This Forum is Dedicated For all The Object Oriented PIC Lovers .......... The concept behind OOPic is straight forward. Use preprogrammed multitasking Objects from a library of highly optimized Objects to do all the work of interacting with the hardware. Then write small scripts in Basic, C, or Java syntax styles to control the Objects. During operation, the Objects run continuously and simultaneously in the background while the scripts run in the foreground telling the objects what to do.

Re: [oopic] Fried voltage regulator or Cable issue?

It sounds like the voltage regulator (that 3 pin little part near the
edge of the board) is fried. I usually recommend that you replace it
with a 7805 regulator so that you have more power available on the board
for other sensors. The pads are big enough to take this part even
though it is much bigger. The pinout is exactly the same as for the
78L05. Look at the data sheets for both parts so that you will put the
part in correctly.
