Multi Binary Switches

@maltimus

I can't seem to get binary to work in an Array.

[raditv]

you have to make an array also for debouncer

have you checked this thread?

I'm trying to do Multi Binary switches without the relays. I tried using the Multi Button Relay sketch, but I'm afraid that if remove the relay function, it would affect the button setup.

@Rachmat-Aditiya How do I go about doing that an array for debouncer?

the example of debouncing an array of sensors was in the code in the examples... was my point.

Here is one example with a few extras.

// Simple binary switch example 
// Connect button or door/window reed switch between 
// digitial I/O pin 3 (BUTTON_PIN below) and GND.

#include <MySensor.h>
#include <SPI.h>
#include <Bounce2.h>
#include <Time.h>        //http://playground.arduino.cc/Code/Time
#include <TimeAlarms.h>  //http://playground.arduino.cc/Code/Time

MySensor gw;

#define RADIO_ID 12
#define noReeds 5
const int BUTTON_PIN[] = {14, 15, 16, 17, 18};            // Arduino Digital I/O pin for button/reed switch, A0 - A4
boolean reedState[] = {HIGH, HIGH, HIGH, HIGH, HIGH};


Bounce debouncer[noReeds];
MyMessage msg[noReeds];

void setup(){
  Serial.println("Starting setup" );
  gw.begin(NULL, RADIO_ID, true);  //stattc RADIO_ID an enable repeater
  Alarm.delay(250);
  gw.sendSketchInfo("Alarm Pannel", "1.0");
  Alarm.delay(250);
  gw.requestTime(receiveTime);
  // initialize Relays with corresponding buttons
  for (int i = 0; i < noReeds; i++){
    msg[i].sensor = i;			// initialize messages
    msg[i].type = V_TRIPPED;
    debouncer[i] = Bounce();		// initialize debouncer
    debouncer[i].attach(BUTTON_PIN[i]);
    debouncer[i].interval(5);
    // Setup the button
    pinMode(BUTTON_PIN[i],INPUT);
    // Activate internal pull-up
    digitalWrite(BUTTON_PIN[i],HIGH);
    gw.present(i, S_DOOR);		// present sensor to gateway
    Serial.print("setup for switch: ");
    Serial.print(BUTTON_PIN[i]);
    Serial.println(" complete" );
    Alarm.timerRepeat(720, updateState); // update relay status every 2 hrs
    Alarm.delay(250);
  }
  Serial.println("Setup complete" );
}


//  Check if digital input has changed and send in new value
void loop() 
{
  gw.process();
  for (int i = 0; i < noReeds; i++){
    debouncer[i].update();
    // Get the update value
    int value = debouncer[i].read();
    if (value != reedState[i]) {
       // Send in the new value
       gw.send(msg[i].set(value==HIGH ? 1 : 0), false);
       reedState[i] = value;
       Serial.print("updating state for swicth: ");
       Serial.print(BUTTON_PIN[i]);
       Serial.print(" state: ");
       Serial.println(reedState[i]);
    }
  }
}

void updateState(){
  Serial.println("Start state info");
  for (int i = 0; i < noReeds; i++)
  {
      Serial.print("sending update for switch: ");
      Serial.println(BUTTON_PIN[i]);
      gw.present(i, S_DOOR);
      Alarm.delay(250);
      //MyMessage msg(relayPin[pin],V_LIGHT);
      gw.send(msg[i].set(reedState[i]), false); // Send last state from eprom to GW
      Alarm.delay(250);
  }
}

// This is called when a new time value was received
void receiveTime(unsigned long time) {
  setTime(time);
}```

@mikeones Thank you, The sketch is very helpful and it works. Just out of curiosity, what is the function of Time & TimeAlarm ?

[mikeones]

It forces a status update at a predefined interval.

Alarm.timerRepeat(720, updateState); // update relay status every 2 hrs

[jeylites]

@mikeones Got it.

[Cowboy1980]

Much appreciated for the script but Ive been trying to get more reed switches running off the one nano, I added the extra pins to Button_Pin and changed noReeds and boonlean readstate to represent how many pins I was using. I have 12 showing up in vera and serial shows correctly the change in state of all 12 pins but in the Vera all 12 show but dont trip/show the state change. What am I missing? When I run the code youve written as is everything works fine but as soon as I even add 1 more pin Mios wont show the state change. Plz help!

@Cowboy1980 Can you post your script...
