finally got things going. Went back to my early December update and verified I could go through Edge and configure using my ethernet cable. I went and downloaded the snapshot again this morning and tried it again. No way I could get into the interface using my ethernet cable using the Edge link...

cannot see my devices in MS Edge after I performed an update to the latest snapshot this morning. I see another line with another name there that was not there before. for security reasons I not going to say what it is. All I get now for my connections is error. In the past I have been able to...

Thanks Brian. I was hoping that could be done, but being able to customize the home screen using CSS and getting results that fits your personal style is a good thing.

I had that problem when I finished assembly. It worked on the bench, but after assembling into case, I started having strange display issues and not fan. What happened was when assembling I was not careful and Q1 got stretched and a lead broke and a couple shorted. Check Q1. How I fixed this was...

Having fun creating my own home screen. The one change I see that I definitely want to add to my home screen is the change with the name on the pid screen. I see many out there changed the name from "Output %" to "Blower Speed %". Can this be done in the user CSS tool? If so can someone provide...

From what is see on the last cook you did not have enough integral dialed in and the control just went crazy Try the following P=2.5 I=.0035 D= 6 as for fans you might try setting the %min to maybe 10 and play a little with the %max. Maybe lower it to 40 looking at your first post and graph, I...

I have setup on my test bench and I like what I see. It is interesting how the control works. I am setting up the Adapt-a-damper first. the fan parameters I was curious about were the "on above", "%min", and "%max". As with my tune of the blower style versus the microdamper, in order to get...

this is an interesting change. looking forward to trying it out today since the temp is out of the 100`s and back down to the 80`s. My main question is, what damper did you use for your testing. Since I have been trying out both a blower type and the cfm type I have just resealed my ceramic...

another thing that can cause intermittent issues with the servo is if you tightened the screw holding the damper wheel to the servo body. if you did and tightened it too much, then the damper disk could bind and not move smoothly unless you move it by hand, then the disk will move the the...

RK, here are my setting for a tightly sealed ceramic grill. I currently use an Adapt A Damper. These should work with some fine tuning for the RD3. The Micro-Damper will not control well on my grill with these settings. I have to make changes mainly to the fan side of things since a blower is a...

Bryan, thanks for your reply on my post. I totally understand your thoughts on my request and will give your suggestion a try. Looks like the solution will work for me. The only reason for me to want to store multiple configurations would be if I changed a component of my PID control loop...

Now that I have lots of time to piddle with my heatermeter, I went back to my original damper I purchased when I got into the project and fixed the issues I had with it and now started to play with it again. I now have an Adapt a Damper and a Micro Damper to play with. Now that I have used them...

Use the proper extension cable for thermocouples always use an extension cable when using thermocouple that match your current probe. thermocouples are 2 dissimilar metals that when the ends are fused together will produce a voltage that has a traceable curve over a range of use. All couples...

Interesting. I had the same issue on my Cook yesterday. I have not had this in the past. I use Thermoworks thermocouple and my connection at the plug are just fine. The only thing I did was update to the .hex file dated 4/09 just the evening prior to my cook. The drop was way to fast to be a...

To add to Will`s excellent information post, you always want to use the smallest tip on your iron. Match the tip to the pad. You always apply heat to the pad/land, not to the wire or components lead. Apply heat to the pad for about long enough so the pad will melt the solder and make the...

Great clarification on how to tune a loop. As your example shows it takes time and the "I" value calculations does not always calculate out as an effective value to plug in. One thing i might add is where you figure out the period oscillation, the next big player that will come to haunt you is...

alright, one last time. I like graphs with scaling. I like the graphs to have the ability to open a setting in another page, configuration page and edit the point without leaving my "Home" page. I like separate, not overlaying graphs to help tune and troubleshoot processes. I do find at times...

That is kind of what I am thinking. I would do the graph differently though. Only 3 graphs and made longer to get better resolution. Each graph has a scale on left side 0-100 like the left side of cook graph. for damper you would make colored point on the scale at your 4 setting point on the...

let me try again Brian. I will use just the damper this time. What I am suggesting is to use either empty space next to the cook graph to create some bar graphs that independently show the horizontal graph data that's is always live above the current cook graph. With the damper for example, a...

So Brian I would like to propose a shift away from the icon. One of he ongoing issues I see with the heatermeter is how to tune. What I propose is to improve the graph screen and introduce some data that is going to help the user and it follows the idea of the icon for damper and fan in a...
