ADVANCED MICROCONTROLLER DISPLAY MOUNTING
Saturday's Progress
Saturday afternoon we got together to assemble the display, test it and mount it. The display was first assembled into four rows and then mounted to a piece of clear Plexi board.
A nice close-up.
Rob and I needed to figure out a way to draw the holes in their exact positions but also leave a little bit of play to really make the display tight and flat. A combination of tracing and eye-balling seemed to really work.
This was the first time I've ever drilled plexi, especially using a drill-press. Leif and I worked on securing the single boards to the plexi.
And here's the best view of them all!
Leif is re-attaching the boards to power, while Rob is setting up the Zigbee.
And while troubleshooting and testing we took a look at what was coming from the components using a Spectrum Analizer.
And then the display was plugged in.
And here's the video of the first display test.
