This allows you to turn the light on and off from the power supply. There is a plug that you use on the back of the power supply if not using the DV universal timer. I was wondering if anybody tried modifying a cheap foot switch for this purpose? The circuit seems rather simple, though the connector seems custom (or at least not familiar to me). The original foot switch is quite pricey though (for my use anyhow), and I was thinking if a DIY solution is possible for this.

This is by no means necessary, but it would be nice to use the systems full potential. So my question is: anybody have a data sheet of the electronic timer available?Ģ) Assuming I get the timer going at some point, I'd be interested to see if I can add a foot switch as well. I am by no means an electrical engineer, but want to try and narrow down the problem a bit. This is typically the time for good old Murphy to drop by, and indeed after replacing the fuse I'm still out of luck. Now either the fuse was just old and broken, or there is a good reason the fuse was broken to begin with. Of course I opened up the timer, and was happy to find a broken fuse. Of course I can add an additional external timer, but I'd rather try to fix things. It needs to be attached for the trans stab to do its job though. I have two questions concerning the electronic timer that is attached to the trans stab of the enlarger.ġ) Unfortunately my timer does not function. Also noticed I'm not the only one with a "new" De Vere 504. Since I just start printing in the darkroom, the beast is probably a bit of overkill - no less fun though. The worktop and sink are ready, and I recently got a door in my little darkroom booth, so I am about ready to make things light-tight.Ī few weeks ago I had the opportunity to acquire a De Vere 504 enlarger (thanks for the lead koraks). I have been following along with many topics though. Since I'm in the (slooow) process of building a small darkroom, I haven't been actively contributing here.
