Hopefully, he will be able to fix his problem with the channel memory. As a side note, my late mom had this same model scanner and it exhibited the same problems as John is having. So it would appear this problem was happening to other BC855XLT scanners too.

There is nothing "neutral" about a neutral. And why it is that if there are only three wires from the House (Main) panel to the sub panel, an additional SEPARATE ground must be provided in the Pump House, as that third wire is now, de-facto, the neutral.   As it happens, there is no reason not to have multiple GROUNDS within a system, as long as there is one, and only one Neutral. I remember back in the day the master-electrician I worked for was a fanatic about balancing loads as closely as practical, even in a residential application. If loads are exactly balanced, then from the Panel to the Pole, the neutral will carry no current at all. But within the residence, pretty much every neutral will carry load. Easily demonstrated with an ammeter.   Peter Wieck Melrose Park, PA

They >need to be separate. I knew that. Ground and neutral only bonded in the main panel. When I wired my shop I brought all the grounds from the CNC and manual machines back to the main panel to avoid ground loops. The control makers stressed that ground loops are to be avoided. Eric

How did I "cause" a problem by plugging a toaster oven into the other outlet?

I just had to reverse the length and width specs.   There are still two components I have been unable to locate, what I believe is a line filter (a bifilar toroid with bifilar input and output) and a 9 pin flyback. Nothing comes up in cross reference online nor on the database Target 3001 offers, so would welcome any suggestions as to what to do here.   Otherwise, I think I'm ready to proceed.

Jeff Urban <jurb6006@gmail.com>: Feb 26 10:54PM -0800 >Not all components on the circuit >board can be readily identified   That can be a problem. You probably have to do it manually but then figure out how to work it into the drawing in the software.   Another thing is two sided boards have been around for a longtime, I have no idea how you put that together but you can bet you have to depopulate the board to get a picture of it.   It might be a good idea to try it on a board that you know, well the schematic of. You can get used to what kind of errors and other shit you can run into.   If you got more than a two sided board, like four layers which are in many things now, such a program will not do much good. The outer foil patterns could be nothing but a power plane and a ground plane. The real works is hidden underneath.
