For assistance you can contact:<br />
* [[User:Algoldor|Algoldor]] by sending an email to algoldor (you know the sign) foodhackingbase.org I'm definitely not the most experienced guy for "electronics" here but I will try to answer as well as I can and most of all I will get you in touch with the other people in the group who I would consider being able to help you out with what you need to sort out. <br />

== Soldering guide ==<br />
We prepared a comprehensive soldering-guide for the 33c3 version of the incubator. It was included with the kit; but we provide a PDF version for your convenience.<br />

'''Saturday Taster's Dream Night'''<br />
<br />
This Saturday night (6/11/2016) night (starting around 19:00) is going to be dedicated to gourmet "foods and drinks" which we believe comes as no surprise with Food Hacking Base (fhb) being around. <br />
<br />
'''Artisanal Cider Tasting''' - This is going to be the main attraction of the evening. We will evaluate variety of high quality French ciders and possibly also some samples from other countries. We are coming from our trip to Normandie so most of them will be from that region, really high quality stuff! Please do bring some ciders of your own if you brewed some or introduce your bellowed brand (good calvados is most welcome too! :-)). <br />
<br />
'''Cheese Renezvous''' - This is the second event of the night which however will to a degree "melt together" with the previous one because we do believe that good cheese and cider fit together. We will bring some French cheeses and we will also source some Dutch and International cheeses. As usually if you can bring your favorite one, 50-100 g is enough for tasting. We will label the samples and tell the basic story of the origin etc. so you can track down later on your champions.<br />
<br />
Both of these events can accommodate around 20 people or few extra and are donation based, everyone welcome to attend, no one turned away for lack of funds. What we collect will cover the spendings for the ingredients (100-200 eu depends how much we party) and hopefully part of our gas money (around 2500 km trip = +- 300 eu in diesel). If there is someone who would like to help out with extra funding please talk to algoldor (you know the sign at) foodhackingbase.org or Arnd, Emmy or Daan (SawuGo).</div>Algoldorhttps://wiki.techinc.nl/index.php?title=Food_Hacking_Base_06112016&diff=18883Food Hacking Base 061120162016-10-27T17:33:13Z<p>Algoldor: Created page with "300px '''Kombucha is easy!'''

'''Kombucha is easy!''' This Sunday 6/11/2016 starting at 15:00<br />
<br />
Kombucha culture is used to make a healthy probiotic beverage which is good for your digestion. Based on experience and variety of research it also supports your immunity system, lowers risks of variety of cancers and allergy reactions. You will learn how to brew your kombucha so you can do so at home or your local hackerspace, you will take with you manual and of course the culture.<br />
<br />
Brewing your kombucha is fun and you will all learn how to make it "easy peasy Japanesey!" I'll show you simple way how to make kombucha beverage which is going to be nice and healthy based on a stable and long living kombucha biofilm culture - SCOBY, manuals will be handed out and available electronically - [https://foodhackingbase.org/wiki/Recipe:Kombucha_brewing_manual_-_short_workshop_form kombucha manual]. You will learn how to take care about your culture from A to Z, basics but strong and lasting. We will also chat about various alternative usages like making kombucha vinegar and possible applications for micro-cellulose fiber produced by this culture (hopefully with some samples). We will share the culture of course, you will receive the result of our "long term breeding hack" Kombucha cosmopolita started already a while ago consisting from SCOBY's gathered from all around the world and regrown together! Of course there will be various tastings as always, we will see who brings which.<br />
<br />
This workshop is donation based, no one turned away for lack of funds. If you can chip in €5, that would cover it, €10 and more would be better, the cost of the fuel for this trip will hit around €300 and we hope to cover at least part of it by the events which we do where people can support us, that means you!<br />
<br />
I hope to see you all there again, sincerely, FAA</div>Algoldorhttps://wiki.techinc.nl/index.php?title=File:450px-Kombucha_mother_burdger_view_kasiri_south_korea_1600_1200_fa20052013.jpg&diff=18882File:450px-Kombucha mother burdger view kasiri south korea 1600 1200 fa20052013.jpg2016-10-27T17:30:57Z<p>Algoldor: </p>

Any proceeds will go to help finance foodhackingbase at 31c3, we will load it towards [http://igg.me/at/fhb31c3 our current crowdsourcing campaign] which will be still on!<br />
<br />
If you would like to help preparations or bring in your own dish, you are welcome to!<br />
<br />
Upon specific request we add this promise: no smelly kimchi.<br />
<br />
And finally small cherry on the cake, here is the first place where we announce the upload of the first part of the blog post about our [https://foodhackingbase.wordpress.com/2014/12/13/food-hacking-tour-winter-2014-part-i/ Food Hacking Winter Tour from 2014], enjoy!<br />

Food Hacking Base Day1 - Tempeh Workshop, hands on, starts around 7 pm, 15 people max<br />
<br />
[[File:Dan_merc_tempeh.jpg|300px]]<br />
<br />
This workshop is an introduction to soybean ferments. It will take you through the preparation of the soybeans, inoculation of the beans with the microbial culture and the subsequent harvesting and aging. The ferment which we prepare will be [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempeh tempeh] which is traditional Indonesian dish made from fermented soy bean by [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhizopus_oligosporus Rhizopus oligosporus]. <br />
<br />
The diversity of the ferments which can be prepared from soybeans is truly amazing, depending on the cultures (microbes) being used and conditions/techniques applied (and of course the treatment of the soy beans). In this workshop we will go through the basic steps which will secure proper preparation of the soy beans as a substrate for the microbes to inoculate it with. The proper fermentation conditions will be discussed and devices making it easy to full fill them suggested. We will be also harvesting the previously made ferment and as usually tasting samples of the final products. We will also recommend places where to order/buy the cultures.<br />

Food Hacking Base Day3 - Traditional Kimchi Making - 4 pm, Hands on workshop, 15 people max<br />
<br />
[[File:800px-Kimchi_panorama_mjon_ok_trip_faa2012.jpg|300px]]<br />
<br />
In this workshop you will prepare at least one, preferably two types of traditional Korean [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimchi kimchi], both based on wild fermentation, one made from Chinese cabbage and the other made from Korean radish under the supervision of native Korean [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kvasir Kvasir].<br />
<br />
The preparation of vegetable ferments in Korea, called “kimchies”, is an ancient fermentation skill based on wild fermentation starter (lactic acid producing bacteria among the others) and variety of ingredients added.<br />
<br />
This workshop is a hands-on experience that reviews the basic history and theory of Korean kimchi making and today's preparation style. Yous will learn how to make Chinese cabbage kimchi, preparing it yourselves, and, if time allows, also Korean radish based kimchi. Also you will harvest kimchi prepared in advance so you can taste different samples. <br />

[[File:Temp-test1.jpg|thumb|Prototype measuring temperature]]<br />
The fermentation controller has been a longstanding item on the wishlist of Fermentation-god [[http://frantisekapfelbeck.org/ Frantisek Apfelbeck]] of [[https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/Tastebridge Tastebridge]]/[[https://www.noisebridge.net/ Noisebridge]] fame.<br />
The goal is to have a simple to construct device that will manage fermenting a number of products; managing the aspects involved such as temperature control, timing, etc.<br />
<br />
One of the specific goals is to implement one that supports heat-cycles where one keeps the fermentation-batch at different temperatures for periods of time to ensure that, in a multi-species culture, each species will have a time for optimal growth.<br />
<br />
Other aims are to ensure easy construction , safe operation and ease-of-use.<br />
<br />
=== Current status ===<br />
== Basic requirements ==<br />
<br />
The device is primarly engaged in timing and controling temperature within a preferably insulated enclosed space containing a batch of liquid. Direct heating and/or cooling of liquid is assumed but perhaps not guaranteed.<br />
<br />
The operation of the device should be field-adjustable. As such it requires a way of providing feed-back on the device and allowing for input of parameters or adjustments of settings.<br />
<br />
It would be good to have a way of storing presets on the device for easy re-use, as well as preservation of operational settings during power-down.<br />
<br />
Since the device is involved with controlling temperature , it requires both a device to measure temperature as well as a device to control it. For our current purposes, it is assumed that keeping the temperature high enough is the basic design challenge, but optional cooling-devices should be kept in mind as well.<br />
<br />
Given that the heating of larger batches of liquids might well involve greater amounts of power than is easily feasible through low-voltage devices, the need for a safe way to drive HVAC currents might be introduced.<br />
<br />
Since the device involves controlling temperature in 'cycles' , it is obvious it will require an accurate way to time it's operation. Since the device could concievably undergo power-cuts due to deployment on renewable and unreliable power-sources such as solar or wind-power. Having the device 'forget' how far it is into it's operation would mean an almost guaranteed failure of the fermentation-batch.<br />
<br />
With the above in mind; the device could concretely consist of:<br />
*A microcontroller with enough IO for driving the below peripherals as well as internal or external eeprom-memory for storing settings/presets.<br />
*A/some temperature-measurement peripheral(s)<br />
*A display device of some kind with accompanying set of inputs.<br />
**A graphical LCD or character LCD<br />
**A set of buttons in cursor-layout and/or rotary encoders or joystick could all serve as inputs<br />
** Alternatively; one could replace or augment the onboard input/output through means of using an existing and commonly available communication-device as input/settings controller and display. Think smartphone + Bluetooth/wifi<br />
*A way to heat things; preferably liquids. Immersion-heaters come to mind. Either 12V or 110/220VAC should be considered; keeping options open for easy adjustment of existing design to fit specific needs<br />
*An option to add a cooling device. Either through the means of air-displacement and/or evaporation, or more brute-force approaches such as peltier and/or refrigeration-units.<br />
*An immersible, rugged and food-safe way to measure the temperature of a gas, liquid or perhaps solid attached to the fermentation-product. It should be able to survive the usual range of temperatures from -20 to +100 or so, and be accurate within the range of 5 to 50 degrees celsius.<br />
*Unless realized through means of battery-backup and brown-out protection, the device might benefit greatly from having a small dedicated-purpose battery-assisted real-time-clock module onboard to preserve the device's sense of time.<br />
<br />
== Basic prototype == <br />
<br />
=== Considerations ===<br />
<br />
With the above requirements in mind and the wish to have a platform that's easy for me and others to develop/prototype for, I have chosen to take the basic 'Everything is an arduino, unless specified otherwise' approach.<br />
Using that guideline, it becomes easy to have whole sections of the hardware-requirements covered with full support in the development-environment used. Arduino has a large number of well-supported peripherals available to it, despite it's further flaws. Also, the arduino environment and language is well understood by many , making it easy to find references and assistance when stuck on a particular part of things. <br />
<br />
Given that the Arduino is basically an AVR Atmega168/328 with some power-select logic and , often, a USB->Serial convertor onboard, the choice of further peripherals must come with a number of considerations in mind:<br />
*They preferably use 5Volts as a working voltage<br />
*They interface through one of the available buses on the AVR; SPI, I2C or even serial.<br />
*The perhaps come in easily acquired pre-made 'shields' available for the Arduino, if at a cost low enough to warrant not simply making one yourself.<br />
*The AVR has the benefit of containing built-in EEPROM memory, usable for storing settings/etc.<br />
<br />
=== Parts ordered ===<br />
Parts for my current 'working draft prototype' have been ordered and shipped by now and should be underway. Most of them have been acquired through [[http://www.dx.com DealeXtreme]]<br />
An overview of the parts I intend to use:<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/arduino-uno-rev3-development-board-120464?rt=1&p=2&m=2&r=3&k=1&t=1&s=118059&u=120464 Some Arduino Board ]] Approx $15<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/lcd-keypad-shield-for-arduino-duemilanove-lcd-1602-118059 An LCD and Keypad shield for Arduino ]] $6.90 A real bargain given that it solves user interaction in one fell swoop. 16x2, 6 buttons for input in extended cursor-pad layout.<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/arduino-prototyping-shield-pcb-board-blue-138294 An Arduino prototyping shield]] $2.30 Makes for easy interfacing to Arduino IO-pins and add extra onboard peripherals as well as connectors to off-board devices.<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/diy-ds18b20-stainless-steel-temperature-sensor-probe-black-151327 An DS18B20-based temperature probe]] $5.90 Not cheap, but totally foolproof to work with. Great for first prototypes, can later be retooled into calibrated PT100 setup or otherwise.<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/ssr-25da-25a-solid-state-relay-white-134494 A solid-state relay for HVAC]] $6.70 These make safely interfacing with HVAC a problem that anyone can easily and safely implement; taking the pain out of having to do your own opto-isolation and creating a seperate PSU for the isolated HVAC-related switching circuit.<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/ds1302-real-time-clock-module-with-battery-cr2032-126453 An RTC (real-time-clock) module based on the DS1302]] $3.60 Battery-backuped, precise, cheap. Comes with an extra 31x8 bits of backuped RAM; perhaps saving the EEPROM-flash from getting written too often. Yet to be purchased, however.<br />
*Various and miscellaneous bits of hardware; think plugs, sockets, powercords, wire-terminals, pinstrips, resistors, diodes, etc. Perhaps MOS-FET for driving fan or other low-voltage peripherals.<br />
<br />
=== Parts received; evaluation ===<br />
The order from DX.com came in and there's a number of things to note:<br />
* The [[http://dx.com/p/arduino-prototyping-shield-pcb-board-blue-138294 Arduino prototyping shield]] doesnt seem to be able to support stacking shields with. The pin-rows on the top are too close together to allow another shield to be stuck into this one again. Perhaps there's a simple work-around possible with an adapter-board, but it seems it's just a shame. However....<br />
* the [[http://dx.com/p/lcd-keypad-shield-for-arduino-duemilanove-lcd-1602-118059 LCD and Keypad shield]] is well worth it's money. It seems a blatant ripoff/remake of [[http://www.dfrobot.com/wiki/index.php?title=Arduino_LCD_KeyPad_Shield_(SKU:_DFR0009) the DFRobot lcd/keypad shield]] and seems perfect for the job. The amount of [[http://www.shieldlist.org/dfrobot/lcd pins it uses]] is limited to 7 digital pins and 1 analog pin, of which one digital pin controls the backlight and could be freed. The shield has a number of other arduino-pins linked through on the top and makes them accessible on a pin-headers for easily adding prototype-boards 'on the sides'; fixing the problem with the proto-shield in the bullet-point above. The DFrobot page shows how to make it work with several libraries and how to read out the button-states. One button is connected to 'reset', however.. which is weird.<br />
* the [[http://dx.com/p/diy-ds18b20-stainless-steel-temperature-sensor-probe-black-151327 ds18b20 temperature probes]] that I ordered are perfect for the job. They are more sensitive/precise than the normal DS18S20's that are used a lot; some trickery is required to convert the higher-precision digital output to a celsius/fahrenheit value. Work is underway. Attention must also be given to the 4.7Kohm resistor that must be added between +5V and the data-line of the probe (pullup) or it will not work.<br />
<br />
=== Prototype status so far ===<br />
<br />
When adding the LCD-shield shield onto the arduino and soldering the temperature probe to a free digital pin on the headers, it was easy enough to load some sample code into the arduino to display the temperature from the tempsensor. Conversion of digital values to the right celsius-value was not directly clear. A little more research is required but shouldnt be hard. My next efforts will concentrate on adding two 'wings' on the edges of the LCD-shield to mount connectors for the relay(s), temp-sensor(s), etc. After that, the next part is the hard part: designing software based on specs. I think the main challenge is to design an interface-style that works well with just 2 lines of 16 characters. Bar-graphs can be made with [=========-----] characters... etc. It would be good to look at some existing LCD-based projects to see how they handle this.<br />
<br />
=== Progress Feb4; 2013 ===<br />
<br />
While reviewing the available options with regards to menu's and LCD-panels I stumbled upon [[https://github.com/brunialti/MENWIZ MENWIZ]] which provides a simple and procedural way to create (nested) menu-structures and allow you to navigate through them with 4/6-button interface or even override some controls with self-implemented controls (like rotary encoders, etc). This is especially handy as the chosen LCD-pad currently uses an analog input and thus requires overrides.<br />
<br />
Another great thing is that it provides a way of driving the LCD via i2c/serial as well; it comes with an improved version of LiquidCrystal that is more efficient and has some nice addons.<br />
<br />
And to top it all off; the library also takes the pain out of device-resets and saving parameters by providing built-in management for them with EEPROM support. Great for this device. I will start to experiment with this library soon.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, the difference between the DS18S20 and DS18B20 has been ironed out.<br />
<br />
Code to differentiate between the two:<br />
<br />
<PRE><br />
if ( !ds.search(addr)) {<br />
Serial.print("No more addresses.\n");<br />
ds.reset_search();<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
<br />
Serial.print("R=");<br />
for( i = 0; i < 8; i++) {<br />
Serial.print(addr[i], HEX);<br />
Serial.print(" ");<br />
}<br />
<br />
if ( OneWire::crc8( addr, 7) != addr[7]) {<br />
Serial.print("CRC is not valid!\n");<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
<br />
if ( addr[0] == 0x10) {<br />
Serial.print("Device is a DS18S20 family device.\n");<br />
}<br />
else if ( addr[0] == 0x28) {<br />
Serial.print("Device is a DS18B20 family device.\n");<br />
}<br />
else {<br />
Serial.print("Device family is not recognized: 0x");<br />
Serial.println(addr[0],HEX);<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
</PRE><br />
<br />
Code to retreive data from the device (the 'sketchpad') for DS18B20 and print to serial:<br />
<PRE><br />
LowByte = data[0];<br />
HighByte = data[1];<br />
TReading = (HighByte << 8) + LowByte;<br />
SignBit = TReading & 0x8000; // test most sig bit<br />
if (SignBit) // negative<br />
{<br />
TReading = (TReading ^ 0xffff) + 1; // 2's comp<br />
}<br />
Tc_100 = (6 * TReading) + TReading / 4; // multiply by (100 * 0.0625) or 6.25<br />
<br />
Whole = Tc_100 / 100; // separate off the whole and fractional portions<br />
Fract = Tc_100 % 100;<br />
<br />
<br />
if (SignBit) // If its negative<br />
{<br />
Serial.print("-");<br />
}<br />
Serial.print(Whole);<br />
Serial.print(".");<br />
if (Fract < 10)<br />
{<br />
Serial.print("0");<br />
}<br />
Serial.print(Fract);<br />
<br />
Serial.print("\n");<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Code to do the same for DS18S20 and write to LCD:<br />
<PRE><br />
present = ds.reset();<br />
ds.select(addr[sensor]); <br />
ds.write(0xBE); // Read Scratchpad<br />
<br />
for ( i = 0; i < 9; i++) <br />
{ // we need 9 bytes<br />
data[i] = ds.read();<br />
}<br />
<br />
LowByte = data[0];<br />
HighByte = data[1];<br />
TReading = (HighByte << 8) + LowByte;<br />
SignBit = TReading & 0x8000; // test most sig bit<br />
if (SignBit) // negative<br />
{<br />
TReading = (TReading ^ 0xffff) + 1; // 2's comp<br />
}<br />
Tc_100 = (TReading*100/2); <br />
<br />
Whole = Tc_100 / 100; // separate off the whole and fractional portions<br />
Fract = Tc_100 % 100;<br />
<br />
sprintf(buf, "%d:%c%d.%d\337C ",sensor,SignBit ? '-' : '+', Whole, Fract < 10 ? 0 : Fract);<br />
<br />
lcd.setCursor(0,sensor%LCD_HEIGHT);<br />
lcd.print(buf);<br />
</PRE><br />
<br />
The trick is to integrate them both into one method and create a generic 'fetch temperature' method that'll provide the Celsius temperature of a given probe-id. The probe-id can be selected in a menu; configured (what input, what type (analog ? one-wire ?..etc) and assigned a task.. etc. This way the fetch_temp() has only to be extended with extra functionality when different types of sensors get added to the device's functionality.<br />
<br />
<strike>Upcoming: picture of the device measuring temperature</strike> Done<br />
<br />
=== Update Feb 28, 2013 ===<br />
<br />
I have since acquired a number of stacking-headers meant to be used for creating perfectly stackable shields for the arduino. The set was quite expensive, €5,00 to be exact, but it allowed me to solder them into one of the proto-boards that I had and then allow the LCD-shield to push into that shield in turn.<br />
<br />
What this means is that the original idea of adding connectors , etc, on the proto-shield is back on track and I can continue on that road. <br />
<br />
I hope to create a first test of this soon.<br />
<br />
=== Update March 15, 2013 (Algoldor) ===<br />
<br />
16:15<br />
FAA: I went through the list of items necessary for the prototyping on the experimental incubator project. I am creating my own list to order which I would like to ask others to comment on and update it because I'm beginner and I have seen that Arnd have found some "not so good options already". <br />
<br />
Importantly I'm preparing a proposal for an electronic laboratory for a project here in Jeju so the parts for the experimental incubator would be actually incorporated in it. I wonder what would be best option to share this list so it can be updated by others, maybe Google file? Will post about that within next two hours or so. The next meeting where I propose the community electronic lab build up will be held on Tuesday 19th of March, so I have around three days to make a nice list, till now I was using the list above from Arnd and the list [http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/Electronics_Lab here] for a basic info. <br />
<br />
Sincerely FAA<br />
<br />
<br />
17:15<br />
FAA: I have finished the basic proposal for the electronic lab parts and the experimental incubator parts and shared it as a Google spread sheet with the fallowing share link<br />
<br />
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AoI1FSp-qkEWdERyYzQ1UzZ1UXBMenJxVl9Ta0NYU3c&usp=sharing<br />
<br />
It would be great if you could go through that and check out what am I missing for both the electronic lab and the incubator project. I'm aiming for +- $600 budget for the electronic lab and +-$150 for the incubator at least for the moment. I will be presenting the proposal next week on Tuesday 19th of March.<br />
<br />
Many thanks for tips etc.<br />

Given that the Arduino is basically an AVR Atmega168/328 with some power-select logic and , often, a USB->Serial convertor onboard, the choice of further peripherals must come with a number of considerations in mind:<br />
*They preferably use 5Volts as a working voltage<br />
*They interface through one of the available buses on the AVR; SPI, I2C or even serial.<br />
*The perhaps come in easily acquired pre-made 'shields' available for the Arduino, if at a cost low enough to warrant not simply making one yourself.<br />
*The AVR has the benefit of containing built-in EEPROM memory, usable for storing settings/etc.<br />
<br />
=== Parts ordered ===<br />
Parts for my current 'working draft prototype' have been ordered and shipped by now and should be underway. Most of them have been acquired through [[http://www.dx.com DealeXtreme]]<br />
An overview of the parts I intend to use:<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/arduino-uno-rev3-development-board-120464?rt=1&p=2&m=2&r=3&k=1&t=1&s=118059&u=120464 Some Arduino Board ]] Approx $15<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/lcd-keypad-shield-for-arduino-duemilanove-lcd-1602-118059 An LCD and Keypad shield for Arduino ]] $6.90 A real bargain given that it solves user interaction in one fell swoop. 16x2, 6 buttons for input in extended cursor-pad layout.<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/arduino-prototyping-shield-pcb-board-blue-138294 An Arduino prototyping shield]] $2.30 Makes for easy interfacing to Arduino IO-pins and add extra onboard peripherals as well as connectors to off-board devices.<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/diy-ds18b20-stainless-steel-temperature-sensor-probe-black-151327 An DS18B20-based temperature probe]] $5.90 Not cheap, but totally foolproof to work with. Great for first prototypes, can later be retooled into calibrated PT100 setup or otherwise.<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/ssr-25da-25a-solid-state-relay-white-134494 A solid-state relay for HVAC]] $6.70 These make safely interfacing with HVAC a problem that anyone can easily and safely implement; taking the pain out of having to do your own opto-isolation and creating a seperate PSU for the isolated HVAC-related switching circuit.<br />
*[[http://dx.com/p/ds1302-real-time-clock-module-with-battery-cr2032-126453 An RTC (real-time-clock) module based on the DS1302]] $3.60 Battery-backuped, precise, cheap. Comes with an extra 31x8 bits of backuped RAM; perhaps saving the EEPROM-flash from getting written too often. Yet to be purchased, however.<br />
*Various and miscellaneous bits of hardware; think plugs, sockets, powercords, wire-terminals, pinstrips, resistors, diodes, etc. Perhaps MOS-FET for driving fan or other low-voltage peripherals.<br />
<br />
=== Parts received; evaluation ===<br />
The order from DX.com came in and there's a number of things to note:<br />
* The [[http://dx.com/p/arduino-prototyping-shield-pcb-board-blue-138294 Arduino prototyping shield]] doesnt seem to be able to support stacking shields with. The pin-rows on the top are too close together to allow another shield to be stuck into this one again. Perhaps there's a simple work-around possible with an adapter-board, but it seems it's just a shame. However....<br />
* the [[http://dx.com/p/lcd-keypad-shield-for-arduino-duemilanove-lcd-1602-118059 LCD and Keypad shield]] is well worth it's money. It seems a blatant ripoff/remake of [[http://www.dfrobot.com/wiki/index.php?title=Arduino_LCD_KeyPad_Shield_(SKU:_DFR0009) the DFRobot lcd/keypad shield]] and seems perfect for the job. The amount of [[http://www.shieldlist.org/dfrobot/lcd pins it uses]] is limited to 7 digital pins and 1 analog pin, of which one digital pin controls the backlight and could be freed. The shield has a number of other arduino-pins linked through on the top and makes them accessible on a pin-headers for easily adding prototype-boards 'on the sides'; fixing the problem with the proto-shield in the bullet-point above. The DFrobot page shows how to make it work with several libraries and how to read out the button-states. One button is connected to 'reset', however.. which is weird.<br />
* the [[http://dx.com/p/diy-ds18b20-stainless-steel-temperature-sensor-probe-black-151327 ds18b20 temperature probes]] that I ordered are perfect for the job. They are more sensitive/precise than the normal DS18S20's that are used a lot; some trickery is required to convert the higher-precision digital output to a celsius/fahrenheit value. Work is underway. Attention must also be given to the 4.7Kohm resistor that must be added between +5V and the data-line of the probe (pullup) or it will not work.<br />
<br />
=== Prototype status so far ===<br />
<br />
When adding the LCD-shield shield onto the arduino and soldering the temperature probe to a free digital pin on the headers, it was easy enough to load some sample code into the arduino to display the temperature from the tempsensor. Conversion of digital values to the right celsius-value was not directly clear. A little more research is required but shouldnt be hard. My next efforts will concentrate on adding two 'wings' on the edges of the LCD-shield to mount connectors for the relay(s), temp-sensor(s), etc. After that, the next part is the hard part: designing software based on specs. I think the main challenge is to design an interface-style that works well with just 2 lines of 16 characters. Bar-graphs can be made with [=========-----] characters... etc. It would be good to look at some existing LCD-based projects to see how they handle this.<br />
<br />
=== Progress Feb4; 2013 ===<br />
<br />
While reviewing the available options with regards to menu's and LCD-panels I stumbled upon [[https://github.com/brunialti/MENWIZ MENWIZ]] which provides a simple and procedural way to create (nested) menu-structures and allow you to navigate through them with 4/6-button interface or even override some controls with self-implemented controls (like rotary encoders, etc). This is especially handy as the chosen LCD-pad currently uses an analog input and thus requires overrides.<br />
<br />
Another great thing is that it provides a way of driving the LCD via i2c/serial as well; it comes with an improved version of LiquidCrystal that is more efficient and has some nice addons.<br />
<br />
And to top it all off; the library also takes the pain out of device-resets and saving parameters by providing built-in management for them with EEPROM support. Great for this device. I will start to experiment with this library soon.<br />
<br />
Meanwhile, the difference between the DS18S20 and DS18B20 has been ironed out.<br />
<br />
Code to differentiate between the two:<br />
<br />
<PRE><br />
if ( !ds.search(addr)) {<br />
Serial.print("No more addresses.\n");<br />
ds.reset_search();<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
<br />
Serial.print("R=");<br />
for( i = 0; i < 8; i++) {<br />
Serial.print(addr[i], HEX);<br />
Serial.print(" ");<br />
}<br />
<br />
if ( OneWire::crc8( addr, 7) != addr[7]) {<br />
Serial.print("CRC is not valid!\n");<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
<br />
if ( addr[0] == 0x10) {<br />
Serial.print("Device is a DS18S20 family device.\n");<br />
}<br />
else if ( addr[0] == 0x28) {<br />
Serial.print("Device is a DS18B20 family device.\n");<br />
}<br />
else {<br />
Serial.print("Device family is not recognized: 0x");<br />
Serial.println(addr[0],HEX);<br />
return;<br />
}<br />
</PRE><br />
<br />
Code to retreive data from the device (the 'sketchpad') for DS18B20 and print to serial:<br />
<PRE><br />
LowByte = data[0];<br />
HighByte = data[1];<br />
TReading = (HighByte << 8) + LowByte;<br />
SignBit = TReading & 0x8000; // test most sig bit<br />
if (SignBit) // negative<br />
{<br />
TReading = (TReading ^ 0xffff) + 1; // 2's comp<br />
}<br />
Tc_100 = (6 * TReading) + TReading / 4; // multiply by (100 * 0.0625) or 6.25<br />
<br />
Whole = Tc_100 / 100; // separate off the whole and fractional portions<br />
Fract = Tc_100 % 100;<br />
<br />
<br />
if (SignBit) // If its negative<br />
{<br />
Serial.print("-");<br />
}<br />
Serial.print(Whole);<br />
Serial.print(".");<br />
if (Fract < 10)<br />
{<br />
Serial.print("0");<br />
}<br />
Serial.print(Fract);<br />
<br />
Serial.print("\n");<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
Code to do the same for DS18S20 and write to LCD:<br />
<PRE><br />
present = ds.reset();<br />
ds.select(addr[sensor]); <br />
ds.write(0xBE); // Read Scratchpad<br />
<br />
for ( i = 0; i < 9; i++) <br />
{ // we need 9 bytes<br />
data[i] = ds.read();<br />
}<br />
<br />
LowByte = data[0];<br />
HighByte = data[1];<br />
TReading = (HighByte << 8) + LowByte;<br />
SignBit = TReading & 0x8000; // test most sig bit<br />
if (SignBit) // negative<br />
{<br />
TReading = (TReading ^ 0xffff) + 1; // 2's comp<br />
}<br />
Tc_100 = (TReading*100/2); <br />
<br />
Whole = Tc_100 / 100; // separate off the whole and fractional portions<br />
Fract = Tc_100 % 100;<br />
<br />
sprintf(buf, "%d:%c%d.%d\337C ",sensor,SignBit ? '-' : '+', Whole, Fract < 10 ? 0 : Fract);<br />
<br />
lcd.setCursor(0,sensor%LCD_HEIGHT);<br />
lcd.print(buf);<br />
</PRE><br />
<br />
The trick is to integrate them both into one method and create a generic 'fetch temperature' method that'll provide the Celsius temperature of a given probe-id. The probe-id can be selected in a menu; configured (what input, what type (analog ? one-wire ?..etc) and assigned a task.. etc. This way the fetch_temp() has only to be extended with extra functionality when different types of sensors get added to the device's functionality.<br />
<br />
<strike>Upcoming: picture of the device measuring temperature</strike> Done<br />
<br />
=== Update Feb 28, 2013 ===<br />
<br />
I have since acquired a number of stacking-headers meant to be used for creating perfectly stackable shields for the arduino. The set was quite expensive, €5,00 to be exact, but it allowed me to solder them into one of the proto-boards that I had and then allow the LCD-shield to push into that shield in turn.<br />
<br />
What this means is that the original idea of adding connectors , etc, on the proto-shield is back on track and I can continue on that road. <br />
<br />
I hope to create a first test of this soon.<br />
<br />

FAA: I went through the list of items necessary for the prototyping on the experimental incubator project. I am creating my own list to order which I would like to ask others to comment on and update it because I'm beginner and I have seen that Arnd have found some "not so good options already". <br />
<br />
Importantly I'm preparing a proposal for an electronic laboratory for a project here in Jeju so the parts for the experimental incubator would be actually incorporated in it. I wonder what would be best option to share this list so it can be updated by others, maybe Google file? Will post about that within next two hours or so. The next meeting where I propose the community electronic lab build up will be held on Tuesday 19th of March, so I have around three days to make a nice list, till now I was using the list above from Arnd and the list [http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/Electronics_Lab here] for a basic info. <br />
<br />
