Uni-T UT139c LCD biasing and other mods
xeezawaki:
I tried to do this mod with a UT139C and it worked with almost no setup :)
I adjusted the LCD biasing and prevent the backlight to auto turn-off.
I soldered header pins on the board, connected pins to Arduino as shown by @KBird, read the sketch of @frozenfrogz , try to understand what was doing and what was going to happen, uploaded et voilà. Done.
I have a question as I'm quite new on this: the methods that do the bit write are into the loop(). I'm not sure if I did the correct thing, but I waited for two loops (one to see the dump before, and the next to see the dump after and check if bytes were written), and after all bitwrite functions executed i pulled out the 3v3. Did I act correctly or are there less agressive ways to break or stop the loop once everything is done?
Thanks to all people that investigated and made this possible, btw. :)

Hello!
I have the ut139c and I love it. I do electronics and basic electricals. I ordered the ch341a mini programmer and soic8 clip. I will be using the accompanying app. I have ZERO knowledge of hex bit I want to extend the power off time and set the backlight to manual.
I would really appreciate it if someone here could please tell me what addresses to look for and values to change to, to achieve this.
Thanks in advance all... 🙋🏾♂️

See Reply No#25 , there are links to more info I used there ie to FlyWheelz Post.
WARNING :
MAKE VERY SURE to save the Existing Hex dump in case you need to recalibrate the Meter in the future...this info is UNIQUE to YOUR METER....

Hello again.
My test clip just arrived and the attached is what i got from the meter.
I just need manual backlight control.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
And yes, I made a backup already!
Thanks in advance :)

Hi have a new revision of board for this meter, I like it, now multimeter chip and eeprom are located in rear circuit board, only removed rear cap for access.
