No not your fault :) I added the 'demo' option while testing the ADJ function, so I've only added X&Y to the menu. It will happily display four (or more) scales.

Each PIC has the same code, on power up each one detects the status of its pin5, then assigns itself as X,Y,Z or W. When the PIC detects a scale it informs the VB app, which then adds a display panel)
That's quite neat, you have thought of everything. I recognised that the ASM code was the same for all PICs on the board which is also a smart move.

I managed to load the project and ASMs and do a successful 'Make' with all of the Include files as well. I just needed to change the location for the files as I don't have a D:\ drive. - it all looks good so far


I use 1.5-2m screened cables (soldered to the scale). It would be wise to route them away from strong noise sources.
That's quite a healthy length, much longer than I would need.


Thanks Bill.
