And how to get a value for rpm?
This means pulses per minute?

Thanks and best regards,

Duh, pulse delta/time delta = rpm...

As far as i know the ESP does a reboot when waking from deepsleep. If I remember this correct then any solution with a relay or transistor to switch an I²C sensor will fail. On startup the I²C init runs before the rules start. But it needs a rule to switch the relay or transistor so the I²C init ru...

Can MPU-6500 and MPU-9250 (GY-91) be used with ESPEasy in addition to the officially supported MPU-6050? It seems from the vendor page that MPU-6500 is a product replacing the MPU-6050. MPU-9250 is 9-axis, which adds a compass. The GY-91 module includes the BMP-280 pressure sensor. Buy it & try...

Of course i can switch it off via relay. Thanks for the transistor solution! How should parameters for espeasy should look like? How can i configure espeasy in order to activate a gpio for lets say 15 sec.or for uptime of esp... By the way, i am using that kind of battery shield, which works very w...

The REAL question here is, what's keeping you from:
- Buying the sensor from Ali
- Build a plugin for it
- Test the plugin
- Publish the plugin

It's always easy to ask others to do your work...

A Relay??? Doesn't that eat a LOT of precious power?

Code: Select all

Working reliable for some time now...

It's obviously not a radar dish with a focussed beam. That's why i had the idea to shield it with some aluminium foil.

But... doesn't the alu foil's echo interfere with the operation of it?

A VERY comprehensive test of several cheap radar sensors including this one: http://hackaday.com/2017/05/24/radar-se ... -the-test/

And detects everything, even through walls. Including cats, making a LOT of detection...
Not usable for my purposes.

Gate motor control:
- 1 Sensor to detect if the gate is open or not
- 1 Relay for opening the gate half (2 wings)
- 1 Relay for opening the gate full

No Wifi there, but ethernet was present...

Does the BMP show up on the i2c scan?
To which gpio's is the bmp's SDA/SCL connecten?
bmp setup details?

Very happy with it, running reliable:

I have set up an ESP unit with several sensors, of which one is a Senseair S8. Works great, but when I try to link it to an "Air quality" device in Domoticz, it does not feed any values. In Domoticz it stays on zero. I then defined a "userdefined" device, and linked the S8 to th...

I have the Mega working, it's exactly what i was looking for. I also order the Nano, but it turned out to be the Nano 168 (me sucker!).
Ordered the 328 so i can experiment with it. The fixed ethernet part is making me curious, both for the mega and nano. I'll test the Nano and put the result in here.

LisaM

did you consider that the 4ch Sonoff does not use a ESP-8266? It is an ESP8285, a slightly different processor. ESPEasy runs on the 4CH sonoff, but you have to compile a version for the other processor. Thanks for the notice but I have read that with build of version 2 now the firmware works with b...

LisaM

Definitely. These sensors are omnidirectional. I can make it work if i go to a wall made from ferroconcrete. Anyways it should be possible to shield the antenna if you cover two or three sides of a case with aluminium foil for example. But don't put the foil too near to the module, keep some centim...

I have a simple question for which I'm sure there must be a page in the Wiki or a post in the forum. For a new ESP sensor I am planning to include a DHT22 with a SenseAir S8. I think I will need to compile a special version, since I can't see the S8 in the dropdown of the precompiled version (148)....

It's far mor precise as PIR's

Did you try the new microwave radar (RCWL-0516) yet?

LisaM

Ok, i'll leave it in there. State is actually a 10-times per second check if the distance value has fallen below the threshold set in the form. Strangely enough the measured values in a 10-times per second loop are not broadcasted to the HA server, probably to not overload the HA server with message...

LisaM

Please let me know if anyone is using the STATE mode, state mode means that the distance is below the threshold set in the form earlier. When state mode is reached, distance below threshold, then a sensor switch event is send.

If nobody is using it, i can as well take it out...

I'm going to revamp PO13 to include a whole new set of distance sensors using this library: https://bitbucket.org/teckel12/arduino-new-ping/wiki/Home This should make maintaining the plugin a lot easier, since most functions are now part of the library.

With the ongoing development of ESP8266 MicroPython it's now in reach to rewrite ESPEasy in python. The ESP8266 hardware(with standard 8MB of flash memory on an ESP-01 module in Ali as latest record) is capable of supporting it although the minimum of 4MB should be required. Performance test should ...

I hope that the mega 2560 branch will ferther develop Don't get your hopes up, there is very little reason to spent a lot of time on this branch.

So i wonder what sense make two humidity sensors with 1m distance? It doesn't make sense at all.

That saves gpio's so you attach stuff ...
