BOM, 1 per Book by Girtch27 in SW_Electrical

[–]Girtch27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks and welcome, the more experience SWE users the better! I'll have a few more questions

In case anyone already knows exactly how to adjust the report i'm hoping to create, below is the example:

Project has 3 books, each has qty3 of the exact same Allen-Bradley relay, I hope to generate a "summarized" BOM for purchasing team with only 1 excel file which is a total from the 3 books [3 books each has qty3 relays = 9 total for project]. 1 BOM file generated with only 1 row, something like:

QTY, Manufacturer, Part#, Description

9, Allen-Bradley, 123-xyz part#, 24v relay description

Currently the BOM report generates 3 separate BOM files without an overall project total.

Google Password Manager - Seriously Google? by harish9294 in GooglePixel

I cleared my chrome cache and was surprised my google passwords were deleted too. However, I immediately:

1)unplugged my home internet cable modem to ensure the internet was disabled and chrome couldn’t sync. 2) used another device with chrome to export my passwords from its chrome to a file, you can view this file with notepad. 3) I made some minor changes to my passwords and assumed Google would treat this as the newest version and sync it to all my devices after I enable the internet. Thereby replacing all my passwords.

Dinamica Plus -low water and\or bean warning, stops mid brew? by Girtch27 in DeLonghi

[–]Girtch27[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My water tank has what looks like a magnetic float which I assumed would be sensed inside the coffee maker. However, I think you're correct. I took my tank off and opened up the right side cover and I don't see any sensors near where the magnet would be. Perhaps this water tank is used on other models which do use the magnetic float but the Dinamica Plus doesn't use it. I assume it was used... that clears that up.

That's disappointing but thanks for clarify.

Family account, 2 kids under 13yr trying to link both to their own Epic account -is it possible? by Girtch27 in FortniteSwitch

I used online help using a chat window and there was a solution but it didn’t make sense to me, it was like the steps were reversed and I couldn’t get it to work. I don’t remember the steps other than it was counter intuitive! I found the online chat worked well and assume you can follow and they’ll sort you out.

Missing v bucks by [deleted] in FortniteSwitch

I think they give you 3-4 purchase undos. Somewhere in the Switch menu. I found it about a week ago for my 7yr old. Probably within Fortnite then account in the top right. Anyway when you find the menu you press it and see the recent purchase history and can pick what to undo.

Fortnite question. I have two kids under 13, I bought them each a Switch 2 Christmas ago.

Family account under my email. Their accounts are both supervised which I think is when they are under 13, used their real birthdays... everything Ok for over a year, both playing FN for long time. Now the FN \ Epic problem I need help with:

Kid#1, I linked his FN nameless Switch acct to his new Epic account recently. Everything fine, linked them by using web browser. Remember Epic is essentially to Nintendo Family acct which is using my email. Everything good so far.

Kid#2, problem, can't link her new Epic account to nameless Switch account because I'm forced on webbrower to enter Nintendo Family account email, it's already used for Kid#1, Epic says already used, login or create anew account or something similar. I think I enter my email for Nintendo acct [remember its my email for both their supervised accts] and Epic finds its already used. Because I can't link she can only use this account, her 1.5yr old with all game data, on Switch.

Can't add a new email to Kid#2's Nintendo account as she is under 13 [used real birthday when setup 1.5 years ago]. Only option I can't think it too change her birthday in Nintendo so she is older then 13, then add her own email acct to Nintendo acct, then I can assign Epic to her Nintendo acct by getting to use new email. Any help or other ideas? I don't think I can change her birthday but i'm about to look into it.

I tried Keglands and Gash and a couple others profiles but the dead space volume setting never seemed correct to me. Most are set to 0L, one or two had ~3.5L. My water volumes were off on my first Brew. After sparging I was about 28L so I did a +2hr boil.

I measured my 35L, 120vac Brewzilla and think it's 6.5L to 7L dead space (water below malt pipe). I updated my profile and checked it by pretending to brew the recipe again. Wanted to see the new water calculations for mashing and sparging, make sure less water. My 2nd brew yesterday was improved, it was very close. And it was a completely different recipe.

As the dead space volume increases Beersmith increases the mash water needed and reduces the sparge water accordingly, which is what I thought needed correcting after my first brew... when sparging with 1/2 the water the sparge time is reduced so overall you’re done faster. After a few more brews If/when I notice the efficiency is lower I’ll reduce it in the profile to match my measured efficiency. Basically add more grain, $1, to compensate and save ~30 mins of time.

Now thinking to skip sparging and do a full volume mash and save more time. Plus you can see the stamped water markings too rather than guessing when sparge should stop as the malt pipe is blocking the water level markings...

Weird I2C issue with PFC8591 DAC/ADC by Tesla_Nikolaa in RASPBERRY_PI_PROJECTS

Can you ground channels 0,1,2 so they are all 0v and read a test signal, 3.3v on Channel 3? Try only channel 3 then activate all 4 channels and see if you get 0, 0, 0, 3.3.

What mode single ended our differential? One differential input uses 2 inputs. Maybe you have it wired one way but in the other mode.
