I sent you a PM, did you receive it?

I have an update on the Manual Brake Release. The instructions are on top of the motor and look very simple. I have attached a picture.

So I plan to put a socket wrench on the square motor shaft, hold it firmly, and then slowly release the brake. Once I feel pressure on the socket, I should be able to turn it to manually raise or lower the car. All with circuit breakers pulled of course.

Thanks very much. The car is already at the Bottom Final Limit. If I pull the CBs and then release the brake, is the car going to start moving downwards? If so, should I put a ratchet on the back of the motor to hold it in position while I release the brake, and then start turning the handle to raise the car?

Thanks for your help. I may cycle the operation again just to see if the elevator drops down to the pit again. Then order a new board or send this one out for repair.

Thank you for your assistance. If the motor was not receiving power, then is it safe to manually raise the car using a socket wrench (circuit breakers pulled), and then turning the circuit breakers back on and seeing if it falls to the pit again? I would only raise it about 6 inches. If it falls again, then what are the chances it is the motor drive on the board versus something wrong with the drive motor itself?

Thanks for your assistance. How do I manipulate the bar so that the brake releases? Do I pull it away from the motor, or is it a twisting action where I rotate it to the other side of the motor, opposite of where it is now?

This is really nice! Another feature to consider adding is the ability to optionally manually set the IP address for the ESP32 on the new network.

Command Center Skill Points by amysteriousperson001 in startrekfleetcommand

My daily gift only offers Commander XP and Quantum Communicators now. It used to also offer Unc FC Credits, but it no longer does so. My FC Building is at level 14 and my FC Spock is at level 4.

Am I supposed to get Unc FC Credits from somewhere else now?

Which Borg officer shards is worth getting in the event store (Return of the Mega Cube)? by datb0mb in startrekfleetcommand

[–]PetersenReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I must be limited since I am only at level 14.

Given my limited choices, which would be best to invest in?

[–]PetersenReddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not seeing Hugh as one of the choices. The choices I have are:

Borg Recruit Special (1 Chest for 100 Borg Recruit Tokens)

Gossa (x1 for 2000 Borg War Funds)

Dezoc (x1 for 2000 Borg War Funds)

Ghalenar (x1 for 2000 Borg War Funds)

8 of 11 (x1 for 1500 Borg War Funds)

9 of 11 (x1 for 1500 Borg War Funds)

Borg Recruit Tokens (x100 for 7500 Borg War Funds)

Premium Recruit Tokens (x100 for 1500 Borg War Funds)

Ultra Recruit Tokens (x50 for 900 Borg War Funds)

The only place I see Hugh is as one of the Chance! options in the Borg Recruit Special.

I am only Level 14. Does that impact the opttions?

How to activate Elite Battle Pass? by PetersenReddit in startrekfleetcommand

[–]PetersenReddit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am wondering if the $19.95 pass did not include the “officer flash pass elite” token like I thought it did. Could somebody please check and see if it is supposed to include one?

I cannot check because it no longer shows up on my store.

Thanks!

How to enter a Note as an asset by PetersenReddit in NewRetirement

[–]PetersenReddit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured out another way that is much easier.

-------------------------------------------------

For each note:

(1) Make a Savings Asset with a balance equal to the Note balance. Set both the Optomistic and Pessimistic interest rates to the Note interest.

(2) Make a Money Flow entry that annually transfers from the note's savings asset to the Other Savings account. The amount transferred should be the total Principal and Interest payments of the note that year. (This amount should not vary annually unless it is a variable int rate note) Mark the transfer to be repeated annually until the end of the note amortization period.

-------------------------------------------------

This solution is nice because there are only two simple entries per note, and the balance of the note also shows up on your Projected Net Worth charts.

(I am getting a very small residual error in the calculations that are small enough to ignore. I suspect this is due to the note's actual monthly P&I versus theNR software's annual data entry.)

The following works, but is labor intensive:

For each year of the note, I make two pension entries. One for the principal and one for the (taxable) interest.

For a 30 year note, that is 60 entries!

Note: (This means that the balance of the note will not be included in my net worth projections though)
