Good Evening, I am Patrick and live in Spain. I have obtained (via a friend) and built the Sprog kit. Had I known about the smb's I would have gladly paid full...
More info from me. There is no track voltage. Using Hyperterminal I can switch upper LED on and off, I also can get the version number. (3.9) When I type in...
... Hi Andrew, it's Patrick here. ... and the two ... I used a continuity tester and it all seems to connect from 25/26 thru to the track terminals. I'll have...
Patrick, Yes, the + command switches the track power as well as the LED. With the track power on, the PIC pins should be toggling. Your DVM may show a voltage...
... Back again Andrew, There is no power at the track or the terminals with LED lit. I got a reading of 6.8ish from the regulator, is that ok ? I deleted msg...
Patrick, The reply of !O in the JMRI log means that the SPROG detected a short circuit and turned off the track power. That's why you can't read any voltage. ...
... short. ... That was well spotted Andrew, what does "!E" mean (out of interest)? I have built the USB version and have not fitted R100 which I presume is...
Andrew, Following on from my previous post. I bit the bullet and fitted R100 (oR47) and in hyperterminal I got 8.89v (ac) on the track. Do I need more volts,...
Patrick, R100 is referenced in section 3.4.1 along with all the other output stage components. It is pretty crucial, as you,ve found. It sounds like it's...
... Hi ANdrew, it might be good news - things are perking up. But I must explain that having triple checked section 3.4.1 there is no mention of R100. Anyway,...
... output ... In ... trimmer. ... must ... mention ... loco, ... clear ... ideas ... the "working" ... is ... Patrick, I've recently built the SPROG Kit as...
... Thanks for the confirmation Jamie, I checked YET again, there is no mention of either R100 or R35 in the build instructions. Funnily enough I had fitted...
It is worth it - I use a SPROG as a command station - it works really well. I too had teething problems but these were due to my PIC being blank - no-one's...
Well thanks to Andrew I got my box of bits sorted out, I managed to read/write to a LGB engine and even ran it using the throttle. I have fitted the case and...
