Attention: this page is work in progress.
My motivation for "Simple LCD Thermometer with USB interface" is my server room. It is important to keep temperature and humidity in correct range. I am using automatic monitoring to be sure that everything is in "green" state. Previously I was using Conrad TFD 128 logger. It is good product but it have several design problems. To fulfill my needs I created my own device.

LCD Interface
Temperature sensor need at least two seconds to settle down. This make space to display reboot source. If it is necessary to wait, then it is possible to use this time to show why device was rebooted.
Startup screen stay for approximately 3 seconds and then device move to "Normal screen". If there is no activity for 60 seconds then device automatically move back to "Normal screen".
Blinking text indicate out of range condition (hot/cold, wet/dry).
