I went through and reflowed all of my joints on the board just to make sure that a bad joint was not adding to the issue. Thank you for all of your replies. The show is up and running!

Thank you for the quick response I didn't even think of the problem lying with the opto's I switched it out for a spare I had and it works fine. Another problem arose and it is now the Data Link light is lit with nothing attached. Any Ideas.

Lynx Express / No LED 2
« on: November 23, 2012, 11:00:45 pm »
I have just finished my third LE and when i run the tests I get no response from LED 2. I have ruled out the 485's as I have swapped them onto a working board and it functioned fine. Also I have re flashed the PIC twice to no avail. Any other things I should look for? Any Help would be greatly appreciated Thank you in advance!

At one point the Orbit enclosures were on sale at lowes for under $5 a piece that is why people started to use them it just depends on location and season. Northern Lowe's were selling them off as they are not on high demand during the winter seasons. This allowed buyers to has them drop shipped from the stores for a greatly reduced price. you just have to do some calling around.

The express fits nicely in a Orbit sprinkler timer box available at Lowes.

We have been able to get them pretty cheap if you call around to stores and see what they have in stock and what they are getting rid of them for. They also come with GFI plugs already installed.

If you can get a hold of a .edu address you can get 25% off the pickit from the Microchip website. this would make the Pickit 3 $33.71

If you can scrounge up a .edu email address you can get educational pricing through Microchip for the Pickit3 i think it is something like 20% off.

My Lowes and Menards up here in Big Rapids MIchigan had some stuff left. Lots of blowups and white lights both incans and leds. 75% off at Lowes and an extra 11% off at Menards with rebate on the whole store! who can pass up on the blow ups at $30 for a previously $150! Even if i don't use it myself should be easy to get rid of.
