redtop's Ferduino controller

[redtop03]

Marc, it's gonna take me a while to go through the latest version with the up scaling...

the Joy-Reef new additions look awesome, you might wanna load it up with the 3.2 screen and get a feel for how all the web interface works, you may not even wanna mess with the bigger touch screen once you see it on Joy-Reef on your PC monitor, my 23" HD monitor looks a million times better than the 7" screen

once I get finished with the up scaling, it'll just be a matter of swapping out the screens and reloading the code, everything else should work as Fernando has it set up now, I wont change any of the function stuff

I have to work tomorrow for a few hours, once I get back home, I'll get started messing with the new code some, if I could just swap out a few tabs between the codes, it would make things much simpler but it all looks a bit different now

Fernando thank you
Reds first chance I get will give it a try
I've been working a lot the colder it gets the less time I have to play

 

[redtop03]

Fernando, am I understanding your latest Ferduino code, is it written to work only with the W5100 Ethernet module now ? the ENC28J60 Ethernet Shield is no longer compatible ?

 

[redtop03]

I think I have most of the up sizing done now but I don't have the W5100 Ethernet module for testing, and I had a couple errors to sort out still, had to comment out a few lines to get it to compile but I'm still working on it

Hi!

At "webserver.ino" on "void processRequest()" delete:

  uint8_t remoteIP[4];

 client.getRemoteIP(remoteIP);

Serial.print(remoteIP[0]);
Serial.print(".");
Serial.print(remoteIP[1]);
Serial.print(".");
Serial.print(remoteIP[2]);
Serial.print(".");
Serial.println(remoteIP[3]);
if(((remoteIP[0] == joyreef[0]) && (remoteIP[1] == joyreef[1]) && (remoteIP[2] == joyreef[2]) && (remoteIP[3] == joyreef[3])) ||
((remoteIP[0] == ip[0]) && (remoteIP[1] == ip[1]) && (remoteIP[2] == ip[2])))
{

Before:

    delay(2);
    client.stop();

Delete:

    }

Without this function should work with ENC28J60.

Don't forget to add libraries for ENC28J60.

Let me know if you have any problem.

Best regards.

Fernando Garcia

Redtop ENC28 was abandoned some time ago in favor of the W5100

 

[redtop03]

thank you Fernando, I may try that later but I think I'm just gonna order a W5100 Ethernet module since it seems to be a lot more plentiful anyway

I bought too many Christmas gifts this year though, I'm financially drained right now LOL it'll be a little while until I can build my controller play money back up

LOL yep, I'm way behind Marc, my running Ferduino still has the older module but it stopped working correctly a while back and I've just not had time to figure it out...so it's about time for an upgrade

 

[redtop03]

Marc, do you already have the W5100 connected to your controller ?

 

[marspeed]

I can't wait to see what you bought me for Christmas
Yes I have the module hooked up but I do not have it running I was going to give it a try but heard about the new version and your up scaling and did not want to set it all up twice so I am in a holding pattern

 

[marspeed]

I have the module not the shield I think it is less work with the module

One more thing I looked at that iaqua controller it looks sweet but doesn't have nearly the functionality of fernandos controller

OK cool, soon as I can, I'll try to get you a copy to test, I don't have the W5100 yet so the code may need a lot more work

That's what I'm gonna get too

I've not looked at the iAqua much yet but there's very few if any other controllers as complete as the Ferduino

comparing the iAqua to Ferduino is apples and oranges the iAqua is a fresh water controller that is why it doesn't have all the bell's and whistle's of a reef controller

very true, I like the looks of the graphics with the iAqua but I've not looked at the functions much yet, I'm sure that with some coding knowledge, the iAqua could be adapted for reef tank duty too....

basically, all I'm using is LED control, wave control, and temperature control with my Ferduino, I will put a lot of the other functions to use if I can ever get my big tank back up but that may be a long time from now....

I'm more interested in messing with these controller than I am with taking care of my tank now though

same here Willie I am learning a lot more from the build of the controllers than the use of.. and to just find out that Fernando taught him self how to do all the arduino coding that is an inspiration in it's self just like Steve from aqua porn. Guess I will try to learn some over this winter..

I've learner a lot about the coding from just messing with the resizing and adding stuff here and taking away there, but there's a boat load of it I just can't wrap my mind around, but I learned a long time ago, if I don't try, I'll never figure it out
