PC related.

1. must be an XP laptop as far as I am concerned.

2.  On the little Aspire we use, the usb port matters.

3. AEGIS folder is called AE1720.

AE876 NOT FOUND. Check battery, check virtual serial port installed for your particular USB adapter.

 

Must hear dingdong when USB is plugged in.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When is the friction check due on a Falcon 50 H stab

 

For F50 N98DH, the fwd H-Stab, (Normal) motor is P/N 1234-2, S/N 206, monted on Stab Jack P/N 021121-09.    S/N 332.

 

Normla motor is p/n 1234-2

 

That means the stab jack is compliant with SB F50-267, and SB F50-247.

So, brake current check and instpect and clean are not due at the 12 month check.

 

Here is some of the early analysis.

PRE SB

you have Stab Jack P/N 021121-01 or 021121-05 or 021121-05 AND Normal motor P/N 1234.

Brake holding check and Check is due at the 12 month AND check and clean is due at the 12 month.

 

POST-SB 147

 

you have any stab jack with stab normal motor p/n 1234-1.Drop out current check  is not required. inspectand clean  is due at every 12 month check.

 

POST S/B F50-267

you have any P/N 021121-09 stab jack, with normal motor 1234-2,  Check and cleaning not required, drop out current not required.

Online G-Code editor, JSCUT

New recommendation as of spring 2022, untested.

MakerCam was the easiest to deal with.
It is dead with the death of flash.

 

http://jscut.org/jscut.html# seems pretty easy to use.
Starts from SVG, watch the upper right corner for promts….
Gcodes that are added to the output file.

S100 ;set spindle speed
M3 ;turn on spindle
M5 ;turn off spindle

For 7X Coupling, the set up is:
turn cutter DIA up to .126
.2 pass width, gcode units inch, Xoffset – Y offset =0.
create operation pocket .125
cut the last block of code and put it at the end

December  2020 steps for face cut:
use OODraw to generate svg
JSCUT has difficulty “Picking” objects with no FILL.
so solid fill all objects with black, and line black
ARRANGE order seems to matter,
so if there is a bounding box, send to back

intuWiz software was used for some other cut files with simple shapes

Lion battery repair

 

brand new fancy “drop in” lion battery intended to be used for home generator start battery.

 

Failed out of the box, with no support from the manufacturer.

 

out comes the dremel.

 

 

 

These look bigger than the 18650 cells.  Could these be the newer tesla cels? 21700 or even 26650?
