Bitx40 No display

 

I just finished the build and I power it on and Have power to everything except the Display?

Nothing.... did I miss a wire? If I plug in to the mini usb it powers up..... any Ideas?
 

I would start with the simple and then go to more complex.?
Verify that you have the Raduino board plugged in correctly. I noted on my board that the socket on the Mac n board looks like the last pin connector has half of the plug left from when it was cut from the source strip.?

Next verify the 12v to the input of the 7805 regulator on the Radoino board.?

Fnally verify the tegulator output

the way the7805 is mounted in the Raduino board with the input closest to the main board, and output furthest away.?

I'm late to the disussion, but I'd load the Blink program to make sure the Nano is healthy, too.

The 7805 regulator is not supplying power to the Raduino. When you plug in the USB connector, power is being supplied by the regulator on the nano board using power from the USB port. ?
 

Make sure you adjust the pot that controls the backlight for the lcd. It goes from nothing to filling the screen. Careful adjustment is required to see anything.

Also check that the raduino isnt misaligned as mine has an extra partial row.
