Looking for someone interested in doing a paid hardware job in Palo Alto on short notice. Job Description: There is an old (1996) intercom system in our building. When someone presses my apartment number button at the gate, I get a "call" on a phone-like device at home and press a button to unlock the door strike downstairs. Below is a link to the user-guide of the device: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/3044/Aiphone-Video-Sentry- Pantilt-My-1cd.html?page=1#manual I need to modify (rig/hack) it in such a way, that "open" button is "pressed" automatically 3 seconds after incoming call. So that there is no need to have person pickup the call and push the button. The reason for that is that on certain days I need to let some people into the building without being present there. So ideally I'd like this rig to only work during certain windows (which I program manually) and not 24/7. I'll provide more detail on how it should operate.

Use glass door as “chalkboard”

by Captain Chesapeake

Hi all, I noticed that glass door by the vending machine. Is that for eventual installation there? I was thinking it could be used a board similar to Commons board in main room to track tasks with appropriate writing implement. The Cap’n

sudoroom 3D printer is working!

by Jake

I uploaded the correct firmware to the machine (it was running firmware for a machine with different physical attributes) and now it seems to print fine. I didn't have the time to properly prepare the bed though, so there was some non-adhesion, but the giant spool of filament is hooked up and it's ready to go. cura-lulzbot slicer is installed on the computer there, and "sudoroom white ABS" filament is defined and should work. Pronterface (red icon) is the program to use to drive the printer and run the gcode generated by cura. don't do the SD card thing, it won't work and is terrible. https://sudoroom.org/wiki/TAZ -jake On Thu, 1 Feb 2018, Paul Orozco wrote: > So I'm coming across something else that's weird.

Money money money

by Captain Chesapeake

Hi all, I still don’t have a clear picture of sudoroom finances, cash flow, or budget? Anybody interested in joining me down this rabbit hole? Where can I get a handle on this information? It would be nice to hear a report at every monthly meeting. Thanks, The Cap’n
