I really really like that idea a lot and it isn't all that complicated to do on the backend. The issue comes still with confusion on the LCD and web page I feel. It would be easiest to just leave the web items in their current place but it seems like if the pit probe is unplugged suddenly it seems like nobody is driving the car. On the LCD it would be even more confusing if it said NO PIT PROBE but was still running.Instead of adding the ability to rearrange the probes would it be easier to set it up so if you select DISABLED for the Pit Probe then the first food probe would function as the pit probe?
That would also allow me to use my trashed TC board as thermistor pit + 2 meat unit, which would be just fine.
Yeah, maybe I'll try and move the 3rd food jack to be the pit jack. Ordering 1 more 2.5mm jack would be prohibitively expensive with shipping.
Yeah the LCD I was going to do, but the web UI will probably stay the same. It isn't as simple as just putting the number in the box, the graph would be wrong too and then you're looking at a ton of work just to make sure the value is properly copied everywhere and not just on the home page. It also means everything needs to know not just the status, but the configuration (off vs disabled is different) so it gets to be a whole big thing.Bryan, when the pit probe is disabled could you make the LCD and web interface Pit temp be the same as Food 1 temp (new pit probe), rather than saying "No Pit Probe"?
This feature is included in the latest AVR firmware snapshot. No LinkMeter/OpenWrt firmware changes are needed.
