Temperature-Controller-Software-Domination-Project


General List[edit]

  • get existing line running / selling again
  • Captive-Controller-Selection get a new captive controller to allow more bridge time / use Yudian - appears others knocked them off - maybe the comm protocol will be the same
  • Try to get Midwest-Microtech ( and others )- to pipe temperature controller stuff through me
    • Start listing controllers on MercadoLivre
  • Write drivers for as many different controllers as possible over time
  • Improve software with new features - make it impossible to ignore - Work with Doug-Lochner

Temperature Controller Dom Project Plan Schematic[edit]

Goals:

  • -1- become the defacto software standard for the chinese controller market
    • get chinese to want to list on temperature controller wiki - and submit sample controllers
    • get all interested parties to list hardware and services there

Columns of the effort

  • -1- software
    • increase security - put in time bomb random disable that will make hacking difficult. Should only execute very rarely.
    • develop drivers - need one chinese model to work
  • -2- Ebay listings and suppliers
    • list e5ax and chinese controller on ebay with links to temperature control wiki - basic package of software and bare controller - let them do the wiring
  • -3- Website - Temperature-Controller-Wiki
    • use emarket platform and develop wiki collaboration features
    • use E5AX as first platform
    • cheapest / most common chinese controller as a second platform
