Appears to me as though you have this wired correctly based on the drawings.
You can measure the A,H,P outputs on pins 4,3 and 11 respectively. They should all be low (0v) until you press the corresponding button.
Do you happen to have a picture of the circuit you have put together? Sometimes it can be a crossed wire or a pin that was counted incorrectly.
Yes, that was a problem when I was modifying the drawing, I forgot to extend that line around. But they all do connect to GRD.On your schematic:
There is a short circuit from ULN2003 pin 8 (GND) to +5.
Remove it.
Pin 7 of the CD4093 looks disconnected. It should be connected to ground.

as for the ULN2003 pin 8. A short? how so? Are you saying I should remove the connection to GRD all together?
Sorry, I see what you meant. its only connected to GRD, here is a what is really wired.On your schematic:
There is a short circuit from ULN2003 pin 8 (GND) to +5.
Remove it.
Pin 7 of the CD4093 looks disconnected. It should be connected to ground.
The 7-segment displays that are used are not the same as depicted on the schematic if I recall correctly. The ones being used are a single die per segment.Suggestion....
I know this is probably your first project, but a bit of advice...
Always...always...always keep your schematic accurate. Always make your physical circuit match your schematic. If you do make changes to the physical circuit...always take the time to reflect the changes in your schematic. It will help you and others troubleshoot....
So...
One thing I noticed is the LED display part number. If I'm reading the datasheet right, the forward voltage drop of each segment is at least 7- 8 volts, and for 30ma its about 8.05 volts. That means your not going to be able to use a 5 volt power source. A 12 volt power source woud be better.

I'm still looking over the rest of the schematic...
Yes, thank you. we trouble shot that one, a while back in working over the design. not realizing that the LEDS in question were meant for a larger display.Suggestion....

What is the point of the ULN IC's ??
4026 and 4033 are designed to drive 7-segment displays.
High Bright displays work perfectly with 4026 and 4033.
Hi
Here is a circuit with changes to consider.
I replaced the 4093's with 4049's and added debouncing for the reset and lamp test switches. Also increased the debounce rc values to provide about 20ms debounce time and added power on reset. This circuit worked in simulation.
Also: do you have a higher res version of that same schematic? I can't read any of the part #'sHi

Hi
Try this one..
BTW...The inverters should have been 40106 Schmitt inverters instead of 4049's. You can use 4093's, configure as inverters, if you already have those.
Can this be modified to run off of 12V? I noticed it said 15V. Im trying to run this off of a PC power pack that will also run the several other electronics on the table.
