I read a while back in a thread about the following:
Multiple versions of PBP on the same computer.
I.E. V2.42,2.50X, 2.6X etcetera.
The reason is that some versions do not support newer versions...

I also agree that Darrel's Fantastic Instant Interrupts should be on MEL's website.
However I feel that Darrel would have EVEN LESS time time to work on the future products
that a little birdie let...

Hi mcbeaslyjr,

Go to MEL's website and root around there for more information. Also try to look it up in the MEL U2 programer manual. There is a good explanation there.
It has to do with some...

Thanks Darrel,
Amazing what you can forget when you do not check on it often.
Now to MELabs site to see how antique Ver. 4.23 is.

How can I find or tell what version my MEL U2 programmer is?

Hello All,
Without seeing a complete schematic:
Be careful as to how much current you are trying to sink!
Please place a 330 ohm 1/2 watt resistor this limits the current that the pic output is...

Hi Everyone,
I had to take a unexpected trip out of town( the hoops we will jump through and do for a job interview....). I wish to thank EVERYONE for thier positive input. The order will go out...

Has anyone had or heard of a confirmend issue with PBP V2.6 Ver. C?

Dave,
You are correct. That would eliminate both lightning and RF problems.
At the moment, the drawback is the cost. Fiber cable is kinda steep. This is unless there is a low cost (HEY, I'm a HAM...

Thanks Dave,
Will this one work? It appears to offer full duplex and is isolated, which help with all the RF floating around the site.

Rmteo,
Thank you for such a speedy response!
Looks like it might work. The remote device is a Digital-vector watt meter.
It will be located with at the output end of a Harris Platinum I amplifier...

Hi Everyone,
Not using a pic.
But here is my problem.
A piece of test equipment needs to be located 175 feet from computer. Data rate is 115k baud which is fixed.
Any ideas as to what is needed...

Hi Hank,
That is great that you got it to work! Is there a chance that you could post a working version in the code examples section for the rest of us? It is still a little foggy to me.......

At over 3600 pages, I fell asleep after JUST downloading this "masterpiece"!

Thanks Darrel and Mark!
I have had isuses with PBP 2.50C. And as usual they were MY FAULT!
However, I learned a looong time ago not to quite trust a "New Release" of MOST things. This is at least l...

Just wondering if there any KNOWN bugs or issues with PBP 2.60A?
If they are what are the work a rounds? Any idea when the will be a NEW revision? A new VERSION?
I was just wondering as I HAVE not...

Hello Acetronics and PickyBiker,
That is the kind of explanation that anyone not familiar with PBP or PB DOES need!


Acetronics, You have been very helpful here.
The manual(s) are somewhat...

Hi,
Just my 2C. Would not TVS work? I have used them in series to increase trigger voltage.
Some models can switch in just a few nanoseconds. Nice thing is they can also dissipate a few KW. Cheap...

Mike,
Thank you for the part data AND the assembly code.
It will be fun experimenting with this!

Hi Mike,
Fantastic work!

Could you please post:
LED Part number,
Gamma correction routine?

Please, Please, Pretty Please?

I've learned a lot from this thread and want to say Thank You, to...

Hello Darrell,
I can see now that it was VirtualPort.bas. Thank you so much.

Out of curiousity though, Is there ONE location where one can find all of your published pearls of wisdom?
