Hi all, I got a rotary phone from a friend, and it works, but I cannot get it to ring. The phone line is spliced to a "standard phone jack" (sorry, forgot RJ number). Now the original part of the phone line has 3 wires. RED YELLOW GREEN The RED and the GREEN are spliced to the 2 wires on t...

My understanding is that "C++" does mean what you said, the next C increment.

Would ++C be different then C++?!

Hi all,

I read about the "Stripboards" in the last(?) Nuts&Volts mag (was it an ad?)
They sound really neat, and I want to get some.

BUT

Their site is down....

www.stripboard.com

Does anyone know where I can get some?

I just re-read your post...if you need help deleting this is how (if you already know, well, there it is!...) Asuming you know the area you want cleaned... Command: del "\program files\IE\temp_area\files\*.* /q" This will delete all files within the \program files\IE\temp_area\files" ...

How about creating a batch file that does all the DOS cleanup commands on the directories you need (del \tenmp_area\*.* /q), then after the batchfile all works as planned, put it into your "startup" area (Start --> Program --> Startup). This should run the batchfile at startup. Hope it hel...

JPKNHTP,

Well, now you've done it! A Logic Analyzer?! Now I have to look into those!

BTW, I found a good tutorial on scopes

Hi all, Well, alittle background. I've been getting a LCD working with my pic18f4520. The LCD uses an 8-bit serial, not quite spi. Ultimately (with other cose samples etc.) I am able to get the bad boy working using bit banging. I'm using CCS's Software Prototyping Board, and I can attach LED's to p...

Hi there,

You can also get EVERYTHING you need from CCS (www.ccsinfo.com), the C compiler, proto boards, Programmers etc.

Microchip also sells protoboards etc., They have a kit that contains the PicDem2 Plus proto board, and a ICD2.

Hi all, Nice day here in Santa Cruz, CA, USA...gentle ocean breeze, sunny! ah!... Now that we are all relaxed... Lets say that I have 10 led's all connecting to a selector switch that turns them on or off... you know, one single input, 10 possible output paths. I'm sure there is such a physical swit...

To insure proper operation of the display connect all the common anode pins together and to the 220 ohm resistor. I thougth that sharing a single res for all the segments could exceed the res value if the segments where not multiplexed. Meaning, if I turn on only 1 segment at a time, the 220res wou...

Okay, I had to get that out of my chest! I remember running from school to our local Radio Shack and using their TRS-80 for hours on end...ah, good times!...good times! Radio shacks in an interesting position, they are neither an "electronics/tech" shop or a "Circuit City-esk" st...

Thanks for the url! I've ordered a few parts!

Hi all, I'm trying to locate a LED/LCD screen that is approx 1" x 0.75" in size that I can control with a PIC family of chips. I'd like a small screen to be able to do simple graphics (eg. Fonts) and that has a somewhat good dpi (don't want no chubby graphics)... Any idea's where/what etc?...
