12:53 AM polprog: rue_shop1: hmm, ive been good at 2.4 filament voltage so far
12:58 AM polprog: granted, two similar size displays with 4 wires inside
01:01 AM polprog: i guess the cathode voltages can be fixed
01:01 AM polprog: for most displays
05:51 PM rue_mohr: the way I work out the filament votlage, is to bring them up till they just start to glow, then back it off just till you cant see them glowing.
05:52 PM rue_mohr: its based on the fact that some displays I'v seen they are slightly glowing.
05:52 PM rue_mohr: Tom_L, talked to the service desk person today, took the gears in, told the story
05:53 PM rue_mohr: no disagreeal on anything, asked if she could hold onto the new/orig gears so she could talk it over with the mechanics
05:53 PM rue_mohr: so, we will see what the return offer is
05:53 PM Tom_L: did you leave the truck with them?
06:00 PM rue_mohr: hell no
06:11 PM Tom_L: :)
06:14 PM Tom_L: still no fpga card
06:16 PM rue_mohr: its from china, have patience
06:17 PM Tom_L: i know, i just wish they'd have given me a tracking #
06:18 PM rue_mohr: it would only say when it left and then that you had recieved it
06:19 PM Tom_L: they usually give a bit of vague info
06:19 PM Tom_L: like the port of entry etc
06:25 PM Tom_L: at least my hdd was kind enough to say 'hey fool you'd better back me up' before it completely died
06:26 PM Tom_L: and no it didn't die, i did back it up though :)
06:26 PM Tom_L: couple mixed files i think due to a power glitch the other day
06:27 PM Tom_L: recovered them, cleaned it up and backed it up
