Does anyone have any tips for low-profile II connectors?
I’m hoping to mount my Terminal + expanders in a Behringer 104HP case, which is pretty shallow.

I have teletype and txi with regular headers in a mantis (should be very similar to behringer) and there’s plenty space…

I’ll give it a try with what I have, then.
Meanwhile, do I have to join the two boards with headers here?

It’s just for stability, IIRC

It also provides some additional ground plane unification. (I’ve never tested with it disconnected.)
Those headers look amazing, btw. Have the P/N handy for the male side?

I’ll add the extra 2-way header, then.
The male headers I used there are just bog-standard male 2.54mm square-pin pin-headers.
To get the correct length, I installed them upside-down, rather than trimming the long ends to fit into the low-profile socket.
I’m probably not going to use this approach next time, though, as this meant trimming the longer ends above the board, and it was hard to trim them neatly (especially on the top of the Teensy 3.6 board, where there wasn’t enough room between the header pins and the Teensy’s MCU to get my snips in to trim the pins down to the board).
The part number for the low-profile female header is in my post above.

I calibrated the txo CV with my decent meter. They are now the most precise CV outs i have and I use them as a reference for calibrating everything else…
I mean the CV inputs on the Teletype itself, and the TXi.
I don’t have a precision voltage source, so was wondering what people use to generate the voltages necessary to calibrate CV ins.

Hi I’m sorry for the dumb question if it’s already been answered
I recently used the bom link above I think it’s post 1413
to purchase the parts for a txo and txi from mouser
I received my order yesterday
And there are no pots, jacks or headers
Where do I get them and does anyone know what else is missing from that link
Thanx

Hi! Where are you located?
Fastest: Mouser
USA: Modular Addict, Synthcube…
Europe: Thonk, Exploding Shed, Befaco…
Always check bom fefore ordering

If you are in Europe, thonk is a good source for jacks and pots. Headers I usually get at mousers, or tayda ://www.taydaelectronics.com/connectors-sockets/pin-headers.html

Ok thank you I’m in New Hampshire
is there a better build of materials somewhere I can reference
Or do I have to copy and paste
from github bom ?
The BOM on github has everything.

Quick one: just wanted to double-check the Teensy is mounted the same way up on the back of the TXi as it is on the TXo (ie with USB socket at top).
Also, is it correct that you can’t change the waveform when using the TXo CV outputs in LFO mode (ie using TX.OSC.LFO etc.)?
Teensy are mounted the same direction, usb jack up.
The CV output can do any waveform at any supported rate. The LFO option is just a different way of specifying the scale of oscillation - that is why it lives under the OSC function adjacent to FQ, CYC, and N (to name a few).
Remember, WAVE goes in increments of 100 to allow blending between the waveforms.
This sequence will create a Sawtooth LFO that runs from -10V to +10V at a rate of 150mHz:
TO.CV.SET 1 V 10
TO.OSC.LFO 1 150
TO.OSC.WAVE 1 200

Oh, great, thanks for the info, @bpcmusic. Both expanders seem to be working, now

Hi, anyone can help with the Teensy Loader? If I load the TELEXoPlus.v.021B in, it says “too large”. The TELEXo-none-Plus file works. Its says there 92% used. So whats this limitation?
It is show even without connection the teensy 3.6 to my windows PC.
Any idea? Thank you!
Have tried flashing it? I think I’ve seen that error before with some ornament and crime firmware but flashed fine all the same.
Can´t push the program button. It seems that I need not the older (?) Teensy Loader but the Teensyduino. Just trying to install everything needed. But thanks for your fast reply @jmsiener!
