i did have an issue though –
your last post offered two modded firmwares with all the features, except that you offer one fw with dim sensor, and one fw for us who don’t have a dim sensor.
since i don’t have a dim sensor, i tried to verify that *.ino file, but it fails,
but if i verify & use the fw with the dim sensor code, that one works and does not fail, but then the issue is i don’t have a dim sensor, so the digits are very dim.
so i am wondering, if only the fw without the dim sensor code in it is failing verification or compiling, is that something i can fix, or does it require your help?

thanks again for this update, so now your final modded bios includes –
– preventing that ‘pink panther’ bootup song
– better adjusting the led backlighting
– the ability to dim the tubes during certain times (night)
– the ability to adjust the fade in/out of digits
– a choice of having the date as MONTH / DAY / YEAR
plus things i do no personally use since i don’t have the sensors, such as
– able to show temperature every minute
– the ability to adjust auto-dim based on ambient lighting
and probably other features i am unaware of.

thank you so much vasques for that replacement info,
now the clock does not show the temperature every minute since i do not have anything to monitor temperature.

if you should happen to stop by here again, i did have two final things, that would make this modded firmware by you perfect for me –

1. is there code i can alter in order to not have it show both forms of the hour every second )i.e. when it flashes between 08 and 20, or 11 and 23, every second), i would like it to either show one or the other constantly

2. is it possible to have the date show as MONTH DAY YEAR instead of the default DAY MONTH YEAR

thanks again for all you effort, as this nixie board is nice but its shame the creators haven’t done much with updating firmware and adding options, whereas you yourself have taken it on and done a good job allowing me to alter many options i always wanted instead of the default firmware.
take care

this msg is for vasques666, of whom i got their modified firmware for this board.

the firmware is great, in that now i can have the tubes dim at the times i desire.
it also gets rid of that startup song when the units powered up.
it also has a better color selection ability of the colored leds on the base of each tube.

but there is one feature in this custom firmware that i would like to remove, because i do not have a temperature sensor.
can i know what lines can be removed from the firmware to disable this feature – the clock, every minute at the :30 second mark for a few seconds shows the temperature. i have no sensor so it means every minute i see 5 seconds of 01.0

thanks for any help. also, for anyone looking to install this custom firmware, he posted a link to it on his youtube page here (in the comments section)
