I need to 3d print a new front!
Let us know, if you have any success, interesting !
thanks for the great content
You are welcome
using Breadboard or Arduino Female to Male jumpers on that resistor board would make connecting it easier. Attach the female ends to the resistor board, and you can plug the male ends straight into your breadboard or attach alligator leads to them.
Took a bit of working out initially, not done much with them since, thanks for comment.
Can you do a short video on your findings of radials for elevated vertical antennas. I can't watch 4 two hour long livestreams to get the skinny.
I will endever to do as you say, was thinking of condencing each series, good idea.
Great! Would you please share the platformio.ini configuration? I'm struggling to get the correct setup for the ESP32-S3-WROOM-2-N32R8V board.
Had to ditch ElegantOTA as could not easy customise and would have had to pay for commercial licence, so asked chatGBT to write me a Web interface, which worked surprisingly lol, I will show you in a live stream soon !
Can it be modified into a USB cable? And can be used on a PC?
I doubt it, thanks for the comment though.

Hi Dave, i have a question it's not related to the video. maybe you'll have an idea how to do this: I have a samsung VFD display (1x16 characters) out of a maygay fruitmachine, i would like to be able test/program it from a computer without using the fruitmachine itself. I have seen some forum post people having used a raspberry pi, but no clear instruction how to actually do it except it's it talks via SPI. maybe i'd make a nice video episode too :) thanks
Sorry for delay in response, It should be possible to attach it to an Arduino micro controller, it would need to be able to handle the high voltages, may be better to use a spare VFD display controller PCB and just send characters to that board, try to send me a photo of it and I can take a look, you can find me on twitter X, same name.
@@davepauljones no worries Dave, i've send you a message on twitter but not sure if you got it?
@@redsunpost did not get message, sorry.
😂 P r o m o S M
Yes I should, maybe next time, cheers
Good evening
Good Evening, thanks for the comment.
Hello, I know I am late but I am also looking to make a project like this. Firstly I want to ask if the espcam and the inmp441 mic operate simultaneously to stream audio and video? Last time I tried I found out that I can either operate the camera or the mic at one time. Secondly, I am having a problem with transmitting audio through the mic. I have tried to use udp and mqtt both to transmitt raw pcm audio to my mobile application but it is just a noise that changes in amplitude when there is sound near the mic. The external i2s amp from the above comment sounds like a good idea. According to your experience, what do you suggest can be the problem and what I can do. Also for the speaker I am using the max98375a i2s amp but the issue is same it works normally on examples but while streaming audio from my mic, it is noisy. I will be thankful if you can provide some insight since I am fairly new in this. Most of the communication Ive done is through mqtt so I can access the streams from anywhere in the world. Also might I add, you've done a wonderful job here, I'll look forward to watching more of your videos.
Thank you for your interest, in this project, sorry for the delayed response back. The UPAS project basically burn't me out, as I was working on it since 2012, while holding down a 48 hour a week day job, also I my Daughter passed away durring the pandemic age 29, so I had the stuffing knocked out of me, but I have been working on a project for the last 8 weeks, called Event Horizon, which I'm trying to get finished, I made it Open Source by the way GPLv3, its on GitHub, so long story short, I'm going to get back ontrack with UPAS Project and change it to Open Source GPLv3, so interested parties can help with the project, from what you have said in your comment, you have progressed more than me on the actual video and audio side, I've put infrastructure in place to make it all happen, a back end if you like, so it's now time to progress onto getting the video sream & audio working. The issues as I understand most poeple have is noisy audio, you have to do it via I2S, as anything analogue will introduce noise, as it will get interferance from the microcontroller / switch mode PSU's / & wireless WiFi & Bluetooth signals, so you have to do it from I2S, I have tried the ESP32 Cam demo, & can see the potential there. So once again thanks for interest, watch this space, comming soon to a cinema near....Look forward to more colaboration from the community, well done on your progress.
@@davepauljones Im so sorry for your loss. I'm still actively working in this project and trying other methods like http for remote and tcp for local reliable communication but it's still in the testing and prototyping phase. The mic data is actually coming through i2s and I'm not using the analogue yet. Also I have discovered this awesome library called arduino audio tools. I'm thinking I should modify it for my needs. Thank you for your reply and I'll look forward to your upcoming projects and an update on this one. Also if I get any leads I'll be sure to give an update here or on your github. Cheers!
I'm working on a very similar project. My 1st attempt used the ESP-32 internal AD to process the mic input which was not good. I used an op-amp and all it did was introduce intrinsic noise. The 2nd attempt was to us an I2C mic/amp board which improved the audio input signal tremendously. Now I am stuck with improving the audio codec from PCM to Opus to help with the audio transmission.
Thanks for your comment, sorry for delay in reply. I need to get back on track again, seemed to have had a break from it last few months, getting interest like this comment, will inspire me to continue on. I will use i2S mics & amplifier, for the exact same reason of noise, microcontrollers with analogue, with minimal filtering decrete components, are problematic, hense let the i2S mic & amp circuitry do all the work as they are designed to coexist with microcontroller frequencies. Looks like you are ahead of me, well done, just burnt myself out over last 10 years working on UPAS, maybe can get back too it, with more interest.
@davepauljones nice! No worries. I've been working in the same field of work for 20 years in (software development, and I now want to buy a farm and just drive a tractor around and feed animals! The intercom project was also started almost a year ago, then put on hold after the microphone debacle. Thought it would just work with internal ADs. Apparently, they are just good enough for simple projects. Just finished a ghost detector for my son, so I'm back on the intercom to finish it. Sorry for the ramble 😀
@@davepauljones Here's a test video of the last project for my son that consumed my extra time. It's for ghost and spirit hunting: ua-cam.com/video/CWPUtxl9RF8/v-deo.html
Looks like an interesting project, thanks for sharing.
Hi Damien, thanks for your interest in the ESP32 Audio Video Intercom project, will be resuming work on it again soon.
@@davepauljones Excellent!
Will be available as open source?
UPAS is based on open source hardware, its my intension to open source the project in various ways, hense the live streams, thanks for you interest, should be more work on it comming soon!
@@davepauljonesany updates about the project
@@ahmedalirm233 Hello and thanks for the comment, I have been working on the UPAS KP V2 web interface all year, I decided to try to get some momentum on the UPAS project by concentrating on getting the UPAS KP V2 Engine ready as a product available to resellers, once I can get enough interest in the project by moving some controllers, this would allow me to proceed with the audio and video side of the intercom, all the work on the web interface for the UPAS KP V2 Engine has not gone to waist, as this is the same device used in the intercom project. As far as the hardware, it remains based on open source hardware design, so can be programmed using the Arduino IDE or Platform IO, see the main website for more information at upasltd.co.uk, where there is alot of information, roadmap etc. Comming soon will be the 1st firmware release as a bin file, also a download for the main UPAS windows desktop software. Thanks for your interest and have a good day.
Hi, am having a similar issue with an EPOCH machine. Looks like PSU is OK (all supply rail LEDs lit) but +VDISP on the main board isn't lit. Machine doesn't boot, reset led keeps flashing. No light on the lamp board. Do you have a copy of the service manual? Tried looking online but doesn't seem to exist any more.
No sorry, don't have service manual.
Hi Dave, very helpful video series. Do you happen to know the value of capacitor C6? mine's blown, much appreciated :)
Good morning, sorry for the delay in response. I went back to the PCB and tried measuring C6 while in circuit, could not be measured, so I removed it with my hot tweezers and measured 113 to 114 nano farads on my fluke meter. Be midfull thats from a none working PCB, but should be about right. Hope this info helps & thanks for the comment.
@@davepauljones good Morning to you as well, that is awesome. It was the only component that visibly was damaged on mine, the machine just keeps trying to boot up endlessly and sometimes made it to boot (left a giant burn mark in the pcb at c6) . Was working fine before this. Mpu looks to be tiptop. Thanks again 👍😀
@@davepauljones I was fortunate to get hold of the schematics, do you have an email adress i can forward them to? :)
@@redsunpost yes just send to same name as channel @gmail.com, thanks in advance, thanks for the sub
@@redsunpost Yes its davepauljones@gmail.com
I'd be interested to know if you ever got to the bottom of why it wasn't running, I suspect maybe transistors going bad or the big caps.
Hi James, it turned out that the PSU was ok & not the problem, what made me suspect the PSU was a conflict between the service manual PSU voltages at the terminal, to what I was actually getting, the -12 volts was only -3 volts, long story short I purchased another working PSU of ebay and had the exact same voltages, so looks like you can not test the PSU correctly while not connected to a working machine. It turned out to be the mainboard, I purchased another working one from ebay & that fixed the problem. The mainboard probably needs a recap & onboard battery removing & relocating with flying leads. Seems like some part of the PSU is not enabled until the mainboard is attached, which makes the voltages appear incorrect values. I do have some other videos regardingmaygay PSU, thats for watching.
@@davepauljones Epoch main boards are not good, they usually go at the vias and any corrosion from the battery takes them out. They are not easy to work on either which makes them even more of a pain. Reason for asking was because I have a couple of PSU's down atm, will have a look and see if I can figure them out.
Hi dave. what is the value of the. R20 resister and d1 dion
Hi Jason, sorry for delay getting back to you, I have just checked it with 2 meters, R20 is reading open circuit, colour code is brown black black orange brown, think its 100k ohms 1%, not sure though, D1, looks a weard one, band is in the middle, so this may have been my problem. I ended up shorting a chip out, so I purchase a whole PSU in the end, it did cure it though, hope this helps.
Is this what happens after he gets lobotomized?
No he is fully awake, maybe he will feel better, on the footplate of a green mallard

Don't give up ya day job mate I came across this video looking for help to repair my exact same supply I will say one thing tho I had a giggle and have subbed i found out the info I needed to repair mine which was cap values hopefully I'll have better luck than you I'll keep you imformed
Thanks for that, I purchased another PSU in the end, it had the exact same voltages, so the PSU was ok, the voltages indicated by the LED's are not what you get, so that through me out, any way it turned out to be the main board with the roms on, I purchased a replacement, and the Itailian Job now works fine, just need to repair the old one, think it needs a recap.
Wow them are some fat fingers
U A JOKE
WoW when will this be available for purchase please give us details details details!!!!!
Dude try some showmanship
Great Video David !!
