My router rebooted during a cook and I couldn't reconnect to my HeaterMeter afterward. I got a Luci page with a link that didn't go anywhere. Had to reboot my Heatermeter to get it to come back. I lost my history for the cook, which isn't a big deal. Just curious if there's a way I could have...
Cool. I just went through and did exactly this. Seems to be fine. I get some clicks some times but it seems to settle in after a short time. Not sure if that's a concern or just an annoyance.
Thanks.
I've done the manual control and it looks like it's fine. I adjusted two of the values to ensure that the servo is closed completely at 0% and opened fully at 100%.
I'll leave the values alone for now and see how the first cook goes. Expect more questions!
I'm getting ready for my first cook with my Heatermeter and adapt-a-damper. Testing it on the floor of my office, it looks like it's working. What should I be looking for in real world use? I see people talking about PID tuning, but truthfully that section of the wiki is a bit over my head. I...
Hell yeah! I remembered I had a probe from an iGrill mini my wife gave me. Plugged it in and I get a reading from my pit probe! All the probes work and now I'll have two working food probes. One probably not as good as the other, but good enough for now. Thanks for the tip on the dumb Maverick...
I didn't get the thermocouple option. I may regret it, but I gathered that for a smoker I won't need it. We'll see. I can always add it on later. I installed the resistors as the wiki mentioned for not having the thermocouple so I should be good there.
I don't have the thermoworks probes yet...
I bought Thermoworks probes (one pit and one food) in case my Mavericks were too old for the HM. They work in the Maverick so seems like they'd work here, but I don't know. Good to start with fresh stuff I guess. I'm open to any other thoughts or help.
Got everything (except for the damper) put together last night. Loaded the HM image onto my SD card, and nothing. The RPi wouldn't boot. Tried a few times, thought it might be an SD Card issue, but base Raspbian booted. I finally got the development snapshot to load, so I guess I'm good there...
I was referring to the fan on my original post.
The RJ45 keystone is in the Bottom Case Box, right? Not part of the threaded parts. Doesn't matter. I'll get it in one way or another.
If you mean the ethernet jack, I haven't quite gotten that far. I need to put the wires in because it looks like it installed with the wires facing the case, not open to the top.
