Phidget TMP 1101_0 Conversion to Fahrenheit

Hello,

We're setting up an RTD and 4x thermocouple with a vint hub but the TC is set to default at Celsius. I know its a basic conversion but I'm unsure of how to code this Phidget to display (or convert) in Fahrenheit.

The Phidget control panel doesn't have an option to display the temperature in Fahrenheit (it's just meant to be a simple diagnostic tool to make sure the Phidget is working).

In our sample code or your own code, you can display in Fahrenheit by adding the conversion formula to the TemperatureChange event. If you're using third party roasting software such as Artisan or Rainfrog, they should have an option somewhere in the configuration menu that displays all temperatures in Fahrenheit.
