[Buddy]

I hate you.

 

[newbiereef]

thanks Macca_75 :-)

thans sort of what i was looking at

 

[macca_75]

Ignore the scratch on the screen

 

[newbiereef]

noice :-)

 

[newbiereef]

ok here is my box

 

[newbiereef]

@MagicJ can i do away with the wires i am holding

 

[newbiereef]

and what the is this and where do it go ????????? @MagicJ

This one is easy - nowhere at the moment.

It is a small piezo speaker - I was thinking about adding some sound feedback to screen touches etc so I thought it would be easier to send it to you along with everything else.

I will let you know if this ever gets incorporated into the sketch - in the mean time, store it in a safe place - maybe tape it inside the box somewhere :)

the extra wires can i remove them ?

Probably not - I think you have some wiring issues.

The module next to the one with the battery is the 16 channel PWM module. We need 10 PWM channels so one set of wires covers 8 channels + ground. The next set covers the additional 2 channels + ground. There appears to be some wires pulled out of the the 2 yellow crimp pins on the bottom LDD PCB - am I correct?

 

[newbiereef]

oh damn maybe ? which ones i wonder :-(

 

[newbiereef]

I know you think its silly, but the storm thing would be cool. I dont know if it does any good or harm for the fish, but it would impress my kids, and maybe make the wife happy too.

see see i was not the only one :-)

yes 3 wires any ideas where ?

Hi @newbiereef

I need a better photo of the 3 sections identified below

There should also be a wire harness joining the board with the battery with the Arduino - you can see the pins top left on your photo - do you have this wire harness?

 

[newbiereef]

will go happy snap but i dont think i have the harness you are asking about :-(

 

[newbiereef]

Hi @MagicJ are these ok ?

 

[newbiereef]

 

[neongt]

were do i sign up for this code i am building one too

 

[newbiereef]

@MagicJ long shot but did the controller have a basic set up in it ?
