Having lost a lot of food and beverages when my previous garage refrigerator failed, I have been a little paranoid about it happening again. For the past few years I have been using a temperature monitor that integrates with a La Crosse weather station I bought. But this solution has been very limited and is mostly false positives and has an annual fee. I get alerted via email when my children go raiding the freezer for ice cream as an example. I recently bought an Arduino and decided to tackle something to alert me based on my criteria instead. Thus the Fridge Monitor was developed. I would assume others in the Community live in areas with warm summers or have young children so I thought I would share this project.

Fridge is model number and my problem is that I dont know what number the dial should be set at for the freezer compartment to be frozen and the fridge to be normal. At the moment freezer seems to be normal fridge is freezing everything. The ebony black Frigidaire FFHN2740P French door bottom-freezer refrigerator has a deep, frost-free freezer that delivers top-down storage. A basket at the top maximizes vertical space to provide quick access to the items you reach for most.

Arduino Code: Download the following Libraries and unzip into your Arduino/Library folder: • OneWire Library: • DallasTemperature Library: • Create a new sketch in your Arduino/Sketch folder with the following code: SmartThings IDE: • Connect your Arduino ThingShield to your hub. It will show up as a generic Arduino device type. • Create a new device type under My Device Types by clicking New SmartDevice and then choose From Code and paste in the following: • Then go to My Devices and edit your Arduino ThingShield and change the type to arduinoTempSensor and update it. • Create a new SmartApp under My SmartApps by clicking New SmartApp and then choose From Code and paste in the following code. Ok - no doubt, what you did is cool.

But you are doing it the hard way. You did not explain your alarm criteria but you probably go by high temp for delay time (like 10 minutes).

The fridge is already mostly dead when that happens, unless the thermostat stuck or the door’s open - still, that’s better than thawed-freezer-water-on-the-floor notification. Typically when a fridge actually fails, it’s gradual (and power consumption goes way up). My fridge is dying, but it still maintains temperature. The duty cycle/percentage of runtime is increasing, and it’s now at 85-90%. Five years ago, it ran about 33%. You may guess correctly that when it gets to 100% that the situation/current settings will be unsustainable. So you could monitor the KWH, divide it by the average power/KW, that gives you the hours of runtime, and compare that to the actual expired time to get the duty cycle.

Aeon plugs make this easy to do from 1200 miles away (FYI schedule them to turn on every day). You could also nicely log the runtime directly with a relay to your Arduino. Calculate the duty-cycle, alarm over 50% or something like that, then you have an early-warning of fridge trouble. Otherwise If you chart your temperature, then you can eyeball the runtime of cooling to heating. I’m trying to pick a new fridge now.

But not so bad as when the fridge is completely dead - mos’def.

Copy file rename excel vba. I want to copy an excel file (excel 2013) of the following way: When i open the nameofthefile, at first, a macro start automatically and work of this way: 1.- Explore the actual date of the computer 2.- If the actual computer date is > of the last save date of the nameofthefile then 2.1.- copy the file on the same directory 2.2.- rename the copied file to nameofthefile_dd_mm_yyyy (the actual date) 2.3.- end macro 3.- If the actual computer date is.
