DGT sensitivity ---HELP!!!

chesspcmac · Post by **chesspcmac** » Sat Dec 24, 2016 1:42 pm

I bought a used USB DGT board. Long story short...... The computer PC recognizes all the pieces without any problem. BUT my DGTpi doesn't recognize the pawn in f6.
F6 recognizes all the pieces but no the pawns, sensitivity issues??? I have a windows 98 running, I downloaded BTWIN from DGT - to adjust sensitivity in individual squares but it doesn't have an ".exe" file, so it can not be run.

Any Ideas???

If it is not one thing is the other REGARDS

Hi Mike,

Are these repair manuals of any use, especially the 2nd link -
Repair of an e-board?

Are you using a desktop or laptop? Sometimes deskptop power supply causes interference.

Scally, Santito, thanks for the answers guys. I have no problem with the desktop whatsoever. The problem is withe PC there is no problems but when I use the USB board with the DGTpi it takes like 15-20 seconds to recognize the pawn on f6, if I place the knight or any other piece on F6 DGTPI recognizes the piece immediately.
The problem I have with my PC windows XP PRO (i mentioned 98 in my previous post but it was an error) is that I downloaded BTWIN from DGT - to adjust sensitivity in individual squares but it doesn't have an ".exe" file, so it can not be run. Maybe I have to use a more modern windows version.

Nothing works like a dedicated Chess computer REGARDS

Hello,
If I understand, you can to try do the procedure physically, opening the compartment where is the connected to board with the motherboard. Has the sensitivity adjustment of the pieces.
