    diagramming software -> draw.io now supports line jumps

    Yes, software supports it. It's part of the line jump style and you can adjust how large the gap is.

    diagramming software -> draw.io now supports line jumps

    Yes, I missed that... just playing around now. I can definitely see your argument against jumps if electrical connections can be indicated with dots. What are your thoughts on gaps?

    diagramming software -> draw.io now supports line jumps

    Those pics were zoomed in... here's the page at 100% using a circle to connect lines. That's the smallest circle I could create and lines are set to 1pt.

    diagramming software -> draw.io now supports line jumps

    Actually, this is pretty cool because you can then drag the circle shape around the page and the lines stay connected.

    So, something like this... It doesn't do it automatically but still pretty easy. I had to create a circle shape to connect the lines...

    diagramming software -> draw.io now supports line jumps

    Good news... For a long time now, I've been looking for a (cheaper/free) alternative to Visio for making electrical diagrams. The one thing that all of them seem to be lacking is the "line jump" feature. draw.io just announced today that they support the feature. FYI - Looks...

    I had a problem with my SYL-2802... the temp readings were jumping around. After sending Auber a video they quickly diagnosed the issue as power line noise/interference and sent me a replacement unit with modified software. They added a notch filter to eliminate some of the noise from the 60Hz...

    Where do you get a Control Panel Nameplate?

    I like ponoko.com. Mine is on their largest stock because it covers my entire panel; cost about $40 shipped (with a $20 off first order promotion). A smaller nameplate would be cheaper. After color filling with cheap acrylic paint from the craft store:

    Show us your panel

    About a year ago I was inspired by this thread to upgrade to electric. It's been a long road but I finally finished today and felt it was time to post here. Thanks to everyone for the inspiration and all the great info in this forum! .

    Finished! I still need mark volumes on my sight glasses but, other than that, I think all I have left to do is brew. Replaced all my tubing... You'll notice on my panel that I don't use a PID for the MLT. Instead, I used an Auber SYL-2802 dual temp meter. The...

    I'm getting close... did some tests with just water. The 50 feet of herms coil definitely slows the flow down quite a bit. The mini ball valves I have are not full port and don't help but I really like them. I did some flow tests with and without them and didn't see much of a difference...

    Oh, and by the way... pulling 6-gauge wire through 3/4 inch conduit is not easy.

    Sam's Brew Box

    I've been debating over where/how to mount the box. The wall probably would have been easiest but, when I was picking up the conduit for the outlet, I noticed the unistrut in the same aisle. Since my stand already resembles a big erector set...

    haha, thanks! I wonder how many g-forces those little electrons pull as they round the corners at that speed...

    response from grainfather management

    Yes, this is the norm. The retailer does not want to be in competition with the manufacturer for sales and the manufacturer doesn't want to upset their retailer channel. Think about it. If Grainfather started selling their stuff direct at a price that leaves the retailer no room to make any...

    Selector Switches and Contact Block question

    You don't need more blocks if you can jam multiple wires into the terminal screw on the block. Two wires (one to pump and one to LED) in one side of a block won't be an issue. See Kal's diagram:

    1 NO Block vs. 2 NO Blocks

    The blocks just give you options. You can get extra blocks, mix and match them, and stack them on the back of the switch. Let's say you wanted a red LED to light when a switch is off and a green LED to light when the same switch is on, you'd want that switch to have 1 NC and 1 NO block. The...

    Uh... just want to mention that customer service at Auber Instruments is awesome. Thanks Auber! .
