The correct link to follow the status of the XMUS coop is now here:



Thank you,
Dave


Here is a picture of a built proto-board. Your board will be production quality and have solder mask and silk screening:


Thanks,

Dave,
Nice! Question: what do you recommend for those of us who have many SSR assemblies already built? Shall we wait for a separate Coop where these components can be connected to the controller via RJ45 jacks and cat-5 cable? Confused

Well if you have already built all your SSR box's and SSR boards and you want to keep them, you are going to want to wait for a co-op board that has RJ45 jacks on it. The expensive part of the SSR boards are the triacs, and the opto triacs. You might be able to recycle them (chop them off at the knee's, or unsolder them, but that would be hard work). Hopefully you used sockets for your opto-triacs? The two position molex screw down connectors should be really easy to un-solder, since there are only two poles...I think the RJ45 connector would be a throw away, with 8 pins it would be hard to get off, and I would recommend buying new resistors...

Thanks!
Dave

If there is enough interest in a co-op SSR (Triac) buy in parallel with this board I can do that. Just let me know.
Thanks,
Dave

The price is an approximate cost for each PCB.
You will also need 16 Triacs per PCB.

Right now I think we are at 20 total (see first email), so we are at "quantity pricing 20 of $25.50 each". So if you wanted 2 PCB's you would pay $51.
These prices are approximate, but very close to actual.

And don't forget, for $51, that includes paypal fees and shipping.

XMUS,

First, thank you for running with this project. I have been watching this Forum almost from day one. This has truly been an awesome collaboration with a few folks here. No one appeared to better than anyone else and you all worked extremely well with each other.

Thanks again!

Put me down for 4 PCBS, 0 TRIACS, 0 OPTOs.

I will be ordering my other parts on the SSR COOP on the Vixen site. I am also waiting for the 64 ch PCB Renard (no onboard SSRs). I have a lot of SSRs that I just have to use.

Thanks again you guys!!!!!!!1

Jeff
