I don't think so, what is it you want to send?

Please check the voltage going to the DHT-11, and check the data sheet for it as well. It requires a pullup resistor and recommends a capacitor. I have a nodeMCU(v1) and DHT-22 with a 2A wallwart which puts out 5.5V and I have a big capacitor on the 3.3V rail. Works better, but I think the AMS1117 a...

Check the subscribe template in tools/advanced. I have no idea how Pidome work, but you usually want the subscribe to be unique, so you can publish to that unit not all units, but for testing I guess it doesn't matter. Also make sure when you plubish it is exactly the same as what you subscribe to, ...

Here we go...about compiling and uploading the Firmware from the Github... 1.

If it was showing up, you would notice it seems to appear at least every 10 log entries or so as it is always showing in the log. As soon an there are enough entries for it to scroll off the screen it appears again at the bottom. Completely different numbers today, It does not matter if the Soul moi...

Hi Costo, This is not the number that leads the events, this is a number which appears frequently, and does not change. For 1 unit it is 1952998401 and for another unit it is 1952998400. I would think it has something to do with the IP address, The IP for the unit with 1952998400 is 192.168.60.101 a...

Drum

Assuming your BMP280 is not next to something a little warmer and nothing on the module itself is generating heat (for example 5V feeding a 3.3v module) they are not completely accurate. Check the data sheets,absolute accuracy for temp can be off by as much as +-.5 at 25C and pressure as much as 1.7...

I have a third unit which is exactly the same, same version and sensors, but no odd numbers.

Drum

Is there a reason these numbers come up in the log?

From 2 different units, same number always comes up in the same unit.

1952998401

1952998400

Some kind of error?

Thanks,

I am having some odd issues with this one. I am still trying different things, but if I set pin 5 to default the first reading for soil moisture is always "2" and if I set pin 5 to Output High, it is always 859 or close. Doesn't matter if wet or dry. And the dht-11 doesn't seem to like to ...

The only reasonable one I have seen is on on Tindie https://www.tindie.com/products/miceuz/i2c-soil-moisture-sensor/ But also have a look at https://www.tindie.com/products/AprilBrother/esp-soil-moisture-sensor/?pt=ac_prod_search Both are capacitive sensors. I have some of the second one, they work,...

I don't know if there is a complete list. There are some on the wiki for the displays, and I think any task name from a plugin could be used. Check the http://www.esp8266.nu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=55 thread, I am sure some will be there. I think that is a must read in any case. If there is so...

Drum

I believe the sensor you are looking at would not work on an ESP-01. There is no ADC pin exposed on the ESP-01 from what I can find, and from what I remember looking into this sensor, it uses resistance across the 2 sides and the 3 pins are Ground, Vin and Vout (or something like it) and that would ...

Drum

You can compile the latest version if you like, it is pretty easy. Instructions are in the wiki and here: http://www.esp8266.nu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1930

Drum

Is this something to be concerned about with respect to http://www.esp8266.nu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1988 ?

Drum

Which version of ESPEasy are you using and which browsers are giving you problems. Also, and very important can you check to see if it is restarting. Maybe post a picture and schematic? I have several units running for 6 months with DHT-22 and other sensors and have not seen this problem except when...

Drum

Perhaps it is something to do with the difference between Safari and Chrome and how they function... To test if it is a size problem you could probably compile a version without the plugins you do not need. No reason to have the plugins for OLED and LCD if you do not have a display. I don't know how...

I think this should explain it.

I did a quick search on IRSEND and it appears it may need a brand / protocol. ('http://192.168.4.138/control?cmd=IRSEND,NEC,4bb620df,32') It may have changed, but read the whole thread, there are also issues with power output from the ESP. It might also be better to post questions on this topic in t...

Drum

I managed to get it working, but there is some variability in the readings, dry is 850 +- 10, and wet is about 750 +- 10. This is probably why the original code takes an average, but I haven't been able to get that to work yet. Until I figure that out I can always have Node-Red average a few values....

Drum

I am not sure what release you are using, but all of mine only have that address when no AP is assigned, or if they are unable to connect. 192.168.4.1 is the default setup address. Connect to the AP vis WiFi then enter that address. Try reading the tutorials.. Just past the domoticz part on this one...

I would check back with the thread on the plugin, it is in the playground so it my have issues.
No idea what the status is, but that would be the place to ask about it.

Drum

Also take a look at this thread,

I think the OLED scrolling Display plugin has a wifi signal graph. No idea how it is done but might be useful.

Drum

I would think so, but as there is only 1 subscribe template, I think most people publish a message for the unit. Although there is a plugin in the playground which may work as well. There are some threads on displaying MQTT messages. Globalsync if the sender is also an esp. I need to look more on th...

Drum

Thanks, that explains it pretty clearly. I will have to do some reading there. I was looking at other plugins today and I think the dust sensor plugin might be a good place to start. I only had time to do some quick changes, which did not work, but I will also check the pwm plugin to see how the cod...

Drum

Yes see the wiki, also read the recent thread on compiling advice. I don't know if the tutorial is up to date. There are also a lot of threads on various problems related to compiling, but it generally works very well. Subscribe to this thread and look for changes to the requirements, they are also ...

Drum

Not yet that I know of! It may be possible if you hard code them yourself, but then I think you would also have to have some way to tell it to try each one for a specified amount of time... At home I have most of the APs syncronizeed with the same SSID and password. When I take ESPs to work to test ...

I found something pretty close to what have been trying to make, on Tindie for less than I can build it for. AN ESP Soil Moisture sensor based on the Chirp, but not i2c and with an ESP-12.

Check the tutorial on rules, http://www.esp8266.nu/index.php/Tutorial_Rules
I think you need an "endon" for every "on"

Other than that I don't see any reason it shouldn't work, but I am not an expert on this...

Option to rather than browse for file to upload, have a preset location and file name on the controller. There would probably need to be a request / response message especailly when using deep sleep. For example, Node-red can monitor a folder for file changes. When it sees a change and receives a ch...

Drum

when you are using deep sleep the uptime function does not work. Perhaps a counter which shows how many times the unit has slept since the last hard boot/watchdog reset is possible? or some other indication of how long it has been running. I think this would make it easier to identify problems with ...

Hi guys, maybe I've overread it but is it possible to let espeasy drop the current IP/MAC and maybe the configured device number to mqtt? As the number of espeasy nodes rises it would be nice to know which device id's are already taken and which sensor has which IP. As I run the esp's in deep-sleep...

Drum

I looked at a couple and they are I2C and 3.3 - 5v compatible. I think it is possible. I did not find any arduino libraries, but they could be there somewhere. It appears they have different default I2C addresses so I don't see any reason it couldn't work, given enough effort to develop the plugins.

Drum

Okay, there is at least 1 thread in the form pretty recently on this topic. I don't remember exactly. I checked the device screen for switches, and there is a "send boot state" tick box. Which version are you using? The switch functionality has been pretty active recently so it would be go...

Drum

Have a look at the bottom of the main page on the ESP. There is a boot cause field. I don't think it will tell you what you want to know, as I don't think the system has the ability to diagnose what part of the problem. It will give you "Cold Boot" if you unplug and plug in again, "Ma...

Drum

So you are looking to retain the GPIO setting based on the last MQTT msg?
For example, a switch setting, if the switch is on or off?

Drum

I haven't seen this one before. I don't know how much better it is. From Aliexpress.. By the way, the specs are available (in Chinese) from Ai-thinker (Google ESP-12S) and it is listed at the FCC so I think it is safe to say it is real. Pins appear to be the same as the other ESP-12 modules. ESP8266...

Look at http://www.esp8266.nu/index.php/ESPEasy about halfway down, hardware settings. Is this what you are looking for? High = 1 Low = 0 ?

I don't see why you can not use Rules to send MQTT and the Thingspeak template. I used Domoticz HTTP template and MQTT via rules. I found it was not that reliable in an older version, R104 or R107 I think. The rules would sometimes send the first of the BME280 values and the other 2 would be "n...

I have the the ET - 732 Maverik, I like it, but with my smoker 50m from the house and more importantly .5m think stone walls, the signal can't get in to the house unless the receiver is in front of a window. It would be nice to be able to capture the temperatures with an ESP and send over WiFi. I al...

At the time the ESP easy framework was developed, we anticipated on a maximum of 4 values for a sensor device. For that reason, plugins cannot report back more than 4 values, so you would have to setup one task per channel. The reason we have a single value per task for the INA219 is Domoticz. We'r...

Drum

Thank you for the info, not good news, but it all can't be. I looked at the BME280 but that one looks very different. Do you think it would work if I set it up like the INA219? With a selection for the channel? I would have to add 9 but that would work.

Drum

I am working on a plugin for a INA3221, but I am not sure how to proceed further. I have tried to copy everything from the Arduino library, where there is the same in the INA219 plug in. Where I am not sure how to proceed, is with the web form, and how to get the data. The board is basically 3 INA21...

Level 2 should give you the information send, it will have IDX 29 in it. Are you using http or MQTT?

I set up a new one over the weekend and when I look at the old one I saw I also had that connection. I Expect I had the same problem and also had to connect SD0 to Ground, just did not remember why.
