The only way I can get this altimeter to power up is to move the Jumper off the Altitude block(3 pin) on to the the next set of pins(250 on 750 off) It will not power up with any of the wires from the 5 pin connection block. Anyone have the instructions for the older version?
TIA
Tim,
Yes... I've have used one of the early ALTS2 for years. The J1 3 pin block is simply the ON/OFFswitch. Thing to do is wire a remote switch to a 2 or 3 pin connector. There is no 250/750 setting. It's hardcoded at 250 for the ALTS2 and
750 for the ALTS2-50K.Also the Charges are as follows on the J2 5 pin block... Pin 1 (Black) & Pin 2 (Brown) are charge #1. Pin 4 (Orange) and Pin 5 (Yellow) are charge #2. Pin 3 (red) is not used.
NOTE: On the earlier version you need to Arm the ALTS-2 BEFORE any charges are hooked up (or switched on)! If the charges are hooked up before you turn it on chances are you're going to fire the charge(s)! Been there, done that, seen it happen to others. :(
If you need the spec sheet(s) drop me a line and I'll scan them for you.
