Re: question about heatpumpir control

Hi, I modified 3 years ago IR plugin to work with LG AC and it is still working properly for me. Try to compile espeasy with a modified plugin 035 that I will post it below. It is working with my model of LG AC. Example of the command to power on the AC unit in cool mode with 22 deg will be somethin...

Re: RPIEasy

Hi Enesbcs,
do you think that in rpieasy can be implemented an alternative plugin from Tasmota project called 'scripts' to the existing implemented plugin 'rules".
It looks that scripts can handle better some of complex tasks.
Thank you

Re: RPIEasy

Hi Enesbcs, looking at the plugins implemented in rpieasy I found one that looks very promising for me. It is about plugin P511 - Run OS command. My question is: with this command it is possible to run/stop any executable script even it is not a python3 script? Can be used in rules ? Please give me ...

Re: RPIEasy

Hi Enesbcs,
I am using RPIEasy for some time and it is a great piece of software. When do you think that will be possible for you to implement in RPIeasy ToniA infrared plugin for controlling air conditioning units(I think is HeatpumpIR plugin)?
Thank you

Re: Calculating kWh from Amps+Volts

Hi,
And sorry for delay in answering...
If you look at the datasheet of INA 219 you will see that in the registers it is available also power calculation not only current and voltage. In order to display power in Espeasy the plugin must be modified and this is quite simple...

Re: RPIEasy

Hi, I want to know more about the implementation of the rules in rpi-easy if is similar with espeasy which is very basic due to the memory limitation of the esp8266.

Re: RPIEasy

Hi, it is a very nice project and I run it for several days by now without problems. Regarding temperature sensor DS18B20 I think there is a bug in the software. I have 5 sensors connected on the same 1wire bus but I can connect and read temperature only on maximum two sensors. It is strange that al...

Re: RCWL-0516 Microwave Motion Sensor

The real operating frequency of the RCWL microwave sensor is about 3.1 Ghz and not 5.8Ghz so is close to wifi frequency. There is definitely interference between esp and the sensor. Checking the log in my esp when the sensor is very close I have a false alarm every time when esp is connecting to dom...

Re: RCWL-0516 Microwave Motion Sensor

Hi all, I checked this sensor and is working very well when is not close to the esp module. When is near it there is a high interference between the wifi emitted frequency of the esp module and the RCWL-0516 microwave frequency which is causing false triggering. In my opinion RCWL cannot be used rel...

Re: INA219 shunt resistor change to 0.01 ohm

Hi,
there is no current limit in using external shunt , in your case let say a standard 500A/75mv. Calibration procedure should be calculated according with sensor TI manual and this plugin modified to include and use this calibration.

Re: INA219 shunt resistor change to 0.01 ohm

Hi KKSU, I am glad to hear that is working. Just an advice for you when you will install the INA sensor with the external shunt. Wires to the external shunt to be as short as possible, avoid grounding loops and if you use the same voltage to supply the module through a DC buck converter use separate...
