#263 8 years ago

I have had the Pinbits trunk eddy board for 7 years or so now and haven't had any issues. Is this new Ingo board something that I would need? I am trying to figure out if I may need it down the road or if the Pinbits trunk eddy board which has worked great for 7 years is all that I need.

What exactly does the new Ingo board fix that is not fixed by the Pinbits board? Sorry for the questions, but I just want to know if this is something that I will need down the road when these new Ingo boards are NLA in which case I will pick one up now.

Thanks.

Quoted from german-pinball:

pinbits does not sell a trunk-opto-board, you have the "pinbits auto eddy board", this board ist the best auto eddy board, you can get, but it solved another problem.
The problem, the Leon-Board solves, is perfectly shown and described in the video, canea made in post #57. If you have this error, you need the Leon board.
If you have installed the GLM trunk-opto-board, there is absolutly no need, to put in another trunk-opto-board, because the GLM board is very good and very reliable. Then you would also need the Leon-board and mount it on top of the GLM trunk-opto-board.
If you have installed the original trunk-opto-board (not so reliable), you have the following options:
1.) leave it in and hope, that is does not make trouble and mount the Leon-board on top of the original trunk-opto-board or
2.) take a GLM trunk-opto-board and mount the Leon-board on top of the GLM trunk-opto-board
3.) take my single trunk-opto board + the Leon-board and mount the Leon-board on top of the new trunk-opto-board
4.) take the combo-board and install it
Hope, that helps.

Thanks for the detailed explanation and pointing me to the video in post # 57 as a reference for the issue.

Quoted from german-pinball:

Here is a little video with the single trunk-opto-board together with the little tester - you see, you can test the board outside of the pinball machine:

Hi Ingo,

That tester board for the TOM board is really slick. Do you have a similar tester board that works with your TZ clock board?

Thanks.

Quoted from german-pinball:

YES, I have - for all products I build, I have a tester.
You can see my tester for the TZ-Clock-Board here, post #39 + #41 - you can see there my tester and the one I have built for borygard (rob has the better one ):
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/now-available-ingos-tz-clock-board-borygard-le-version
A few years ago I even built a tester for both my TZ-clock-Board and the orginal TZ-clock-Board. This tester was hand-etched and is in australia, see following pics:

TZ-clock Tester 2.jpg
I do not have this universal tester for myself, but have this one only built one times for my friend Rob in australia.
If you are a member on aussie arcade forum, there is some more info:

Here is the first video of my TZ-clock-Board (I think, it was board revision 1.0) ever with the tester built on bread-board.
» YouTube video
Why do you ask, do you have problems with the clock board?

No problems, I recently ordered both a TZ clock board and TOM combo board from you. It will be great to have a tester board should the need ever arise. The idea of a tester board to fully test the optos is a great idea.

I was told that my recent order will be shipped out in the next 3-4 weeks or so which is fine.

Thanks.
