As title suggests - first try.
No "how to do it" information yet found.
Instinct - unless guided, I am going to have to leave this until / if knowledge rises to a good enough level that can see what needs doing.
What done today:
So this is plugging in the thermocouple-amplifier breakout-board with I2C connections into the one-to-one matching I2C pins on the Arduino.
Checking with voltmeter with prod contacts - breakout-board connections:
Could only find "adafruit" code "mcp9600_test.ino" and although have programmed in "C", cannot "read" this code yet.
Stopped on
Serial.println("Sensor not found. Check wiring!");
/* Initialise the driver with I2C_ADDRESS and the default I2C bus. */
