This post is just to see if there is any interest in a group buy for these two designs.
These will probably be offered as a PC board and pre-programmed processor only.

The first is my DMX4SSR, which is a 4 channel DMX controlled SSR that is designed to fit into the Keptel TA-200 enclosure.
You can read more about it here http://doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7497
At a minimum quantity of 25 boards the price would be about $4.00 each.

The second is my DMX16SSR, which is a 16 channel DMX controlled SSR that is designed to fit into the Keptel CG-1000 or CG-1500 enclosure.
You can read more about it here http://doityourselfchristmas.com/forums/showthread.php?t=7589
At a minimum quantity of 20 boards the price would be about $9.50 each.

Also, both designs are 115/230vac 50/60hz compatible.

Robert:

Did I miss the BOM in that thread? Someone asked what you thought a device would cost, but I don't think you ever provided specifics.

Thanks.

You are right, I just looked and it seems that I forgot to add the DMX4SSR BOM to the thread.

Until I get a BOM document ready, here's the Mouser web BOM for the DMX4SSR http://www.mouser.com/ProjectManager/ProjectDetail.aspx?AccessID=49ada8c3cb

And here's the Mouser web BOM for the DMX16SSR http://www.mouser.com/ProjectManager/ProjectDetail.aspx?AccessID=bdd311b6cd

I would Be very interested but my problem is my money is getting low. if u do this would it be possible that u would still have boards available after the first or maybe another group buy after the first of the year

I'll be interested in a DMX16SSR and a couple of of DMX4SSRs. Thanks,

I am definitely interested in the DMXSSR-16! Since I don't have any lighting hardware at the moment it sounds like a great place to start!

Robert,

I would be mainly interested in the DMX16SSR but would probably get a few of each of these.

I'll keep looking to see if a group buy gets started.

I'd take two or three of the DMX4 boards. They look handy to have around.

(yet another Don)

I've got a few of the DMX4 boards available.

I'll probably do a co-op of these designs (as well as some of my other designs) beginning of next year.

A group buy early next year would be great. It will give me some time to restore the Blinky-Flashy fund to a suitable level. :D

I'll be interested in couple of both but suggest to have the parts and case included in the coop.

I would be interested in a couple of the DMX4SSR for testing with the Helix. If possible I would like to get the microcontroller preprogrammed. I don't have an Atmel programmer yet nor is it in the budget at this time.

I'd be interested in at least 4 of the dmxssr16's maybe more depends on when the christmas fund gets replenished(about another 2 to 4 weeks for me)...What else you got that you are going to make available Robert ???

I will be doing co-ops of both of these designs soon.

Given the current issues with the Tiny2313 (Low availability due to high demand and the fact that it is being phased out in favor of the 2313A, which is not yet readily available), have you considered moving the 16-channel design to another CPU (such as perhaps a MegaXX8?) Might have enough I/O not to require the shift registers...

Edit: Just downloaded your firmware source and saw that you did it in straight ASM. I'M NOT WORTHY!!!

I just got 100 of the Attiny2313's for any co-op's I run, and I can get more if needed. When the 2313A is available, I'll use that part for my designs.
The reason for the shift registers was to make the design expandable up to 48 channels, which the current firmware is capable of doing by uncommenting a few lines and recompiling.

I'm actually much better at ASM programming than C ;)
