Grill Open Logic #3

Open paintflinger opened 6 years ago

paintflinger commented 6 years ago

Trying to teach myself the programming language to potentially incorporate myself, but have you considered adding programming logic for when you open up the grill?

For example, if the Grill Temperature decreases at a rate greater than 2 degrees / second then the temperature controller will exit the control loop for a set period (e.g. 5 minutes) to allow the grill to achieve steady state again.

Maybe Grill Door open/close sensor needed. I will make some experiments.

Thank you for idea.
