I am attempting to control 20 solar lights to achieve a certain temperature profile in an automobile. The feedback is achieved by 32 thermocouples positioned on the vehicle (obviously not necessarily under a solar light, and they are dependent on each other)
I am wondering if anyone has tried something like this in the past. I figure if I read my temperature and pass these values to a sequence, I can perform a PID operation on a light for a certain amount of time (about 30 seconds per light), then on to the next via this sequence, and so on up to 20 lights. Is this a good idea or trouble?
I'm not sure if this needs more clarification, but help is definatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Will
