...yesterday i cant edit some things on the previous post... inet off... not my fault..sorry..

...well... PCF8575 (its for PWM) ...i confunded with MAX31855... too stoned... ...when i said ...maybe more than one... i refer to MAX31855 (its for thermocouples)...

http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/pcf8575c.pdf

...more info here...;)...

http://www.ti.com/product/PCF8575C/technicaldocuments

http://www.adafruit.com/datasheets/MAX31850-MAX31851.pdf


...maybe some other editions on links... but are not important...

...ok... sensuino way...


...sensuino use nokia lcd too...and modular control boxs too...;)





Alphanumeric display LCD with HD44780 controller




Graphic display LCD with PCD8544 controller ...For example LCDs in nokia 3310 and 5110...



...only for examples or ideas...

...on RTC i prefer DS3231 RTC Module...

http://datasheets.maximintegrated.com/en/ds/DS3231.pdf

http://www.maximintegrated.com/en/products/digital/real-time-clocks/DS3231.html

...more info on design resources menu...;)

...my pov...basically sensuino its an arduino + lcd module + rtc module + others modules ... on a shield...

...an modular sistem allows us to update modules for other news... yeah i know maybe lot of wires...

...but an all in one shield its atractive for me too...;) ...or more...

...about basic hardware of sensuino... arduino + lcd + rtc.... i talked before...

...for the rest of parts.... i go on pause mode... by the moment...

....one posible crazy mix....
...semi-arduino typhon way on arduino megas (modules or shields) way....
...other...
...semi-arduino typhon way on arduino nano (modules or shields) way....
...other...
...semi-ferduino way + semi-sensuino way on a mix arduinos mega and nanos (modules or shields) way...
...or... the all in one shield ...and mix all with your election... making your diy all in one shield with lot of other modules or future modules...

....time to infusion...

....the important thing its not color ...the important thing its you sure the ac neutral its ac neutral in your room (use your prefered color or the ac load its ac load from main power box)...

...sorry my english its too bad for better and large explicatons... i hope you understand...

...O2surplus iAqua Shield ver 1.1... ...only for examples or ideas...













O2surplus

Due to popular demand - I'm posting the build files for my iAqua Shield.

This version is directly compatible with AH's code,
but does allow for some expansion as new features get added to the original software.

I've downsized the size of the PcB to less than 10 cm X 10 cm to reduce costs.

Here's a photo -



The PcB design, Circuit schematic, Gerber files, and a parts list are attached.

The Gerber files were generated for use at Seeedstudios.

Use the 10cm X 10Cm size option when ordering.

Due to the file size restrictions in place on this Forum,

I was forced to separate the Gerber files into 2 smaller zip folders prior to uploading them.

Please be sure to copy all 8 gerber files into 1 zip folder before sending them to SeeedStudios

The Gerber files can be uploaded directly to the Seeedstudio site,
making the ordering process very easy.

Services : Seeed Studio Bazaar, Boost ideas, extend the reach

partslist.txt (8.2 KB)
iAqua shield gerber1.zip (34.4 KB)
iAqua shield gerber2.zip (83.4 KB)
iAqua shield PcB.zip (29.8 KB)
iAqua shield Schematic.zip (78.5 KB)

iAqua parts links.zip (10.2 KB)

I'm just waiting for a nano v3.0 to arrive so I can finish off my 4 relay timer project box V1. It will control the lighting and flower initiators of the 2 tents and keep them in sync. V2 which I am almost done the coding for will be a later upgrade, it will have the option to set the time and alarms without needing to connected to a computer via USB. I think I might have lost my access to the laser cutter and CNC machines at work so I will be going to back to oldschool drilling and filing from now on. I got in a dispute with my employer and after 10 years I'm feeling like its time to move on, most likely that means I will have to stop spending more money on these projects for a while. One good thing is I have all the parts ordered for the V2 timer and the Arduino based E-nail projects, those should keep me busy for a while still.

Once the nano arrives I will install it and post wiring pictures, BOM, and the code in my thread for anyone to use as they wish. Im sure there are some of you out there like myself that are sick of having separate timers that don't stay in sync. This V1 is a pretty simple arduino starter project and with some minor code adjustments the relays could be used as cycle timers instead of alarm timers for fan/pump/humidifier/etc.

...thanks EF... maybe you or POS would like check this post mine too;) on the ABI thread...

...or the ABI...

https://www.rollitup.org/t/small-spaces-led-organics.849178/page-3#post-11272230

...POS... about F.D.P. ...

...on AC side you deal with cos φ... or f.d.p.

http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_de_potencia ...i prefer this page info...

To understand the importance of power factor (or f.d.p.) will be considered two receivers with the same power, 1000W, connected to the same voltage 230V, but the first with a f.d.p. high
and the second one f.d.p. low

  • First receiver



  • Second receiver




...A f.d.p. low compared to other high rise, for the same power, increased current demand, which implies the need to use larger wire gauges...:hump:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_factor

...for work with the wires gauges... i work with VA data... because fdp its on the mix... sorry my bad and short english...:wall:

...on other things... ...for not hijack or saturate other threads...


...hey SDS... thanks a lot bro... ...same for CH and MM too... i have a lot of questions on indoors... maybe on this thread i can learn and ask... lot of things... but bit a bit... starting for vegetative zone or vegetative tent... maybe with two zones...one zone for seeds and clones and other zone for mothers...

...i think on a tent 1x1x2..(with 2 zones)... i think is lot of usual... and too close to 80x80 of AB tent... my inexpert opinion...but i like hear others opinions or ideas...

...hey guys...all help or ideas are welcome...

...thanks in advance too...

first question what veros for zone of seeds and clones...

...if i go with vero 10 (number of cobs, what driver, heatsink. fan. ???)...

...if i go with vero 13 (number of cobs, what driver, heatsink. fan. ???)...

...if i go with vero 18 (number of cobs, what driver, heatsink. fan. ???)...

...if i go with vero 29 (number of cobs, what driver, heatsink. fan. ???)...

same questions for zone of mothers...

...opinons or ideas please... thanks...

I use 2 5000k Vero 13s driven at 300ma and mounted on a 4" x 12" cheap passively cooled heat sink for seedlings and cuttings. It uses 21.5 watts and is just right to cover a standard size seedling tray.

Been starting my seedlings under 80w of cxa 3590 5000k. They just share space with my moms in the veg side. They do great under that lighting. Been getting quick growing and stout seedlings...best yet..
Click to expand...
...i like semi-pasive way a lot...ok for the moment...22 - 80 W for vegetatives zones... a vegetative tent 102 W...

...

...my idea to understand the indoor growing is approach it as if different areas or different tents for different phases to make a continuous cycle...

...A... zone or tent for vegetative...that can be divided ... an zone or tent for seeds or clones and an zone or tent for mothers...

...B... zone or closet to flowering... that can be divided ... an zone or tent for preflowering and an zone or tent for flowering...

...C... another zone or closet for fathers plants... that can be divided... an zone or tent for vegetative and an zone or tent for flowering...

...D... and maybe one last zone or tent to hospital or quarantine... that can be divided... an zone or tent for clones and an zone or tent for plants ...for take to care or treat diseased plants or pests... that can be divided... an zone or tent for clones and an zone or tent for plants... ...E... ...or use that same zone or tent or cabinet when the hospital its finished her work... as pollination zone or tent... ...that can be divided... an zone or tent for vegetative and an zone or tent for flowering...

...I would like to know more about these phases... going for zones and understand all a little better...

its clear to me i must begin by ...A...the first zone or tent (closet) for vegetative... ...with zone or tent for seed and clones and zone or tent for mothers plants...

...then would pass a ...B...second zone or closet for flowering and zone for preflowering and zone for flowering...

...then would happen to the ...C...third zone or cabinet for fathers plants and their zone for vegetative and their zone for flowering...

...then would happen to the ...D...fourth zone or closet for hospital or quarantine with their zone for clones and zone for plant... or ...E...fifth zone or closet for pollination and their zone for vegetative and their zone for flowering...

...as a starting point... suposse i would use a typical indoor 1x1x2 closet... its typical???... we split them and give us ...2... ...1x1x1...

...suposse i use veros or cxas...

...any help ...info ...or ideas...are welcome...

...but for zones or tents...please...

I'm looking for a side-project to work on in my free time and have been interested in learning more about these controllers. I know a little about C++ programming and would like to put it to use.

Do you think we could work together on utilizing the UNO R3? It would help tremendously to have someone else to share the experience and knowledge with and I couldn't think of a better person to share it with ;).

I would just need to buy the R3, along with any other needed components, to get the fire burning.
