    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    I've got an old Leonardo but that's about it unfortunately. I could order a new rotary encoder

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    I've got a nice little toggle switch laying around. How could I swap that in place of the rotary encoder? I don't make changes at the LCD anyway, but being able to turn on/off the LCD backlight would be nice

    Hmm. The rotary encoder is soldered in place on the pcb that is in between the LCD and Arduino. If I detach the encoder, I also detach the LCD. Is that an issue?

    Solder a permanent jump wire between 7 and ground?

    The LCD backlight goes off after a little while post bootup but does not come on when turning the knob. I also tested jumping 8 to ground with no joy, again 9 to ground and no joy there either.

    well now the knob does nothing. I saw someone in an older thread mention pin 7 to ground. Are you sure it was 8 or 9 and not 7?

    guess I need to take a look at the php for that button! Found BrewPi v0.2.12 build 8d36524, running on an Arduino Uno with a revC shield on port /dev/ttyACM0.

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    That has been done :) and how I found this thread, I was looking for ways to troubleshoot the rotary encoder and found that you started a new project and I went down that path. It's great and tested well. I'm still having the issue where I can't flash the new 2.12 to the Arduino and the Rotary...

    I'm totally willing to update to Brew Pi Remix, I'm running that on the Pi as my webfront and would like to update the Arduino UNO to your 2.12 branch but it's not working through the web interface. Hopefully I'm not coming across as abrasive. I'm very excited about this project and want to...

    BrewPi Remix is running on the Pi BrewPi v0.2.10 build unknown, running on an Arduino Uno with a revC shield Just to be clear on the two issues I'm seeing: 1. Rotary encoder will wake the lcd display but does not indicate any options to change anything 2. I am unable to program the arduino...

    I dug into the BrewPiRemix site and it doesn't appear to mention using an Arduino UNO...did I overlook that? If new firmware is available, I'd give it a go.
