Still Around
January 10th, 2010
Hi All, Just a quick update to say this project is still alive! I have been struggling with some health issues and full time job issues that have been slowing me down, but I am still working on the project. I have a prototype controller built that has full automated control over the pit and is a drop-in replacement for the current Treager controller. It has control over the web via WiFi.
Current ToDo List:
- integrate a LCD for non-web control and status at the pit
- finish the web interface and controllability via the web
- implement remote firmware updates
- debug alarms for temperature and time
- design v2 of the hardware prototype integrating an LCD and local buttons for control and other changes
- test on my 075 and post results
- manufacture 5 prototypes for field testing
Hi Ryan,
Health issues can really slow anyone down. I hope the new year brings you both good health and job security. It is so good to hear you are still working on the controller. Their are a lot of BBQ people out here depending on you.
As always,
Don O
Good to hear from you Ryan. So glad you’re still working on the project. Looking forward to your progress and I wish you a very healthy and prosperous new year.
