    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    Has anyone done or looked into tunneling vnc over ssh on their brewpi? It's described here http://www.penguintutor.com/linux/tightvnc

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    Thanks guys that worked now I need to test which one is heat and which one is cold. Can't wait to try this out next weekend when I brew!

    Then they show as device type switch actuators once they are assigned to either chamber heater or chamber cooler?

    BrewerJack where do you assign them to channels? Is this in a config file or within the maintenence panel somewhere?

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    Has anyone had issues with the switch actuators showing up? The temp sensors showed after I replaced my 4.7k resistor. It does show other devices under the device manager however they show as unknown.

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    Is there any reason why I couldn't use female to male dupont pins from the ssr to the arduino board? Trying to minimize the amount of soldering I have to do. I can understand needing the thicker gauge cable on the ssr to the 120v power and the power socket. Is the thicker gauge need from...

    Stc-1000+

    Well my other stc1000 was the version 1.1 so now I'm going to go the DIY brewpi route. Was already looking for another use for the arduino. Wanted to say thanks again to everyone for their help.

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    BrewerJack thanks for the info I've used the same project boxes for my stc1000 builds. What is the wattage of the 4.7K resistor? Almost picked one up at Radio Shack earlier in the week but was thrown off by this.

    HOWTO - Make a BrewPi Fermentation Controller For Cheap

    I'm very interested in this project haven't read all the posts as of yet. Any suggestions on how to house all these components the arduino, 2 channel relay, power receptacle, and raspberry pi? Have two little ones at home don't want to have to worry about them touching something they...

    Stc-1000+

    Want to validate I understand this. If I set SP0 to say 38 degrees with a dh0 of 0 and don't set any other profiles or setpoints it will keep the temp within the +/— of the hy setting forever is that correct? I have two stc1000 I want to flash the other one that is currently in use on...

    Stc-1000+

    barrooze took your advice and heated the bottom and pushed in the pins from the front. Had a good scare when I hooked it backup and the alarm was going ( I had forgotten to hook back up the temperature probe). After adding some more solder I was in business. Thanks again for the advice...

    Stc-1000+

    That is correct I'm able to upload the sketch I run the serial port monitor if I hit d without it connected it tells me it cant find the stc1000. I put the pin header on the 5 pins that need to be connected the stc1000 front panels displays like 21 . something Celsius by this point the Com...

    Stc-1000+

    Alpha I read a similar article where the guy was trying to power a servo motor through the ardiuno and he would lose connectivity. They suggested he use external power for the servo motor and it worked for him. I'm using the solder less method at this point the stc1000 powers up when I make...

    Stc-1000+

    The only time I lose the connectivity with the ardiuno board is when I make the connection to the stc1000. I will try another board if I can find one locally this process seems pretty straightforward doesn't appear im missing anything unless I'm selecting the wrong board within the ardiuno ide...

    Stc-1000+

    Just tried it on another computer and it does the same thing Java io exception input/output write array. I bought this sainsmart board off Amazon I'm selecting ardiuno uno should I be selecting something different...

    Stc-1000+

    I'm beginning to think this ardiuno board is the problem. As soon as I make connections and attempt to send the d command. The application throws up Java io exception errors. When I go and look the board is no longer recognized and not seen on the Com port. I've tried swapping to...
