Hey dave,

I have a quick question.

First off, thanks for all the info regarding this controller.

Would a touchscreen, for instance on sparkfun there is the PSP screen with touchscreen, be able to work with this controller?

Second would a prebuild RTC module like this one work in place of building the RTC module?

Also, since Flygremlin hasnt responded to this thread in over a year I figure i might ask.

How is the meanwell support for the R14 code? Is it now plug and play? or is there some code I have to manipulate to get it going?

Thanks

Hi,

The controller and code would need modification to work with a different screen. There have been quite a few meanwell builds using this controller. There is a variable in the code to switch between buckpucks and meanwells because the PWM value needs to be inverted.

Hi,

Do you have any pics of the LCD intégration in the tank cover ?
The most anoying question for me to résolve is to find a way to put the LCD so that it would not be awful.

Thanks
(sorry for english)

I decided not to keep the controller in the hood as I liked the clean look without it so its remote from the fixture via a cable. If I was going to mount it so that it showed through the fixture I would probably use some sort of aluminium or plastic surround with the neccesary holes cuts/drilled and buttons glued on where neccesary.
