Re: HP 141T CRT Question


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I looked at the video.? It's an off-the-shelf ST MICRO development board (which means all the hard stuff is done) with a simple set of buffers.

The software (not that I've seen it) looks like a touchGFX interface (software framework available free as is the compiler) because of the rounded buttons.? It should be a relatively straightforward program to do, since you don't have to write the software infrastructure.? The most complicated part would be the normalization and the A/D capture routines with display.? The system would be running multiple tasks with FreeRTOS.?

It should be noted, though, that this is a CRT replacement, and not a replacement control panel for the entire equipment, so interfacing from the display back to the equipment is not covered.

If the display is physically small enough, you could mount it in the panel opening for the original CRT with a 3D printed bezel to make it look pretty, I'd think.

Hi N7JA
Fantastic!
I'm very happy to know you've finished the work on the kluge that VK2SEB left hanging 4 years ago.
Great, can you point us/me to the source code, and pcb files.
Best regards.
