Cheers Andy I shall keep that in mind :thumbup: I am having trouble with scales though,I have wired one up to test and it was working fine with a battery but wont work without one :scratch: I have a 100uF electrolytic with a .01uF ceramic in parallel as mentioned by Tumutbound :doh: Looks like I forgot to add some jumpers ( i wondered what they were for :palm: ) |

The author said: "I found my 4 pin DIN plugs and sockets on the back of the DRO a nightmare to solder up. [They] just have solid pins to solder to. A type with solder buckets would have been easier with less possibility of solder bridges." --- End quote --- I got rid of the DIN plugs and used 4 pin microphone plug/sockets similar to these. Much easer to solder and as they screw together, no chance of scales becoming disconnected. |

Gereat thread everyone. A lot of questions I had.. but hadnt formulated have been clarified, and answered. An example.. why get the small digital chinese ones.. but now I understand much better how they work, and how the DROs work with them. :mmr: |
