Re: Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

Do you test this on ESP8266 or ESP32? ESP32 A reboot via the web interface should not clear the RTC, not even on ESP32. (at least not on the boards I tested here) It does, at least at the board I've tested. It's a DevKitC-clone from AliExpress, no peripherals connected, powered via USB. SW-version ...

Re: Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

You can store the intended state (or switch off time in seconds of the day) in a dummy task. Those will be recovered at boot from RTC. But that does make the rules rather complex. Is there a different behavior in case it's a reset triggered by user? I just created a dummy device and put a value via...

Re: Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

If I look at line 607ff of the file you've just shared it seems that the max. power you set is 19,5 dBm? I had another try with switching off "n" and had a look into the one ESP32 that's currently responding: It still shows an "n" connection on "info"-page, max-power-fl...

Re: Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

Power cycle may also help, as that clears cached information. I did that several times, also after changing the SSID again. Nothing brought it back or started AP-mode. After changing the antennas on the ESP32 I see a strange behavior: As written before, the node from my desk showed similar rssi (ap...

Re: Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

After deactivating "n" in the router, the ESP32 on my desk still connected and had no issues. The problematic one also connected as per status-page of my router, but was only there for few seconds. After again activating "n" in the router, there is no change, the problematic ESP3...

Re: Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

As expected, the ESP32 reappeared last night and behaves normal at the moment. The ESP8266 is still not there, so I'll have to try changing the SSID-names to get it connected. Regarding b/g/n: I understand that the EPS32 currently does not support to deactivate "n", but if I deactivate &qu...

Re: Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

Of course setting the 'weaker' AP to the SSID of the AP you cannot connect to will probably make the ESP available again. I guess this will work; I'll try tomorrow if it does not reappear during the night. But why does the node not switch to AP-mode as it does not get connected to the wifi? So mayb...

Re: Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

Did an experiment with my wifi today. I use a mesh with same SSID for router and extender. Yesterday I noticed that some of the nodes are connected to the device with weaker rssi which I could not change with /setup-page. So I changed the SSID for the extender earlier this evening to be able to manu...

Tried to update to latest official release some days ago but could not get WiFi connected then any more with the ESP32. ESP8266 had no issues after the update.

Re: Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

Currently I have no logic on the ESP but do it completely with FHEM. For the intended use of my ESP (watering) it is important that a relay is switched off properly. It does not matter a lot if it's switched off too early, but it should not be kept on much longer than planned. These relays are conne...

Max. duration of longpulse/PCFLongpulse

What is the maximum duration of the longpulse/PCFLongpulse command? As per commandref it's 999 seconds, but I have it currently running properly with 3600 seconds. (Did it before checking the commandref 8-) ) Now I'd like to switch on and off a filter pump which would need a runtime of 6h or 7h (up ...

I want to send a changed value from a pulse-counter instantly to FHEM. In the pulse-counter (or any generic dummy-device that gets updated via rules) I have to set the "interval" to a value >0. Only in this interval the actual value will be sent to FHEM independet of it's changed or not. I...

Re: Possible issue with ADS1115 plugin?

I will do so, but it would be surprisingly if that would really be a bug? The module would be in use by lots of other people I would expect? EDIT: Eventually I found the reason, there is no bug.

Yes that's clear, but I have only one 10k left, 2 more 5k5 and then only 3k3 or stronger. So I would need plenty of them in series, so I wait until next week and grab some really weak ones.

Re: Connecting a Rain Gauge

About making it harder to switch state. You can try to keep the signal high when not counting a pulse, so it will be connected to GND when a pulse must be counted. For example by using a relatively strong pull-up and let the switch draw it to GND. That's what I've already tried, I've had pullups do...

Re: Connecting a Rain Gauge

Judging the GPIO pins you use, you seem to be using an ESP32. Yes, as written above. In detail it's a DevKitC (or at least it's labelled as a DevKitC). The support for pulse counter on ESP32 is still on my todo list as the CPU itself does have hardware support for it which we don't use yet. This wi...

I looked through both datasheets and there is barely any difference between them. As enesbcs mentioned, maybe the ADS1015 is slower?
