Problems with sending data to thingspeak reliably

Sorry for this cryptic topic... :) (original topic name was: "Something is wrong with something.... maybe sendhttp") Usually i gathered data with espeasy and battery powered sensors. On WiFi#Connected do TaskRun,3 SendToHTTP,api.thingspeak.com,80,/update?api_key=********&field5=[sensor...

Re: Mega (V2.0.0) OTA firmware updates on 1MB modules

What is the size of the currently flashed 'sketch' ? You can see it on the sysinfo page at the bottom. If it is > 600 kB, you cannot update via OTA, not even when using the 2-step OTA. But the line with "OTA 2-step Needed: true" is misleading then. Right?! For me, this implies that a two-...

Re: Help: The ultimate guide for batterie powered measuring station

But TaskRun should be on system boot so that the BMEs start to measure as soon as possible? More like this: On System#Boot do TaskRun,1 // Update first sensor TaskRun,2 // Update second sensor endon On WiFi#Connected do TimerSet_ms,10 SendToHTTP api.thingspeak.com,80,/update?api_key=xxx&field1=[...

Re: Help: The ultimate guide for batterie powered measuring station

Thank you for this explanation. I never really understood TaskRun and TaskValueSetAndRun.

But unfortunately i have still the same problem. Data is either one cycle behind or the same as in the last cycle....

Somehow i must get SendToHttp to wait for the data

Re: Help: The ultimate guide for batterie powered measuring station

You can use a TaskRun command on the sensors that need to be updated, just before you are sending the data. I already use TaskValueSetandRun to update the Dummydevice but thats not making sure that the data is available on wifi#connected. I am also not sure that TaskValueSetandRun is really helping...

Re: Help: The ultimate guide for batterie powered measuring station

As Thingspeak has a rate limit on it, wouldn't it make more sense to send the data to another node in the network which isn't battery powered and let that one handle sending it? The Thingspeak limit is not my problem. Data is beeing send around every 30minutes My problem is, that i dont know how to...

I am using multiple Esp8266 with sensors attached as mobile sensor stations. Therefore i let the esp sleep for a while and wake it it up as short as possible (around 3sek) to send data to thingspeak (i use sendtohttp) But it is alway a hassle to write the rules, that the data thats beeing send is co...

Re: commands from dashboard broken?

Or maybe it has something to do with the GPIO command moved to be an internal command.
don´t think so... i testet several other commands with the same result
If I have it fixed, what test build do you need?

For example, is it positioned in an evironment where the relative humidity is above 80%?

no. it is inside and only was once above 80.

You might want to replace the Sonoff (or its flash chip), as this looks hardware related. Got another guinee pig to test? no...not here where i am right now. but i will try tor replace the flash chip when nothing works. Is it posioned in above average humidity? i am not sure what you mean by that? ...

Same problems here. Except that i use a Sonoff S20.
