W*** related stress. by kahuana 2002-05-22 00:02:04
Spent last week pushing to get the electrical panels finished so i could test some software changes in the teleoperated rockbreaker control logic (Rockbreaker: think jackhammer, only 8 to 10 feet tall).

Friday afternoon we *finally* get all the electrical problems sorted out (it's bad when you can play the tune 'Louis Louis' using only pan/tilt relays. (NB: NEVER EVER EVER connect 33VAC to the 12VDC ground plane). Being late in the day, we decided to postpone my tests. Tuesday i'll just connect everyting up and verify everything is working...

Well, today is Tuesday. Apparently somebody didn't like the component layout... Control boxes are gutted, and they're drilling new mounting holes!

*wibble*
