I posted before I read the last post what you are doing is an order of magnitude greater in professionalism than what I am doing. Great Thread. I scavenge most of my parts and use 12v car relays with transistors driving them and leds to suppress back emf so to see this is amazing.

another option if you have more time than money is the picaxe. The boards are not too bad in price but I just use the chips with 2 resistors and a serial port to program. (of course you would still need the relays etc..)The arduino is good and if I had the money I would get one because of the...

Thank you sooo much for your fast reply. There is no handshake right now I just have a pikaxe 18X set up to send the example from the usb weather board datasheet at about once a second.( I have 2 sensors that it reads then displays the readings on an lcd and then it sends the example. The actual...

No, I did the first time I tried and realized that the com port was in use so I closed it and same problem. I unplugged the usb and plugged it back in and same thing and I restarted and same thing. I have never sent data to a computer before only lcd screens. I am using the µUSB-MB5 USB to...

I'm having an issue connecting to my sensors. I don't know how to get herb.iq to connect to my com port. I am sending the example from the sparksfun usb weather board and using termite (a terminal program) I am able to see the serial string.(9600 8-N-1) I tried to install the sensor service...

Thanks for your fast reply! You are too generous! I decided to use the scheme that is in place cauze I only have 1 temp and humid and then 2 light to freq sensors. I see that the cells of data are separated by commas but will herb.iq need to parse the decimals in the temp cells? If there is a...

Great Program! I was wondering if it is possible for me to create a custom parsing scheme for my data coming from my sensors?

Nice job. Try to get the plants to rotate slowly under the light.
