    empty cell vs. Black chip. —Chris Magno
    has anyone else come across this dilemma: the light reading between a black chip and an empty C$ cell are VERY small. on the order of 1% other than adding a light to the sensor (which is clunky and only helps a little bit) OR do you put a light (...)

        Re: empty cell vs. Black chip. —Chris Magno
    (...) Kevin, you seem like a nice guy and all. I'm not sure about where they do thing where YOU come from, but out here we like to use more nouns, and verbs in our conversations. (except for IAIN) so what did you mean by "mirror" :) (21 years ago, 24-Dec-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

   (...) Hi Chris, You'll have to excuse me I'm not very experienced in this written communication thing....... I have my editors put in all those nouns and verbs things. I'm in it for the pictures.

        Re: empty cell vs. Black chip. —Chris Magno
    (...) ah ha. I see. good use of nouns and verbs. the rules do allow for reaching on the other side of the board, but at this late stage of the game it might be too late for me to do any major design work..... that being said I did some more (...)

   (...) I started off with percent mode, then switched to raw... but the number keep jittering and never settle down. I'm back to "square one."

   (...) Does adding more light help? If you were to add more lights it might change the readings. Grabbing at straws. How closed in do you have the sensor? Is ambient light giving you trouble? Kevin (...) (21 years ago, 24-Dec-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
   
        Re: empty cell vs. Black chip. —Chris Magno
    (...) the Lx sensor (cool pro way of saying light) is located about 3mm away from the cell. as of last night I had it scan the board and beep once or twice or not at all depending on chip colour. it seemed to work. I wrote of a simple 3 lines of (...) (21 years ago, 25-Dec-03, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
