[neonixie-l] Re: Rework of NixieSat with Haicom HI-204III GPS?
Hi folks, I've used the most current f/w with a Garmin "GPS18X LVC-5m" with excellent results... fast lock times, sensitive receiver, 1PPS... While the latest f/w does not require a 1PPS signal, the GPS 18X LVC-5m does have a 1PPS signal available if you want to use it. The GPS18X LVC-5m uses RS-232 polarity on the serial port and a 1pps signal is provided. You would need to provide your own cable termination connector. Output sentences can be configured using a Garmin support program available for download at the Garmin site. Firmware updates are also provided if needed. >From the Garmin spec sheet ( https://static.garmincdn.com/pumac/GPS_18x_Tech_Specs.pdf): [image: GPS18x.JPG] Best regards, Bob -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.

I just hope I don’t get hammered for import duty. I only went for these because they are 20 digit Union Flag style and I’ve never seen any longer than this. The displays will no doubt unsolder from the PCB easily enough, but as the driving circuitry is on there, I may keep them as is. A good source of similar 16 digit serial driven displays are available in 12v or 5v from old AWP and SWP machines. These choke at high speed, but are really easy to drive. Beware of used ones as many of these are dim, mottled and at the end of their life. If you can find access to the filament pins, driving them with 12v for a short while (the filament will glow hot) can renovate them, but this can only be done a finite number of times before the filament burns out. Fine for a machine which is only switched on for a short while, ie home use. For a clock, not so great. For the uninitiated, UK slot machines have these trade terms and come under different licensing laws, which may depend on the premises, from kebab shop to casino: AWP means Amusement With Prizes. They provide some level of player interaction, perhaps hold buttons on slot reels for example. They do not depend on the skill of the player. The prize is usually coins, tokens or more plays and are regulated as gambling devices. SWP means Skill With Prizes which do depend on the skill of the player. These might be quiz machines which might be considered to be a variation of video games. Maybe crane machines where you pick up goods to drop into a hopper. These have software control of the gripper timing and strength that will guarantee you lose most of the time. It appears to be pure skill, but borders on the criminal in operation - perhaps only one in ten tries will have a strong enough electro-magnetic grip to ever hold an object. You have no chance with heavy objects like watches, always prominently displayed. It’s always been my contention that it is far cheaper to buy the entire machine and mess with it at home than throw money away in an arcade. You can usually sell it at the very least for what you paid for it. John S -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
