    Altec PC-410 PID Temperature Controller

    Hi i need help identifying the value of some burnt resistors. I have accidentally pluged the controller upside down. Upon inspection I saw some burrnt resistors I don't know if anything else got damaged. If anyone has the same controller maybe can take some photos of the board.

    CONTROLLER NAME AND MODEL ALTEC-PC410

    Thanks

    blown transistor mid-right too.
    CAN A MOD CHANGE THE TITLE TO "Altec controller" ??

      Can you take a photos? Your resistors are in tact? I just need the code. I can check the transistor for you if you like. Also, what happend to your controller?

          Oh OK. I didn't even notice that transistor. I hope someone can take photos so I can identify the parts

            By the way the thing still has power. I had to change the top223yn because it had no power. After changing, was putting it back to the housing I didn't notice it was upside down. Hence the damage,

              if a topswitch device blows, its usually caused by the startup capacitor.
              a 10uf to 47uf electrolytic nearby.

              i have to fix several hundred sattelite recievers with that problem once.

                Blown heated blanker controller. Trying to figure out these smd resistors
                by Widget
                Hello,

                We have one of those heated throw blankets you plug into AC power. The other day it went *bzzzbzzzbbzz... pop*, so I opened it up to find what appears to be two resistors gone *poof*. (R7 & R14 in picture)

                luckily, we have a second blanker with what appears to be identical controller, so I opened it up to take a picture

                According to the good controller PCB, R7 = 9531, & R14 = 103

                Online SMD resistor calculator says

                R7 - 9531 = 95.3kohm
                R14 - 103 = 10kohm

                Is this correct? Would all I need is a 10k...

                Altec PC410 Auto PID Tune
                by VaNDAL_UK
                Hi,

                Anyone know how to get the Altech PC410 to initiate a P.I.D Tune?

                I can see the option, turn it on and it just flashed "tune" but nothing happens. Even tried running a profile after selecting tune.

                I remember doing it years ago on another machine but for the life of me I can't work it out this time.

                TIA.

                ASUS ROG Strix- G513IH-HN008, G513-6050A3249301- MB-A04 (A4) damaged Embedded Controller
                by master3112
                I have an ASUS ROG Strix- G513IH-HN008, motherboard G513-6050A3249301- MB-A04 (A4)

                When I received the device, the device has no function. After an investigation, I found that the PWM CONTROLLER RT6575B (U6100) is getting warm and there is a short circuit at the 3V3 output. This normally supplies 3V3 for the embedded controller IT5571E-128 (U301). When measuring and analyzing with a thermal imaging camera, I found that some components are damaged: SLG4E42553VTR (U8500), IT5571E-128 (U301), LAN RTL8111H (U450), LOGIC 74LVC1G08GW (U1900), RT6575B (U6100) All these components are on...

                Schematic vs. Reality: Where Are the Resistors on My Sharp Clock Radio? Model FY-70CH
                by TinkerTron
                Hey everyone,

                I'm currently working on a mid-70s Sharp Electronic Digital Clock Radio, Model FY-70CH. I found the service manual online, printed it out, and have been studying it for a while. My main reasons for tackling this are: (1) I want to learn electronics and figured I'd start with something I had on hand, and (2) I want to fix its issues. Right now, the radio sounds awful, has about 5V DC at the speaker terminals, and the alarm time setting doesn't work. But I'm not asking how to fix these problems.

                Instead, here's what's been bugging me so far:
                The schematic...

                AcuRite 5 in 1 temperature sensor replacement repair
                by CapLeaker
                Got a new victim:

                AcuRite 5 in 1 Iris outdoor weather station not updating the temperature / humidity anymore. The original sensor is a SHT21. Also there are identical other sensor manufacturers. I chose the HTU21D to replace the original SHT21. Both have identical specs. I've had two failure modes with these sensors.
                A: outside temp stuck at -40? It's cold here at times in Canada, but not that cold!
                B: stuck at some temperature and maybe updating once in 12 hrs or so.

                Easy solution is to go to AcuRite website and purchase the sensor. Right?...
