Cordwick

Cordwick is at pilot stage. Nothing here has been manufactured yet.

Development record / September 4, 2026

The current work, in plain view.

The product family is in first-article preparation. Corrected electrical and mechanical sources, build instructions and firmware form the current package. Physical prototypes, measured system performance and field qualification are the next work.

By product

What exists. What comes next.

Current work
Reviewed control-board and enclosure files, with separate base and display firmware.
Next evidence
Build the first article; verify fit, power, temperature behavior, relay calls and faults before equipment evaluation.
Current work
Equipment-side sensing hardware and firmware that acquires and logs locally.
Next evidence
Characterize the sensors and complete end-to-end communications and contractor event delivery.
Current work
A dedicated float or isolated-contact sensing arrangement using the Signal board. NOT A SHUTOFF.
Next evidence
Verify contact operation, wiring faults and placement while retaining the independent equipment safety switch.
Current work
A separate reservoir and pump prototype with attended water-bench firmware. NOT A SHUTOFF.
Next evidence
Measure the water path and interlocks. Establish calibration and materials suitability before broader dispensing work.

Reading the record

Different checks answer different questions.

  1. 01

    Source review

    Design checks inspect the circuit, component packages, PCB routing and CAD fit. They support fabrication of the prototype; they are not measurements from built hardware.

  2. 02

    Software verification

    Host checks and firmware builds exercise code and build configurations. Hardware behavior must still be verified on the assembled electronics.

  3. 03

    Physical evaluation

    First-power, thermal, fault and equipment tests require a built article. The results will determine what can progress to a controlled field evaluation.

Standards and testing

Bench, EMC, soak, field, and certification results are planned, not run until executed.

  • FCC Part 15B unintentional-radiator testing: planned, not engaged.
  • UL 60730-1 and UL 60730-2-9 NRTL listing: planned, not engaged.
  • ENERGY STAR smart thermostat certification: planned, not engaged.
  • Matter-over-Thread certification is roadmap-committed for Cordwick Ease — a scheduling commitment, not a certification claim.
  • No Matter, CSA, or works-with-Alexa/Google/Apple claim is made until certification is actually obtained.
  • The FCC U.S. Cyber Trust Mark is a preserved path, not a qualification claim.
