The Steinhart-Hart equation was changed in code long ago to the
B-parameter equation. Rename references to it and the interface
accordingly. The `s-h` command is now `b-p`.
The reason the name "B-Parameter" equation was chosen over
"Beta-Parameter" was due to its easier searchability.
Current limit pins are driven by PWM inputs to the MAX1968 driver, but
this is an implementation detail, and should not be exposed in the form
of the command interface. Rename "pwm" to "output" in all instances.
See #62 (comment).
Putting the maximum in PwmSummary has little use - the maximum never
changes throughout the runtime of the firmware and can be replaced by
documentation elsewhere.
As the report mode command breaks the send-receive architecture model of
the command interface, and is deemed an anti-feature, making clients
difficult to write, remove it from the firmware entirely.
Rewrite of PID according to https://hackmd.io/IACbwcOTSt6Adj3_F9bKuw PID implementation.
To migrate:
- TEC+/- pin polarity has to be reversed.
- Some saved settings might be wiped upon flashing of new firmware, back up settings before upgrade
- Min / Max integral parameters no longer exist
- kp, ki, kd will likely need to be retuned
The software has been tested on hardware with good temperature control stability.
