My Project

Nice, thank you for sharing. Not very surprised about the use of running speed and cadence profile as there is no profile for voltage reporting (battery service can only report a percentage).

@sergio_uno I tend to agree, but I do not have control over the forum or the openhardware.io website. I would mean though that you would have to add the OSH logo to your boards, and probably your identifiers on the cogs.

@boots33 You could say that. It will get colder too. Probably below 0°F/-18°C at times over the next few months. That's more than a TAD brisk. That's lock me up in a heated box and throw away the key brisk.

@BartE I purchased this module: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Wireless-Module-CC2500-2-4G-Low-power-Consistency-Stability-Small-Size/32702148262.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.L1Dfwj This is the pinout... [image: alt text] ... and I'm in doubt how to wire GDO2, GDO0, RFSC above. RFCL - SCK (pin 13)? GDO2 - leave open? GDO0 - CE (pin 9)? RFCS - CS(pin 10)? Would you mind to clarify? Thanks!

@Artmai said in Looking for bluetooth proximity tracking (+/- 10cm precision) hardware.: hardware solution would you recommend me to build a small device sending Bluetooth signals that an iPh any other techno you would recommend to track this though?

@Yveaux Thanks for your reply. I've done a lot of debugging today. And I guess I found the issue. It's definitely related to the radio power consumption as you suggested. I'm currently using the new RFM69 driver, with ATC enabled by default. As long as the power level stays below -4 dB, everything works fine. If the gateway is powered off, the radio power level automatically increases to 100% and the PIR behaves weird. It's always HIGH. By rebooting the gateway, the node relink itself and gradually lowers its power. As before, when it goes below -4dB the PIR starts to work again. Since it's a battery powered device I decided to set #define MY_RFM69_MAX_POWER_LEVEL_DBM (-4) at the beginning of the sketch file. Even if the gateway fails (shutdown) the PIR does not get HIGH anymore. All the measurements work fine now by limiting the max power to the radio. By doing so all the sleeps of 1000ms after each send are not needed anymore.

@brendanl Sounds like you're speaking from experience... I've never worked with a Daikin system, but I have had my share of similar problems in my years of working on electronics..

@jeremushka I haven't done it on the smart outlet but I did do it on my "Whole House Fan" project. You can check out the code from that if you're interested. Here is a link to the video if you wanted to check that out: https://youtu.be/KVsUe7sOCPo Also, just make sure you check out the specs on the acs712 and don't pass through more current than is safe. I don't remember the specs off the top of my head but I knew my whole house fan was safe because of what it would be drawing

@Nca78 said in First go at a smallish TH sensor that can be deployed anywhere.: At what voltage are you running your sensebender micro ? Using 2x AA batteries (3V) Current multimeter reading is 2.75V, reading on Vera is 57%. Looks like reading on Vera is out. I've stuck on a sticker with today's date to see how long sensebender will go on, probably a few years.

by looking at the picture the voltage is measured near the battery, so I'd say it is the battery voltage

@raulandresmoch The 3D design is for the Easy Newbie PCB designed by @sundberg84. The board carries an arduino pro mini and the nRF24L01+ radio.

@mfalkvidd YES!!!! That was the problem!!!! Thank you so much!!!!

@Newzwaver I think that makes sense. D3 on Wemos D1 Minis is GPIO0. I usually use the Dn notation, because I find it easier to understand.

@ben999 just for the record... =! is wrong. Should have been != Makes quite a difference :(

Re: LCD Clock and Text sensor node with new V_TEXT Hello , I have done the same exercise also with the LCD 4*20 and use the same program. It is great. It works but only I have the first line with the date. The lines 2,3,4 are empty. In Domoticz my V_TEXT are created and filled in. It seems that I can not read correctly the information LCD_line2, LCD_line3,LCD_line4 [image: 0_1510218378199_Screen Shot 2017-11-09 at 9.56.27 AM.png] [image: 0_1510218403691_Screen Shot 2017-11-09 at 9.55.50 AM.png] we can see that on the line READ , the text is V_TEXT but nothing is received. Why ? [image: 0_1510218424508_Screen Shot 2017-11-09 at 9.50.27 AM.png] Thanks
