Paul;

I don't remember what issue of Stunt News I published info on the board,
but I'll try to find the article on my other computer and send it to you via E-mail

Might take me awhile to find it.   Someone here might beat me to the punch

Couldn't find article, but here is picture of the timing board.

You connect the JMP per instructions when using a servo readout.   And then follow
the directions to calibrate the JMP timer.  If you have any questions
I can answer them here.

I wrote an article for CLW in 2009 (July issue?) that mentioned several ways to program timers. Will's method was covered in that issue.

Another option is using a pulse-width measuring instrument such as an oscilloscope, or the poor man's oscilloscope (PM-1) which measures pulses from well outside the nominal 1.0 to 2.0 ms range and displays them on a liquid crystal display. I have used it with the JMP.

Set up tool made as per Will's,worked, no problems.
Thanks to all you fellow modellers who have helped
with info on all parts of the electric setup.
System ran on the test bench yesterday,a big thankyou
to Alan Hahn,he has taken time to explain a lot of the
electric system to me.
