Re: [neonixie-l] Re: B7971 DUSTOFF Board Interest

[Mahdi Al Husseini]

Hi, Peter,

Unfortunately I do not think I would be able to adapt the ZM1350 to the
B5971 with a custom adapter board, and the reason is due to the differing
resistor requirements between the two for their respective pin sets - it
would require a not insignificant adjustment to the main board to get
right. I feel your pain about acquiring ZM1350s... I have managed to
purchase twelve in the past several years, and nearly half of those were
defective in a significant way.

That's a good point. I never noticed that the center vertical segment was 
one piece.

The only problem in doing that - as far as I can tell - is that the B5971 does 
not have the same number of segments, I believe that the centre vertical 
segment is one long piece from top to bottom as opposed to being made up of two 
parts.
Whilst it may be possible to handle the switching of this with some electronics 
it would be easier to do it in software - re-mapping all the characters to deal

DUSTOFF B7971 BOARD + ESP32 ADAPTER [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity]

Based on the feedback provided, I have already put in another PCB manufacturing 
and assembly order for five DUSTOFF displays (no tubes). I am tracking the 
following individuals are interested (no commitment):

1.) Peter Doroba
2.) Jon Jackson (#2! + I owe working ESP32 back-end implementation of database)
3.) Wo Tu (board not assembled, kit version)

Peter and Jon, your maintained interest has been (happily) noted, looking for 
continuing interest from Wo and Wayne.

GEORGIA TECH GRADCAP B5971 [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity]
Kind of a neat update on this one, I was recently issued a design patent! I 
have one remaining (no tubes). Last I was tracking, the following individuals

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: B7971 DUSTOFF Board Interest

[Peter Doroba]

I'm absolutely still interested in the DUSTOFF board.  I'm also interested 
in the ZM1350 board however I don't have any tubes and they seem very hard 
to obtain.  I do have a set of B5971 tubes.  Is it possible to adapt the 
ZM1350 board to B5971?  I guess what I'm asking is if it's a one piece 
board or if the displays are on a separate pcb.  If so would it be possible 
for me to design a display board for the B5971's that would plug into the 
driver board if it's a multiple board design.

Thanks!

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: B7971 DUSTOFF Board Interest

[Mahdi Al Husseini]

Whew! Sorry again everyone. Been out of the country *again*, and will be
leaving to Australia in early June for a couple months. Work has been crazy
this year. That said... here are updates on all my existing and future
projects. .

*EXISTING PROJECTS*
*If your name is not listed below and you're interested, please let me
know! Cost will be roughly the cost to manufacture and assemble + shipping,
in the $300-$400 range for various boards. *

*DUSTOFF B7971 BOARD + ESP32 ADAPTER [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity]*

Based on the feedback provided, I have already put in another PCB
manufacturing and assembly order for five DUSTOFF displays (no tubes). I am
tracking the following individuals are interested (no commitment):

1.) Peter Doroba
2.) Jon Jackson (#2! + I owe working ESP32 back-end implementation of
database)
3.) Wo Tu (board not assembled, kit version)
4.) Wayne de Greer (x2?)
5.)

Peter and Jon, your maintained interest has been (happily) noted, looking
for continuing interest from Wo and Wayne.

*GEORGIA TECH GRADCAP B5971 [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity]*
Kind of a neat update on this one, I was recently issued a design patent! I
have one remaining (no tubes). Last I was tracking, the following
individuals were interested (no commitment):

1.) William "Bill" Eckler

Will, please let me know if you're still interested.

* ZM1350 8-TUBE BOARD [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity]*

I have two remaining (no tubes). Last I was tracking, the following
individuals were interested (no commitment):

1.) Jon Jackson
2.) Paul Wolff

Jon and Paul, please let me know if you're still interested.


*UPCOMING PROJECTS  *

*STANFORD GRADCAP ZM1350 [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity]  *
Especially excited about this one - uses a matrix array of ZM1350s to show
off some neat moving graphics! Software is going to a pain and will largely
have to be written from scratch, but should be a fun challenge. Design
patent application filed on this.

*POST-MODERN 8091 CLOCK [ESP32 w/ WiFi Connectivity]*
The circuit board is up and running properly, but still trying to design an
interesting and post-modern black anodized aluminum case for said clock...
should we be neat when complete! I also only have 5 8091s, and am
desperately searching for a 6th. Trying to turn this into a collaboration
project with an industrial designer!

 Yes, all of what you are requesting can be done seamlessly, though
 it requires a wifi network that you can connect to, to be available.
 Shouldn’t be a problem if you live at an airport!

 I have one other interested individual, but need one more in order
 to make putting another batch in worthwhile (the $300 cost is near
 production cost, so it’s a loss if I can’t sell at least of four of 
 five).
 I will let you know if that happens by email

 Thanks!

Mahdi,

I would be interested in a second DUSTOFF board for my daughter down the

 These new boards are outfitted with the improved ESP32s instead of

 The cost would be $300 + shipping.

 Thank you.

 Yes, all of what you are requesting can be done seamlessly, though it 
 requires a wifi network that you can connect to, to be available. 
 Shouldn’t 
 be a problem if you live at an airport!

 I have one other interested individual, but need one more in order to 
 make putting another batch in worthwhile (the $300 cost is near production 
 cost, so it’s a loss if I can’t sell at least of four of five). I will let 
 you know if that happens by email 

 Thanks!

 These new boards are outfitted with the improved ESP32s instead of

 The cost would be $300 + shipping. 

 Thank you.

Okay, count me in for a board.  Good luck with the training!  Seems we're 
into the same things just in different order.  I'm working on learning 
microcontroller programming and PCB design.

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: B7971 DUSTOFF Board Interest

[Mahdi Al Husseini]

Yes that’s certainly possible but are you sure you would like that? There
are more than 100 individual discrete transistors on the board, an equal
number of individual pin sockets, and nearly double that number of SMD
resistors.

Perhaps you really like soldering!

 Yes, all of what you are requesting can be done seamlessly, though it
 requires a wifi network that you can connect to, to be available. Shouldn’t
 be a problem if you live at an airport!

 I have one other interested individual, but need one more in order to
 make putting another batch in worthwhile (the $300 cost is near production
 cost, so it’s a loss if I can’t sell at least of four of five). I will let
 you know if that happens by email

 Thanks!

 Hi all,

 clocks/displays (without tubes), and would like to know who might be
 interested.

 Video of the clock/display in action: B7971 Dustoff IoT Board -
 YouTube
 

 These new boards are outfitted with the improved ESP32s instead of
 ESP8266s. This is my last run of B7971 boards for the foreseeable 
 future.
 The cost would be $300 + shipping.

 Thank you.

Hi, Peter, very cool! I have my commercial and instrument ratings in rotary
aircraft (and am working on my commercial multi engine FW). Possibly ATP
one day - we’ll see!

Yes, all of what you are requesting can be done seamlessly, though it
requires a wifi network that you can connect to, to be available. Shouldn’t
be a problem if you live at an airport!

I have one other interested individual, but need one more in order to make
putting another batch in worthwhile (the $300 cost is near production cost,
so it’s a loss if I can’t sell at least of four of five). I will let you
know if that happens by email

Thanks!

Mahdi

 Hi all,

 I am thinking about producing another batch of five B7971
 clocks/displays (without tubes), and would like to know who might be
 interested.

 Video of the clock/display in action: B7971 Dustoff IoT Board - YouTube
 

 These new boards are outfitted with the improved ESP32s instead of
 ESP8266s. This is my last run of B7971 boards for the foreseeable future.
 The cost would be $300 + shipping.

 Thank you.

 Mahdi

Great! I'd likely take you up on the code help offer.  I did start out as 
an EE major in college but switched to Aeronautical Science when I got the 
flying bug. :)  I'm a Spirit Airlines Captain and live on an airport so the 
the METAR/TAF feature really speaks to me. LOL  Maybe a silly question but 
the board can display the current date and time correct?  Can it be 
configured to display both local and UTC  in turn?  Also, how often is the 
WX data displayed?  Thanks!

Pete

Yes of course! Currently, it will immediately select the closest airport
based on longitude and latitude data, but it is very easy to adjust the
code to select a particular airport ID. I can help with that as needed. The
current code for TAF/METAR is attached for reference. If purchased, I will
adjust the code slightly, to support the ESP32 on the new boards.
