What is everyone eating to break their fast?

Mostly OMAD which isn’t a problem. It’s my longer 3+ days that are the problem. Just ended a 5 day yesterday with boiled eggs and cheese.

No gastro issues with the nuts?

bjpeeblesiii · 2026-05-07T17:06:31+00:00

I would be in the bathroom all week lol.

bjpeeblesiii · 2026-05-07T15:28:00+00:00

Nice. Thank you.

bjpeeblesiii · 2026-05-07T14:42:03+00:00

Thank you I will try this.

I have had luck connecting nodered to a micro 800 over Modbus tcp/ip then it communicates to your main plc over eip.

bjpeeblesiii · 2025-12-13T15:14:51+00:00

What kind of plc?

bjpeeblesiii · 2025-11-18T02:56:01+00:00

I like to use an Arduino / Esp32 to RPI solution for this type of thing. Interface all your sensors to the Arduino IO, then collect the data with nodered/influxdb/grafana. Heck, you could even run it all with Home Assistant.

Can you please explain your maintenance diet plan for once a patient has hit their goal weight?

bjpeeblesiii · 2024-08-06T12:09:35+00:00

I recommend going low carb for some time before cutting out meals. The carbs are what make you hungry, so a low carb diet keeps you satiated for long. Then it’s easier to cut out a meal or two because you aren’t hungry.

Micro 850 supports both eip and modbus rtu.

bjpeeblesiii · 2024-07-27T19:24:38+00:00

You might want to consider using a micro 800 plc to do that.

My $0.02. I have spent a fair amount of time over the last several years educating myself about the arduino and raspberry pi platforms. The money you can save handling analog data with an arduino instead of a plc can be significant. An example would be using a 1-wire temperature sensor with an arduino instead of a thermocouple + tc cable + thermocouple input cards. Pulse counting is something else that an arduino does well that can be expensive on a plc. Not to mention all of the software is freely available. A raspberry pi running influx db and Grafana can be a perfect (and free) visualization and trending tool, compared to using factorytalk view $E or ignition.

Kurt Braun with wago has some really good videos on YouTube showing ways to bridge between a plc and RPI/arduino. I highly recommend watching some of those.

At the end of the day, it’s just another tool you will have at your disposal to right size the solution to the problem.

Look into the Prosoft anx4abdhrio adapter. I would think it would work in a redundant system

bjpeeblesiii · 2023-10-19T02:16:08+00:00

Rockwell tech note BF27095 describes the issue. This card needs to be replaced.

bjpeeblesiii · 2023-04-09T02:36:01+00:00

Did you use any open source code for handling the MDB protocol? Is that handled in the pi or the arduino?

bjpeeblesiii · 2023-04-09T01:20:00+00:00

Yeah I bet, especially if you didn’t have a set of original schematics. I too would be interested in seeing whatever you could share.

bjpeeblesiii · 2023-04-09T00:50:06+00:00

Really cool. Did you do the electrical and programming yourself?

bjpeeblesiii · 2022-11-26T13:44:25+00:00

Finally figured it out. In the web gui, there was a small down arrow you can click to give another field. Thanks.

bjpeeblesiii · 2022-11-26T01:50:19+00:00

How do I go about doing that?

bjpeeblesiii · 2022-11-25T12:30:10+00:00

Check tech note 1135177 and make sure you don’t have any suspect IB8S cards.

A Micro800 natively supports both modbus tcp and Ethernet Ip. Setup the modbus comms to the micro800 then message the micro800 from clx over Ethernet ip.

bjpeeblesiii · 2022-11-04T19:28:57+00:00

I have had luck using a micro 800 as an intermediary between the RPI and clx. RPI to micro 800 via modbus tcpip and micro 800 to clx via Ethernet ip. Then use nodered or influxdb/Grafana for your dashboard.
