Turns out I changed ONE line of code this
morning before taking it out and had not bothered to check it on the
laboratory pulse meter. I mean it was a very simple change {:>).
It didn't work on it any better back at home than it did on the
aircraft. But, it was a relief to know it was a simply code screw
up. Eliminated that line of code and all is back working.
in a prior life I was a systems programmer for
anheuser-busch. You can take out an entire brewery operation with "one
simple change" on a mainframe at the systems level. Usually, however,
the problem is discovered about 3am! When you think about how changing a
binary one to a zero in a program with billions of ones and zeros can render
the whole thing useless it is amazing it ever
works.
