PIM-2 Digital Metal Detector Project

[eclipse]

Has anyone compared PIM2 vs Delta Pulse 3 or Delta Pulse 3S (must have built those 2). Is the author of these designs the same person (http://www.teknolojiekibi.com/)?
I want to build PIM2 or DP3(s) but still wonder which one to choose.

[sabios]

hello again I'm here and I wonder if there is a version of the hex for pim-2 version 6 Mustafa because as you know with the version 5 of the hex this does not work very well.
I did and really without the hex is just junk, and I sell lugatek scheduled MCU 70 dollars, but ask me in http://www.teknolojiekibi.com and sell the Delta press 3s at 120 dollars, it is clear to arm version but comes with everything up with a coil.

and the truth of 70-120 is very little difference.
I did not think it would cost for both hex pim-2.

to ask them if anyone does not have a version of the hex to use no matter how one test.

and as the partner Saba says: Hi i made this detector, but have a problem, when turn on have sound, after ready detector have tik sound but when metal is detected no detection sound only tik sound, anyone help me.

i hope i can follow

Hey have you completed it? Does it performs as expected compared to the regular Delta Pulse?

[bernte_one]

no, but i have cotacted lugatek People here in Forum to buy a unlimited µController for pim2 Mustafa version

so if i get one i will finish this Project i hope

I tested AVR programmer with the demo code and atmega328PU and seems there are troubles. Pins look compatible, probably can work as a substitute?
If you can't get the paid version I can send you programmed atmega328

Has someone built pcb v03 with software v05? How does it work?

[Jose]

I'm waiting for a friend to program the chip to complete my project.

I have also the scheme and other listings of version 5 and program designer says on its website that the differences are minimal, the v5 is going well and that I'm going to build because of that we have the hex

hi Boadil! can you send me the complete files for v5? please send me at [email protected]. i also want to build this.

[jladre]

Can someone give me the partlist of version 5?

Hi Davis9000

Another question like yours but to be more specific...

Has someone built PIM-2 with PCB Schematic Revision04 and software v05? How well does it work?


Is there, perhaps, a PCB Schematic Revision05 available that can be used with software v05?
I personally have not seen a Schematic Revision05 (PCB) on any of the PI metal detector forums (Geotech1, Lugatek, TeknolojiEkibi etc.),
but was mentioned by Japanese a while ago, under the heading: 'Frequent questions for PIM-2ver05'.
If there is one available, could that person please post it here on Geotech1.


I read somewhere that Schematic Revision06 (PCB) can only be used with software v06 hex file.


Notice also that the word 'Revision' (NOT version) applies only to the Schematic, but that 'Version' applies to the Software (Hex File).
Please DON'T confuse us with these two terminologies - I know that there is a slight translation problem when Turkish language is translated to English.

Thanks.

No good detector. Prigrammable but so many part.

[bernte_one]

hello today i have finished pim2 mustafa pcb version with original controller v10 firmware
detector works and it is very sensitiv but i have problems with lcd display seems that data lines connection from this firmware does not fit to mustafa layout ???

led background light flashes a little bit some kind of unstablity or wrong commands send?
using potentiometer for contrast brings no better results so problems seem at data lines
i have checked all wire connection from pcb to lcd i have connected like on the pcb layout

i can set threshold with pushbuttons (but without looking lcd) and the rest seems to work but i cant do any system menue settings without working lcd
need some help from author PLEASE

Dear BernteOne,


I noticed that on the July 10, 2015 you commented 'publically' about a PIM-2 video which appeared on YouTube and you asked Mr M-usta-fa the following question:


"Hello Mustafa, can you say me which Software Version you have planned for the small pcb you have pulblished for PIM-2, i like the board design and would start to Flash my Atmel chip next days. I have Software vers. 6 - would this work?"


I have two questions for you, Mr BernteOne:


1) Did you ever receive a reply from Mr M-usta-Fa concerning the use of Software vers. 6 - when you asked him "... would this work?"
2) I don't understand your new question to Mr M-usta-Fa... what is 'original controller v10 firmware? You mean software (hex file), perhaps? ...Please explain...
I have not heard of v10 firmware (or software)


Do you think that Mr M-usta-Fa (author) will answer your question?...I have not seen him participate in this forum (Geotech1), unless I'm wrong and he is using an Avatar which I don't know about!


I would also like to build the PIM-2 pulse induction metal detector, but as jladre so rightfully says..."No good detector. Prigrammable but so many part."


...very confusing to say the least!...


Thanks.

i never got answer from user mustafa, but some people who work with him at turkish forum

you can buy pre-programmed µcontroller from them, latest firmware is v10

detector is not bad, desgin ist easy and powerfull if you look the parts
also it are not many parts, pcb is small and easy to build

so the last things i have to to is debugging my version so that i works with lcd, the supply part is ok but i suppose the data lines are changed betwenn my board layout and the latest firmware
maybe i will look at the other concept pcb (the bigger one) and copare how the lcd is connected there

Just a thought ...
Not all LCDs have the same pinout. Some are labelled 1 to 16, and others are labelled 16, 15, and then 1 to 14. There doesn't seem to be any consistent standard for these LCDs, and the connector can be in any position on the PCB, can have all 16 pins in one line, or with a 2X8 configuration on one edge.
Looking in my archive, I see in one photo for the PIM-2 that the connector is a 1x16 in the bottom left.
