And the setup is the same, just declare the one wire bus pin and pass it to the dallas temin

[Reply #46 on:]

i Shamelessly ripped off a bit from that and adjusted my sketch... i have attached it as it is now.

i tried to make and OR thing:

 {
     if(Newtemp - Oldtemp > 5);
    {
     if(Newtemp1 - Oldtemp1 > 5)
      
      {
      Tempflag = 1;
      }

but i can see it will not work

i know && means AND.... but how do i make an OR ?

[Reply #47 on:]

== means equal to
&& means and
|means or

Id sugest to have a newtemp1 and newtemp2 and the same for old, and flag this way they operate independently
otherwise if one triggers
The other wont trigger

[Reply #48 on:]

Putting semicolons on your if statements isn't going to help

[Reply #49 on:]

== means equal to
&& means and
|means or

Typo? While that is true, logical or || is what is required here, not bitwise or |

[Reply #50 on:]

Yeah just noticed that typo now, was literally just gonna correct it

Excuse me for the intrusion,
you can find complete  sketch for the TiDiGino in google code http://code.google.com/p/tidigino/

hi.. i will return later... i'm freezing outside trying to figure out why car has so hard time starting.. must be due to -11 degree C right now and it dropping more later at night

[Reply #53 on:]

while i thaw a bit i will adjust the sketch....

i did get the sketch examples from google but they do not suit my needs

[Reply #54 on:]

i tried to adjust a bit but got some errors:


sketch_feb01b.cpp: In function 'void loop()':
sketch_feb01b:136: error: expected primary-expression before '||' token
sketch_feb01b:136: error: expected primary-expression before 'if'
sketch_feb01b:136: error: expected `;' before 'if'
sketch_feb01b:226: error: expected `}' at end of input
sketch_feb01b:226: error: expected `}' at end of input

new sketch attached

[Reply #55 on:]

i can get it to compile until i add: || if(Newtemp1 - Oldtemp1 > 5)

[Reply #56 on:]

Tha's not really surprising, because it is syntactically incorrect.
||if is not a recognized C construct.
Tell us what you want to do.

Post code, even.

[Reply #57 on:]

i did attach the sketch as post would grow to big for me to allow to post:



what i wanted was to make a if statement that in basic would look something like this:

if(Newtemp - Oldtemp > 5) OR if(Newtemp1 - Oldtemp1 > 5)

ie, if either one is true then trigger... it does not matter which one

[Reply #58 on:]

Your memory of basic has become rusty, however:

Code:

if(((Newtemp - Oldtemp) > 5) || ((Newtemp1 - Oldtemp1) > 5))
{
//do my stuff
}

likely too many parens, didn't want to look up the precedence

[Reply #59 on:]

Here's the below better written

Code:

if(newtemp - oldtemp > 5 || newtemp1 - oldtemp1 > 5){
//dosomething
}

sometimes the parenthesis is not needed : )
