I don't know what the pull-up's resistors would do or where they would go ? I was liking what I was readin . but this Arduino stuff is all new to me . if it was a bolt or a motor I could figgure it outÂ
tks

I eventually gave up on this. Got the Arduino to read my HF calipers, even got it to work with TouchDRO for a bit. But, there wasn't much support, and TouchDRO was too unstable on 2 different Android Tablets. A few computer/Arduino crashes and I lost the Arduino code that worked. I spent a lot of time and effort to get to the point I was at, and wasn't interested in starting over...
I still think it's doable, but I have moved on to other interests...

Just ask and we can help. No fear of getting ridiculed here. It's not allowed.

I'm going to have to pick your brains Ed and Vinny, as I eventually want to use an Arduino to drive my dividing head. I'll start a new post once I get there. The machining stuff will not be the problem but the code will...

I still need to finish mine up. There's not much left to do, just other things got in the way. Should have more time starting in January.
