Thanks. I hadn't heard of vfpx because I've been pretty well out of work for the most part since 2003.
Haven't even seen a contract using fp since 2009. For the most part, I was working my way out of development and into management back around 2000 because I saw more and more developer jobs being sent offshore (figured management would be safer, but I was wrong <grin>) I have a copy of vfp here and for the most part, I think I would like to develop the majority of the application using vfp. At least the part that is local. Problem is, that would knock out the raspberry and arduino and require a lot more money which I have none of. Go to kaaw and enter arduino in the search box. I have seen some very nice youtube video's come across about people doing the same things that you are talking about. Here is another area I would like to experiment with as funds become available. http://www.n3fjp.com/solar/faq.htm If this works as he says it does, I wouldn't even need a hot water heater here in cental texas. -----Original Message----- From: ProFox [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Allen Sent: Monday, September 02, 2013 1:38 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [NF] testing the links in picture I have an Oregon scientific weather station and use cumulus for the software side. It's neat but maybe not as cheap. I do have a Pi and I think it's a great bit of kit for the money. Not looked into arduino though. I would like one day, when I have central heating again, to have it controlled by a computer and it seems a good cheap choice. I'm surprised anyone on profox has not heard of vfpx, and yes that's the one. There are some great ideas there including the charts which might work for you. The only problem with such things as vfpx is they are changing even when done. Seems like they are never done and it makes it hard to use when they have to be updated a lot. If that makes sense. Still very much worth a look.
