(Does anyone in this forum has an idea to fix this problem)
----------------------------------------------------------
Quoting an email to Warren Furlow:
Dear Warren,
the VR7 ist the best emulation of the 41 yet, I tried several different too.
But there seems to be a problem with the Time-Module (all of them, I tried several combinations).
I need to build a countdown-timer for last second bids in EBAY, e.g.
-5
SETSW
RUNSW
SW
Result on my Real 41CX:
-04:59:59.9 and counting UP
Result on Virtual 41CX:
00:00:00.00 and counting UP
So the timer on the VR7 doesn't seem to carry the negative sign, instead immediatly zeroes the SW and counts up.
You might like to try Yourself.
Is there a fix or a workaround for this?
I'd be looking forward to hear from you soon,
Yours, Simon Strach, Koeln, Germany
P.S: Here is the listing I had to do on the VR7 to circumvent this problem, which of course is not as elegant:
