December 1, 200520 yr Hi all,I've just finished my new DIO-board for the new FSBUS...Everything's working fine so far, but there are some things I wonder about:I have modified some standard 12-stage-rotary-switches to work with FSBUS, as it is said in the manual. It does it's proper job in FSBUS ADMIN, so when I turn the knob I can see the program counting on the "Keys/Switches"-Page. However, it is not working in the FSBUS Router itself: I choose the "12-Stage-Rotary" and the right RID/SID, but the green field next to the switch value won't light up... well it does, actually, if I set the type to "Knitter" and turn, but then of course I cannot modify any values the way I would like to ;-)Also, I cannot bring the LEDs on the digital-out-port to live through the Router (but, as before, it works with the Admin)Anybody got an idea?thnx in advance,best regardsChris
December 2, 200520 yr Hi ChrisDid you install the new router?This works fine for me when I choose digital input rotary from the menu.I think you choose the rotary from the classic version.I've the same problem with the led, so if you found the solution for that.............Best regardsJan Geurtsen
December 2, 200520 yr Author Yeah... I did not try the DI-Rotary yet, just the old one.... now it works... thnx!! For the leds: as there seems to be nothing called "DO-Led" or something, I guess the two output ports on the new DIO-board is not yet supported... this is what I think may be the case...regards,Chris
December 2, 200520 yr Nice, in the manual of the I/O there is a little tutorial how to use a led, see page 26 of the tutorial.Maybe Dirk can explain?Best regardsJan Geurtsen
December 2, 200520 yr Author Yeah, but it says nothing about the router-software there.... using FSBUS ADMIN it is working fine for me as well ^^greez,Chris
December 2, 200520 yr Did you think of the extra 180 ohm resistors to be used with the leds? These resistors are not on the pcb but are described in the manual.regardsNorberthttp://home.wanadoo.nl/norbert.bosch/
December 2, 200520 yr Author Hi Norbert,I have used 220ohms instead, because of I had no 180s at home :-PWell, this brings me some 16mA for my LEDs, which is absolutely fine... %-)Anyway, the problem is, the output ports ARE actually working, but only with the FSBUS ADMIN - the just won't light up using the Router, but I think this is because this is not yet supported in this version of the software.... but it will come some day, I'm sure ;-)regards,Chris Haus-Air
