    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    I ran through the steps you listed, and getting the same result. As far as I can tell from the Bluetooth manger in the Pi, the module is connected to port /dev/rfcomm0 successfully. I just can't get Fermentrack to see it.

    I am having a feeling the issue with not being able to untick 'Prefer connecting via udev' could be my problem here. I was reading through documentation for Fermenrack and came across this line: "By default, Linux assigns serial ports to devices like BrewPi controllers based on the order they...

    Regarding this potential bug, just to give you more info I've found for testing, it seems to not take any changes I make in the 'Manage Device/ View logs' tab. I was playing around with changing the serial port and such, and when I click Submit, the page reloads like it took. Changes will seem...

    It looks like I have managed to get my HC-05 connected to the PI from the graphical Bluetooth Manager in the OS. Do you think I should follow the steps you list in that link, or have I already essentially done this? Seems like it is connected, although still not sure why Fermentrack cannot...

    Also, is there anything I need to change in the "Connect Interface To Script" section?

    It's weird, every time I untick "prefer connecting via udev" and click Submit, when I leave the manage page and return it re-ticks it. It still keeps my input of the serial port as /dev/rfcomm0.

    Should I first flash the controller using the USB, then unplug and used advance set up with input of the serial port?

    I selected a setting to connect to serial port, and now it says connected. Does this look right? Also, it says /dev/rfcomm0 now. I tried re-adding the controller with that instead of rfcomm1 and it still doesn't work.

    That command doesn't seem to do anything I can see. Just returns to a new line with no text displayed.

    New adventure working on getting a HC-05 set up for bluetooth connectivity to the Pi. I've been following day_trippr's documentation on configuring bluetooth modules, and I have managed to get the HC-05 paired with the Pi. And after this I started Manual (Advanced) set up of a controller in...

    Or are you saying don't use jumper wires, just remove the resistors on the shield?

    Remove the resistors on the BT module breakout board?

    I'll try the sketch later today with the shield attached. I completely forgot to try that when it was suggested before! I'll let you know.

    Fermentrack: Fermentation monitoring & BrewPi-www Replacement for Raspberry Pi

    No worries, thanks for the info! I'll try this when I get home. On another note: revisiting my previous issue with the rotary encoder seemingly not doing anything. I looked back at another thread where someone brought up a similar issue I had, using the same encoder that is preinstalled on a...

    By "manual set up workflow" for the Arduino in Fermentrack, are you referring to the regular guided set up of flashing the controller, or are you talking about the full manual installation process of Fermentrack in the official documentation on the site?

    If I am using Fermentrack, is the script for Bluetooth support written into the UNO when it is flashed, or do I still need to run the script in your instructions in IDE directly to the UNO?

    I am having trouble finding documentation on bluetooth support for Fermentrack. Does anyone have instructions on what needs to be done to add bluetooth connectivity between a pi 3 and Arduino device? I believe the pi 3 has bluetooth built in, right? Essentially I want to be able to run the...

    Well, worst case scenario, the encoder does wake the backlight up on the LCD, so it wasn't a total waste of money!
