Phidgets
Phidgets offers the most versatile and scalable solution for larger setups. A Phidgets setup is comprised of a Phidget Temperature Sensor and a network host. Your router then mediates the communication between Roastmaster and the host/sensor combination. Phidgets can communicate wirelessly with your WiFi router via an optional WiFi adapter, or be wired to your router via a standard ethernet cable.
Roastmaster supports the following Phidgets Temperature Sensors
PhidgetTemperatureSensor 4-Input (1048_0B)
- Supports 4 thermocouples: J, K, E or T type
- Connects directly to your host via USB
PhidgetTemperatureSensor 1-Input (1051_2):
