Default S-Meter repair?

Is it possible the meter movement might fit the older case?


Actually, the "new" meter fits the hole and looks about the same type.
The differences are that the RME has a yellow, logo'd, back-lit scale,
whereas the new meter has a white face. Both have "S" scales. Maybe I
should simply count blessings and press on?

Some meters, particularly the older ones, can be disassembled. In this
case you may be able to swap parts until you have a working one with the
right appearance, and a pile of useless parts that look like they could
be from a meter.

Do you need to implement control loops in software?
"Applied Control Theory for Embedded Systems" gives you just what it says.
