I have bought kit, I will let you know how I get on.
Thank you, Derek.

Yes, QUBATA 3.10 included.

Hi,

Received the kit of parts and built the interface, it worked first time.

All very straight forward. PCB quality excellent.


Regards,

Derek

Hi,

I had a closer look at the photograph of the top side of the Qubide #. It looks to me that you have got both Diodes the wrong round.

Also check the orientation of the SIL Resistor.

I can repair this if you require.


Regards,

Derek
