You can delete any item in a list by swiping left on the item you want to delete.
Many lists, however, also support multiple deletion. In those lists, tap the Edit button to put the list into edit mode. Select each item in the list that you want to delete, then tap the red delete button in the bottom toolbar.
Sometimes, we might jump the gun when attempting to log crack times during a roast via the first and second crack buttons in the Roast Console or Analyzer.
To quickly clear this erroneous data, simply hold the First or Second crack button down and Roastmaster will ask which data you want to clear for that particular crack type.
Roastmaster provides the ability to change how curve values are graphed in the main Roast Console and Roast Analyzer.
For universal scales, such as temperature and humidity, navigate to Preferences > Max Graph Values, and enter the desired value for the appropriate scale.
For curves set to Raw scale, this is set on a Curve by Curve basis. In the Curve details screen, set the “Max Level” field to the appropriate value for that curve.
In the summer of 2017, Phidgets introduced a new driver library called Library 22 (Lib22). This replaced their legacy Library 21 (Lib21) software, and was rewritten from the ground up to provide support for their new VINT products, as well as greatly improve the reliability of wireless connections via a network host.
Unfortunately, Lib22 drivers are not backward-compatible with the Lib21 drivers used by earlier versions of Roastmaster. Roastmaster 11 (October 2017) requires Lib22 to be installed on your network host in order to connect to Phidgets.
Following are instructions for upgrading a Lib21 installation to Lib22. Detailed instructions for first-time installers can be found in Setting Up Phidgets.
Installation instructions are similar to MacOS, with one major difference: If you use Windows Firewall (most users), Phidgets will need a firewall exception rule in order to communicate with Roastmaster. Otherwise, Windows will block the network traffic at the port level. You can do one of two things (short of disabling Window firewall–NOT recommended):
Upgrading Lib22
Navigate to Probes in Roastmaster, and select each probe to view its details screen. Each probe should display a status of “Linked”. If not, your network host is not properly sending Phidget information across your WiFi network. Please visit Troubleshooting Phidgets for help resolving common issues, or instruction on how to get help.
Phidgets offer a versatile and scalable solution for monitoring and logging roast temperatures with Roastmaster’s Data Logging option. Roastmaster connects to one or more Phidget Temperature Sensors through your WiFi network via a network “host”.
Please see How Do Phidgets Work? to become acquainted with how a network host is used to communicate with Roastmaster. Or, see Phidgets for a list of supported Temperature Sensors and hardware.
If you are upgrading an existing Phidgets Lib21 installation on your network host to Lib22 for compatibility with Roastmaster 11, please see Upgrading to Phidgets Lib22 from Lib21.
Note: These instruction apply to Roastmaster 11 (October 20, 2017) which requires Phidgets Lib22 to be running on your host. If you are configuring Phidgets for an earlier version of Roastmaster for use with Lib21, please see Setting Up Phidgets Legacy Lib21.
Once you have procured the necessary parts, you need to configure your host with the Phidget Network Server software drivers that allow it to communicate with Roastmaster on your wireless network.
Note: Windows host users will often need to add firewall exception rules to allow Phidget Network Server traffic through the Windows firewall. See Troubleshooting Phidgets for more information on adding a firewall exception rule.
After configuring the network host, it’s time to define the probes you want to use in Roastmaster. This process is only performed once. After the probes are defined, they will be available for the life of the app on your device.
If you have not yet purchased the Data Logging option, you can purchase it by navigating to Probes, and tapping “Probe Store” in the bottom toolbar.
Mac or PC Host: Serial numbers of attached Phidgets can be found in the “Phidgets” tab of the “Phidget Control Panel” application.
SBC Host: Serial numbers of attached Phidgets can be found in the Phidgets > Status pane of the Administration Console.
After entering all required probe information according to your Temperature Sensor and probe type as listed above, Roastmaster should display a green “Linked” status, as well as the current temperature of the probe.
If you see “Unlinked” displayed in red, and have followed all of these steps, it’s very likely that a firewall somewhere on your network (either on the host or the router itself) is blocking the Network Server traffic, or there is another configuration problem preventing the host from sending information to Roastmaster.
Please visit Troubleshooting Phidgets for a list of common connection problems and possible solutions.
Once your probe definition has been created, and displays a linked status, all that’s left to do in the future is to link the probe to reading curves in roasts to report temperatures and log data.
In the roast console, you can select your curve by tapping the console graph. Roastmaster will display live temperature readings as they change on the probe. After you start the roast, Roastmaster will log these temperatures at the interval defined in the curve for the duration of the roast.
Have a look at some of our screencasts, particularly those in the “Roasting with Roastmaster” series, for instructions on how to leverage curves and profiles with Data Logging to create effortless workflows with vital Reference Curves for targeting, and Data Curves for logging new data.
