Hello guys

I was wondering if anyone has any experience or knowledge about how to set up a seven segment display in a [Giga meter](https://www.gbfans.com/wiki/equipment/giga-meter). I have done some research but have no knowledge base when it comes to electronics myself.

Thank you very much and if this already exists sorry.

It really depends on the 7-segment display. There are several out there that vary in what pins are what on the bottom. You can opt to have a static number wired up, or you can use something like Arduino to give a random display or something that scales up and down with the value of a potentiometer.
