Let's Control It

Micha_he

But that if-construct works for month, without that I recognize any problems.
And in my tests, the event 'PumpeUndNT' is commented out (Line2 in event 'VentilSchalten').

Thanks, that you take a look in it.

Micha_he

I've a problem with my rules of my irrigation control (beta/develop-state). The event-rule 'VentilSchalten' (without the current comments) switch my valves on or off. The event-commands like 'Event,VentilSchalten=1,1' works as I expect. The event-rule 'AutoPrgStartStop' should start the program 1-3 ...

Micha_he

If I enable 'Append Unit Number to hostname' in newer ESPEasy versions, the MQTT-sysname differs from the DNS-hostname.
DNS is 'NAME-NUMBER' and MQTT is 'NAME_NUMBER' !

Is that wanted and will it stay that way in newer versions?

Micha_he

or...

[Device#Value]^2^.5

for ABS.

Micha_he

I mean, I'll look that there is no other problems and the instability is only because I enabled the syslog and not e.g. the newly added repeater.

Micha_he

@TD-er: You mean, I need flash a new Firmware or is the problem still exists and 'we all' need a later firmware?

Micha_he

I'll watch the ESP for a few more days and then test a newer firmware...

Micha_he

I've a ESP with the Firmware ESP_Easy_mega_20200801_normal_WROOM02_2M256. If I enable the logging to a syslog-server, the operation of the ESP is very unstable. Reboot's while rule operations and additional reboot's while idle-time. Now I've disabled the logging to the syslog-server again and it's w...

Micha_he

I need it on my MOES WIFI Dimmer with 1MB Flash.

I use only:

- openHAB MQTT
- Serial MCU controlled switch
- Switch input

Maybe 'Generic dummy device' is a good idea... But I'm not currently using it.

Micha_he

Same here with 'ESP_Easy_mega_20200829_normal_ESP8266_1M_VCC.bin'. No 'Serial MCU controled switch' available !

Micha_he

No. If you didn't factory-reset your ESP before new flashing, it didn't loose the config. It starts with the last config.

Or flash a blank (with the suitable size of the ESP-flash) image before the new one, to clean it.

Micha_he

And your 'wall switch' is connected to GPIO14 and the device-name is 'Hall_light' ? And GPIO14 has a pull-down/pull-up resistor? Is the switch connected to 3.3V or ground? The state of the switch device only go to a value 11, when the longpress-time has passed. State 0 occurs immediately. You can se...

Micha_he

But you must new configure your device! The plugin get a other number...

Micha_he

Look here: https://www.letscontrolit.com/wiki/index.php/Tutorial_Rules under TaskValueSet. But what should the variable do? The basic description of what the rule should do is still missing. Only: Switch Hall_light=On then change GPIO16 to 1 and when switch Hall_light=Off the change GPIO16 back to 0...

Micha_he

Maybe it's better to activate "LongPress"-event and use: On Hall_light#state=10 do (or On Hall_light#state=11 do) to switch your output-GPIO. This avoids short (0-500ms) switching operations. My idea: On Hall_light#state=11 do GPIO,16,1 endon On Hall_light#state=0 do GPIO,16,0 endon Or,......

Micha_he

Nice workaround. Works with %eventvalue1% also. Thanks.

Micha_he

No, it's not 0! The result between:

Event,Eventname

and

Event,Eventname=0 is different. The if-condition isn't true. Also the check '<1' is not true, if no eentvalue is given.

Micha_he

What's the recommended way, to check if the eventvalue contains a value ?

Code: Select all

on eventname do
  if %eventvalue1%=0
    (do something)
  endif
endon

Check for zero seems not work! Can I check for undefined?

Micha_he

Done... https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy/pull/3177

Micha_he

Oh... damn, I mean the longclick minimal-interval ! In this case, double-clicking doesn't help me.

Micha_he

Is it possible (without disturbing other things) to reduce the minimal doubleclick time of the P001_Switch-Plugin to 500ms ? The check inside the plugin seems to be ten-per-second... Background of my questions is: I would like to filter out GPIO-HIGH-signals smaller than ~0.5 seconds and Debunce tim...

Micha_he

The Hall sensor (KY-024, https://www.az-delivery.de/products/hall-sensor-modul) has a 3.3V TTL output and is connected to a GPIO-pin from the ESP. Very simple...

Micha_he

I want to catch info's (date, time, duration) from a hall-sensor, whose binary signal is sporadic (2-3 a month) wrong. But if I recognize the wrong signal, this is within a few minutes, the web-log didn't help, if it wasn't open before. A syslog-server or the MQTT-log is sometimes only a little help...

Micha_he

Yes, but the error appears only every few days...

and a 'tail' like solution should display the log-entrys after a boot sequence

Micha_he

Ok, than I need another solution to catch my sporadic problem.

Micha_he

Is it possible to get the x-lines (like tail) from the ESPEasy-log via web-interface ? I've no syslog-server and if I open the log via the tools page, I see only new events and not the events some seconds before. For troubleshooting it would be better to cache a few lines and show the cached events ...

Micha_he

I've checked the 'ESP_Easy_mega-20200410_normal_ESP8266_1M.bin" with my (modified with 680k between Vcc and GPIO16) ESP-01. Same settings and the ESP-01 goes safe in deepsleep for 300s, wake up, send 4 sets of generic-sysinfo-data to my MQTT and goes in deepsleep again. The problem doesn't seem...

Micha_he

@parabacus: Yes, I've solved the problem on my battery-powered window-contact with a 1,2MOhm (high value to reduce standby current) resistor. But my probem was not exactly the same as yours. My ESP-01 didn't go into deepsleep-mode safely, when powered >3V. But the reset in my circuit is via a extern...

Micha_he

Maybe try a external pullup-resistor like 100k from GPIO16 to Vcc. ESPEasy implemantation of the internal pullup/pulldown on GPIO16 is somewhat unclear

I mean this thread: https://www.letscontrolit.com/forum/vie ... 004#p26004

Micha_he

Works great for me too. ~600byte rule-code saved

Micha_he

Nice... The feature is added, before I asked for it

Micha_he

I'll change my rule this evening and report the result here...

Micha_he

@TD-er: You think it should work?

Micha_he

Example (current): On Rules#Timer=1 do Event,CloseValve=1 LogEntry,ValveClose 1 Let,1,0 EndOn On Rules#Timer=2 do Event,CloseValve=2 LogEntry,ValveClose 2 Let,2,0 EndOn On Rules#Timer=3 do Event,CloseValve=3 LogEntry,ValveClose 3 Let,3,0 EndOn My idea: On Rules#Timer do Event,CloseValve=%eventvalue%...

Micha_he

Is it possible to use one 'Rules#Timer' trigger and use the timer# in %eventvalue% ?

I've 6 partially parallel running timer, which mostly execute the same actions.

Micha_he

... and the 'deepsleep,0'-command only works in the firmware versions 04/10/2020 or later.

Micha_he

The correct command is 'deepsleep,0' !

Micha_he

P45N02LD is N-Mosfet. Or I'm wrong?

No B/C/E !

Micha_he

You can't conect a 5v relay direct to a ESP GPIO!

You need a transistor to boost the current, maybe you need also more then 3.3V to switch the relay.

A simply NPN transistor in common-emitter-circuit should do that.

Micha_he

Connect the SSR over a transistor with a resistor at the basis. Maybe the ESP has not enough current at the output.

Micha_he

Hi. If my pull-request is merged to mega, I've deleted the branch via VSCode command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) and 'Delete Branch...". All is Ok, the branch is locally deleted. Is there any way in VSCode's command palette', that allows me to delete branch remotely (on GitHub) to? Many thanks for y...

Micha_he

Have you set 'Send Boot State' in the switch-device ?

Otherwise the state is sent first, when it has changed.

Micha_he

TD-er wrote: ↑24 Mar 2020, 14:18 So during sleep it does consume the expected low current (roughly 60 uA) and after this the energy consumption rises even when the node does not boot?

Yes, that is right.

Micha_he

Can you measure what happens on GPIO16 after the sleep time is over? When sleep-time (from command deepsleep,xxx) is over, the voltage level goes from ~Vcc to GND and stay there. That seems ok, because it should normally reset via RST (not wired in my circuit). But in this state, the ESP needs to m...

What have I configured wrong, that this field is displayed in my self-build image ?

I've two of the V2.0. Works perfectly, also with 3.3V. One of them for ~1 year in my water-cistern.

Micha_he

You should use events to switch your relays.

Code: Select all

on eventname1 do
  GPIO,12,1
  GPIO,13,0
  GPIO,14,0
endon

Now you just have to see how you trigger the event from Domoticz. Via http it looks like this:

Code: Select all
