Not sure what sort of sensors/inputs/outputs you need at your gate, but if you are considering running a 100ft CAT 5 cable to the gate, perhaps it would be an alternative to use this CAT 5 cable (8 core?) for running signals to and from the gate and keep the ESP device close to the router?

good to hear it works for you!! now maybe we can wait at least some more users to confirm as well in order to make sure it's at least not a coincidence :mrgreen: anyhow I'll be out 3 weeks for my summer vacation, bringing the family to Japan, so I will not be able to work on further development / b...

LisaM

Well, having a wired ETH cable (which I suppose is coming from your router or AP/switch) running from your home lan to somewhere in your garden is anyhow dangerous :) Having said that then I would explore either an RF gateway or even experiment with LoRa (something which is tempting me for a while ...

https://www.mysensors.org/build/ethernet_gateway You will need to merge the arduino sketches of relevant actuators/sensors with the ethernet gateway sketch.

LisaM

If you can bring wired ETH and not wifi I would install a WiFi router (AP) using the wired ETH cable. This will help you with easy configuration and if you need to run more than one ESP you can still do it via WiFi... ...and you can enjoy WiFi in your whole garden (I have a big garden as well and t...

you are sending the URL not correctly, it shoudl be: xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/control?cmd=hlwcalibrate,VVV,AAA,WWW Done, however there is no feedback like 'OK'. It made me unsure wheather the calibration worked or not. Checking the device, it seems like the calibration worked since the multipliers where upd...

LisaM

I'm extremely interested in adding wired ethernet to the ESP8266 soc. At some places in my garden, there is no wifi (i have a BIG garden) and i still need some sensors there (for the gate motor for example). I've found this: ethernet to esp wiring.png The annoying part is that it eats up most of the...

I don't have a clamp, but do have two multimeters. I'll put both of them to work to measure (V) and (I) at the same time... A 60W light bulb should do the trick being the load. surely you can, I do have a clamp and it's easier :) but you can do it with 2 multimeter of course. I tested with both 100...

LisaM

good to hear reboot issue is confirmed fixed!! about your points: 1) Even the ElectroDragon reads around 200/210 without calibration and default multipliers 2) You did not have controller setup for the AC Current sensor plugin so it's normal data are not sent out In order to calibrate I do as follo...

LisaM

PS: can you try to remote the HLW device, confirm it's not crashing, then add OLED or LCD plugin and confirm it crashes back? this will make 100% sure it's related to the above function... It's working fine until i send the HLW8012 form... Changing nothing, so exactly the same firmware, i can save ...

Code rewritten: if (PLUGIN_170_DEBUG) { String log = F("HLW8012: PLUGIN_WEBFORM_SAVE - SaveCustomTaskSettings size: "); log += sizeof(ghlwMultipliers); addLog(LOG_LEVEL_INFO, log); } SaveCustomTaskSettings(event->TaskIndex, (byte*)&ghlwMultipliers, sizeof(ghlwMultipliers)); if (PLUGIN_...

LisaM

It looks like something in here is horribly wrong: SaveCustomTaskSettings(event->TaskIndex, (byte*)&hlwMultipliers, sizeof(hlwMultipliers)); It causes the function to abort, i suspect that the reboot is due to the fact that you're saving a local function variable pointer in a global area...

Why all this trouble? Just buy the NodeMCU breadboard and you're set: https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/NodeMcu- ... 52838.html

The Sonoff TH16 and basic have 1MB flash size. According to the iTead POW schematic, the POW has an 25q80bvs1g flash chip which is 8Mb. So it should be 1MB flash size instead of 4MB, i'll rebuild with the proper build settings and then try again... UPDATE: Same problem, used these Arduino IDE settin...

LisaM

Ok I will test it with latest GIT this evening and let you know... As POW has a relay maybe you can't have any reading as the relay is probably cutting the Live before the HLW8012 chip. Did you try it? PS: Delay of 1 sec. can kill the ESPEasy performaces.... Please also check out my update: Update:...

LisaM

that's weird, as the first time the plugin init itself it shoudl be saving the calibration values if they are equal to zero. Can you try to send the command "HLWCalibrate" to calibrate manually and recalculate the multipliers? By the way the default multipliers must be: Power Mult: 103436...

How good and cheap the sonoff basic is, when first receiving it i was annoyed that it did not have an external light switch input possibility. I was used to this feature using zwave micro modules, who do have it all. So i set out to find a solution for this problem, and no it is not acceptable to no...

LisaM

Which firmware?
Which hardware setup?

If you want help, you need to tell a LOT more!!!

LisaM

Well to be openly honest I did a mistake during the test even myself, and swapped Live and Neutral... As a results at next power up of the module small sparks and 2 resistors on the module got burnt (all ok after I replaced them!). Nobody was killed and I can oly balme myslef that overlooked the co...

@LisaM SH1x is not really I2C: hardware interface yes, but protocol no. See https://cdn.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Sensors/Pressure/Sensirion_Humidity_SHT1x_Datasheet_V5.pdf See also https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php/SHT1X, although not clear what wire to be connected to what GPIO. In that ...

LisaM

NOTE: all HWL8012 modules and devices work with HIGH VOLTAGE and they do expose it to the user; make sure you connect LIVE and NEUTRAL correctly, as doing the other way around LIVE will be tied to chip GND and increasing the risks!!!

Looking good. GPIO 13/15 are exposed and can be use also. Just like tx/rx they're all used at bootup time, so it is a kind of tricky. Most likely will it work almost always (but might randomly not, driving you insane). 5V is also available at the AMS1117-3.3 for use with 5V sensors Ps. glue the sens...

hey there just an update for everyone in r148 in the advance settings you can disable serial then upon reboot you can use those as standard IO pins. remap was the wrong terminology my bad There is a risk in using gpio1/3 for sensors, at bootup the sensors might get confused by the serial output the...

LisaM

.....the 400vac you're mentioning is where it starts to get deadly, this is due to the fact that starting at 400vac your muscles contract and you no longer can free yourself. A global "starting from 400V = deadly" ignores that these things depends on a lot of circumstances. One example: S...

I'm an electrotechnical engineer (euro engineer in fact) and the 400vac you're mentioning is where it starts to get deadly, this is due to the fact that starting at 400vac your muscles contract and you no longer can free yourself. Regulations require that when working on 400v you're working in pairs...

LisaM

Yes, this is possible. It takes a little soldering to make the necessary connections. I wanted to not only control a relais using GPIO12, but also use the MH-Z19 for CO2 measurements and use the BME280 for temp/hum/pressure. So i needed 4 additional GPIO's, while the TH16 only provides one (GPIO14)....

LisaM

I don't get it, if you have an AP then why bother using serial?
If battery levels are to low to wake, then don't wake up: https://blog.squix.org/2016/05/esp8266- ... ensor.html
Modifying rules through serial sounds crazy to me, especially if you have an ap anyway...
