TEMPer USB Thermometer

Last updated: January 18, 2011

Hi everybody.

I bought a TEMPer USB thermometer from amazon.com after finding that someone had made a C# library to access it (No Feature Left behind blog). But that library did not work with my TEMPer device under Windows 7 x64! It was unable to detect the device. Apparently, I was not the only one with this problem. So, I did the only logical thing at this point.

I decompiled the software that came with the TEMPer (software version 10.6.0) and I made my own C# (.NET) library to run the TEMPer.

Here is an early version. I don't have time right now to really polish it or test it very well, but I will do so, and future updates will be found here.

TEMPerAPI 0.1.0 - In this download you will find a full Visual Studio 2010 solution. In order to use this code in other projects, you will need HidFTDll.dll from the official software (I included it in the zip. I hope they don't mind!) and TEMPer.cs. In the future, I will release a cleaner test solution, but for now, this works.

If you find this code useful, need help, or just want to say hi, please drop me a line using the email address found by following the contact link on the left (this website is mine and so is that email address). It would be nice to know that I am not wasting my time by publishing this.

For clarity, this is a picture of the device I am using:
