Re: [Owfs-developers] control voltage on 110v ac circuit

Depends a lot on the motor. If it's an induction motor (quiet) you basically need variable frequency drive (VFD), if it's a universal motor (noisy) a light dimmer will work fine (if it is rated for inductive loads). If it is a squirrel cage or shaded pole, you really can only use the speeds i

Re: [Owfs-developers] DS2406 support Broke in 2.7p4?

Michael beat me to it... We don't use the 2406's for switching at all; its all about detecting. I did not try the p8 build, but the 2.7p4 definately has the problem, and 2.6p7 does not. I tried to build the 2.7p8, but the gentoo ebuild failed (something appears to have changed in the configure s

Hi Paul, I will check the new version later this week. But the problem was not with switching (PIO), but with sensing (sensed). Our switches work fine, but the one unit where we sense the current of the lamp (also using ds2406) always reports sensed.A=1 (and sensed.B for that matter, but nothing
