Garage Door + Other Sensors
-
Hello,
I have successfully created many sensors based on the information learned on this forum. However, I can't get my latest project to work.I am trying to make a series of sensors which will tell me the status of the garage door, if the garage light is on, if there is anyone in the garage, and then a relay allowing me to remotely trigger the garage door. The code is below.
Two problems:
- I can get the door sensors, light sensor, and motion sensor to appear in Vera, but the light sensor is registering the motion sensor activity.
*I can't get the relay to register in Vera.
The code compiles and uploads without issue. Any ideas on where to look to resolve the two issues? Thanks in advance.

- I can get the door sensors, light sensor, and motion sensor to appear in Vera, but the light sensor is registering the motion sensor activity.

Start counting your child ids from 10 as the child ID 1 (CHILD_ID_DOORA) is conflicting with the relay. Move the children presentations outside the "for" cycle and leave there just the relay presentation.
-
@gohan Thanks gohan. All the sensors now register in Vera and are collecting data accurately. However, the relay doesn't respond at all. Still trying to figure that out.
-
Don't use delay or sleep functions when using relays or any other actuator that needs a command from the controller; use wait instead. In addition i saw 2 sleep functions called at the end of loop, I think there is one too much and needs to be replaced with wait. If you want to menage Pir/door sensors with interrupts you can use the normal attachpintointerrupt function since the node is not sleeping.
-
I would suggest using interrupts for the motion sensors. This way you only need to actively monitor light sensor. Everything else will only happen and take up processing power when it is actually needed.
-
That is what I wrote earlier
-
So you did
I somehow managed to miss that part.

Thank you both. Everything is working as designed now. For now, I am just going to stick with the code below. I will put the interrupts in on the next version.
