We will help you to get it working Andy, no worries.

And when it works you don't have to worry about blinding people when your chinese chopstick galvo's are having a meltdown

Received the package, boards looks nice. Thanks McCarrot for organizing this group buy!

Thanks greenailien,

Since I have a son I have chronically time too short, sorry for that...

[greenalien]

No problem, thanks are due to Google Translate rather than to me!

I'm currently trying to decide if it's sensible to use the scanner PSU to also power the scanfail board - because it's a +24v 0v -24v supply, it looks suitable, but since part of the reason for fitting the scanfail is to guard against the failure of the scanner PSU, I'd like to check that it's permissable.

As I understand it, the scanfail won't pass a signal unless it's powered up, so it seems to me that it should be OK - anyone else care to comment?

Also, the manual seems to suggest that the board may need cooling if operated at these voltages - how should that be done?
