Description: This is the first stage of a collaborative build of greenhouse controller. The primary purpose of this controller is to operate two motors for roll-up sides through a relay box that was built during a workshop hosted by the CAPE in Quebec. The secondary purpose is to operate a heating system with the powerswitch tail available from adafruit.Add new comment Documentation Documentation Wiki: Bill of materials Arduino uno, pro-min, mega $5-$50 ds18b20 temperature sensor with pull-up resistor $15 CDN JW-100-M Male Crimp Pins and Housing $15 CDN 610 Panel Mount 2.1mm DC barrel jack $4 CDN 15-0298 Stereo Plug Solder Lugs 3.5mm $1.30 CDN 70-534B 3.5mm Stereo Isolated Chassis Mount Jack $4 CDN 1-2 762-ADA Cable Gland PG-7 size - 0.118" to 0.169" Cable Diameter - PG-7 $2.80 CDN 63-ADA 9 VDC 1000mA regulated switching power adapter - UL listed $10 CDN 22 AWG solid hookup wire.
