heatermeter

So I have completed a build of the Version 4.2.4 hardware, loaded up the Pi software and everything is running fine when connected to the 5V power through the PI, however when using the 12V power, I am having exactly the same issue as described in this thread...

I'm about to build my second linkmeter, and hate to spend $40 on a pi-B when I have a $5 pi-zero sitting here, unused. I see, however, that the GPIO pins on the zero differ from the Pi-B, so it's not as simple as plugging it in. It never is! Has anybody had any luck using the pi-zero, and...

Hi Guys, I'm a massive noob with this project and just completed a new build. Unfortunately I've been unable to connect to the web interface after disabling the LAN to try and get the Wireless interface to work. I get the following error: HTTP-Error 400: invalid header line and...

I am looking to get a couple HeaterMeter projects going after finding it during a search for an digital thermometer that has wifi acess. It looks awesome and I have a couple rpi B just sitting around. I think I have decided to go with the thermocouple board just so I have the best and not need...

What is the best way to use the Heatermeter to ramp the temperature down from 350ºF to 225ºF, without choking the fire? On this cook I had the pit start at 350ºF to get a good complete fire going; I want a lot of smoking coals. Then I want to bring the pit to 225ºF for the cook. The problem I...

Display UI Questions (fan bar) Can someone please tell me what #1-4 represent in the web page user interface? 1 = 2 = 3 = 4 = What does the entire fan bar range represent? Is there any significance if 2,3,4 reach the far right end?

Situation: Heatermeter pit probe reading = 225°F BGE pit thermometer reading = 165°F Approximately 60°F off. Configuration: Preset=TX-1001X-OP Resist=10000 Offset=0 I have the ThermoWorks TX-1003X-AP (thermistor). Questions: Is having a 60°F offset reasonable for the configuration? Should I do...

Just built the Heatermeter, and I'm testing the servo at the bench (not cooking). How do I test the servo is functioning properly? What is it expected? I can adjust the fan output successfully. The servo sorta makes a noise, and it might have moved a tiny bit once. It doesn't do anything...

I have just completed my heatermeter build (4.2.4 with thermocouple) for use in KCBS competition. You never know from competition to competition what kind of internet/wifi service you are going to have so I was wondering if any of you that compete have found a good way to setup your wifi. I am...

Problem: I'm having intermittent issues connecting the Heatermeter to my wireless router. I have no issues connecting via wired. Symptoms: Sometimes I get an IP address. Sometimes I lose an IP address (not confirmed, but the first problem is preventing me to verify). WiFi USB dongle flashes...

What is the amperage range for the power supply/adapter? The wiki says "12V 1A (or greater) power adapter". Is there a maximum amperage? Thanks in advance, Jake

I bought 3 4.2.4 non-thermocouple boards and built one. I'm now building a thermocouple version so I guess I'll offer my two spares for sale at my cost of $14 each, plus shipping.

Hi there, just wondering what people are using the Thermocouple for. * Pit * Food * Grill * All of the above? Just trying to work out where it fits in the picture. Thanks, mW

Hello All. I have a UDS and 2 Weber kettles (a one-touch, and a 3-vent). I have been using an iGrill to monitor cooker and meat temps. I like it, and I am ready to get something that will allow me to do overnight cooks, and not have to constantly pay attention to the cooker temperature. This...

So I had a few spare square decimeters on a PCB panel and decided to make myself a heatermeter. Unfortunately I did not have enough space to just use the vanilla heatermeter PCB, so I have designed my own stripped down version. It is similar to the vanilla heatermeter, but it is designed to...

Hey Everyone I figured I would start a thread, as there seems to be snippets of information floating around, but not one source as to how to set up port forwarding/dynamic IPs. First, I followed Brian's guide guide to setting up the network settings...

Is there a way you can use StokerLog with a Heatermeter ATC system?

First build trouble. It appears that everything is working properly with the exception of the fan output. The servo works great as well as all the probes. I initially thought there was a problem with pit probe connection because when I plugged a probe in the HM freaks out (see video). If I...

Going with the recommendation of Steve_M, I'm placing this post here in the Linkmeter sub-forum instead of the more general ATC forum... I have read up on dozens of homemade smoker controllers and the HM/rPi is the most impressive I've come across. The challenge is that I am overseas and it is...

Hello everyone. Hoping someone can help me resolve my network problem with my Heatermeter. I recently finished my first Heatermeter build. After initially having some issues getting the imaged SD card to load properly, I managed to get the device up and running. I was able to see the device...
