The Raspberry Pi foundation has introduced a great update to the single board computer that many people know and love. The...

Just go into the options tab and deselect "Use liquid level sensors" in order to get back to a functioning bot until you figure out what went wrong.

Yes. Not a problem at all. You can find our RPI3 image here: https://partyrobotics.com/pages/docs

That's a nice idea. It should certainly be doable. Since we are commanding a specific volume of liquid to be dispensed, you can find that variable and store it and deduct it from your inventory. Also, we already have the hooks in place for removing drinks from the menu when ingredients run out. You would just need a separate screen to inform the system how much is in each bottle to start, or a reset to 1L button in your case. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to write this, but maybe you can and share it with the community!

Hi Michael, Take a look here: https://github.com/partyrobotics/bartend...-only-mode There should be a software only mode that doesn't require hardware.

If you power up your Pi independently from a USB source and your HDMI output doesn't light up a display, then your is Pi likely dead. A Pi 3 and the latest software should get you up and running again. Download the RPI3 image here: https://partyrobotics.com/pages/docs No need to unzip when you're done. It's already an .img file. While that's downloading, download and install an image writing program for your os. https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentatio...-images/ Point it to the .img file and put it on a microSD card that's at least 4GB. Pop it into your RPI and you should be good to go. Should be that easy.

Yes. The image is now up, here: http://partyrobotics.com/pages/docs

Bartendro pumps are not designed to be run continuously. They will over-heat. I wouldn't run the pump continuously for more than about 5min.

What you are describing would be very easy to implement if you had a bit of software know-how. You could program your own interface screen with all of those features. It is already very easy to hook up the router, RPI and 3 dispensers to say a tablet via WiFi as your touchscreen input. You can already do some of the things you are describing with our stock software, for example you can set the dispense size of a shot to be 60mL, then in the shots tab, you could simply press one button each time you wanted 60mL of a particular ingredient to be dispensed. If you want to adjust the volume every time, that would be a little more cumbersome, but it's certainly doable.

The part number is MPX5010DP.
