Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

PWM does not work on my color maximite

The board does not look like the schematic

there are six pins and not 3 on the connector

there are six surface mount resisters and capacitors

hard to change

which ones do I need to change to get the PWM working if any?

also the schematic does not appear in the new color maximite
hardware man pdf on Geoff site

When is the new software going to be installed on the color maximite?

IMHO it is the fastest and easiest to program and the best development
system in the world bar none. I am thinking about writing an article about
it for Servo Mag. An ordinary IDE is much harder to use.

I should know. I been in it from the begging. I am practically the father of the ARM
processor See the attached IEEE 1979 paper pdf and SuperKim stuff.

There are several models of Colour Maximite around. Which is your one? Where did you buy it?

IIRC ........

The PWM uses the audio out .
The LP network used filters out
most of the ' PWM ness '

Enables ' TONE ' command : )Edited by hitsware 2016-01-01

On the CGCOLORMAX2, two of the PWM pins on that header connect directly to the microprocessor pins.



The other pins are "audio' and after the RC filter.
