Yes everything went into the back. I used a Toroidal transformer same as shown in the tutorial, it gets a little warm but not hot. I used the circuit board from the inside of the wallbox plug for 5 volt power supply for the wallbox and USB socket although you can buy these cheap on ebay also.

I am please with it, i just wish the speaker/jack switch did what it was supposed to do so I could easily switch between wired speakers and bluetooth speakers.

Sorted, tried it on my laptop and it worked ok, re installed Java on my PC and it works ok now.

[thatsmesd]

Tried again today, I open the application, select the wallbox type, click continue to playlist, click the “Choice Folder” button, select the folder with 16 mp3 files in it then click open, it then just shows the selected folder & first song title in the top right hand box where is said “select MP3 file”, nothing showing in any of the title or artist boxes, I thought it should list all the tagged mp3 files on the folder I selected?
Am I doing something wrong?

Sorry meant to say does the reduced price or exchange apply to v1.5 & v2 when released.

[thatsmesd]

When I purchased my first V1.4 you mailed me offering the new v2 for less than 50 euro or a straight swap for my v1.4 when its released, does this still apply to v1.4 and the new v2 when its released, if it does apply how do I get the offer?

I thought the 24v “Com” was connected to the chassis?

[thatsmesd]

My pages are same A1,B1,C1 etc, it was playing 11 ahead because my box had a fault, when the fault was cleared it then played 10 ahead which is when I discovered the file names should be sel011 to sel210

The first 10 selections have been skipped and sel201 to sel210 added

A1 = sel011, B1 = sel021, C1 = sel031 through to V1 = sel201
A0 = sel020, Bo = selo30, C0 = sel040 though to V0 = sel210

No the title strips are wrong, it needs to be sorted really as does the skipping problem, I don’t mean to be hard on the developers and I know this is an ongoing project but the emulators are being sold as a working product, it’s not the buyers job to beta test the emulators or the software.

Anyhow, I am stuck now waiting for the V2 to be released as I intend to put one in the 3WA, hope its before christmas.

I took sooners advice and checked the pulse count.

I connected a multimeter with a continuity buzzer to the signal screw & contact arm and wound manually with no power connected to check the pulsing train.

I had a small problem with the number key releasing slightly too early which sometimes caused an extra number pulse, sorted it by adjusting the latch bar screws and its ok now.

I then spent hours figuring out why it played the wrong songs, it turns out the correct selection numbers should be sel011 to sel210 not sel001 to sel200 so I had to renumber all 200,  it would have been a great deal of help if the manual had shown this in the first place.

Hope V2 sorts these sort of issues.

Still getting wrong or no songs sometimes when I select several at the same time, usually play the first ok but then either no song or the wrong one, perhaps its down to the temp wiring I am using, I will see how it goes when installed full with heavier gauge wire.

Thanks Sooner I will give that a go, just an update, I tried several selections and it appears to play the song 11 selections past the one I press with the exception being the 1 & 2 buttons play the same song. e.g.
A1 plays B2
A2 plays B2
A3 plays B4
A4 plays B5
A5 plays B6
A6 plays B7 etc,
Any “V” selection does not play anything

The sd card has been configured for a 3WA wallbox but  still plays the wrong songs, on most selections it plays one number out, I press B1 and it plays B2 etc, the pages on my wallbox start in the middle and run A1, B1, C1 etc but I have seen pictures of some 3WA wall boxes that show the page numbering A1, A2, A3 etc. I don’t think that the problem though.

Will you be emailing past customers when the new version is ready?

The speakers are 4 ohm 3 watt 65mm speaker, they came from some of the none working job lot of dab radios I purchased at auction, glad I kept them, I padded the inside walls with some thin foam and the front material is from he radio.
The napkin holders are cheap to buy but a little flimsy when you remove the chrome front, ok when reassembled though.

I am now waiting for a Seeburg 3WA to be delivered, not sure if I will fit the emulator & transformer underneath this time, I might look at fitting behind the wallbox as I still want the coin mech to work.
