SensebenderMicro with two additional DS18b20



  • Dear experts, i have a problem with my sensebender micro with two additional DS18B20 Sensors. Since i upgraded the sketch from Version 1.5 to 2.1.1 the DS18b20 Sensors sends their temperature Values for about one hour or something like that and after this they did not send anymore. But the internal Temperature and Humidity Sensors (from Sensebender) does send the whole time... Can anybody helb me with this strange behavior? Here is my Sketch:

  • It is so strange... today i did some more tests... connected to serialmonitor... at the beginning all seems running correct but after a Little while i only see squares in my serial monitor output... BUT... again temperature and humidity from internal Sensors of sensebender are transmitted, only the two ds18b20 sensors did Not send anymore... i don't know what i can do now 😞 Hope anybody can help me.... thanks again

    @HarrySteff said in SensebenderMicro with two additional DS18b20:

    Try and remove the following lines from your sketch:

     #ifndef MY_OTA_FIRMWARE_FEATURE
       if ((measureCount == 5) && highfreq) 
       {
         clock_prescale_set(clock_div_8); // Switch to 1Mhz for the reminder of the sketch, save power.
         highfreq = false;
       } 
     #endif
    

    This switches to a lower frequency after approximately 5 minutes, this messes up the timing, which I normally don't care about with the Si7021 temperature sensor, but the DS1820 needs "precise" timing, to communicate, as it uses bit banging..
