Hi RJ,
Just curious, how do you keep track of what start address you have set for your SSC?
Did you mention the size of the pvc pipe?
Thanks
Rick R.
I write on the Cat 5 end
I'm using 4" at the moment but the new pcb's have been shaved to fit in 3" pvc. Kidding!!!!!!!!!
It is 1" water pipe not the regular pvc. This is the thin wall light stuff that is really cheap. The thicker wall you would need bigger pipe (1 1/2" ?? ), it would cost more and be heavier.
You get it a HD or Lowes for like I think $1.29 for ten feet. You can make like 30 of them out of one piece. Can't get a cheaper case. The ends cost more.
once is is complete I pvc glue the bottom end to keep water out. Then the top pops on and of to program/ update.
the tops are tight enough to keep water out but if you worry you can put some silcone rtv around the edge of the cap.
Then you pull the cables tight and then silicone the cables going in both end well and let them dry for a few hours.
So far has worked very well. I forgot to program one string and got the tree up. So I popped the top jumpered it and programmed it on the tree. then popped the top on.
It rained most all day and now the sun is out and I just tried the tree out and have no issues.
