Re: VUPPM500 KIT Build Thread

Both have been built and calibrated successfully! The build is pretty simple, even without step by step instructions. Ran into a few snags on the first build but the 2nd one was much faster to assemble. A couple of pointers: Display PCB 1. Long lead of the LEDs go through the pad with a square. 2. S...

Re: VUPPM500 KIT Build Thread

Success! Now I just need to calibrate it.

Also with respect to passing through audio and have it have both input & output. Is it possible to do this on a normal VPR Rack like a CAPI 511-VPR?

Thanks for your help!

Re: VUPPM500 KIT Build Thread

Oops, I think I figured it out. When joining the LED PCB to the MAIN PCB I only soldered together one side. For some reason I wasn't thinking and thought it was for just holding it together, but it actually is to connect all the components and LEDs. Go figure when building it at 1am. Will bridge the...

Re: VUPPM500 KIT Build Thread

So the unit is built, but it looks like it's only outputting signal to the left meter. When I try to go into test mode it doesn't seem to do anything. Also when pressing the middle and right switches (peak switches) it doesn't appear to do anything either. Any thoughts on what went wrong? Going to g...

Re: VUPPM500 KIT Build Thread

Thanks for the add Joe! I'm currently putting together the first of 2 VUPPM500 modules. I've assembled all of the PCB's but haven't put it together yet. A couple of questions: 1. When connecting the LED PCB to the MAIN PCB, do you recommend using excess leads from resistors to connect it together or...
