Temperature Controller Dom Project Plan Schematic

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
