How to connect QUIP300 to Domoticz

[gohan]

it depends, you could also wire it to the 5V and detect when the digital pin goes high you have movement.

THank you Gohan. Now everything is more clearer. :-) Will try today to wire everything.

Hi GOHAN,

Finally i've build my serial gateway ( Arduino UNO + nRF24) + node (Arduino Nano + nRF24) but i failed with PIR conection to my NODE. How should i connect PIR's relay to Nano ? ( digital input + GND ) ?
Now i know that relay is normally closed ( 0, 1 state, no power on it)
I was trying to connect this way and it was working for few second ( i saw in the serial monitor , 1 , 0) but after some time NODE was sending weird data to GW.
How connect it corectlly and how to mod the sketch for more sensors? (4 pcs). ```
This is the way ?

#define DIGITAL_INPUT_SENSOR 3   // The digital input you attached your motion sensor.  (Only 2 and 3 generates interrupt!)
#define CHILD_ID 1   // Id of the sensor child
#define DIGITAL_INPUT_SENSOR 4   // The digital input you attached your motion sensor.  (Only 2 and 3 generates interrupt!)
#define CHILD_ID 2   // Id of the sensor child```

IF the pir sensor has a normally closed relay you need to use the 5v output of the arduino to one pin of the relay and the other to the digital input and use the code to send TRIPPED true message when pin goes LOW and TRIPPED false when pin is high

Hi Gohan,

This is the way i should follow ?:

	// Read digital motion value
	
  if(digitalRead(DIGITAL_INPUT_SENSOR) == HIGH){
    tripped = true;
  } else {
    tripped = false;
  }

Not so easy to set :-)

[gohan]

actually the opposite, then you need to send the tripped value. Pls check the logic with the relay on the sensor

[mckenzi]

If my understanding is correct it works as follows:
(HIGH : when relay is closed, connected to digital pin & 5V VCC)
1- HIGH->TRUE-> msg.set 1
2- LOW->FALSE->msg.set 0

It works but it's very unstable. Sometimes working sometimes not.
Is it necessary to add some resistors to this circuit?

[gohan]

In this case you need to debug where problem is, if it is the relay not closing, the arduino not getting the pin change or message send failed. Also pls post all the code you are using.

[mckenzi]

Relay is working correctly, checked with multimeter. Now i'm study about debugging.
Below is the code i'm using (4 PIRs).
Problem with sleep mode?

You can use only 2 interrupts on pin 2 and 3, calling 4 sleep functions is useless
