I must be a sucker for punishment :bang: I must say, the assembly instructions are underwhelming to say the least. most of it seems clear enough, did you have any problems assembling yours? cheers Roy. EDIT. I just found an online pdf instruction sheet, it's in chinglish but meh. Roy. --- End quote --- Hi Roy :lol: :lol: :lol: aye there not the best instructions , mine went together with only two problems :zap: , first was a faulty battery lead ,so I had to replace that , and the second was down to me not being able to find the on/off switch :palm: ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, you have to press the rotary encoder :bang: My function generator kit arrived today ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, it needs a +12 -12 and 5v power supply to run it :zap: Cheers Rob PS John ,Joules I have some 6.3mm carbon arc rods :lol: |

Hi Rob which kit did you get, it sounds a bit fussy needing various voltages. do you have a power supply in mind? I know computer power supplies give +12 and +5, I don't know about -12 tho. thanks for the heads up on the battery connector, I'll test mine first, I've ordered the case for it as well but it hasn't arrived yet.
