Looks amazing! SUPER GLAD to see a product in the price range! Oh Oh.... hot swap optic boards? doable?? As for the optics... I don't know what your plan is, but wouldn't it be easier not to add optics directly on the board? Since there are two (assuming where the optics go... bottom left? ) but that wouldn't be all that useful. One might be (so you can just move it up next to an spinner and mount the whole thing there... or maybe a super small optic board that can be used in place of many others (so just the bare minimum optics super small easy to put on any board). Anyway, let us know what the plan is. btw, will these work with Oscars optic boards? (and Kelsey, doe you still have them around if they do work?) |

I have an old WICO here, but haven't bugged out the pins yet. Anyone have pinouts for this connector for the HAPP so I can compare? --- Quote from: Havok on January 04, 2006, 08:53:25 am ---...If so, that would work great for how I would like to use this product. Plus, I would like to add to the requests that you produce a spinner! --- End quote --- Way ahead of you ;) --- Quote from: Lilwolf on January 04, 2006, 10:56:15 am ---Oh Oh.... hot swap optic boards? doable?? --- End quote --- Hmmm...should be doable.

Just one will tell you something moved, but not give a direction. The boards where you see just one black component have 2 LEDs and 2 photo-transistors built into it, unless it is just a limit switch or counter for something. RandyT |
