Thread: First attempt at wiring

  1. #1

    Default First attempt at wiring

    Hey, I am attempting to wire up my first saber with a pre-wired nano biscotte v3

    I have a few caveats though..... as I said I am using a pre-wired nano biscotte v3, and I want to use the pre-wire set. I also want to do this without a kill switch. I have been reading the basic schematics and it seems as if its an easy enough bypass, as I can just connect the battery direct as opposed to having the kill switch.

    Yes I am aware of the power drain, however I am working with what I have, and I plan to have multiple batts for con-use anyways.

    I have a tri led, 2 orange, 1 white, so I can use flash on clash.

    A momentary activation switch

    1x 0.5 ohm resistor, and 2x 1.2 ohm resistors
    the 1.2s are for the orange leds while the single .5 is for the white

    and a huge mess of color coded wires.

    I am looking for pointers in regards to my current diagram I drew up. I am hoping for some assistance to fill in the gaps for the FOC effects

    You going to need to read the manual. You have 9 pads on your NB, and the NB only has 7. The speaker is wired correctly, the power is backwards.. The switch and the LEDs need to be redone.
    We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.

    My diagram is going bassed on the pre-set wiring as seen here

    Also, can you link me to the manual? I cant find it for the life of me........

    A few of those pads have multiple wires connecting to them. That may be the source of your confusion.

    But isn't that still a usable format? If not, why did TCSS sell this kind at all?

    I just used this board. It's useable.

    Read the manual AND the description on TCSS for the orewired board to see what each wire is for

    Dont worry. You got this.

    Thanks for the encouragement, any chance I can see your setup if possible? Just so i can see what someone else has managedd to pull off.

    Every tutorial I find for this preset board does NOT include FOC

    I didn't take pics of my wiring. But if you look the listing for this board tells you what goes to what.

    Now what I did to make it easier was clipped off all the connectors soldered my splices.

    However I literally had two screens up, the TCSS list showing wire colors for this and the manual

    FoC is on page 14of the manual fyi

    Here's the diagram I used when wiring up my NB v3. Slightly different, of course, since it was a RGB, but you get the idea.

    Gerrylum, I'm trying to learn the math behind determining which resistors I should use and thought I had it figured out until I looked at some of the numbers in your diagram. If you wouldn't mind, could you post the math behind your resistor choices including the switch? Thanks in advance!
