It's the dataport - you can run a cable to a serial interface and hook it up to a pc to make a cheap DRO, among other things. www.yadro.de |

I just tried to replace the moving "ruler" with a small "ruler"-like peace of aluminum - it seems to work too = the digits changes as I move the aluminum ! This implies that I can use all the full range of the digimeter 0-999.99 mm by just replacing the original ruler with a longer one ! I wonder what is the theory behind this small peace of magic - any link ? |

I have been looking at your PIC DRO for some while now. Good work BTW! |
