Thanks to those of you who provided me with data and links to the FLW implementation which I have used as the starting point. I have to admit that I did not...
Hi all- I've been experimenting further with my IV-17 smartsocket and have run into an issue. I'm hoping someone might have an idea on solving it. I have been...
Just to confuse things further...As I played around with it further, I am occasionally able to get the effects on tube 3 to work, but after switching the text...
... Okay Dylan, no problem Can you say what commands yoiu are sending (exactly), in the order they are being sent, together with any pauses in between them. ...
A better quality video at last ! This is the effect running at it's slowest speed, taking about 20 seconds to complete each transition. The fastest speed...
Ok, I had some trouble reproducing it initially but I figured out what is happening. I'm not sure if there is any way to override this behavior, but at least...
... Okay I see what you mean. In the version of software you have that is the default behaviour. unchanged digits do not have a transition applied because the...
... Out of curiosity, is there a way to ... Just another thought Dylan, you could try sending a blank character to the digit you wish to change and very...

As a new member, I have found it a bewildering task to determine if any PCBs are for sale and by who. I'm interested in the boards that can run IV-4/IV-17...
... Glad you decided to ask the question David ! I have several kits made up and about another 25 sets of the current version of PCB in stock. Those boards and...
... Hehehe, I think I should do that ! I've got all the code and 4000 or so words loaded, just need to write the control code now. I've decided on a two-mode...

Chris- Sounds awesome! Out of curiosity, is your plan to fit it into one smartsocket programmed PIC that would still sit on the main PCB or are you adding...
... Hi Dylan, I'm going for the all in one approach, so it would be a drop in replacement for existing software :) I've also just preordered a Raspberry Pi so...
... It couldn't be a better time to get into system level programming in a host of languages. Well done the Raspberry Pi foundation ! As for the 4-play device,...

Was going through my junk drawers and found (6) six Burroughs B-7971's mounted in sockets, on a piece of lexan, with wiring... have no idea if they work, but,...
Heh. I have seen them go for as much as $300, but it doesn't mean they are worth, or ever will get, $300 again. Value is about $100 each. Keep in mind that a...
They seem to fetch higher prices in smaller quantities, perhaps some people want to future proof their clocks by holding a couple of spares ? There's nothing...
I'm trying to get the time to spend on writing the new software at home but it's difficult. I want to take my programming stuff to work with me, but it's too...
I've just started testing my Smartsocket (it always takes me ages to finish a project). The self-test of grounding pin 1 of the PIC passes. No response to the...
