Temp probes go to zero

I'm having intermittent issues with my BCS462. Both temp probes will intermittently go to zero and require a reset of the controller. I've tried reconnecting probes but ultimately both of my past 2 brew days have required me to reset the controller and the probes then work fine. Think it's a short s...

BCS/Rpi integration

I'd like to add flame sensing feedback to the bcs via a k-type thermocouple. Understanding that this isn't possible directly, I'm hoping to see if anyone has successfully converted an analog signal and sent it into BCS as a discrete input?

I do have a few questions that was hoping someone could help me out with: 1. How does the igniter output interact with the process when there is a call ...

BCS-462 with S8610u

I purchased a BCS-462 recently with the intent of going electric. Long story short, I can't do that yet and I'm hoping to adapt my current brutus system that has a honeywell spark ignition (s8610u). I remember reading horror stories about a yr ago when I built the system with users describing emi in...
