    Preventing ATMega from updating SD Card

    Thanks, Ralph. That's exactly what I was looking for. Here it is: https://github.com/CapnBry/HeaterMeter/wiki/Configuration-Autobackup

    Preventing ATMega from updating SD Card

    I know I've seen this but I've searched for everything and can't find out how to keep this from happening. How do I keep the ATMega from re-writing the SD card? Or may I should ask, now to I get the SD Card to over-write what's on the ATMega? I've locked myself out (forgot root password on...

    The Development Log

    Bryan, I'm certainly willing to help as well. I tend not to see my graphs as smooth as you guys on my large BGE. I wonder how much of that is that I'm using a temp probe versus a thermocouple. I have my thermocouple version built sans display and configuration so I'm not sure if that would...

    3D Printed Barrel Servo/Fan

    Tom, I'm all set up and running good! Thanks for the help. I'm not entirely sure why the fan is turning on under 10% because I have the fan set at min 10% and max 50% but it doesn't seem to be hurting anything so I'm not too concerned. The top vents are wide open and it's not running away so...

    3D Printed Barrel Servo/Fan

    Thanks, Bryan. I didn't realize that the manual settings changed the servo position as well as control the fan speed. That's good to know. I do use that setting sometimes just to get the fire started when I'm not planning to use the HM for a cook. I'll see if I have some time at lunch to...

    3D Printed Barrel Servo/Fan

    Guys, how is the best way to get the servo in a "home position" so that I can mount the control arm and know that it's going to be right? I'm all wired up but haven't plugged it in. I figured if I just plugged the fan/servo in with no pit probes that it would probably be closed w/ zero fan...

    I'm stuck with a new build

    Guys, I'm all set. I've been fiddling with things and tweaking my stuff and managed this today on a pork tenderloin for lunch. I also finished building my BGE stand this weekend so combined with my HM, the BGE is a really nice setup for cooking now. Thanks again for all the support and it...

    Operational temperature

    Melvin, electronics are typically rated in all different ranges but 0-70 Celsius is pretty typically for something like the rPi (which is the operating temp spec). You'll see "extended temp" of -40 to 85 Celsius for military applications (in the US) and they all have different storage...

    I'm stuck with a new build

    I had my first cook and it went ok. I did a pork butt for the Cowboy/Packers game and everyone was very pleased with the result. It was as good as I've ever had before and I have some ideas to tweak and good a smoother curve next time. Thanks again for all the help and my parts for a second...

    Huh, that worked. Very cool.

    Oh, and Ralph, the old SD card is toast. Can't delete the 9mb partition to get the card whole again.

    new build

    John, this worked! D-Link uses something called Virtual Server to do it rather than port forwarding. I mapped external 81 to internal 80 for the IP for the HM and now it's up and running! Thanks guys for all the help. I ordered a second one w/ Thermocouple support that looks like it's...

    new build

    Ralph, I'm guessing I can't change the port of the camera because it's closely coupled with the router--or to put it another way, the camera is only WiFi to the router if you have this router. Otherwise, it has to be wired for it to worth with other routers. I don't know why that is but I'd...

    new build

    Thanks, guys. I'll look into this more over the weekend. Steve, that reverse proxy machine is just a litany of questions from me I'm sure--hopefully I can get this working another way. Really, it's not a huge deal one way or the other I don't think as most of the time when I'm doing a long...

    Actually, I think I just found the answer.... Router Magic is probably not equal to port forwarding but rather virtual server w/ d-link. I'll play with it over the weekend: http://www.noip.com/support/knowledgebase/port-forwarding-on-the-d-link-di-614-router/#7 It's looking like it's exactly...

    new build

    Bryan, I'm not sure I understand. Maybe I should expand on what's going on from what I can see. The D-Link Router also talks to a D-Link Camera via WiFi. The Camera is my "baby monitor" as I couldn't see spending $400 on one that didn't do anything except show in real time what was going on...

    new build

    Ralph, I didn't have any luck with the SD card. There is a 9mb partition that I see under Windows that I can format out of the 1gig card. I'm guessing that I'd have to fire up Ubuntu to see all the partitions on the card and then see if I could delete them in Linux and re-format. I don't see...

    new build

    Well, I found part of the problem. I did have my IP address right (I'm not a total networking dummy) and when I was hitting it with PitDroid, nothing was happening. I tried the same IP from the office today and I'm logging into the child monitor camera. I'm assuming PitDroid didn't know what...

    new build

    That sounds easy, but there is no real documentation on how to make that work (or I can't find it at least). I found this: https://github.com/CapnBry/HeaterMeter/wiki/Network-ports So I did this: Then I found the IP address that I get from my ISP under Status and typed that into the PitDroid...

    Ralph, I haven't found the info for internet access. I have the smartphone app but thought I had to be connected to WiFi. I guess I have some more poking around to do. Tom, I agree. It feels wrong just yanking the power plug out to turn it off.
