MAX31855

Post by LVarg026 »

Hello,

I was able to get the Thermocouple Amplifier MAX31855 to get working with the "Standard LCD 20x4 + extras" and the Arduino Uno. I have to two questions that I seem I can not find in the forums.

1) How do I change the internal temp to display in Fahrenheit?
2) In the LCD 20X4, the degree symbol " °F " does not show properly, how can I correct this?

Thank you in advance for the help.

Replace the call to readCelcius() with a call to readFarenheit()
2) In the LCD 20X4, the degree symbol " °F " does not show properly, how can I correct this?
Have you defined the ° character as in this tutorial? https://learn.adafruit.com/character-lc ... ar-command
