How about writing a script using the API?

Re: Powering bcs-482
It is a shared ground. Having them separate would serve no purpose. If you are running DC relays or LCD displays with another power supply, make sure you tie that PS ground to the BCS ground as well. All grounds in your DC power should be common.

Re: Issues with re-starting BCS, unexpected reset, lost o network
Networking issues are always a tough one to figure out. Since it's working when plugged into the router, I'm guessing you have a DHCP issue going on. Again, tough to figure out without knowing how each of the components is configured and which is handing out DHCP addresses.

Re: BCS-460 - Power-Up Display Issue
Check the data lines from the BCS to the displays. The displays have their own firmware running on them, so you will see them power up and go through that whether they are connected to the BCS or not. Also make sure you have a common ground from the BCS ground to the LCD power supply ground.

Re: Trying to connect to BC462
You need to backup your processes first, then do the update, then you can restore/migrate using the 4.x utilities.

Re: Trying to connect to BC462
If it is an older BCS, then you're probably on the 3.x firmware. You can download the old finder at the link below: http://demo.embeddedcc.com/downloads/BCSfinder.exe I would highly suggest loading the new firmware for it once you find it on your network. If you previously had the BCS on a static IP...

Re: integration with other brewing software/devices
What programs give you malware alerts? Stuff from ECC/BCS? The BCS has an open API that uses JSON data formats. It's actually pretty easy to control and/or read & write the BCS from the API. There are several programs on the forums here that folks have done. There's also the BCS backup/restore &...

Re: Power cycling
It will revert to your processes being stopped - if they were running. However, you can set processes to auto-start, in which case, it will pick up where it left off if you logic is set accordingly. I have a BCS that runs my kegerator and fermenters set this way, so it can always go back to where it...

Re: Recipe Utility
Recipe utility??? What am I missing here? The BCS recipe utility let's you quickly edit settings like temperature setpoints or timer values without having to go into each process/state that needs modification. Most users keep a consistent configuration and just modify those necessary values based o...

Re: Voltage issues
I've used several different Electronics Salon boards and they work well. They have them mounted in DIN rail brackets as well. Got mine on Ebay, but maybe their Amazon store has them as well (I didn't look).
