Yes, those are the instructions I was following. I'm sure I've just made a silly mistake. I tried iSpindel = iSpindel1, as well as iSpindel = iSpindel-iSpindel1. Got a brew running at the moment, so will have another go again soon. Thanks LBussy!

Hey LBussy, I've been trying to configure my iSpindel to appear in BPR using the instructions on Github (https://github.com/brewpi-remix/brewpi-www-rmx/releases). I did a fresh install (I believe it was 0.5.3.0), but the script only seems to allow for Tilt. After installation, I got the "unable...

Ha yeah, it was more to check I was on the right track. First thing that came up on Google. I have to get some washers to finalise the case for the hardware, so I can pick one up locally.

Ahhhhhhhhh I see! That makes MUCH more sense. I thought it seemed like a really convoluted way to wake the backlight! Very clever, I didn't realise there was that functionality (I haven't read the entire thread. Thanks again, day trippr. Re: RE selection; is there a specific requirement...

Ok, thanks for that guys. Forgive me, but I'm a bit confused - why is a rotary encoder employed for the backlight? Is it just a method to generate a signal the Arduino can recognise that it uses to then switch the backlight?

Haha, absolutely. I've looked over various parts of the code, but I lack a lot of fundamental understanding on how the multiple files go together. Ah well, my beer stays the right temperature! I ended up getting and installing a 20x4 LCD (I2C backpack, 2004a) tonight - works nicely. It looks...

Fair enough. Back to getting the RPi0W to running it then! Or a 20x4 LCD when I eventually give up :smh:

After some further research, it seems there is an Arduino I2C (and SPI) librry for the above OLED's chipset (SSD1306) for their varying dimensions (128x32/64), a library for drawing images, and sample sketches available in the IDE. I found this info here, which goes into detail on how to write...

Ha, trust me to pull the trigger before looking into enough. That's fine, it'll just be a project for a bit later down the teack.

Yes I was originally eyeing off one of those displays on eBay, because it seemed to be an easy fit (and what others had done using GPIO 10, 11 & 13 via shift registers etc) - but I quite like the look of the little one. If I can get it running I'll be stoked, but otherwise will looking into...

Ahh great, thanks LBussy. Just waiting for the screen to arrive, then I'll flash the new firmware and see how it goes. It's 128x32, so I'm wondering if it will display the text infinitely small...

Hi LBussy, Great work as always. My BPR setup has been up and running beautifully for a few months now, and I've just about finished the final version of it (a neat one!). I have an Adafruit I2C OLED, designed to work with the RPi0W. I'm hoping to connect it to the Arduino Uno R3 via I2C...

Thanks for your help everyone. Here's my setup running with a 10L batch.

Yeah sorry LBussy, I haven't got around to getting the exact output for you just yet - been focused on determing which of my DS18b20s are dead/alive, rearranging the setup and getting it working. I'm proud to report it now operates perfectly, running three probes (beer, fridge & room) and two...

With the BPR GUI, when I attempt to upload the .hex file it just hangs. No output occurs in the bottom window. With avrdude over command line, it gives a stk500 and communication error. Sometimes it says it times out. I will get you a proper output a bit later. The only way I was able to get the...

Well, after many late nights tearing my hair out, you guys have helped me get it running again. I rebuilt my breadboard with a fresh piece, systematically weeded out the dead B20s (I have 6x, and 2x were dead/reading 85), reinstalled BrewPi Remix, and reflashed the Arduino. Funnily enough I...

Further to this, I've just had a look through my Arduino libraries on the compiler (v1.8.10, Win10), and found I did not have OneWire or DallasTemperature installed - I've now installed them, and compiled & uploaded LTBrewer's code example to my Arduino. Whilst running the serial monitor, I get...

I made the above connections to my RPi3B (no Arduino involved), pasted this code into a new file via Nano and saved it as a python script, executed it, and got the error: >>> %Run test_sensors.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/pi/test_sensors.py", line 43 print "Read...

Awesome guys, thanks fornthe suggestions! I'll try these out later today. I don't mean to disrespect the great work done to make this software what it is, I just am at a loss. Oh well, time to work it out. Re: PAR; my sensors do not have any markings on them to indicate whether they are PAR or...

Hi LBussy, really glad to hear from you! I've actually read this entire thread, and you're featured prominently. After the initial reverse polarity issue, I replaced both temp probes and the Ardunio at the same time. So there is essentially no implicated hardware. It was from here onwards I...
