Freeze Pack Controller

[Unseen]

Here in Greece we work as a team Crmaris is already a part of it.
He writing software for the new bigger model controllers.His programming knowlegde will help us. I have saw his work and he is making amazing job

Thank you ari.

[crmaris]

Anytime Christos. I am very proud to be in the same team with you,Eleven and Gsmaster

Show us some screenshots

[crmaris]

here you are. The latest version. I 've added take screenshot and magnify options yesterday

[crmaris]

and one last


every day the program is being improved and new functions are added.. This was an excellent opportunity for me to exercise my programming skills you see

[Jack]

Nice! You're doing one hell of a job

I think he meant me and Ssilencer!! :-)

But your program looks really really nice!! I want to make a similar program for my controller, I hope I will get it ready soon, hehe!! But to make it like yours, it will take me a bit longer...
It looks very well done!!

thanks.. I am still improving it. So far it took me about two weeks but there have been days that i was writing code for about 10 hours without stop The most difficult part is the communication with the controler(especially if you use the usb port) .

sorry my friend, I have already edited the post

A guy here in my country already put one in his custom ss. He told me that it worked ok and he sent me a pic...




Another thing i forgot to mention is that if u press down and escape the controller ask you if you want to restore to default values + calibrate the sensor. A good way to calibrate is with ice and water.

that's me ...
It works like a charm.
Fantastic work keep on man !

Tommorow i will ship some to Europe phase change makers.

unseen, it wouldn't be hard to adapt the controller with a simple transformer swap, provided it isn't sensetive to the ac frequency.

Just wondering, but why not use one of these, you can easily mount it on the back of the case, and then run external power source. Transformer pack. Thats what I did with my G-Froster. I just got a 15v transformer pack. Looks really nice, and adds some bling factor. :-D

This controller needs 9V AC or 12V DC power to work.

The Amperage is depentent on the fans you will use.
The board power supply can give 2A max @12V.
The unit without fans connected draws about 120 - 130mA max.
So the rest 1.87A is available for 12V fans.

The power board has screw in terminals for the power cables.

A little OT: Know what I'd love? I'd freaking love to tap into my 5vsb rail for a controller, what do you think guys? Possible to step up to 9vac, or bypass something on the controller?

That controllers looks great, keep up the good work guys!

[LittleDevil]

Really nice units...

tnx

Remember most power supplies only have 2A on the 5vsb.

npk, LittleDevil thanks!

Yes this could be done, but again you have to use a psu for the fan outputs.
A modified controller will work @ 5V but the fans no. A DC-DC converter would draw more than 2A@5V, in order to give at least 12V@2A for the fans
Its a bit of work to do and I dont think it worths it. It may not work with all PSUs.
And something else. The current version cuts off the mains voltage from the PSU so it won't have any voltage @ 5Vsb
