Let's Control It

I'm really happy to read this. Thank you very much. I'm comfortable now of what I'm doing and to share it. I'm sure I've made some mistake stating that wifi is priority. Let me clarify, maybe you can show me a possible solution. I've made a thermocouple board using ESPEasy and CANBus. I dont use eth...

Hi, returning to the topic. Commands work now, and I have to clean the code before a PR. I will perform it in the next couple weeks. However, I want to hear from you about your perspective. Do you see ESPEasy for indutrial application? Is this more focused on domotics and hobbits? I should first cla...

There seem to be a few somewhat different versions of CAN bus, what version is supported here, 2.0, 2.0A, 2.0B, FD, XL? Especially the supported payload is different, from 8 to 2048 bytes, and that can be somewhat of a challenge for MCUs. Shouldn't the protocol version be part of the functional con...

DO NOT place your images on an external service Ok. Fixed in the original post. Your CAN bus Controller looks like what we call a Plugin that can be configured in a Task, Sorry, I'm a bit confused. Probably, my fault of not being clear. I do have a controller just to send data. In the other end, I ...

Hi! My friend and I are working with a CANBus controller to build a reliable network for sending and receiving data. I plan to share the development progress so far to get some feedback and suggestions. Also, this will help avoid messing up the code before making a pull request. The basic structure:...

thalesmaoa

Noted. I will not work with it. Thx

Hi there, despite of being an old topic. This one is the best reference I could find so far about RTOS. During some dev in espeasy code I've noticed an option called: Enable RTOS Multitasking. I've been working with CANBus (CAN) and one of their main advantages are reliability and error handling. I ...

Hi Ath. Yes! There is a custom definition already. Also, I haven't modify the already defined env, I've built a new one. 8-) I did edit the platformio_esp32_envs.ini [env:normal_ESP32_4M316k_CAN] extends = env:normal_ESP32_4M316k In fact, I've done this for two main reasons. The first one is better ...

thalesmaoa

It is working. However, we are now changing the implementation following MQTT Import to CAN Import.
I will share it soon.

thalesmaoa

Hi TD-er. No, I'm not. From your question I realized that I was forgetting the CUSTOM_H flag. Now everything works. Thanks a lot. Just will figure now how to see the log in pio.lol [env:normal_ESP32_4M316k_CAN] extends = env:normal_ESP32_4M316k build_flags = ${env:normal_ESP32_4M316k.build_flags} -D...

I'm doing something wrong now.

In Advanced setting I only have
Allow OTA without size-check

Enabling this should be enough to show this option?

thalesmaoa

Hi Ath, thank you for following. I can be wrong, but it seems that there is. If you follow the post and TD-er suggestion, it does try to upload using OTA feature. There is also PIO doc regarding it. https://docs.platformio.org/en/latest/platforms/espressif32.html#over-the-air-ota-update I'm currentl...

thalesmaoa

Sorry @TD-er! I'm trying to develop a new controller using CAN for ESP32. Thus, I'm using PlatformIO, in order to speed up test, I want to upload my code using OTA to ESPEasy directly from pio. I have enabled it in Custom.h file. Also, I followed your config from the last post. However, it states th...

Hi there, I try to follow it. However, I can't make it work. Any help on how to debug it?

thalesmaoa

Just realized that I need to create a controller.
Any tip where to start?

thalesmaoa

Are those the best references for plugin creation?

:o :shock: Thanks Ath! You gave me a lot to think of. Sorry, PME is the plugin ProMini Extender indeed. I have tons of other questions, but let me try to ask them one by one. Probably, the best solution will arise. From the back to the start, you have a great point regarding the ESP32. If I get it r...

thalesmaoa

Hi, not sure where I should start this topic. Here or github. I've being looking for ways to extend my IOs and found that PME is by far the best solution. However, there are some flaws. I need almost 48 IOs distributed in 4 different boards. The I2C is a perfect solution since I can wire those board...

thalesmaoa

Perfect! Thank you.

thalesmaoa

Right! Sorry. I have a extremely poor wifi connection. I've looked for OpenHab (MQTT plugin), but I couldn't find a way to enable QoS = 1. In order to guarantee a message delivery, I keep sending the value every 5s. Dumb workaround. :roll: Sometimes I get, others, don't. This is why I need ESPEasy s...

thalesmaoa

:o I see great improvement from the last time I've built a ESPEasy device. I can get a small glimpse of the usage. However, it is better to share my application. From those new features, perhaps there is a better way of performing it. I have a pump which I remotely turn on. But I want to turn it off...

thalesmaoa

That's the 'old' way of having a LoopTimerSet command Thanks, I will look into it. It might be helpful to add a SysInfo task with an Interval of 1 second to get quick updates. Let me see if I get it right. You mean that I need to add a device like this one: https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index....

Hi @Ath, appreciate your help. I need to connect 6 thermocouples (mostly SPI IC), 2 load cells (4-20mA with shunt and I2C ADC), 10 relays, and 5 digital input DI. I'm looking to replace an old industrial device that uses ethernet/ip and has a gateway with modules connected to it for thermocouples, D...

Hello everyone, I'm in need of some help to solve my problem with espeasy. I have a container with a poor WiFi connection, and unfortunately, I cannot improve it. However, I do have an Ethernet cable that I'm using to connect to espeasy. The issue is that I'm running out of pins to add more sensors ...

thalesmaoa

Solved!

It can only subscribe to QoS 0 or 1.

Thanks!

thalesmaoa

Awesome! I will take a look as well. Maybe I can help with something.

thalesmaoa

I already have support for LoRaWAN on TTN using the RN2483 module. This way you can send data to both MQTT and LoRaWAN. If you need to keep track of recorded data which may never get lost and in case of some network failure can be pulled manually (or scripted) after the network connectivity has bee...

thalesmaoa

I do agree. I just wanna avoid cables for connection. I have to install sensors in some places where it is difficult to put communication cables. Just to mention an example (https://www.terabee.com/shop/level-monitoring/terabee-lora-level-monitoring/) In an industrial plant, physical layers and thei...

thalesmaoa

Just to close this topic, I found the problem. Probably my own ignorance...

The retain flag was not working because QoS in the broker was set to 2. ESPEasy QoS is 0. When I put QoS 1 or 0 in the broker side, it does work.
I appreciate if anyone can explain if this behavior is normal or just a bug.

thalesmaoa

I've been using ESPEasy in my house for quite some time now. I want to make the next step and take it to the industrial level. I have some boards that work only for sensor purposes. I can replace my own code with ESPEasy. My only concern is about communication failure. Let's suppose the AP fails. Al...

thalesmaoa

Ok. Now it is almost clear that I got the idea correct. I did have the correct idea about MQTT and about the retain flag principle. I already have a MQTT server with a UPS, so it never turns off. The way I expect it to work: MQTT Broker send on state to the module. MQQT SERVER --> ESPeasy/gpio/12/1 ...

thalesmaoa

Perfect. Can you please point a way to debug retain? It is not working. Not sure if is my config.

I'm using Home Assistant (openHAB) MQTT
Options enabled:
- Send LWT to broker
- Will Retain

thalesmaoa

Yes. Wifi is one problem. Thank you. Do you have multiple access points with the same SSID? Are they configured in WiFi mesh? No. I have three SSID with different names. All of them are AP. Settings to check on the tools->Advanced page: - Have you tried to set the node to use 802.11 b/g only? (this ...

https://i.postimg.cc/CxCqMcXT/image.png I'm increasing the number of devices in my network. Two of them has poorly wifi connection. During boot, node 107 takes almost 10min to establish a connection. Afterwise, it operates smoothly. I thus have two problems to solve: 1) In case of power failures, 1...

Thanks

thalesmaoa

Hi there, I'm still looking for some help. thanks

thalesmaoa

I use NodeRed with Mosca Aedes server. For ESPEasy I just selected Home Assistant (openHAB) MQTT.

thalesmaoa

I'm using mqtt with gpio/17 topic to change my relay state.
I just follow some examples over the internet. However, I was wondering, and couldn't find an appropriate answer.

Why I can't set it by device name?
SW01/Value
I need to implement a Rule for it?

thalesmaoa

Thank you! I think that will fix my problem.

thalesmaoa

After your suggestions I found the problem, however I don't know how to fix it. As it seems, GPIO-0 toogles at boot time. Since I have this rule to check the button state, ESPEasy understand that is a press button event and turn the lights on. If I comment the rule, the light doesn't turn on. //on b...

thalesmaoa

lol... I will google it. https://i.postimg.cc/x1WvB3b5/Captura-de-tela-de-2020-12-07-20-54-39.png I guess a normal switch. About MQQT it only receive 1 or 0. Retain is set to false. https://i.postimg.cc/QMmMcXs7/Captura-de-tela-de-2020-12-07-20-59-09.png https://i.postimg.cc/FHZfVbV1/Captura-de-tela...

thalesmaoa

No, I don't. Simple switch button and the rules presented.

None of them send boot state.

I'm not sure what Domoticz MQTT helper is, but I only have openhab mqtt configured.

thalesmaoa

System#Boot event using a 20201022 I was afraid you would say that. Can you provide an example?
