Garry,

The "screen" on the MagicStomp is actually a daughter-board comprising the screen and a couple of logic chips: this had the designation 162. The 162 is now obsolete and probably unobtainable. It has been replaced by the 1602, which will require the addition of a resistor to Pin3 (contrast) and will probably require a bit of surgery to the casing aperture.

I've sent you a PM.

Regards, Garry.

Hi DaveC
I fitted a 1602 to my MS a while back the contrast is to bright can't read any setting, what resister do you fit to #3 pin and it just #3 pin it go to and no other pin the resister go to?

I thought these EFTP patches were not transferable from one owner to another?

[alanbakewell]

Charlie, I might have this wrong. However, as far as I know, the EFTP
patches for the Zoom G3X G3 and G5 are not transferable. The Zoom
G3XN is a different machine and not subject to these rules as
EFTP patches have not been written for it.

It may well be that someone has written patches for the G3XN
However, they are not EFTP patches.

Cheers, Alan.

Hi Alan,
I know. The N version is a very different unit. But EFTP was offered, which is unacceptable.

Hi Charlie, is it reasonable to assume that the term "EFTP" is being used
in a generic sense?

Cheers, Alan.

Hi Alan,
I think not in this case. I have correspondences and information that you are not privy to. Also there is a certain person that could be upset if I were seen to not act on this.
Regards,
Charlie

Hi Charlie. That's fair enough.

Cheers, Alan.
