every board will work with RPi Zero which is designed for RPi2/3 because it has same pinouts. Although I am not sure if Zero i capable of CBPi, I cant check it as it is impossible to get Zero over here.

@SHvanBommel

I can see that you connect temp port to both GPIOs, that might sometimes cause the problem because some GPIOs when system start ar HIGH and some are LOW and I am not sure how system will read temp, you can check it

CBPi did run on my zero under raspbian, but as indicated above I had issues with DietPi on the zero. I think it's related to some missing or improperly configured software, but I'm not an expert in that area.

terragady · Sep 15, 2016

I read on some other forum that they used some other lite version than DietPi and it works. There is also guy on irish forum who is using Zero for CBPi so I think you can get it to work.

jfenton78 · Sep 15, 2016

Do you recall what forum?

terragady · Sep 15, 2016

there was something on aussie and this Irish one was nationalhomebrewclub.ie i believe. I do not have history here so I can't check

Random question, does anyone know if CraftBrewPi supports PID autotuning? I have a hosehead with Strangebrew Elsinore, and trying to compare against CraftBrewPi. Strangebrew doesn't do autotuning as far as I'm aware.

So, I'm thinking about building a pi-based system using CraftbeerPi and going all electric.
One question I had was running the pi with a little touchscreen TFT display-- is that supported in the base code or is it some custom work that people have done?

jrubins · Sep 18, 2016

Alternatively, if I stick with gas,
is there an ignitor relay output? I'd need to have the relay on for 2-5 seconds whenever the gas is turned on.

Just an update about 1-Wire
read this http://aussiehomebrewer.com/topic/90757-craftbeerpi-brew-controller/?p=1403623

how the hell he is able to run this?

@SHvanBommel did you try to connect sensors to different GPIOs and check if they are recognised? Or maybe Manuel changed it in 2.2 version?

Manuel · Sep 20, 2016

What did I change?

1-Wire protocol, but it seems that guy from aussie forum messed up and he had it connected to one GPIO

false alarm, sorry!

SHvanBommel · Sep 20, 2016

Hey, I am working a board rev to jumper the different pins for use as 1-wire but from what I understand you can change configuration of pins to go hi or low at startup. I still think there's no reason you can't just put all sensors on gpio4 but...

terragady · Sep 20, 2016

no no, you can of course put all sensors to one GPIO, I am just asking in sake of 4.0 board and just my own knowledge

GPIO4 is not really usefull as it is from the "inside" side of the bus.

SHvanBommel · Sep 20, 2016

Ah, yes I did try connecting them to different gpio and they were not recognized.

terragady · Sep 20, 2016

did you change GPIO at the install.sh script and install CBPi from scratch?

or

"Add the following to /boot/config.txt and reboot.

dtoverlay=w1-gpio,gpiopin=x

where x is the (Broadcom) GPIO number you want to use for the 1-wire bus."

I was trying the latter and it works, not sure about 1st method but seems the same

SHvanBommel · Sep 20, 2016

Ah, no. Bit I can't see why that wouldn't work.

SHvanBommel · Sep 26, 2016

All things considered, i've finished the design for my version of the hat. feedback is appreciated before i send it to print.

Pritty cool! Is GIPO 14 for "stop push button" support? This could be very helpful!

Regards,
Manuel

Ok ,the boards just arrived today.I'll send you a PM with my paypal information and I'll need your snail mail address. $4.00 a board including shipping in the USA.

SHvanBommel · Sep 27, 2016

@manuel - no, smart idea, That's why I jump eres the 3v line so you could use the regular gpio or use for 1-wire. GPIO 14 is for running a shutdown script from a momentary push.

I paypal'ed you the funds, but i can't pm you my address. (Says you've opted not to receive pm's)

You'll need to send me a way to send my address to you. Should have included it in the paypal, I guess.

Looks great!

I don't know much about pcb but this is the third time I ordered from DCPCB and every pcb is of high quality.The website can be a little hard to navigate and there is zero customer service but the product is excellent.

@SHvanBommel,

I like the more efficient layout. If you are going to make this layout or any bare boards available to others, you may want to explicitly label the I2C header itself, as well as the part number of the power buck, in the same font as "shutdown". Similarly, how about explicitly naming the SDA and SCL pins at the I2C header in lieu of simply 0 and 1? Finally, you should probably distinguish pin 1 on the GPIO socket for the benefit of any total NOOBS.

SHvanBommel · Sep 28, 2016

I'll fix all of the suggestions above and will have another 4 or 5 boards available, besides the 3 for bigdadyale if anyone is interssted

RTL · Sep 28, 2016

I'll take one.

SHvanBommel · Sep 28, 2016

Kiwirob - 2
Rtl - 1

Alt · Sep 28, 2016

I'll take one, thanks.
