I used the same approach when programming my fridge. If the compressor was required because the temperature in the topmost shelf was too high, the tones would play in rising order. If it was due to the bottom shelf, then the tones would play in descending order.
I ended up disabling the feature because it was always the bottom shelf.
- slig 2y agoIs your fridge on GH? Mine is outdated and I'd like to download a newer one.
- Rygian 2y agoShort answer: no. Was forced to move to a new place. Had to buy a secondhand fridge. Thermostat was out of whack. Instead of calling a technician, I decided to have fun, replaced the thermostat by an Arduino with a couple of thermometers (top shelf, bottom shelf), a relay driving a contactor, and a beeper. Firmware stayed in "beta version", never thought about publishing it. When I moved again to a new place I ditched the frankenfridge.

- AyyEye 2y agoMost of my longest lived and lowest maintenance things were frankenprojects and brazen hacks that somehow lasted years without me having to make any changes or fix anything.
