Here are some more pictures I took which show the connections to the heater controller boards.
The gray ribbon cable is for the heater controller boards. It was an add on I did later when the heaters we were using started dying.
Another picture which shows the heater controller ribbon cable and also the power jack going to the heater controller too which is 12 volts DC.
The heater controller box with the Mosfet boards. The left white wires are the output to the SSR’s but the very top one is power from the Anodizing Controller box which goes to the top green connector of each board.
The right ribbon cable wires are the control wires from the Esquilo GPIO pins. The connector is actually a 3 pin but only two pins were used.
This shows the bottom side of the Anodizing Controller box with the power and data cable going to the lower box.
Shows the output ports going to the SSR’s. The top port is power from the Anodizing Controller box.
This shows the connections between the boxes. The power and data coming out of the bottom of the top box going to the bottom box.
This shows the ports on the top box, the bottom one being the power in and the rest are for the temperature sensors. I have two Y cables so there are a total of 8 temperature probes.
That’s all for now will be working on the code and other stuff next.
