This project is designed to display the current temperature in the room, and will also go back and forth between Farenheight and Celsius. In addition, it will display a desired temperature which is adjustable with the use of a potentiometer. If the desired temperature is below the room temperature, an led will turn on.

Step 1: Wiring the Hardware

To wire your arduino properly, copy the picture above

Step 2: Typing the Code

Input the following code into your Arduino program:

#include
#include
int tempPin = A0;
int led = 13;
float temp;
float settemp;
int swtu = 7;
int swtd = 6;
LiquidCrystal lcd(12, 11, 5, 4, 3, 2);
void setup() {
pinMode (led, 1);
Serial.begin (9600);
lcd.begin(16, 2);
lcd.setCursor(0, 0);
lcd.print("hello, world!");
lcd.clear();
EEPROM.read (1);
}

void loop() {
int tvalue = analogRead(tempPin);
float temp = (tvalue / 6.388888888889);
lcd.setCursor (0, 0);
lcd.print (temp);
lcd.print ('F');
Serial.println (temp);
settemp = EEPROM.read(1);
delay (250);
if
(digitalRead(swtu) == 1 )
{
settemp ++
;
}
else {
}
if
(digitalRead (swtd) == 1)
{
(settemp --);
}
else {
}
if (temp > settemp)
{
digitalWrite (led, 1);
}
else
{
digitalWrite (led, 0);
}
lcd.setCursor (0, 1); 4
lcd.print ("Set To ");
lcd.print (settemp);
lcd.print ('F');
Serial.println(settemp);
EEPROM.write (1, settemp);
delay (250);
}
