[oopic] Re: Micromega announces OOPic support for uM-FPU V3.1 floating point chip

I got my micromega v3.1 FPU in the mail today and I was very pleased
with how easy it was to set up and use. The instructions on their
site were very clear and included a wiring diagram that even I could
follow. Their examples worked well, other than I had to convert the
oLCDSE to oLCDSET since that's what I have.

I really appreciated the thorough documentation. I'm using my FPU to
calculate water depth from a Omega Engineering pressure sensor.
Without the floating point math it wouldn't be nearly accurate
enough.

Thanks guys..

Mike
