I'm subsitituting an 18M2 in place of an 18X in a thermostat circuit. As such, the circuit no longer needs the reset switch or its associated resistor, and I gain an extra input should I ever need it in the future.
At present however, this pin is unused (C.5 on the 18M2, or leg 4 of the chip). My question is, should I pull it high or low? On the 18X it was high, but if I understand correctly the 18M2 is completely different from the 18X internally, and just conveniently has the same pinouts? Does this mean I can just pull the unused C.5 pin to ground?
Thanks all.
