pi interface
As i understand it you can login to the BCS controller with any browser? Is it possible to setup a simple Raspberry Pi with a monitor to constantly display your BCS controller system?

Re: pi interface
I don't see why this would not work. The Raspberry Pi has several operating system options, including a few Linux distributions. It seems logical that you could have the Pi with Raspian Linux and the Chromium browser running. If you are a Windows guy, you can also run Windows 10 IOT on the Pi.

Re: pi interface
Like BrewMasterBrad said, you can use Raspian and the Chromium browser.
I've developed a customizable GUI interface that you can also run on a Pi.

Re: pi interface
Sweet, thanks guys. I am going to order the hardware and give this a shot for multiple conical control/display.

Re: pi interface
I have got this running now on mine. The only issue I am having is accessing the controller for a different computer on my home network. The BCS is connected via ethernet to the Pi and the Pi is connected via wifi to my home network. They are in two different networks so it seems that the forwarding between the two is not working properly.
I will see what I can figure out and report back unless someone on here has an idea. I used the link on my other thread in the forum to install the two networks through a script that you run.

Re: pi interface
I use a RPi to run the front end of my brewery. The pi is connected to a touchscreen in my brew panel. I've use either the software developed by Jon, or the web interface to the BCS. I've been happy with the current Ubuntu Mate OS, but Rasbian works just as well.
