Re: BCS power?

I found this on ebay, 5v/3.3v transformer. Looks like the best option for the Airport Express. $15 shipped.

Re: Force Run at Powerup needs new processes added

Sweet. I'm going to run my Fermenatrix on P7, so that update will rock!

Re: Temperature Probe Identification

How do I find which version of the firmware I'm using? I'm getting the same message with the Din instead of Temp 5 and Temp 6. Do you recommend I update the firmware before I program everything? I'm working on a step-by-step setup writeup as I program my BCS. The Wiki is helpful, but there's a lot o...

Re: E-stop!

I'm going to have two 15-20A circuits in the box. Buying an estop that can handle 2x20A@110 isn't going to be cheap. If it won't work any other way, I might just put two GFI trip buttons in the box.

Can the "All Stop" button be called by a Din somehow?

Re: E-stop!

I have the all stop, but I'm looking for a mechanical button on my control box that will be in the kitchen. I'll most likely be using my iphone and brewbuddy. But by the time I get to my phone, unlock it from sleep, and hit the 'All Stop" something could have gone seriously wrong, like a burned...

E-stop!

Is there any way to program a permanent E-Stop in the BCS? Looking around, the only way I see is to add it to every state in every process. If Din8 is on then goto process 7 (all off.) Not that I don't mind programming it for every step/process, but it seems there should be an easier way. Ideally I'...

Alarm on one of the outputs?

Is there any way to set the alarm to trigger an output, rather than the internal mp3? I want to have different sounding alarms for different things (buzzer, a bell, and an alarm light.) Also, I might just wire up a remote buzzer so I can walk away from the kitchen. I know I can program one of the st...

Re: BCS power?

My BCS 462 shipped with a 6v 1A psu, so that's what's going in the box. 6vdc ~2A

Probably something like this, (which negates the 9v regulator.)

mmm cookies!

Cookies don't seem to be working. I have to log in every visit.

Not a big concern, I'm just lazy.
