I'm relatively new to artisan. Been using RoastLogger for years but now that
I have my phidget 1048 I don't need the camera/ocr feature anymore.
I haven't been able to locate the help file or information about the
settings under Config-Device - Phidgets tab. For instance, Async check
boxes, raw data, change etc. I've found everything on the github page, but
maybe I just haven't been successful in pinpointing the proper area to look.
Secondly- I'm roasting on a Diedrich IR-24, which has a thicker J
thermocouple than the one I've hooked up to artisan, which is a K type 1/8in
I purchased here:
https://www.automationdirect.com/adc/Shopping/Catalog/Sensors_-z-_Encoders/T
emperature_Sensors_-a-_Transmitters/Thermocouple_Sensors/Probes_(with_Lead_W
ire_Transition)/THMK-T06L06-01
The temperatures are around 30 degrees F higher on the thinner K
thermocouple than what the roaster is reporting, even though my
thermocouples in the roaster are mounted next to each other (didn't want to
piggyback on BT of the roaster to phidgets)
Does anyone have any experience in this area? Perhaps the simple fact that
the probe is thinner means the readings will be different, but I do not
know. It would appear that the readings on the roaster are accurate while
the other is much hotter.
Just getting started, and appreciate any guidance.
The info you provide is very terse.
“SF6” is probably http://www.sanfranroaster.com/sf-6lb <http://www.sanfranroaster.com/sf-6lb>
And “Watlow" I assume to mean http://www.watlow.com/products/controllers/temperature.cfm <http://www.watlow.com/products/controllers/temperature.cfm>
My hunch is you maybe just connected the cables without making sure that variables like baud speed, even/uneven, parity, stopbits are all set exactly the same on both ends.
SF should be providing that info / assistance in their manuals / service desk.

Hi Mitchell,
Happy to hear it was simple after all.
I have 3 USB-A to USB-C cables from Apple and they work very well.
I had one third-party USB-C memory card reader that failed after 10 months but since I had bought it at the Apple store, they immediately replaced it with a new and better one, even refunding me for part of the original price.
So great that we’re down to such simple issues, with Artisan itself working so well.
I trust everyone supports Artisan ;-) https://github.com/artisan-roaster-scope/artisan#donations <https://github.com/artisan-roaster-scope/artisan#donations>

Okay!

If you have frequently made a backup of your setup (see the 4th illustration below) then you can simply load one recent version that absolutely worked. If that does not work then it is the hardware / cable / connector that needs to be fixed / replaced.

A new version will ‘inherit’ the settings you have but its important to save and note the settings anyway.

To me it seems the USB coming from the FZ94 is not connected, or a connector is not fitted correctly, or has been yanked / damaged by frequent plugging/unplugging. You don’t seem to ‘see’ any FZ-like port info.
When the FZ94 is NOT connected I see these available ports (headphone, iPhone, other stuff):
When FZ94 connected, another port is visible:
Proof that all data is working:
I save / load proven config settings here:
Hi Mitchell,
I have the FZ94 as well, and a Macbook Pro, High Sierra 10.13.6.
You say everything was working perfectly and then it didn’t.
Since Artisan has not been changing itself you have apparently (without noticing) changed something in the hardware yourself, or a usb cable is disconnected, or a connector has come loose.
On the Artisan side nothing can be done to help.
Your computer does not ‘see’ the FZ94 right now, so no way can Artisan solve this and you must first get that local hardware working correctly.
If you can’t sort it out, get local hardware help.
Good luck!!
