    I am confused the 1k resistors seem to be wired differently in AWI photo's and Nca78 photo's.
    I would like to build this but not certain how it is wired now

    If you do like drawn on my post from July 7, it works.

      Are the blue and green resistors you have drawn on the back of the adc module the 1k resistors?
      Have you soldered them on the other side?

          @Nca78 , my HX711 board looks like yours. I'm a bit confused on how to connect the J1 pins to the load / power. Can you share how did you connected it? Thx!

          Soldering is a bit messy and not helping much to understand, so I did a (gorgeous) drawing. I think I'll frame that in my living room :D

          @nca78 Exactly the same pin of the IC can be connected to the next pin (VCC) to change the refresh rate.

            I had some spare time and all parts so decided to assemble ampere meter.
            Firstly, the sketch has to be changed. The lib Button.h does not exist (it has been renamed). It has to be changed to JC_Button.h. This has to be added to setup {}:

            myBtn.begin();
            

            in order for the button to work.

            My question is this - reading are jumping like a yo-yo despite having a separate power supply (power bank). After calibration, reading maybe +30% or -30% off needless to say that its drifting dynamically. So constant current of 120uA is read +90 or +150 jumping up and down. Is this the way this meter is supposed to work?

              Can you make a schematic of this circuit please?
              I need this project.

                Hello, is there, somewhere, a real complete diagram of this project? This subject is interesting but not clearly documented ... It's a shame! Thank you.

                  Hi, pin A+ and pin B+ are connected together, on the same terminal block?

                        Hello, I will try to work again on this project in the coming days, I have made one years ago but reused (then broke !) the screen so it's not fonctional now. I will use another screen and make a functional one again as I will need it for some project.

                                Hi to all,

                                These two resistors are 1K ? (betwen E+ and A+) and (E- and B+) ?
                                Need I use Diodes to ground ?

                                  There a way you may have a chance to correct me, I have ordered everything I will need to build this project. I need your help to make a Scheme and how to wire part and connect the load, I have to 2 days trying to figuring out but I yet I need to understand it. You are the last user who visited the project. Thank you in advance if you are able to.
