Crossy Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 Just for completeness here are my design files. Diagram in TinyCAD format Pond Controller V2.dsn And the Arduino sketch (open it with a text editor if you don't want to load the Arduino system) FishLevel_Revamp_Jan_18_V2.0.ino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crossy Posted January 4, 2018 Author Share Posted January 4, 2018 At least it shows someone is watching Version 2.1 without the deliberate error Pond Controller V2.1.dsn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlyai Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 At least it shows someone is watching [emoji2] Version 2.1 without the deliberate error Pond Controller V2.1.dsnI'm watching from a far.

Yeah, I routed a wire a bit close to a connector and it snapped the wrong way, too much of a rush and didn't spot it. I'll be more careful in future.

Crossy Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 OK, hopefully the final version, a couple of bug-fixes around the display handling but nothing that affects actual functionality. It's working well (famous last words?) FishLevel_V2.6.inoFishLevel_V2.6.ino Soooo, what's the next project going to be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An automated house?While in Aus at my daughter's house, they had a Christmas present of a Google Home thinggy. So with it's speech converter, you just give it commands, after training, and it processes them. Example: 'Google, what's the temperature?' Or 'Google open the front door.' Or, 'Google fill the fish pond 1 cm.'I think the Home thinggy that goes with your microprocessor is called Alexia (think that's what my son in law said.)He has the house sound, power, water etc systems controllers all allocated ip addresses so (not yet completely up and running) so he can control everything in the house with Google Home or his phone.It's really neat.So why would you? Because you can.I can just imagine sitting in my recliner and saying 'Alexia turn on the pool lights and add some fish feed to the aquaponics system'.I'd still walk to the fridge for the Leo, as need the exercise.Sent from my SM-J700F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really an IOT (Internet Of Things) person, I prefer my appliances to be dumb Just remember what happened to Frank Spencer when he visited George's house:- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Frank could have that much trouble....I hope.IOT for the chook house?
