Tank Manager (for mobile devices) updated

[RussM]

Very nice... just emailed you a iPhone screenshot.

And a landscape mode shot is on the way too...

Nice; thanks Russ.

Start of graphing; notice the links on each probe and outlet

Right now it is a text output of what will be graphed but it's a start...

This is great! I was planning on making a comparable app for the Palm Pre, but this solution works well on many devices instead of a single mobile device. Nice work!

The Palm Pre's browser is also webkit based. I noticed you changed the viewport sizing on the tank status page, but some of the other pages are not scaled very well. See this screen shot for an example.

For reference, this is what the tank status page scales to and this works very well.

I made the same update to the login page so it should look much better now if you want to give it a try...

Hey, Ken... as always, awesome work! I just sent you another screen shot. In portrait mode, the username field is visible upon initial load, but the password field is off-screen until the user scrolls down.

You could either remove some whitespace, or simply move the username & password fields and submit button to the very top of the page. (or do both)

Cool thanks once again!

I did a little reordering; hopefully this looks nicer.

I have some initial graphs hooked up but I'm sure they don't scale correctly but it would be interesting if someone would let me know what they look like.

Everything looked great about 8:45 central time, but I just checked in again and now 9:43 the graphs are shrunk beyond recognition on my treo. I can't send a screenshot but I can take a pic when I get home from work at 3:00am.

Did I even have graphs at 8:45? The only change I can think of is that I changed from a fixed size to allowing the graph control to choose the size; I changed back; see if that makes a difference?

 

[mjd33]

That fixed it. There's no amp graph though and it seems to be graphing oct. 14. Is there a date selector I'm missing? by the way it looks real nice!

 

[Deleted member 143833]

Yes, I found a bug in the Apex wrt amp graphing. The EB8 is called 1 thing in status and another in the logs so the names don't match up and as such it thinks there is no data. I send bug report to Neptune to get it fixed but if they can't I'll make a temp patch. Since it should be very close to beta update I'm hoping I can get them to take it for that...

 

[Deleted member 143833]

I have temp fix until Neptune fixes the XML; amp graphs should work now.

Great job Ken!

Thank you, this works wonderfully. I travel a lot and it's great to be able to monitor the tank (especially since this is a new setup) via my Palm Pre.

Thanks again for your hard work and contributions to this community.

Ken - awesome utility! Works great on my blackberry storm. Kind of surreal to press a button on your cell phone and watch something on your tank turn on :lol: Thanks for the hard work

Would it be possible to add a remember username and password feature to the login ?

I have the Palm 700WX with Window Mobile version 5 I tried "Windows Mobile Compact Framework Professional Application (CAB)" and I also tried "Windows Mobile Compact Framework Standard Application (CAB)"
Both cabs installed but neither will function. I get "An unexpected error occurred"
Am I missing something required to make it work or is it that my OS is not compatible?

Be sure you have the latest Mobile Compact Framework installed from the Microsoft download page.
