Winds of change?

Still can’t get the buzzer to buzz – this is starting to be a bit of a recurring theme. Thanks to Pete, Bob and Bill from the Electronics school, I’m not sa as down about it as I was a couple of weeks ago. What it does mean though is a bit of a re-think on the roles of the components that make the Simontron up. Originally the Simon was gonna be the key. It was gonna send signals to the PC via the Wiring board which in turn will remember and “play” the sequence of buttons pressed back to the Simon. Now though, with the generating of the sound being done by the pulse circuits board the Simon will have less to do. The buttons will still need to be pressed and the lights will still need to flash but I think the Wiring board will now be the integral part. For example if blue has been pressed, something will need to control which sound is played and I think using Wiring to control it is the answer.

Ask me again in a couple of days when I’ve tried to connect up a test 🙂
