Unless you have another way to run through the different settings you'll need the membrane.

I'm not suggesting that I'm trying to work around the parts, I'm just trying to get the answers on the differences between the two, the single and two button kit. And if I buy the single button kit that uses a different switch, why does it come with a membrane pad?

i think they used a generic picture for all the kits. the difference between them is how you turn them on and off and access the settings. the one button kits use a slide switch to power on and off and access the menus to change settings. the two button kits use a membrane pad which has two buttons in it.

p8ntbal4me just posted up some videos in the logic ripper thread in the dealers section on programing the one button version

personally i think the membrane pads are a little easier to learn to program. the programing may be a little different due to the difference in the input methods for power on/off and accessing the menus.

the order of the menus between the two open bolt versions don't seem to be different

The 1 button UTBs are pictured with a membrane pad because they were lazy and didnt have a slide switch to put in the picture.

As I have received new kits from them,.. they have never come with a slide switch. It was assumed that the people ordering the 1-button kit would have a single momentary button (preferred method) or a slide switch to operate the board.

The 1 button code is NOT the same as the 2 button code.

I have been around the ringer with Damon concerning the code on the UTBs.
We have agreed to some extent that the best solution to the 1 button code is to change it from a momentary to a "instant on" option in the code.

As you can see,... there IS an option for it in the code already. However,.. those that have 1 button UTBs,.. they will find that you can not get to that option in the setup menus.

I found this error about a week ago,.... when I kept getting a boot error on the LEDs when programing some code on them.

Those of you that have 1-button UTBs: You can send the board back to Scenarion Dreams for a free re-flashing **THIS APPLIES TO 1-BUTTON UTBS ONLY**

What he did for now,.. is removed the "instant on" option entirely. (notice the SD UTB 1-button manual is now edited to reflect this on the web page)

I want Scenario Dreams to revamp the code to be a switchable power button option or make an entirely new code for another version of the board (Direct Power from the Battery)

If it wasnt for me,.... the error would not have been found. Daemon is willing to work on the issue so we will wait and see.

Im getting another solution in order as well in case it doesnt pan out.

The UTBs in either case Im involved in will be worth the investment.

The wiring of the 2 different boards are the same. Only change would be to NOT use the eye wire on the harness that toggles the eyes on and off.

It means that you can use JUST 1 button to make the board work due to the code on the board.

If you bought the 2 button version,... you HAVE to have 2 buttons to program the board.

1 button install on a 2-button UTB would only power it on and off with limited menu function. You would need a another button or switch wired inside the board or frame (like the tourney lock on E-Blades or something) to get into advanced programming.

Ok, just got another email from him:

My question>
"Why is the membrane pad is supplied with the one button kits? If you use the switch that is already on the marker, why do you also need the membrane pad?"

Damon>
"Because players wanted to be able to have the option of using the membrane
pad. You can use the membrane pad with the one button programming. It
doesn't have to be a slide switch."
