v2.4.0

This release adds:

  • Support for a DIY pyranometer (irradiance sensor)
  • Support for solid-state relays (SSRs)
  • Four PCB designs
  • Support for Vref (+5V) calibration
  • Support for recording notes about each run

There are also several fixes for minor bugs.

Documentation updates:

  • Moved Perma-Proto construction docs:

    • docs/IV_Swinger2/Perma_Proto_Construction/IV_Swinger2_BOM.xlsx
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/Perma_Proto_Construction/IV_Swinger2_Cell_Version_BOM.xlsx
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/Perma_Proto_Construction/IV_Swinger2_Step_by_Step.docx
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/Perma_Proto_Construction/IV_Swinger2_Step_by_Step_v1.02.pdf
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/Perma_Proto_Construction/IV_Swinger2_Wire_Template.pdf

    These docs are unchanged, but moved into their own folder to separate them from the docs for building using the new PCBs.

  • Added PCB construction docs:

    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/Off_PCB_Connections.pptx
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/Off_PCB_Connections_v1.0.pdf
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/IV_Swinger2_EMR_mod_PCB_Step_by_Step.docx
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/IV_Swinger2_EMR_mod_PCB_Step_by_Step_v1.00.pdf
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/IV_Swinger2_EMR_cell_PCB_Step_by_Step.docx
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/IV_Swinger2_EMR_cell_PCB_Step_by_Step_v1.00.pdf
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/IV_Swinger2_SSR_mod_PCB_Step_by_Step.docx
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/IV_Swinger2_SSR_mod_PCB_Step_by_Step_v1.00.pdf
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/IV_Swinger2_SSR_cell_PCB_Step_by_Step.docx
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/PCB_Construction/IV_Swinger2_SSR_cell_PCB_Step_by_Step_v1.00.pdf

    These are all new. The step-by-step docs will be mapped to four new Instructables (coming soon).

  • Updated the User Guide:

    • docs/IV_Swinger2/IV_Swinger2_User_Guide.docx
    • docs/IV_Swinger2/IV_Swinger2_User_Guide_v1.08.pdf

    The User Guide is updated to reflect the availabilty of the PCB designs and to describe the current state of the user interface.

  • NOTE: The IV_Swinger2_Sensors document has NOT yet been updated to describe how to build and use the optional pyranometer (irradiance sensor). That is coming soon, but didn't make it into this release.

Application enhancements:

  • Added support for pyranometer
  • Added support for Vref (+5V) calibration
  • Added support for recording notes about each run
  • Added detection of USB cable being unplugged

Arduino sketch enhancements:

  • Added support for pyranometer
  • Added support for solid-state relays (SSRs)

Bug fixes:

Requirements:

  • IV_Swinger2_v2.4.0_mac.dmg - Yosemite (10.10) or newer
  • IV_Swinger2_v2.4.0_win.msi - Windows 7 or newer
