Re: How to send carriage return command to USB connected dev
Here is a quote from the engineer: The "Control M" character which is the ASCII for carriage return (13), when sent from a PC to the OS1p (with the modified internal software in the fluorometer) would initiate a trigger. This is not available on the older fluorometer (OS1-FL) The USB capab...

Re: How to send carriage return command to USB connected dev
Thanks MrAl! I've tried some google searches for a prepackaged device to do this but I haven't turned up anything - most likely because I am not using the right key words. What would you recommend I search for to do the job?

Re: residential thermostat hack help needed
Ideally I'd like the temperature to stay +/- 0.1 degree C of the set point.Oh yeah, also, what kind of accuracy are you after? In other words, if you set it to
25.0 deg C and it actually works at 25.5 deg C would that be a problem, or would
you really really need 25.1 deg C say?

Re: residential thermostat hack help needed
Nice, thanks! It will take awhile to gather together the parts and build it. A few questions: 1) I have 1 kOhm thermistors (normal sized and ~0.3mm diameter). Can these be used with a 1kOhm resistor in place of R2 and R1? 2) One of the nice things about the residential thermostat is that it displays...

Re: residential thermostat hack help needed
We use a 12V lead acid battery to make the unit easy to take into the field. The programmable residential thermostats I've seen run off batteries (a few volts and low current) that I could grab from the 12VDC battery. The industrial temperature controllers seem to need wall power or much higher DC v...

Re: residential thermostat hack help needed
Excellent suggestion about the industrial temperature controller! I'll look into it. Thanks!

residential thermostat hack help needed
Hi all, I'd like to use a programmable residential thermostat to provide temperature control for a thermoelectric element. I am currently using a nice DC motor control kit from All Electronics to control the heating/cooling of the element. An external tiny thermocouple is used to measure the tempera...
