Ok, it took me a couple of days to get up to speed.
I figured out how to make changes now, so I've added the bezel setpoint indicators (and removed the setpoint needle):
Note that for the picture, I hardcoded the temp values at 152F so they wouldn't all show 0 and I could show the color changes as the temp nears the setpoint (or for the example, the setpoint nears the temp
).
Note also that I changed the lower end temp to 60F since I would rarely be below that for brewing (if you have fermenters set up, you probably want the original value (20F)).
Variables allow for the degrees off from setpoint before a color change happens.
In the example:
temp within +/- 2 ºF from the setpoint and the setpoint indicator and the temp reading are in green
temp within +/- 5 ºF from the setpoint and the setpoint indicator and the temp reading are in orange (yellow was too hard to see)
temp > +/- 5 ºF from the setpoint and the setpoint indicator and the temp reading are in red
Variables allow for different colors:
Code: Select all
var greencolor = "green"
var orangecolor = "chocolate"
var redcolor = "red"
var greencolortext = "green"
var orangecolortext = "chocolate"
var redcolortext = "red"
You can set the *color colors to all the same if you don't want changing colors.
You can set *colortext colors to "black" is you don't want the temp reading to change colors.
Note that if there is no setpoint, the temp text is black.
If setpoint is out of range of the gauge, the setpoint text value is in red (I didn't get a pic of this condition).
Also, if the temp value is out of the range of the gauge, the temp needle turns red:
In the example above, the Mash Probe and Kettle Probe have setpoints (and since the temp is not near the setpoint, the color is red).
For the Test Probe, there is no setpoint, so the color is black.
For all 3, the temp is out of range, so the temp needle is red.
Thanks for looking. Comments are welcome.
