NEW StrangeBrew Elsinore Thread

[user 101620]

OK here is what I got-

$("#triggerTable" + "28-0000065c31fa").length
1
$("#triggerTable" + "28-0000065c31fa")
[<table id=&#8203;"triggerTable28-0000065c31fa" class=&#8203;"table table-bordered col-md-8" style=&#8203;"display:&#8203; block;&#8203;">&#8203;…&#8203;</table>&#8203;]

any suggestions, does this help.

Can you not see it? it should be visible. If it's not I have no idea why.

Well that makes 2 of us. I am moving from my desktop to a new chromebook and I will try again. One last question - when I click Lock to exit the edit screen I lose the shutdown Elisinore and Shutdown System buttons. Is this another sign that my system is haunted.

Anyway- I understand that this is specific to something I have done and not a criticism of your software. I also appreciate how you have gone out of your way to help. I am sure I will share a laugh when I figure out just what I have done. I maybe cursed from using Windows too long. My first installed versions was Windows 286. I may suffer from a case of no setup.exe and years of making snide jokes at the expense of software people. That may be the answer.

Time to go pitch the yeast in my Lambic. Cheers

The shutdown buttons should only be visible in edit mode, this is to prevent mistakenly pressing the buttons when you're using Elsinore.

Keep going Doug! I'll preparing my E-Biab control panel, with auto and manual mode, i'll post some schematics when i test it.

Control has been regained over /r/StrangeBrew and some changes have been made to it - post tagging, and a wiki has been enabled. Let me know if you'd like to contribute the wiki!

DS18S20 support added, I didn't realize they were a different family (10) compared to the DS18B20 (28). But everything else should be the same. I don't have any to test with.

I'm Back....
Was running my SBE last night (still have the GUI issue) and for whatever reason I checked the Update button. When I re started my system it wouldn't start. I get this message about one of my sensors which had been working fine, is suddenly not seen as a temp sensor.

I deleted my chamber probe so only 3 are listed, but they are listed.

Any reason besides my machine being haunted. I just ordered a new BBB and will retry, I like to have a spare anyway.

This is probably because of a change I made to support the DS18S20s, I'll double check when I get home.

This question is for anyone that has installed a touchscreen. I am in the process of building my controller and trying to decide if I should install a touchscreen. I found this one http://www.chalk-elec.com/?page_id=...ce-LCD-with-capacitive-touchscreen/p/36248806.

Do any of you regret installing the touchscreen?

Thanks

 

[BlkWater_brewer]

I think I am close to getting all my issues at least identified. If someone could either post or PM me the contents of their elsinore.cfg to aide in my trouble shooting I will gladly email you a beer.

Doug, one of my issues was permissions. One of the files I had copied off to my desktop and when I moved it back SBE no longer had access to it. Couldn't even (sudo su) to access it. I knew it was something stupid I did. Late nights, beer and linux don't always work.

Why did you copy it? Not sure what you need from the config file, it's XML and you shouldn't be modifying it directly.

I wanted to see if editing the cfg file directly would have any effect on my GUI display issue. I was told by someone other than yourself back in the beginning that editing the cfg would work??

I don't see how. I haven't gotten around to writing an XSD yet so any changes you make may be invalid and cause issues.

Please use the UI to setup Elsinore from scratch, and if you're moving files around and causing permission issues, use chown -R <user>:<group> SB_Elsinore_Server
to reset the file permissions.

OK, but I had the same issue when I was using the GUI. I do use chown now once I saw what happened.

I finally have a little time to work on this now. I have the bbb up and running with ubuntu and the app is up. I'm now trying to figure out how to wire this 1 wire A/D converter. The disc that came with it is broke and unreadable not to mention nothing on the Chinese site... I'm hoping someone here is using it. its a model is 1wad-5v from pcsensor.com. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Also, and most importantly great work Doug since I've last looked you been busy.

*** Updated*** Not sure why I didn't think about it before but I took it apart and traced them back to the ic. I suggest you do the same thing in case they are different for you. For this one it goes:

black = ground
yellow = data
red = Vcc

Seriously, I have no idea what you're doing, but I suggest that you look into what is going wrong before posting in here, it's distracting.

Will someone, anyone please document their Elsinore build? I want to do one myself but with new baby and moving between houses i dont have as much time to research the parts needed etc. Yes i know there are a lot of different parts you could use, but even just seeing peoples parts lists and circuits would be great. I know ive asked before but ill ask again anyways

There doesn't appear to be anything there currently, but look forward to it. I'm not overly familiar with Linux, but I'm good at typing in the commands others give!

My goal is to set up a system using the new Raspberry Pi. I downloaded Raspbian (NOOBS), extracted it to my MicroSD card, plugged it into the Pi, and installed it. After installing it I installed RealVNC so I could play around with the Pi without being in front of it.

Once NOOBS was installed I tried to go to the setup link for the Raspberry Pi in the first post to this thread, but it's an invalid link. I'm guessing it intends to go to http://dougedey.github.io/2014/03/22/Raspberry-Pi-Basic-Setup/.

I made these changes: sudo modprobe w1-gpio sudo modprobe w1-therm
If you’re on a newer kernel you may need to edit your /boot/config.txt
sudo nano /boot/config.txt
Add this line
dtoverlay=w1-gpio,gpiopin=4

After installing StrangeBrew, I connected my temperature probe, and started it up. It all worked, or so I thought. I have an issue now that I can't get more than 1 timer or switch to survive shutdown. I'll keep reading the posts here and see what I missed. From github I see a few more instructions that I don't see in the initial post, (like installing Java). No idea if that step was required.

 

[KiwiRob]

I got to the photos. Try clicking on the reddit posts title it should link to an album.

Ok I have the ds2450 up and running. Now when I run ./launch.sh it see the non-temp (mpx5010) and ask if it wants me to setup owfs. Beleow is what I get. I can go to ip:2121 and see the ds2450 and my two dallas temp sensors.

I'm sure I've done something stupid but can find it.

Ok. I'm an idiot.... I thought when it said defaults to that if I hit enter that is what it would use. I have it working now. Thanks Doug.

Forgive my ignorance... I recently moved my brewery to the garage and disconnected everything, installed a fresh copy of Elsinore and now I'm having issues with what appears to be OWSF here is what appears. I'm thinking when I went in and deleted the old Elsinore I must have screwed something up. I've checked and rechecked the physical connection of the temp probes; although initially I noticed the connection had come loose. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for you time

is your owserver listening on 8080? Unless you changed that it should be 4304.

Do a check for updates, you're on a version with a bug.
