Hi Bryan, thanks for quick reply. Using Firefox but tried IE9 as well. It looks wierd... none of the boxes are filled in - the defaults are blank - this suggests something wierd. BTW, Heatermeter serial output using FDTI is good... regular feed of data coming through and pit probe stable. When...

Hi, I'm trying to configure the Linkmeter using the web page. I have two questions: 1. What should I use as the values (based on the ET-732 probes)? I can select the probe type and it populates the Co-efficient A but what values should I use for: <UL TYPE=SQUARE> <LI> Co-efficient B & C <LI>...

Apologies (I'm a bit of a newbie) but as I understand, the impact will depend on the blower that you want to attach. The HeaterMeter board consumes +5v (to power the ATmega, LCD etc. The Heatermeter board brings down the +12v (+9v in your case) provided by the Router powersupply to +5 to ensure...

Once again, thanks Brian. A helpful clear summary. I was initially worred about the keycap... I could order one via mouser but it would have cost over $20 (inc shipping to the UK). After a hunt online I found the same omeron product... but apparently, in the UK we only like the blue coloured...

Hi, I now have all my components - wow the PCB is small! I'm going to start my build this weekend. Looking at what I need to do I have a few questions... 1. LCD Wiring: <UL TYPE=SQUARE> <LI> From pictures of the 3.2 board it looks like some of the LCD connections do not have pins <LI>...

Bryan, that's really helpful as the basis for my Build. I'll validate as I go along and add any other useful content so that it's postable on the WIKI (if that would be helpful) Nick

Hi, I'm eagerly anticipating the arrival of my PCB so that I can start to build the heatermeter component. I've not got that much experience of electrics / soldering and wanted to ask whether it is obvious which way round the components need to be soldered onto the board? e.g. I know diodes...

Bryan... all sorted thanks to the pointers provided. LAN connection left alone (192.168.200.x range) WAN connection configured as Client Mode WIFI with static IP (192.168.1.5) on home network Thanks Nick

Thanks Bryan

Andrew, Thanks for the link... I'm going to reset to default settings and try configuring again using the 'manual' method described. Not too familiar with vi... so going to try and get nano installed to make it easier for me. I'm hoping that "opkg install nano" will work, but may have to...

Hi, Looking for some help configuring the Wifi interface on the router. Using a wired connection is fine... DHCP address is issued by my Internet Router and I can connect and see the Linkmeter home page and configuration pages. I've now spent ages trying the different combinations of WiFi...

mmm... thanks for the replies. Interesting reminder of different materials (cardboard, sealant, tape!) and wsith the wealth of information in the forum and github I'd forgotten about Bryan's 'cut-out' fan attachment. Admittedly I had thought that the heat would be an issue but it's making me...

I'm also interested in the different methods used to attach the fan. I have a large big green egg. I recall reading that someone had bought a commercial blower attachment but looking into this it becomes quite expensive as I have to pay for shipping from the US. I have a sketch of what I want...

Hi, I'm now starting to plan my 'build' and wondered whether anyone had a high-level summary of the recommended order in which to do things? I'm thinking something like (I know the steps below will be in the wrong order!): 1. Label all components 2. Flash Router and get working (without HM) 3...

Hi, I'm just starting out on the challenge of building my own Linkmeter... Being based in the UK, I have a few additional challenges sourcing the same components without having to order directly from US suppliers and face paying for shipment and UK import charges. I'm doing ok in finding...

Hi, It's been a while since a post on this thread, and I'm not sure if the discussion has moved onto a new one. I'm in the process of getting things sorted to start building a controller and wanted to seek a little advice / guidance from those who have gone before! i've pretty much read...
