Hi I'm playing around and familiarising myself with Dekatrons. Have an arduino-interface PCB so running them off Arduino. OG-4 and A101 running nicely but i'm struggling with the Argon 3-guide tubes.
Here's a video of what it's doing - it looks like it's driving correctly but it's failing usually at the same pin everytime. But sometimes it's circling nicely. https://photos.app.goo.gl/tznRK8o7DN14wGbX7 Is this a hardware fault ('sticky' pin on the dekatron) or is this a fault in my software to drive it? I know some Dekatrons can be a bit tricky and sticky, if this is just a sticky pin, what's the best way to try and resolve it? If the answer is 'run it for hours' - is it best to run it super fast or slow? Many Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
