Just tie the anodes together Sent from Space

I mounted 6 IN-12 tubes on the clock board. I noticed that there were 3K resistors on board. So I plugged my tubes directly into the board without adding any resistance. It worked directly at 170V. The problem comes from the tubes or their wiring. I'm reassured, I can still hold a soldering iron. On the other hand, concerning the pinout of the IN-4 tubes, I read everything and its opposite. between the biquinary mode, the even/odd anodes and the anodes marked A1, A2 and A3, I am lost. I have 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11, 12 and 14 for the cathodes wired in parallel and 13 for the anode. but the numbers 0 and 2 are very difficult to light. How to connect these tubes ??? should I connect the 4, 7 and 10 to the 13 ?? Regards, Benoit.

At the max brightness, I am less bright than another IV-4 clock I have. (Sputnik clock, 1 x 4 Mutiplexed + 1 OG-4) If I enable the LDR, under 250 some digits doesn't light, (usually the 0 witch is more difficult to lit than the 1 with a low voltage). with a minimum of 300, the 0 are sometimes flickering, I even put a complete new set of 6 bulbs, never used.

Multiplexing usually yields a less-bright display. There is some debate as to whether or not you should use lower resistance to make them brighter. Since that kit gives you the option to raise the voltage, I would try that first.

I put one 6.8K per tube on the anodes, but the tubes are a bit weak, Any idea ? Regards, Benoit. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
