Re: Ep 1: Home Automation System Architecture
hi Manoj, > [*] Can the circuit be designed without removing the current switches. > ( As the switches are already installed and would act redundant) Probably, but you'd need to leave the current switches "on" for the automation to function. More detail would be required to provide a definitive answ...

Re: Ep 1: Home Automation System Architecture
hi Jon, Nothing like putting some pressure on ourselves ... by going public :) You mentioned that on your wall plates ... that you'll use two buttons (on and off) for each light ... rather than just one button (toggle). Any reason for that approach ? For those listening closely, you may have noticed...

Re: knock sensor
To make the LeoStick into a working knock sensor, you have to jumper the piezo speaker output pin (D11) across to an analog input pin (A0). In the code, setting pin D11 HIGH and changing it's mode to INPUT means that it won't interfere with the analog read of pin A0. The on-board piezo buzzer is a s...

Re: Sydney hacker space?
hi All,
A list of most of the Australian HackerSpaces ... http://hackerspaces.org/wiki/Australia
Typically, they are all good places to hang-out with like-minded people ... and learn about Arduino, etc.

Re: Has anyone ever actually used this board?
hi All, A number of people at the Melbourne HackerSpace (http://hackmelbourne.org) are working on Android / Arduino projects using the USBDroid, including myself. We do have end-to-end software working with the USBDroid. To build a complete application in this area involves several learning curves, ...

Melbourne RepRap Users Group (MRRUG)
hi All, Stuart, Peter, Rob and John who regularly attend Melbourne HackerSpace meetings are effectively the core of the MRRUG. Stuart holds periodic meetings specifically for 3D printer enthusiasts, where up-to 20 printers may be seen (in various states of completion). Nearly every weekly Melbourne ...

Re: Congratulations!
hi All, Having a Freetronics community to share projects / ideas and provide self-help above and beyond what Freetronics have time to do (or for a broader community perspective) ... will be a good thing for all users of Freetronics gear. There is a lot of detailed documentation, driver code and appl...
