Diedrich Phidget roaster setup with Rostoc.

Rostoc has experimental support for selected Diedrich Phidget USB logging setups. Use this guide for Diedrich 4-Sensor, 6-Sensor, and 6-Sensor Pre-2018 machines, then validate the exact channel readings before relying on the setup for production records.

Direct Answer

Rostoc can be tested with Diedrich 4-Sensor, Diedrich 6-Sensor, and Diedrich 6-Sensor Pre-2018 entries that use Phidget USB hardware for read-only roast logging.

This is separate from Diedrich CR and DR entries that use Ethernet Modbus TCP. Choose the exact catalog entry and connection method instead of assuming every Diedrich machine uses the same setup.

  • Use Rostoc for experimental Diedrich Phidget USB roast data logging.
  • Confirm whether the machine is a 4-Sensor, 6-Sensor, or 6-Sensor Pre-2018 setup.
  • Do not use this page for Diedrich CR or DR Modbus TCP entries.
  • Validate bean temperature, environment temperature, and any extra probe channels before production use.

Covered Diedrich entries

The practical question is which Diedrich data path the machine exposes. A Phidget sensor setup, a Modbus TCP setup, and an older unsupported or custom setup should be treated as different support branches.

If you have an Artisan `.aset` file or screenshots from another logger, keep them as setup evidence. The imported settings still need to match the Rostoc catalog entry and the values seen on hardware.

Validation checklist

Treat the first run as a validation session. Rostoc should show plausible live values, preserve stream labels, and save the roast record with the right machine setup.

Do not assume control support from this page. Continue operating the roaster through the normal Diedrich controls and use Rostoc for logging and records.

  • Install the required Phidgets driver before testing.
  • Close other apps that may hold the Phidget USB device.
  • Add the exact Diedrich Phidget entry from the Rostoc catalog.
  • Compare each Rostoc channel against the roaster display or known probe order.
  • Save a short test batch and reopen it to confirm labels and chart routing.

Support boundaries

Contact support if the machine has a different Diedrich controller, the probe order is unclear, the Phidget device does not appear in the operating system, or the values do not match the roaster.

Start with the machine compatibility guide, the Diedrich catalog page, and the Phidget USB setup docs when checking the current public status.

FAQ

Does Rostoc support Diedrich Phidget roasters?

Rostoc has experimental support for selected Diedrich 4-Sensor, 6-Sensor, and 6-Sensor Pre-2018 entries that use Phidget USB hardware. Validate the exact machine before production use.

Is Diedrich Phidget support the same as Diedrich CR or DR support?

No. Diedrich Phidget entries use USB-connected sensor hardware. Diedrich CR and DR entries use a separate Modbus TCP path where listed in the catalog.

Can Rostoc control my Diedrich roaster?

Do not assume control support from this page. The public Diedrich Phidget guidance is for read-only roast data logging and saved records.

Can I import a Diedrich .aset file into Rostoc?

Yes. A `.aset` file can be useful setup evidence, but the resulting Rostoc setup still needs to match the exact catalog entry and hardware readings.
