GPWiz40-Eco to ST - What parts?
« on: January 10, 2010, 02:15:43 pm »
Hey guys, the title topic may be a bit confusing, but I'm wondering, what are the screw terminal strips required to change an Eco model to an ST model.

Currently I've got a GPWiz40-Eco, that I've got wired up with DB25's, as per the suggestion by beretta in This Thread, before it turned sour.

It works great, and makes for easy disconnects, but I'm redoing plans a bit for a new control panel. I'm thinking about putting a USB hub and a second GPWiz40 in now. I'll desolder the DB25's and solder in some screw terminals. Can anyone suggest a decent supplier for the screw terminals? I can't find them on mouser or digikey, unless I'm just looking in the wrong place.

Bump :(

Maybe I'll just have to manually solder all the wires in again, and just get another Eco?

Not quite sure what's wrong with keeping the DB25s; I guess I could understand if you're just trying to clean things up a bit, or something.

Anyway, the thread you linked to included a link to those very terminals on Radio Shack's website.  Not sure where else you'd go for that, other than eBay, perhaps?

That'd be nice and all, but there's no mroe radioshacks in canada (bought out by circuit city and rebranded as The Source). The source can't order ratshack parts and ratshack won't ship online to me... :( I was hoping for a digikey, mouser, or equivalent supplier, if possible. My company places TONS of orders through digikey, so that would be no problem.

OH, I see.  That would make a difference.  I do see some on eBay (search "pc board terminal").  If that doesn't work for you either, sorry, can't help much.
