum reveals.

UliWer - see the previous post apparently a known problem, thanks adan !  Yes the goggles adapter is 6 bit coded.  The M240 shows 90/4 and the EXIF shows adapter and 90/4 information.  Yes the M10 can be manually selected for the 90/4, sure that will work fine now.
