Good to know - I'll check on this when I get home - I just bought the USB WIFI dongles just for this project.

When setting up a temperature sensor, I see the option for AUX GPIO. How is this used?
Is there documentation on how to configure a mash profile? It looks like I need to click activate when I've added all my mash steps. Is there a way to delete a mash step? Can I stop the mash profile process once started?
The link to the mash step description is broken

-any way to disable the brewery logo from showing up? its kind of in the way when viewing on a mobile device
-can i easily recompile code on the pi? i'm a c/c++ guy by trade, so i can muddle my way through the code (hence trying to accomplish bullet point 1), but I'm not too good at creating the java build environments. I got ant on my raspi, but still had a bunch of errors when i did an 'ant buildjar'
-given my issues with the second bullet point, i tried to load the project into eclipse on my mac (i think somewhere in the thread you said you develop in eclipse), but haven't got that to work. I've tried a bunch of different import methods but none seem to work (i'm and eclipse noob). Can you give me some quick basic instructions on how you load the project and build?
sorry I think I may be missing something but should I be using pin 42 on the P9 header with BBB? I can't get it so see my temp probe at all. I tried one I had left over from a project and then pulled one from my working BT. It doesn't see either of them.
May I ask what control panels/enclosures you are using and how your are mounting RPi? Thanks in advance!
I use a NEMA box (which I'll be replacing soon with a wooden box with a metal backplane), to mount the SSRs and connections. Then a two piece box for the RPi/BBB since they have rear mounting holes.
Thank you Doug! What is a two piece box? Google was not much help. Also, do you use breadboard? Would you mind post a picture of inside the enclosure? Thanks again!

I haven't gone over your commits in detail yet - but is it possible to have both a heating and a cooling device in use simultaneously?
What about controlling two GPIOs from a single sensor?
Also - have there been any special considerations for the data logging, which in this use will be ran for weeks at a time perhaps. Will the BBB memory be sufficient here, or will other methods of storage be necessary (dropbox integration perhaps as a possibility?)
Yes, any standard SSR that accepts a 5V switching signal.I assume I can use the same 40a SSRs used in Kal type builds to run the elements?
What would I use to trigger the pumps on and off? Is there a relay or contactor that works best?
How do I connect the wires to the GPIO connections on the Pi? Do you use an add on board for this? Is there a connector that I can solder to the wire?
Does any one have an example wiring diagram for a build?
I'll use my control panel for fermentation control and serving most of the time, and load a different configuration file and switch over to element and pump control while brewing... perfect & economical.
Yes, any standard SSR that accepts a 5V switching signal.
You can use SSRs, or relays, either work. There's no automatic trigger, just buttons on the WebUI.
This is up to you, you can crimp ends to control wires and plug them in, or you can but things like prototyping capes, or use jumper cables, etc...
The RaspberryPi documentation shows the way I had it wired up: http://dougedey.github.io/2014/03/22/RaspberryPi-Setup/
The three SSRs show the two ways you can wire a element, two SSRs (one per wire) or one SSR (one for on of the input lines, the other is always hot, a bit less safe).
I'm exploring hiding devices from the WebUI so you may not even need to bother changing the config file, just hide the devices you're not going to use
I haven't added this in yet, I've been thinking of it though, at the moment you can just daisy chain the SSRs/relays from the same GPIO.
Not done any changes to the data logging yet, I'm going to be adding in a way to reset the data and to add on data points, and to extract data output to files. I've not looking into Dropbox, since it's not really removing data from the folder.
I'm going to add a custom data logger directory, so you could mount a external drive, or use a network mount, or point it at a dropbox sync folder which should be enough I think.
Data management is something I need to improve so you can chose to delete older logs or view them.
Interesting... I haven't wired any extra ports for temp sensors (probably my largest oversight in my panel build), so I can only have three plugged in now. I think this would give me motivation roll up my sleeves and change that however.
It's not possible for me to fit in any extra relays though - so, you're saying there potentially would be a way of linking a single GPIO to two sensors/PIDs in a single configuration file, with having only one of those PIDs in command at a time.
I meant independently - i.e. a single temp probe that links to one SSR for cooling and one for heating in hysteria and displays as a single device in the UI. A simpler implementation would be the ability to set up two PIDs from the same temp sensor. And of course, the current ability to have two PIDs - one set up for heating, and one for cooling the same kegerator/fermentation chamber is perfectly workable. Especially seeing as you could put two sensors on the end of a single cable (I think this works, been awhile since I thought about the wiring), and the sensors are so cheap.
Right on - in the meantime is it possible to reduce the sampling rate for fermentation control situations, or perhaps turn off logging completely in the case of a kegerator? Are current logs stored in memory or on disk? Just thinking out loud here not making feature requests
Thanks for the quick reply. Looking forward to getting this set up! You mentioned crimping ends to the control wire to connect to the Pi. Do you a link to a crimp on end that would work? Sorry I am a bit new to working with these boards.
Thanks!
