    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    My plan for the fan is to have a momentary switch on top of the box that the DS18B20 probes attach to so that when the lid is shut it completes the circuit and runs the fan. Cheap and simple.

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    Thanks for the quick replies. I cleared the EEPROM and the ghost DS18B20 is gone and everything from a breadboard on my desk is working properly. I'm going to try testing out the ability to trigger my SSRs as they only require 3v DC to trigger and start splicing them into the freezer compressor...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    I put the data line from the 3xDS18B20 probes into one dupont wire with a 4.7 ohm jumper of 5v+ then into the Arduino A0 as A4 is used by the I2C LCD. At this point my LCD is blank though the led light on the back is lit and no amount of turning or depressing the rotary encoder does anything...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    So I got the recommended rotary encoder and LCD (I2C), thank you guys for the heads up, and finally got a chance to play with it this past weekend. I can't seem to get everything to work and I've been reading the forum and some of the other builds and I just don't see what I've done wrong. I...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    Not sure if it matters but I'm using AC-DC relays to control the chest freezer compressor and reptile heat lamp (like elko did years ago). My current design is to have the brewpi, arduino uno, LCD, and rotary encoder in a project box connected to the compressor compartment with cat5 where the RS...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    Thanks for the quick replies. I'm going with the I2C and rotary encoder you recommended. On the OshPark link you sent there is an arduino uno shield BOM, is that the preferred method? I'm completley new to electronic maker stuff but want to do it correctly and learn the right way through this...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    I have a hardware question concerning LCD and rotary encoder. I'm reading through the build threads old and new but I'm confused on what I should buy. I have an arduino uno Rev3 and a raspberry pi 2 model B v1.1 already. If LCD or rotary encoder type functionality are better handled another way...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    So despite not being recognized on my last flash it is able to run the script and install my two probes from the bread board. I've only installed on single chamber this whole time as I'm at least starting out with a single chest freezer. The Arduino Uno is genuine in the sense that it's a real...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    So I used the "sudo apt-get install libopenblas-dev" on my current install and fixed my issue and the web portal ran the script. However the error returned while trying to add devices through the web portal. No amount of reboots or tweaking could fix it so I uninstalled BrewPi then reinstalled...

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    Any thoughts on what I should do concerning the "script not running" and numpy issues I'm experiencing?

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    No and I selected N every time I've installed BrewPi using the auto instillation tool.

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    Sorry for the long paste but I wasn't sure what all would be pertinent from the daemon log. Looks as though the numpy thing is still an issue but I don't really know what to do beyond the install commands I already used from the piwheels website. Thanks again for all the support.

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    So I went ahead and rebooted earlier today and gave it a few hours and still the "script not running" issue. I tried using chrome, Microsoft Edge, and firefox with the same results. I opened the /home/brewpi/logs/ folder and all three files there were empty (ReadMe.md, stderr.txt, stdout.txt).

    BrewPi Remix – What’s Old is New Again

    So I went through the commands and it appears to me that everything is properly installed. I went ahead and executed an option 1 uninstall of BrewPi then used the automated install tool. I can access the BrewPi.local web portal but I get "cannot connect to script" and "script not running" even...

    Speedy recovery LBussy. Thanks again for helping me work out all the kinks.
