Topic: A Parallax Propeller based Host Controller for the Klondikes (Read 653 times)
Bump
Hi , So also reading in for some time now ,
thinking hard about ordering about 8 of the K-16 modules from terrahash . But I will still need a controller for it
A raspberry Pi can do the work quite nice like i see on the form
But to build it myself is more of a ting of mine , I have some experiance with a parallax propeller , wich is a 32bit , 8core microcontroller .
attached to it , it a Wiznet W5200 TCP/IP stack that handels all the networking , A server ,DHCP , webpage hosting , and controlling tru the wiznet all proven
So Id like to see how that works out to build a board , that connects strait to the Klondike Master , and then to a network connection
tru a normal brouwser you sould be able to configure and monitor things , ( HTML5 based so works on almost all devices )
Could be a verry nice solution to works as Host , making it even simpler to setup and run thos klondikes , just not sure it thats all possible yet. but that doesnt stop me :p
Programming a Pi and the neccecary programs can be tricky :p
So bring it on
And o yea , I will be wanting to buy a batch 1 klondike K-16 miner , or maybe 2 . if I can get enough money asside my already too late still tinking about it order for 8 x K-16.
But 2 to start the programming and debugging must be there ASAP so I will need some HELPPPP
