timer watering
Friday, September 23, 2011, 06:00 PM
It rained all day today. I used the time for indoor activities. First step was to add an LCD to the Tower Timer. This was a lot of wires but it all worked on the first attempt. the LCD library was very useful. Had to do a few tweaks to my code but in short order I was able to display the current time and also the alarm time. There's some artifacts that need to be cleaned up but it's very functional. We watched the scheduled watering today at 2. One issue is the new alarm time is 2:01 instead of 2. The telephones arrived today. One of them has a bad LCD. I spent some time this afternoon wiring a new phone jack in the closet and then checking the house wiring. Some of the jacks are wired backward. I'll fix this. We had tuna sandwiches for dinner early then left at 7 for the Symphony. We thoroughly enjoyed the Bernstein concert with Jamie Bernstein, the composers daughter. The mezzo was from the Sarasota opera. The 5 singers were quite good, so was the symphony. our conductor was beautiful, she's nice eye candy. |
