Re: 7-segment displays

Currently having issues with the 7 segment displays. They power up just fine and go through their self test, but they are not seeing communication from the BCS. The addresses have been set and the BCS has been enabled for them, but still nothing! I have a message in to Adam to see if we can figure t...

Re: Can we access a setpoint value for display in a widget

Note: I'm still hoping for a way to set the main page process being displayed programmatically (vs. using the dropdown box). I would imagine if it were implemented to be possible to set the displayed process, then you would also be able to read which process was being displayed. Here's a function I...

Re: Can we access a setpoint value for display in a widget

How about this:

For the current setpoint of an output (f), use: ulstates[ULST_PIDSET + f] / 10 ;

For the current temperature of a probe (c) use: ultemps[ULTMP_TMP + c] / 10 ;

These were gleaned from code in control.js. There's a lot of good sample code in there!

Re: 7-segment displays

These should work out pretty good. My plan is to have BCS set to show temps for my HLT, MLT & BK on brew day. The rest of the time I'll have them showing temps for my Serving Fridge 1, Serving Fridge 2 & Fermenter. It will be nice to see & check the temps of the refrigerators every time ...

Re: Customs

You're mad at ECC for taxes that your government charges you?

Legitimate companies conduct business legitimately. That means not lying on government documents.

Yes, all Chugger stainless heads. Earlier pics had some March heads on them. Chugger heads are working great.

Re: 7-segment displays

Myself and another BCS user just received some of these Friday. One of us should have some setup in a day or two and can provide feedback.

Re: Temp probe fluctuations - all in sync with each other

First off, you have your serving fridges at 37F?? Brrr. ;) Actual beer temp is a few degrees higher. My probes are stuck down in a bottle of water that is right next to the chill plate inside the kegerators. Did the fluctuations start after you put in the extensions? I'm guessing the 22g alarm wire...

Temp probe fluctuations - all in sync with each other

I recently noticed that when my fermentor was plugged in that I was hearing it cycle on and off very frequently. I didn't have time to check things out, so I just increased the hysteresis on the output to try and help minimize the cycling. I always figured that I was getting some kind of interferenc...
