Thread: can somebody tell me what this part is.

  1. #1

    Default can somebody tell me what this part is.

    I know I ordered this from TCSS a couple of years ago. But I never used it and I can not for the life of me remember what it's for. (I believe its a driver but I cant remember if it was to use with a MR or a Hasbro board )

    That's a Corbin V2 board. It's a LED driver with ramp on/off effects but no sound. You can wire it with a MR board if you have the fu. Don't use it with a US/CF

    wow 3 min I didnt think I would get a responce THAT fast LOL. I will have to search around and see if I can find a wiring diagram. My fu is ok if I have something to follow. (what the little momentary (guessing thats what that is) switch for? A clash affect?)

    *edit* well found the diagrams. (whew dont know about this one.) Is it worth it?

    Look in cutaway views and wiring schematics, there are tons of diagrams there.

    You have the newer board. All that has changed is that it is now smaller. You just need to wire it by the markings on the PCB and you'll be good to go

    its funny after looking through some threads I am starting to remember why I never wired it LOL, to fracken complicated for my level of fu. I was reading that you needed two clash sensors and a dpdt switch. So I dont think I can use it on my current saber it uses one of Tims illuminated switches with a Maul MR board.

    Um, the illuminated switches are DPDT switches.

    I'm sorry, not to thread jack or start the flaming, but J-LO..while I respect you for your wealth of knowledge and skill in both Star Wars and saber building...you really need to work on your...er...delivery of your responses.

    I've seen so many condescending replies (whether your mean to or not) over the years I've lurked here, and I'm sorry to say but you COULD be much nicer about how you respond to people...just my two cents.

    You could have simply stated that the illuminated switches are in fact DPDT, and perhaps pointed him to the store page where it mentions it, a particular thread, etc.

    Not everyone has the same level of skill and knowledge as those of us who have been here a while, and the search engine for the forum doesn't always pull up the info you want unless you get the search params just right.

    Now on with the show!
