HI Guys,

Can someone who has a white water please check the bigfoot opto settings for me. Now I have repaired the opto board it seem to be working fine, but if you take the opto board off the back of the motor (only 3 easy screws) and go into big foot opto test mode, and block out each opto with paper - the opto marked opto1 on the board, comes up as opto 2 on the test, and vice versa !!. I have checked all the wiring and its correct - is this a bug in the test setup? As like I say it now seems to be working fine !!

Done my bloody head in this machine I tell ya!!!

But at least it is now finally finished with a real topper as well !!

Cheers Kev
 
Here's what I found. In regular switch edge mode, blocking opto 1 shows opto 1 activated and blocking opto 2 shows 2 activated, as you would expect.

In bogfoot opto test mode, both opto 1 and opto 2 have an x in their boxes. When you block opto1, the x in Opto 2's box dissapears and vice verce.

Hope that helps, Kev
 
yeah its wrong as I said in the other post mate!! the bigfoot test is incorrectly showing the opto switches - they are reveresed
