    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    Curious if anyone else has experienced this issue and has an idea on what to explore: - I have 3 RTDs wired to a MEGA2560 through Max31865 boards - Each reads pretty accurately and with stability other than a momentary voltage drop/spike when I cycle my pump relays on/off (Haven't wired in...

    This is great. Thanks to both of you! You have each helped me greatly and this is a great next step! Stability has greatly improved for me since wiping out my old data file.

    Thanks. Does that keep the scripts? Didn't look like it when i opened the file. Are the scripts only kept in the .mdf file?

    I made a mistake with my OneDrive and inadvertently deleted a my data file and some other things. I copied the files back from a backup I had and now Brucontrol is crashing and closing at least once per day. It didn't use to crash at all. So, a couple of questions: 1. If I decide to...

    I've had a bunch of these issues and usually it was because my router changed the IP address of the device for some reason I haven't been able to figure out (was set for static IP). I've updated the IP in Brucontrol and voila, it works again! Before that, I had issues with a crappy mesh router...

    Is the Arduino Nano ESP32 compatible with Brucontrol? I wasn't sure if the ESP32 firmware would apply to this board or not? When i try to run the interface setup, it doesn't list any firmware options to select. Thanks.

    Solved it from this thread: netsh.exe: Error 87 Because my user name has a space in it, the built-in reservation button did not work. I had to go into the command prompt as an administrator and add double quotes around my user name. C:\>netsh http add urlacl url=http://+:8000/...

    I'm not sure if there is a more elegant way to do it; however, you can write some scripts that run on a loop to achieve what you're asking about I believe. Example: [ACTIVATELOOP] wait "Active Switch" State == on "Device Element" enabled = true start "Device Element Script" goto "ACTIVATELOOP"...

    I just upgraded to a professional license and am having trouble getting the data exchange service running. I am logged in as an administrator. When I click reserve URL an approval box appears. After clicking Yes, nothing happens. Is there anything else I can do? The base localhost is up and...

    If this was referring to mine, I get the same results with both wifi and serial.

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    All of a sudden, I'm having a really strange issue (that I've now replicated on 3 different ESP32's that have been freshly flashed). Regardless if I have anything connected to my ESP32 (replicated with nothing connected to my ESP32), whenever I enable a digital output device, I get a bad...

    BruControl: Brewery control & automation software

    I have an ESP32 with the following elements: - Heating element (SSR) on Pin 5 - Relay for 110v pump (switches the neutral line) on Pin 16 - RTD on pin 32 (with parallel connections on pins 23, 18, 19) - RTD on pin 33 (with parallel connections on pins 23, 18, 19) When I toggle the relay for the...

    Unfortunately no change with 46F and V 1.1 Build 22. Attached screenshot shows output of 255 regardless if target is 10,000 or -10,000. Also attached are configuration files. Thanks.

    Thank you. I will try the newest firmware. Here are the answers to your questions: 1. Yes, it works great and matches various calibration temps 2. The output of pin 5 is going to a solid state relay that is switching a 5500W heating element. The relay and element work fine as it heats (and...

    Well, I tried two things with no improvement: 1. Reflashed existing ESP32 - Same Results (PID not updating) 2. Flashed a brand new ESP32 - Same Results (PID not updating) @BrunDog Hoping you have some ideas. @RiverCityBrewer Thank you so much for the ideas/attempts so far!

    Pin 5 was the original one I tried for this reason and no difference. Does the PID calculation occur within the ESP32 board or within the Brucontrol software? Since it works correctly when restarting the Brucontrol software, it seems like maybe it's just not updating/refreshing properly on...
