    Lightbulb V-1 Programming Reference - simplified

    For some of us, "Mikes Lab" is a bit of a pain to weed thru.
    With all the Versions, it has an overwhelming look and feel.
    SO I changed the approach; (to accomidate MY brain) from a Graphic presentation to a Text-based, simpler and a bit more Linear, presentation.

    It prints out from my XP machine, for a handy reference

    Hey - It works for me . . . .

    I have looked over the manual for a V1 and your text helps clear up some of the mess. Thanks.

    Meh...6, half dozen, doesn't melt my butter, but if it helps someone better understand the binary nature of it, I'm more than pleased.

    Needs a table, though.

    Table > Insert > Table

    It's a good start. Should help newbies if they are confused. Making a table will be good idea


    Good job making the reference sheet

    Thumbs up Re: V-1 Programming Reference - a different approach

    the file in the original post was updated last week.

    Areas of focus:

    • Understandability; Mikes Lab is a pain to grasp, the first few times ya look at it. One needs to read about K-band muting a number of times to actually get it.
    • Readability; in a dimly lit vehicle, on a rainy night (it happens); Everything is easier on a sunny summer day . .
    • Printer Friendly; a generic format that is frugal with ink


    (I'll go to a pdf. later as *I* don't have that ability)

    Thanks to all for your feedback and contributions

    I'm seeing a sticky in the works here . . . .

    I use CutePDF for nearly everything.

    After you double-click to install, it comes up as a printer in all the printer drop downs. Select 'CutePDF', enter a filename, and click save.

    Y'all don't just memorize his table so you can reprogram on the fly? It used to be bookmarked on my phone but it's just faster when you know what each one does.

    +1 I may have learned to rough through it the hard way but if it helps someone else stay in the hobby and keep from trading in the V1 for a leaky cobra then I'm all for it.
