Hello everyone,
First I want to thank all the very talented people who’ve created so many versions of the 488 adapters. Almost too many to choose from. Especially want to thank WaveyDipole for all his work on the software and support he’s given, and Jay_Diddy_B for his board design that I’ve chosen to use.
I have been concentrating on building the buffered version by Jay_Diddy_B, shown in reply 862. I’m waiting on parts and so started to get going on the AR488 software. I’d like to get confirmation on the changes I need to make on the Config.h file. The numbers at the beginning of the lines below are the line numbers of the unmodified config.h file.
45 //#define AR488_UNO // Commented this line out since a NANO board is being used.
46 #define AR488_NANO // Uncommented this line since a NANO board is being used.
158 #define SN7516X // Uncommented this line since the design uses buffers.
160 #define SN7516X_TE 6 //Jay_Diddy_B SD Rev 2 in Reply 848, pg34, shows SN75160-1 and 61-1 (TE) going to D6. So uncommented this line.
161 #define SN7516X_DC 13 // Jay_Diddy_B SD Rev 2 in Reply 848, pg34, shows SN75161-11 (DC) going to J1 for selection of either D3 or D13. But D3 is also used for REN so use pin 13. Thus uncommented this line.
162 // #define SN7516X_SC 12 // Jay_Diddy_B SD Rev 2 in Reply 848, pg34, shows SN75161-14 (EOI) connected to D12. Can't find an "SC" on the schematic, so leave commented out.
163 // ONLYA board // Since I'm not using the ONLYA board, I think the following two lines should be commented out.
164 // #define SN7516X_TE 13
165 // #define SN7516X_DC 5
186 thru 197 deal with interrupts. Since I’m using a NANO, should the interrupt section be uncommened?
205-216 deal with dip switches, which I don’t have. Should line 205 (#define DIP_SWITCH) be commented out?
Thanks in advance
Bob
