| Description for Image 1: This gallery depicts part of the assembly of our EFIS panel. Some parts at the front, then the 3 panel parts: From left to right: the printed panel, plexi backer, and the mounting plate. | |
| Description for Image 2: Closeup of the printed panel. This actually consists of 3 parts: (front to back) a thin tranparent adhesive, normal white paper printed partly brown, and a inkjet or laser transparency printed black to block light (see other panel galleries for pics) | |
| Description for Image 3: plexi backer (ours is actually not plexiglass, but something similar which is easier to work with) | |
| Description for Image 4: and the back-plate. This is actually a double side copper PCB. Sturdier and it doesn't brake as easy as plexiglass et al. | |
| Description for Image 5: some of the parts. | |
| Description for Image 6: the PCB back-plate/mounting-plate | |
| Description for Image 7: again the back of the PCB, with one rotary not mounted yet | |
| Description for Image 8: front side of PCB | |
| Description for Image 9: an interesting experiment: since both the ND Range and the ND Mode selectors have pushbuttons integrated, I tried to come up with a simple and cheap solution. I drilled a 5mm hole into the white bottom part of the rotary. Now, the axis as a vertical play of about 1mm which can be used in conjunction with a microswitch... | |
| Description for Image 10: ... I got the small green microswitches really cheap (1.50 EUR for a bag of 100 :-) And the size is just right for this. It only needs to be glued onto the rotary. | |
| Description for Image 11: ... just soldering wires the the contacts of the microswitch is not that easy. | |
| Description for Image 12: different angle | |
| Description for Image 13: This should show it nicely | |
| Description for Image 14: and again another angle | |
| Description for Image 15: putting the whole thing together... plexi backer | |
| Description for Image 16: again | |
| Description for Image 17: printed panel laid on top. | |
| Description for Image 18: the whole thing screwed together and adding some knobs | |
| Description for Image 19: I know, the knobs don't match, but better than nothing right now :) | |
| Description for Image 20: backlighting test: 4 yellow 3mm LEDs dangling between the plexi and the mounting plate. | |
| Description for Image 21: even visible in daylight. | |
