Well I do know, that an Osci would be very helpfull, but it would just bankrupt me. There must be a cheaper way to get going with MC's.
What do people think actually about thoose PC Oscis???
And how can I now find out if the connection from my PC to the MC is ok and if the MC 'gets' the code at all ?
