Door Monitor

I practiced Clarinet early before Nancy came over at 10. I continued testing and developing the garage door monitor. I found that recall using the MQTT-SPY drop down for publishing a topic doesn't send out the correct stuff. You have to paste or type the topic in. After a BLT lunch I mounted the device in the garage ceiling and right away discovered I needed a programming change. Open and Closed were reversed. I fixed it from my office and was pleasantly surprised that Over the Air programming let me reprogram the device. It works!!!
Unfortunately I worked on the Desktop Wx app for a while then switched to make a tweak to the garage door monitor and uploaded the wrong code into the garage door because the port was still set to wireless. There was no recovery because the OTA code was not in what i programmed using OTA. I had to take the device down, reprogram it with a cable, then put it back. i learned a big lesson about carelessly programming a device. Always check the port setting.
Next step is to get the Desktop Wx device built for my bedroom dresser.
Dinner was Greek salad which I made from the Cooking Light recipe. I love it but Libbie said it was not her favorite.
