Paul,

Nice work getting this motor working!

Does anyone know of a display system (some sort of digital dashboard) that could use this data flow?

On a semi-related note- I have this pump project that I'm trying to keep as low-tech as possible. Paul, Thingstodo - could this work open - loop > no feedback. The pump motor is an induction 3 phase AC 240 V machine that right now is just plugged into the line.

Would Paul's open loop control work? What (minimum) things should be added to make this pump more usable - right now all the owners want is a simple knob - twist control, but it seems some sort of water pressure feedback would be be awesome.
