Hi everyone,
I'm in the middle of designing a paint curing oven for my shop. I am going to control it with linuxcnc. The oven only runs at 120 Degress Farenheight ~ 50 Deg Celsius So far I plan on using LM35's for temperature reading. A 120V 1500W heating element driven with a solid state relay. I would like to use a 7i92 ethernet board along with a 7I66-8 serial card for IO. I can use the analog reading capability of the 7I66 to read my temperature sensors. I have a couple of questions. Can I hook the 7i92 directly to the 7i66 without needing an in-between card due to the fact that the 7i66 is a serial card? I think that this is possible, but would I be able to run one of the output pins at 60HZ PWM to drive the heating element? I suppose that I could do a HAL component PWM and just hook it up to a 7i66 pin. Also any suggestions for a mini PC that can run linux. Even just a motherboard would be fine, especially if I can power it from 24V DC and mount it inside of my enclosure. I'd prefer to remain with x86 arch.
