//12/27/18 Added bluetooth support via Serial1
//12/27/18 Added calibration code from TeensyDigitalCalibration.ino
/*
Name: DigitalScaleAutoCal.ino
Created: 11/15/2018 4:49:12 PM
Author: FRANKWIN10\Frank
This program is a modification of the November 2016 circuits4you.com program for interfacing
with the HX711 Module coupled with a typical load cell. It's purpose is to automatically
calibrate the combination to accurately display weight in Kg.
The process is as follows:
Step1: User opts to calibrate by entering 'Y' at the prompt. Entering any other key (or
just letting the question time out) will skip the calibration process
Step2: User establishes 'tare' weight physical configuration with any non-measured weight
attached (in my case, the bucket used to hold measured amounts of water used for
weight calibration), and then presses 'T' to zero out the 'tare weight'
Step3: The user establishes a calibration weight condition (in my case, 1.8 liters of water)
and enters the weight value (in Kg). The program then calculates the scale factor
needed to calibrate the scale for the entered weight and then automatically
drops into measurement mode
Step5: The user enters 'q' to quit measurements.
*/
/*
I need to combine the calibration code from TeensyDigitalScaleCalibration.ino with this
program, so I can run the cal procedure by sending a character or two from my PC or phone.
No character, no calibration.
