Chillmon is our Raspberry Pi powered system for maintaining the proper temperature in the Beer Church fermentation chamber. It interfaces to IRC, like so:
<+Toba> !temp < chillmon> temperatures: beertop: 67.9 F, beer: 68.5 F, room: 64.4 F
Interfaces
There's a web interface running on Bellamy that shows the PID controller state history.
- http://10.100.0.106:8008/
- You can get a stream of JSON objects over ZeroMQ that might interest you from tcp://10.100.1.76:7000 if you know how to do that.
- Chillmon's irc interface should be workin' right now.
Hardware
AC Unit
Wiring: green ground, white common, red fan, thicker red AC chiller.
RPi
- Mac: b8:27:eb:fd:d5:a4
- IP (maybe): 10.100.1.76
- Username: pi
To find the IP if that IP isn't working, use:
eastein@bowmore ~ :) $ sudo arp-scan -R --interface wlan0 --localnet | grep -i b8:27:eb:fd:d5:a4 [sudo] password for eastein: 10.100.1.76 b8:27:eb:fd:d5:a4 (Unknown)
If you don't use linux, I'm sorry that you are trying to do useful things with your computer, but I can't help you.
The screen session containing the chillmon process starts up at reboot on the Pi using vixie cron's @reboot in the pi user's user-crontab.
