VR circuit changes.

I must have missed this before but in the FAQ it talks about changing a 59k resistor and .001 F cap to a 39k and .01 F cap. Is this still necessary on Error's board and a pre-built V3. I can't tell what schematic its showing as the pics aren't back up yet.

I have another question. On the NE1- goes to pin 7 which from my RS harness goes to ground. From other pinnouts though it goes to the NE1- on the harness. Are these supposed to be connect to ground or the harness, harness I'm assuming. I guess how do I separate that on my prebuilt V3. Should I move it to a new pin?

Reading some more on the MS site it looks like you do want to connect to ground by pin 7. Is this right? Also for the 2nd VR circuit should I use pin 8 for the other NE-?

With the v3 board, you aren't going to use the VR conditioner on the error* board that required the changes... you'll only need ot use the lm1815 with the .01 cap and 82k resistor.

Ne+ should go to pin 24, NE- should go to any ground pin, G+ should go to the input for your lm1815 circuit, and G- should go to a ground nearby that on the error* board.

Would it be ok to run ne- and g- both to pin 7 or will this cause issues?

no, that should not be done... you should run the G ground to the lm1815 circuit.
