Need help getting values from soil moisture sensor
Posted: 28 Oct 2023, 22:42
Hi,
I have the following soil moisture sensor "giesomat": https://www.ramser-elektro.at/shop/baus ... chichtung/
There is also an arduino sketch to read the values: http://fam-haugk.de/giessautomat-fuer-pflanzen
I can't get meaningfull values out of this sensor with espeasy (on esp32). I tried to configure it as a pulse counter but with no success. I get values out of it but they do not seems to reflect changes in moisture.
Is this the right device-type?
From the arduino sketch I understand that it counts the rising edges for 40ms and then divides by 4 to get the number of oscillations per 10ms
Is this doable with espeasy? I'm fairly new to espeasy and have just used it with a dht11 until now, so any help is appreciated!
thank you!
