thank you all for your answeres ! :) What i try today is a levelshifter to use 5V for the sensor. i have some 4 channel levelshifter, wich are "ready to use". so i try one of these first. And i connect a 10uf capacitor in front of each sensor. "in front" means 1 meter, cause i ca...

Hello all :) again it´s me and again i have trouble with connecting my tempsensors together. using "normal 4MB from 27.08.2019" on a NodeMCU. i have a 12 meter long cable (microphonecable). after 7 meter there is the first sensor, then after 2 more meter the second and at the end at 12 met...

Sasch600xt

sounds great !!!

Thank you for the sneak preview

have a great day

Sasch600xt

WOW !!! this is so helpful !!! Thank you for sharing :) is your panel maybe this one ? https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B072LX4LTV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 i was thinking about an resistor divider to messure battery voltage by using the analog input. So i could monitor th...

Sasch600xt

that would be awesome !

also nice info would be:

- size of solarmodul
- how much watts you get out of the panel
- typ of battery
- how much mAh the battery has

thank you

Sasch600xt

@ dynamicdave: yes, your right, i will match the data period to my solarpanel :) at the moment i did settings 300s sleep and 20s awake time. i choose 20s awake time so i have a chance to reach the cotroller every 5 minutes and do some changes to the settings :) How do you reach the controller to cha...

Sasch600xt

thank you, it works perfect !!!

But settings was at "Config" tab i assume.

in Advanced was another option called "CPU Eco Mode"

Would that help also additional to sleep settings ?

Hello all, i have an ESP8266 with 2x DS18b20 temp sensors running. At the moment i get every minute new data. Problem is, the device is running on battery and my solarpanel does not charge enough on cloudy days. So i search for a solution to get the power consumption down. it would be fine to get ev...

Hello all

just a simple question:

how big can be the number of uptime minute ?
is it a 16bit integer with a max value of 65.535 ?

Thank you for answeres

Sascha

Sasch600xt

thank you so much !

i could not think of the most easy solution

Have agreat day

Task is "Temp-Oben"

Value is "Temp"

Sasch600xt

Hello all,

probably this is a prette dumb question but i cant find the answere.

How is the syntax to show up a Value of the ds1820b sensor in a line of the OLED Display using the framed plug in.

Should be something like [ds1820b] %Value% i guess

Thanks for help !!!
Have a great day
Sascha

Sasch600xt

ok,

seems like common clock is working.

but still it looks like i only get data of one sensor.

i made temp different of 20 degree now for the sensors.

But i only get data of sensor "Unten" which somehow mirrors it data to sensor "Oben" ?

Sasch600xt

Hello all :), i do try to get up to 3 SHT10 sensors to work. At the moment 2 are connected like the screenshot will show. both sensors show nearly same data. But pysical the are 20 meters apart. One is groundlevel, one is up in the roof. With mx external temprature device i get 24 degree up in the r...

Sasch600xt

yes, but i have already a PCA9685 and there is a plugin for in ESP Easy.
plus budman showed a very good and very small solution to get a analog signal out of a pwm signal.

the only question right now is why does the PCA9685 not work ?
i must do something wrong here.

Thanks for help
Sascha

Sasch600xt

Hello all :) i do not get a signal out of the PCA9685 ? i do not want to drive servo motors, i just try to get a pwm signal out of the PCF9685. It shows up after "scan for i2C device". So i try: http://192.168.123.45/control?cmd=PCAPWM,1,4095 and get: { "log": ": PWM 1"...

Sasch600xt

i have a PCA9685 here and i will try one of those

Sasch600xt

Now another question :) i dont understand in doku: MCPPulse,<pin>,<value>,<duration> 1,0 Pulse control on MCP23017 output pins (duration in mS, MILLIseconds) so how would a http command look like for MCP port 1 with a pwm of 127 ( i assume value can be from 0-255) ? Thank you so much Sascha

Sasch600xt

Perfect !!!

Sasch600xt

http command ---> ESP Easy -----> 4 times analog 0-3.3Volt out ------> 4 CH Dimmer

I see the ADS1115 is for analog INPUT, but i need to have analog OUTPUT.

Sasch600xt

i want to send MQTT Messages to the ESP. like: http://192.168.123.45/control?cmd=ANALOG_OUT,1,255 http://192.168.123.45/control?cmd=ANALOG_OUT,2,127 http://192.168.123.45/control?cmd=ANALOG_OUT,3,0 http://192.168.123.45/control?cmd=ANALOG_OUT,4,200 this sends the value to a 4ch dimmer (0-3.3volt exp...

Sasch600xt

Hello all :) may i have a probably dumb question but i cant find the answere. i need to send out 4 analog values from ESP (0-3.3V / 0-255) I have a MCP23017 connected to ESP. Can i do it with a MCP ? And if yes, how would the syntax look like ? If NO, is there a way to get 4 analog output pins worki...

Sasch600xt

i use "Easy EDA"

works perfect for me

Sasch600xt

Well......a few i could sell now.....not 1000th of.

But if someone here needs one or two, please feel free to send me a PM

Have a great das
Sascha

Sasch600xt

that was the goal

Sasch600xt

i dont know why, but here is a workaround :

right click "open picture in new tab"

Sasch600xt

Hello all :) I got my first selfdraw PCB 2 days ago an i would like to share it with you :) 2 x MCP23017 portextender for up to 32 extra IOs. Each channel can be setted by jumper as Input or output. as input there is also a jumper to set a 10k pulldown resistor. as output there is ULN2803 transistor...

Things what we have to say now:

1. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR WORK WITH ESP EASY !!!!!!!
2. YOU ARE HEROS !!!!!
3. MERRY X_MAS

Sasch600xt

i will, but first i´ll do some tests with my new displays which arrive in 2 days. because this display here was in a 10 bucks "all in one" box and we all know how good the conponents are there :) So let´s see how the new ones are working. They should have the regular SSD1306 driver. Merry ...

Sasch600xt

that´s what i did try before and i have a white bar at the right over the whole height of the display and i am mising 2 pixel lines over all rows at the left.

So that brought me to:
https://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=335511.0

So the basic OLED plugin is not working for me.

Sasch600xt

Hello all :) today i made first tests with my OLED display. What confuses me is the first line in the display where it shows unit name and wifi ssid, time and antenna symbol at the right corner. Can i somehow switch that off or at least costumize ? If i use the OLED SSD1306 plugin i have a white bar...

Sasch600xt

thank you very much

Sasch600xt

ok, thank you

do you have a little example to do so ?

Thank you

Sascha

Sasch600xt

Hello all, may i ask for a documentation for this ? or can you help me to get it to work ? Probably i am the problem :) I hooked up an MCP23017 to my node via SDA/SCL I did config a device for "MCP23017 Input" at address port 32 (0x20, i made a scan first to get the address) So now i have ...

Sasch600xt

"soon" is enough for me......i also need time to build the devices

Thank you !

Sasch600xt

me again....sorry for 1000 questions :( at the moment i use "monitor gpio" in rules to get feedback back to MQTT server about the state of my relays or at least the state of the gpio pins. but with a portextender i guess i can not do it like this ? or can i monitor the gpios of a portexten...

Sorry, i have one more question: i found this page: https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php/PCA9685 but for me as a beginner the informations are not exact enough. how would a http command looks like to set for example PCA9685 pin 3 to "HIGH" ? (for switching relays i do not need PWM,...

Sasch600xt

thank you very much for showing me not one, a few solutions to my problem.

i have an I2C port extender here and will try to get it to work.

brilliant ideas, thank you again!

Just for others with the same problem: The DHT11 is a hardware 8bit device. So there is no float value to be expected. I use a DHT22 now which can be configured to 9,10,11,12 bit resolution. So my "problem" was just a hardware limitation of the DHT11. Nothing wrong with ESPEasy here. Greet...

Hello All, i have a ralais board with 8 relais as "active low" From my Lolin Nodemcu V3 i go from GPIOs to an ULN2803 Transistor Array because of 3.3V to 5V converting. So far all works great. So if i set GPIO to "High", the ULN2803 sets the input on the raleisboard to "LOW&...

Sasch600xt

ok, i will

Thank you

Sasch600xt

Here is a screenshot of my settings

i used 2 dezimal points

Hello all,

i am just wondering my DHT11 shows up the values only as Integer and not as expected as float.

it is always x.0 instead of x.>=0

i use the new image 20181004

Thanks for your help
Sascha

Sasch600xt

oh, ok.

then it was a missunderstood of my head
