This is a repository for my tutorial over on Hackster! This project is a wood / pellet stove temperature monitor that talks though also, to give you verbal updates periodically!

talking-high-temperature-sensor's Issues

Windows Help

Purchased the parts per your list for building the Talking-High-Temperature-Sensor. Everything looks correct except for the DFR0282 Beetle, the actual part does not have the connections shown on your schematic. Specifically, the SDA and SCL connnections are missing. Can you assist?

Voice recorder not responding to Beetle commands properly

I built the Talking wood /Pellet Stove High Temperature Sensor and would love this device if it would speak to me in English and properly announce the recorded voice files. I uploaded the code to the beetle (slightly modified to the temperatures applicable to my situation and changed the FILE000X designations to match the recorder messages. I recorded the messages directly onto the voice recorder DFR0745 and it created directory DF_REC in which my files FILE0000 through FILE0005 are stored. When in operation, the device announces a voice transmission at the proper temperatures, however, it is always the same message and in either Chineese or Japanese, something like "Hosie Moshie" Any advice on how to correct this would be appreciated.

Com Port Issue / Dim LCD

I was finally able to get the com port to come up, I had to add the com/lpt legacy device to Windows 11 in order to establish communications. So now I'm able to select COM4 in the Arduino IDE program to match the assigned port in windows. On to the next and hopefully last issue. When I sellect upload the program goes through the compile without issue, starts the upload and then returns the error message below. I have tried both Arduino LLC (www.arduino.cc) and Arduino Sri (www.arduino.org) manufacturers, both list the Arduino Leonardo model for the device to be added and Arduino IDE indicates that the Arduino Leonardo is connected on COM4

This is the windows error

I have also checked for driver updates and they have all been current.
Lastly, I noted in my research that the Arduino Leonardo is shown listed in "Software Devices" in windows with I assume its' own driver, I have no idea how to add this in or if it's required.
