Well, some personal issues finally cleared enough for me to put together my beta board (V2) of the DMX Tester.
The build went very smoothly. Anyone who has put together something like the Lynx Dongle will have no problems with this build. I basically followed the the same steps that were used in the build video although I think it would have been almost as easy to do even without the video. The only parts that confused me slightly were the the 3 capacitors that went into areas on the board with 3 holes instead of 2. I installed them the way the build video showed. I would recommend that a build manual clearly explain how to install those 3 caps once this is available via coop. I did substitute in a ST485BN chip as has been previously discussed in this thread. I have not cut holes in the case yet for mounting so I did all my testing without the case.
As a beta tester I always hope to find issues I can report back, but in this case "it just works". I ran through tests on one of my LE's and was unable to find a problem testing the channels, values, and features like "pulse".
I didn't have a chance to install the wireless option on the board yet, but I may get to that this weekend.
This is clearly a tool that many DLA members will want to have for both troubleshooting and testing components of your display. Kudos to David and his team.
