In the future. Can you add a timer countdown on the main menu showing how long you have left before the garage door closes on its own? I set it for 10 mins to auto close. I wish there was a little timer showing how much time it has left before closing. This is a very amazing product. The other products on his website are awesome and affordable. It works out the box/on the LAN immediately. No accounts needed and no internet needed! I would 100% recommend this to any with a garage door or any door that needs opening. 👍
Yes it should be fairly easy to add the count down. Requires probably just one line of change in the firmware and a couple of lines changes in the javascript / ui.
I see there are some limitations on old hardware versions for this software upgrade. Is there a way to tell which hardware version I have without unmounting from my ceiling?
I took it completely down and disassembled to find my board is v1.0 - I'm glad I was able to contribute financially to the product early and help it get off the ground, but bummed the firmware is leaving me behind.
How does the Arduino USB mouse sample work? If the FTDI chip is just USB to 232 how does it register and function as a mouse?? I've always been curious about that
This is really nice! I have the Radio Shack 200 in 1 and the 160 in 1 and the solar 25 in 1 kits and I use them when my grandkids visit. I think an "off the shelf" amplifier is a great addition. Thank you foir this video. Ted
Looks like it's not available anymore :( I was hoping to buy one of these to use as a way to reduce waste from old disposables, but in 9 years, everyone has moved on to lithium, ha ha.
I know, I need to start thinking about building add on modules to use with the 200 In One electronic lab kit. This is one that needs to be added. These kits only have 3 diode, 2 NPN Transistors, 2 PNP transistors, 1 AM coil, Variable tuning capacitor, various capacitors, various resistors, and 2 transformers, and 2 digital IC's, and 1 potentometer with a switch, a keyer, and a slide switch, but no LM-386 to go along with the speaker.
Great video! Would you mind sharing which Reflow Oven do you use? And if you had to grade it. 0-10, according to your needs? You seem to have experience with these machines and your insight is very well appreciated. Thanks!
I´m using opensprinkle with a raspberry and I don´t have the opensprinkle board. Can I connected directly to the relay board and specify in the application to use with GPIO? thank you
will your system work with indexing valves? they are very common in florida. basically, a timer switches on the pump and the initial water burst causes the valve to index + 1 to the next zone. so by switching on/off the pump the next sequential zone turns on.
Hi! I've been watching some of your devices and I pretty interesting. I'd like to control the heat floor of my house wirelessly, but I don't know well how. I'd like to work with wifi to integrate the solution with a control panel in home assistant or something. The idea is to put some temperature and humidity sensors (and the possibility to choose the temperature) in every room, and send the open or close order to an other device located next to the valves which control the heat floor and the boil. Could I do this whit any of your devices? Thank you!!
Cost is one thing, and software features are another. OpenGarage has a rich set of software features including several types of automation, and it supports MQTT.
@Fred:. As with many many things electronic.... it's the journey. The joy comes with: I built it myself; I learned a lot; I can build on what I learnt then for my next project..... One can buy complex electronics goods out of China for next to nothing, but to build a radio or an amplifier yourself from those beautiful little individual parts is like magic!
Any way to tell if it's compatible with my system? this is what I have www.gliderol.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/GTS2000-Owners-Manual-V1-Board.pdf
Should be. OpenGarage is a universal garage door opener. It's basically a WiFi-enabled garage door button and works with any type of garage door system.
Hi Ray! Great Stuff! Would it be possible to get 14 buttons on an attiny45 or an ATmega328p (solo chip, no extra chip through USnoobie ),and have it working as an arcade hitbox?
ATmega328 probably yes, you can use all digital pins as well as analog pins (which can also function as digital pins). ATtiny45 would be tricky -- you will need at least 8 gpio pins to form a scan matrix (4x4), but tiny45 only has 6 gpio pins in total.
Thank you so much for posting this. We are considering to buy one of these machines. This video is a great training tool, and it taking the fear out of the decision to move forward, as I will already have familiarity with it.
Hey Ray, What kind of fish tank pump did you use? I am curious how you hook this up. Did you cut the chord and plug it in? Is this a special kind? I would love to get more information on this. Thanks in advance.
how does the robot know where the fiducial marks are? were the coordinates of the fiducial marks recorded in the system such that the robot will move to those coordinates and uses the camera to ever so lightly center on it? what is the board is skewed? will it still wortk?
