BitScope

So what's a big #PiCluster look like? Like this! This is just one of five 150 node cluster modules we've built for @LosAlamosNatLab using humble @Raspberry_Pi and BitScope Blade goo.gl/EvPaK7

Interesting

@Qualcomm Problems arising in complex systems have simple, easy to understand, wrong solutions.

When you hear “The Internet of Things,” what comes to mind? 🤔

@alexellisuk @abigbrain We have commissioned or flat-pack pi clusters, 4, 8, 12, 24 and 48 nodes (not on the website). Drop us a line at sales@bitscope.com for a quote.

@abigbrain It's @BitScopeDesigns that you need. Let's see

@mwltash In the worx…

Nearly ready! BitScope Micro Cluster, 4 x Raspberry Pi 4B 8G, switch, power, mounting, cooling, control and diagnostics in a compact 1RU with connection via a single PoE network cable, now in pre-release testing (shown dogfooding with BitScope Mini).

@Merocle We feel your pain!

I've had that on my mind for a while

@S_Contini We still do not appear to have received any email in your name?

@S_Contini We do not appear to have received any email matching your name? Please try office@bitscope.com as it goes via a different system.

No point asking Google for support support.google.com is down too.

@saulcozens They will be but, not ready just yet.

@saulcozens Try this beta support.bitscope.com/X37HPRRV/bitsc…

@Gadgetoid @NotEnoughTECH You mean like this?

Midnight upload! If you are on the #Patreon list you can watch it now. Thank you to all who support me through there! patreon.com/posts/55386474

@noelgeorgi Not directly, but we have a USB dongle coming soon to connect externally. Email us at support@bitscope.com about calibration.

@BitScopeDesigns some queries regarding cluster blade: 1. is it possible to directly talk to the RS-485? 2. The measurement module outputs are way off, is there a way to calibrate them

@whucares Can’t begin to tell you how much trouble chip shortages are! But yes, “the month” is nearly done and this will be available before the month is up :)

@BitScopeDesigns @BitScopeDesigns has the month passed by now? 🤣

@timothylin Or we'll have these in about a month. Includes Pi4B 8G, Gbit switch and power supply. docs.bitscope.com/micro-cluster/

@timothylin You just need Cluster Blade not Blade Quattro (the former supersedes the latter). docs.bitscope.com/cluster-blade

@BitScopeDesigns I just heard about the Clusterblade. Seems like an amazing baseboard for my next RPI K8S project! How noisy are those little fans when in use? Would this be a basement-only setup or a living room-friendly one?

@ModelMakerVille Depends on chip supply which is limited for two key components in this product. We are planning for June release if we get supply as promised.

@ModelMakerVille Micro is up for replacement with a new model. There should be stock available though. We have Mini as an alternative too.

@ProfFalken @Raspberry_Pi Sure. Order online but “save order” at the last step. Email sales the invoice number with your request, they will update as a special order (discounted for the Blade) and notify you to complete your purchase.

@BitScopeDesigns @Raspberry_Pi Yes, but just the case bit, I've already got the quattro, and great as they are I don't need another!

Does anyone have a rack-mount case for the @BitScopeDesigns #Quattro so I can get my @Raspberry_Pi's in my rack? I only need to secure one of them into a rack and all the designs out there assume you want to pack 16 quattros into a 4U space, not one quattro into a 1U case :(

@whucares Just as soon as we have the new production stock. About a month.

@BitScopeDesigns When are you REALLY launching this?
