I've had to slice it, as it was 8 mm too tall for the MK3S. Will post the make.

Anyone aware of a way to flip the camera video to where its not reversed?

I can successfully upload the Tasmota.bin file from the github repository. I cannot get either the scanner or the termite program to show any login prompt. Also of note, the transmit and receive had to be connected (crossed) in both directions to get programing to begin. Any suggestions?

I too only get the white backlit screen. I've checked that all of the pins are connected and not shorted. I've rechecked the editing in the TFT-eSPI file and no errors there. Was there something Jeff that you found missed in the documentation?

The Cylon example for the fastLed is interesting. Just comment out the clock pin line and set the Data pin to 13. :)

Your link to the url and the sketches is broken, server not found.

FYI, here is a link to 3D print a case for the Wemos 18650 charger. https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2839419/

I'm getting a font library error, Can't seem to locate what font library is needed. Fonts/OpenSansBold12pt7b.h: No such file or directory

I too had one of these as a kid in the 60's. My grandfather got it for me, what a blast from the past. I remember building things and making the lights change. Too cool to find this!

Was wondering how the box design was going? I too would like to print a nice cover for this package.

I cut the traces on the back side of the pcb and cross connected them with short insulated leads. Thanks for your info, quite helpful.

When I try to copy the arcade.uf2 (3.2.2) file to the itsybitsy M4 (when in bootloader mode), I get an error that there is not enough filespace. The error takes a while to calculate free space and then times out not enough file space. Has ayone ran into this and what did you do to resolve it? I am running windows 10.

I'm getting a white screen too and the soldering is good, double checked it. Dragging a file to the boot drive only hangs and waits and waits.

Thanks, voila! Succes! I still stand by my IT motto, all of us are smarter than just one of us..

Too many years of using a eprom programmers I think. Looking closer, i started counting at the bottom, doh. I'll try one up next. That's just weird...

I'm working on section 3 with the PICKit3 programmer connected to the ZIF socket. The program compiles correctly, but when it goes to burn to the chip, I get an error after clicking on the voltage error prompt. It reads: Programmer to target power is enabled - VDD = 4.875000 volts.Target Device ID (0x3fe0) is an Invalid Device ID. Please check your connections to the Target Device.Device Erased...Programming...The following memory area(s) will be programmed:program memory: start address = 0x0, end address = 0x7ffconfiguration memoryprogram memoryAddress: 0 Expected Value: 2ffe Received Value: 3fffFailed to program deviceI've double checked all of the settings in the IDE. What am I missing?

FYI, since i blew up a sim card in one of my old spare phones, I no longer searched for a prolific driver for the reader. I have other devices including a driver for a ham radio communication link that I did not want to break. These drivers have been quite problematic since Microsoft deprecated the older devices.

In trying to get the SIM card reader to load, its getting a code 10 error on the driver when running on Windows 10. Any recommendations for the correct driver to get it to be recognized?

I have this one to run more than one display, if needed. It's cheap too. https://www.amazon.com/ALITOVE-Converter-Transformer-5-5x2-1mm-100V-240V/dp/B078RZBL8X/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1543330127&sr=1-1&keywords=ALITOVE+5V+8A+40W+AC+to+DC+Adapter+Power+Supply

It's still doing the same thing, could it be if it drops the wifi connection it does not try to reconnect and update? If I reboot the clock with the updated code it will sync with the correct time.

I'm looking for code on the MP-503 and the Nano, anyone aware of any projects using this sensor? I have not been able to find any...

After a few hours of running at the correct time, it drops back an hour. Anyone ran into this situation? Rebooting it resets it back to the correct time and then a few hours later its one hour slow.

Not sure what you would get, the description shows P4 P5 and P3 all in the same line. The display P3 is 2.5 mm spacing. the others are 0.5 mm added to each number. Not good for close up.

Search hackstet.io for raindrop desk toy. Its under playing with 64 x 32 display

I fount it and another one on hackster.io. just search by display. 64x32 led matrix. Google finds it too. Just rem out the esp8266 when you run on the esp 32 or vice versa. I'll see if I van post the link.

I like your idea, the only drawback I see is over 80 bucks per panel at that vendor. Can't find cheaper that won't deliver in less than 60 days overseas shipping. :(

I got the raindrops program to work it's pretty cool.

With there being an Atari sticker in the box, is there a posibility of running any Atari games or a MAME rom type of emulator with this hardware?

I'm trying to set up the morphing clock program. Running into an error that I cannot yet locate how to change the wifi web server/wifi program from the esp8266 to the esp32. I get the following error. ESP8266WebServer.h: No such file or directory. Anyone have an idea or link to how to set this up or change the setup to work on the esp32?

Yea, I found several posts on that too, tried it, did not work. :(

Assembled and got the first Pro Micro working a couple of days ago. Can upload the Blink program and functions fine. However when trying to upload the CC1101_RX or TX program, I get a compile error indicating WProgram, from C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\libraries\CC1101/ELECHOUSE_CC1101.h:13, then C:\Program Files (x86)\Arduino\libraries\CC1101/ELECHOUSE_CC1101.h:14:22: fatal error: WProgram.h: No such file or directory #include <WProgram.h>

I can't see much use for the blue box. My favorite phone encoder for phone systems and pay phones was my Sharp Pocket Auto Dialer EL-6260. Haven't had a use for it in years...

Thanks, I've been reading up on State diagrams today and state machines today.

Anyone yet combined all of the pieces into the "4 state alarm" as the One example suggests? By the way HB, any sample code for the "One example" mentioned in step 14??

Mine flew apart from the plastic window after the first pick. Got one from another group recently and it is rock solid. Love the picking though. Went out to the garage and been picking other padlocks I had laying around...

Where can I find the pinouts to go from the ethernet ENC28J60 to the Nano?

Did anyone else notice that all of the electical equipment in the picture are european plugs?

Nice kit, It needs a really small VOM for measuring circuits.

Anyone able to make this more of a sequencer/synthesizer? Hackerbox have any more code on this or any more teasers?

How would you go about adding wavetable data files?

Just an observation and suggestion, this pcb uses thru hole plating with solder pads on both sides of the circuit board (two sided soldering). Make sure your solder makes a good bond on both sides. Being certain that the solder with resin flows thru to both sides. I see a log of comments on flaky operation here where the soldering may not have been hot enough and causing a "cold solder joint". Here's a good tutorial with pictures. That should eliminate a lot of problems.https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-guide-excellent-soldering/common-problems

Exactly what I did too.

Should either of the jumpers be set to something on the black pill? looks like they are boot settings?Problem I have been troubleshooting is that I can upload once to it, then have to restart Arduino IDE to do any further uploads.

It would be helpful to add a picture of the pinout for the 10 pin connectors used, as in the ST-Link. One that shows orientation with the tab. Is there an link to one?

Q: What is the calibration procedure for the two pots?

Got the programmer to work using the UNO too, yea he is a fast talker. Going to see if there is enough memory to put part of the Imperial march in place.

Using the UNO method, I too am now able to program the attiny85. Gonna change the tune to Imperial march, if enough memory available.

I've tried all of the different drivers on a Win 10 with Arduino 1.8.3 and everything registers ok up to the device manager. I never see a com port to select that works in the IDE. Blink will compile, but times out after a few minutes. I get red leds lit on both sides (USBasp and Atmel AVR). All is get is "An error occurred while uploading the sketch".

Maybe someone can 3d scan the case and upload it to thingiverse. Then we could make as many as wanted and not hunt for ebay relics. There are a lot more modules to take advantage of now.

I'm thinking this would be fun to put a mask over the camera and have a face that looks at you. Maybe a Guy Fawkes mask? lol. Plenty of halloween masks to try. Add glowing eyes....May be a couple of days b4 i can start...can't wait.

I found this repo on a kitchen timer with the SSD1306 display and a speaker. Works well. Also made a ble beacon with the Microbit. interesting MC.https://github.com/fizban99/microbit_ssd1306_7seg

I got it, cool! had output of GPS connected to rx and tx..not AØ and A1. duh...Sleep helps troubleshooting....:D

i got the same error trying to upload the captured text and one other question, how did you get the program to write the file to gps.txt? I have compared the exact same code from another instructables project and cannot find the error. I get no error that it cannot write nor any data written. I only see the text from the gps if i reset the nano.

I have the same issue with the U-blox. Working thru your suggestion. I also don't get any GPS data to write to the sdcard. If I reset the NANO, the data shows on the comm port screen, but nothing writes to the sd card. Does not matter if i create the gpadata text file or not. Tried copying the text from the gps data output to the GPS visualization website and it indicated a header was missing. Their header example is less than the output from the chip.

My mini card reader worked once and then will not work since then. It does not recognize when plugged in and the blue led does not light.

I like the Underworld theme, added it in and got it to work. Now if we just had more...Donkey Kong, Defender, Galaga or others.....

Got a fresh start this am and got them all running. McGuyver was ingenious. Now what else can it do?
