PID settings not updating

[lekrom]

Hi Vito,

I am in the process of upgrading my brew kettle controller from the old Brewmaniac + BMESP8266 to the new BrewManiacEX. I have run into a few bugs. The PID menu settings do not update correctly when using the LCD / button (offline) interface. I changed the updateSetting() function to add some debugging data to the code as follows:

bool updateSetting(int addr,byte value) {

if SerialDebug == true

Serial.print("Updating setting: ");
Serial.print("addres: ");
Serial.print(addr);
Serial.print(" value: ");
Serial.print(value);
Serial.print("\n\r");

endif

return SpiEEPROM.write(addr,value);

}

In the serial monitor, while attempting to change any setting, I see the following: Updating setting: addres: 0 value: 64 Updating setting: addres: 0 value: 11 Updating setting: addres: 0 value: 33 Updating setting: addres: 0 value: 7 Updating setting: addres: 0 value: 17 Updating setting: addres: 0 value: 85 Updating setting: addres: 0 value: 35 Updating setting: addres: 0 value: 10 Updating setting: addres: 0 value: 50

The adress is always 0 regardless of the item I try to change. If I re-enter the PID setup menu, all values remain unchanged.

Also, If I use the Web interface to change the settings, all works correctly except for the kD parameter which also does not respond here.

Any thoughts?

I just did another test,

The "Unit parameter" and "Misc settings" menus does exactly the same as described above. The "set automation" menu appears to work correctly though.

I might have find an issue, but I don’t have access to my controller before next week. If you can build the code, add the following line at line2181@BrewManiac.cpp ‘_currentSettingAddress=_item.address;’

Thanx. I will give it a try and let you know.

The line is wrong. find the definition of getItemDetail(void) add the line at the end of the function

Fixed it, Thanks. You are a Rock star!
