(41) Egg cooking timer

[Garth Wilson]

Rather than running the stopwatch which takes 20mA of battery current while it's running, why not set an alarm. I do this for timing pancakes, since I got tired of pancakes that were either not cooked in the middle or were kind of burned on the outside, or got too dry on the top before flipping them and they wouldn't cook nicely on the second side. I had PCAKEA and PCAKEB assigned to keys. (Now however we haven't eaten pancakes in years.)

Code:

01 LBL "PCAKEA"
02 "SIDE 1"
03 AVIEW
04 "FLIP"
05 .013
06 XEQ "ALM"
07 XEQ "OFF"
08 RTN
09 LBL "PCAKEB"
10 "SIDE 2"
11 AVIEW
12 "DONE"
13 .0315
14 XEQ "ALM"
15 XEQ "TOFF"
16 RTN

And elsewhere, "ALM" is:

Code:

01 LBL "ALM"
02 TIME
03 HMS+
04 0
05 0
06 0
07 R^
08 XYZALM
09 RTN

TOFF sets flag 11 and does some fast synthetic tones before executing OFF. The reason for flag 11 is that then if you turn it on intentionally (as opposed to an alarm turning it on), it starts from where it was in the program there and displays how long 'til the next alarm is due (if there is any pending), otherwise sees if there's anything in my DAYTMR file it's supposed to remind me of today, and if not, just display the time and date.
