    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I had my latest batch of 1-wire probe assemblies (1 probe per meter with 5m lead, 9m total length) made with the individual probe addresses enumerated, being able to statically assign 1-wire addresses would be really nice!

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    point taken... and I have not made the recent jump to the latest FW/SW anyway.. I will put a couple ESP32 unishields in the equipment budget to be prepared. Might be a good time to announce an upcoming 'final edition' firmware for our beloved 256k mega. It can join my BCS462 on the shelf... I...

    I think that would be a great addition. I suggest hardware address, offset, and a readable value of temp(uncalibrated is OK)...

    it took many hours, but dug up my old CBPi3 boards and wiring harnesses and used them to get the hardware addresses... and printed them on some wraps to put on the probe leads... BruControl NEEDS this functionality....

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Is there a quick way to view the 1-wire hardware address? I am making a 5-sensor daisy chain on my bench, and really would like them in order... if I could use small jumpers to connect to my interface and reset it and get the hardware address, I could note it or even print it on a label like I...

    bump... trying to display on a graph when a hysteresis element was on. Is it possible and I am doing something wrong? I have tried auto and manual, no graph trace for the hysteresis element output. I have this hooked up to a commercial TDD-4 kegerator, and I want to see when the interface is...

    being a fellow Floridian, you know the thing about the quarter on top of the ice in the freezer? Sometimes it is good to know that you lost power.

    I bought one of those feather things, and it died within a few months and they are expensive... I have yet to fry an ESP32, but I have fried 1 of 2 dozen SonOff Dual R2, I wish I had a way to do more I/O with the new Dual R3 and R3 lite... they are awesome.. Itead wanted $30k to do custom tho....

    When it does, in fact, reconnect to BruControl. legit switching power supply not exactly a compatible form factor and kind of defeats the purpose of a a remote probe in a small waterproof box... I will try a small capacitor on the ESP, but not sure if the pins can have access to the right...

    I have multiple ESP32's in a AC-USB adapter plugged into 2 different Cyberpower 375VA UPS units, one has a Cisco 2960L 24 port switch also plugged in and the other has a Pi Zero W also plugged in via a similar adapter... both experience hanging every few months, but not at the same time...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Can I graph the output of a hysteresis element(0-1 or 0-255) along with the input? I would like to see a square wave showing when the element was on and off. The manual for v1.1 (1-1-2020) shows this on page 65, but I am not sure if "Fermenter Control: Value" is a hysteresis element. I have it...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Can there be a watchdog inside that if it does not hear from BC in 1/6/24 hours that it resets internally and sets a flag or something that can be in the log? I do not know if that is possible, but if being on a ups doesn't help it, I guess I could try a faraday cage, but that would kind of...

    Been away for a while, thanks for testing this board, I have been wanting an off-the shelf unit for my shop's garage door 3-button operator, and it needs 2 NO relays for up and down, and one NC relay for 'stop'

    in a similar fashion, I control the water flow to a reflux condenser on a still. It worked great with a Sestos PID. Here is the writeup from December, 2014 Automating Reflux Condenser Water Flow - Accessories Discussions on StillDragon® Community Forum Now, with BruControl, because the Ki...

    Been out of the loop for a while, has there been any thought on integrating in an off-the-shelf wireless thermometer system of some sort, such as a bbq or smoker thermometer? I got a new pizza oven and want to monitor/alert temps, and maybe someday control them...
