Eden Sensor Board prototype just arrived! Still missing a couple of components that are on the way.
Isn't it cute?

Plugging into Eden a cheap UEXT LCD and a 5V Relay module, we get a complete DIY Network Thermostat...

Hi Gene,

Do you sell the Eden PCB Board, with or without component ?
Or where can we get the PCB Board ?

Cheers
Dani

Hi dani,

I'm still waiting for "beta" boards to arrive from china. 
I will be giving 10 of them to users who want to help testing and improving the product (perhaps already assembled).
It will only cost the price of the shipping.
Any other user interested?

Cheers,
g.

Hi Gene,

I can make the assembly if necessery, so no problem.for testing.

Cheers
Dani

I'm interested, but I only have the one Raspberry Pi that's installed currently.  I want to add sprinkler controller capabilities before next summer, but I don't want to upset my wife by messing up the HG setup.   

If you don't find enough testers, I'd certainly be interested but I don't want to take away from someone that might be more responsive with testing.

I'd be very interested in testing this out as well. my HG install is currently running on an old tablet using the aeotec 2 stick but I plan on adding a secondary HG as a "slave" on an rpi. install it in the living room for IR / temperature stuff

[mvdarend]

If Eden also works with a BananaPi I'd be very interested in testing this too.

[jarrettv]

I'm also interested in Eden.

I'm running on beaglebone and I'm a C# expert.

People listed here will get Eden Sensor Board:

- dani
- bkenobi
- NicoVermeir
- mvdarend
- Automate

jarrettv: the board is not compatible with Beagle Bone.
mvdarend: the board works on BPi but currently IR transceiver driver is not available for BPi

I'll post a message here when I'll get boards ready for shipping (still waiting them to arrive from china).

Cheers.

I'm tempted to get a Banana Pi just for messing with HomeGenie, but my electronics background is from a rusty past so not sure I could be of any short term assistance with an Eden board.

Pick somebody else more involved with Adruino/BPi if you have lot of names to pick from, but if you have a spare toss my name in the hat.

[Gene]

Finally, after 1 month and a half, Eden Boards arrived.

Please e-mail your shipping address to info (at) homegenie (dot) it in order to receive it.

Cheers,

Hi, Gene

How can I get my hands on an Eden board?

Currently running R416 on Rapsberry PI, with Vision Z-Stick connected to Fibaro RGBW 441. Also busy testing a DHT-11 and DS18B20 temp sensors.

Hi Bitcraze,

from now on (till no more testing boards are left) to get Eden Board the following is required:

1) make a donation of at least $12 (PayPal donation link can be found here http://www.homegenie.it/docs/index.php)
2) in the donation message write "Donation for HomeGenie/Eden Sensor Board"

Cheers,
