    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    It was the arduino drivers incorrectly installed. Now it shows the MEGA on COM port 4 and the connection is stable (no more disconnects.) thanks. However, I am still unable to control the LED or getting a reading from the 1 wire even with the resistor I added. I've tried rebooting the arduino...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I'll be sure to add one. As for the serial disconnects and being unable to control the onboard LED, here is my communications log. Edit: I did change the firmware to 45O (serial version), as @BrunDog suggested.

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    10 DS18B20 sensors, but only testing 1 for right now. Wired over XLR. I am currently not using a resistor. I have not reset the 1 wire bus using control codes, but now see how to do that in manual. The only resetting I was doing with the physical reset button on the MEGA, not sure if that's what...

    I have this 16 relay board which I plan to use for the valves.

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Attached are screenshots of how my brucontrol is configured along with my 1 wire config (using the virtual ports allowed me to add the sensor, thanks @oakbarn ). However I am unable to get any data readings and am not able to get any from the test onboard led on MEGA (I have it configured to pin...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Thanks for this information. So on the hardware side I should run all the data pins in parallel back to a singular arduino pin, potentially #5? How will I be able to separate out the data for 10 different temperature points? and the 5V power needs to have a 4.7k pull down resistor? Any advice...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    New to brucontrol and trying to add some 1-wire DS18B20 temp sensors and 9-24V reverse polarity ball valves. So far I have the temp sensors wired, red: 5v, black: gnd, yellow: digital pin 2 on a arduino mega 2560. However, I do not see 1-wire as an option when adding a new device like is shown...
