[contest] My 12 input high precision pulse counter (kWh/ W)

[MarkV]

Thanks for the commet and i defently need some help.
Sorry i didn't see your "new" post about the pulse counter.

I'm uploading the sketches now.
I only got one question, what should i uncomment in the sketches when i'm not using the display and counter?

And when i got this working, is it possible to add to other sensors, a CNY70 (reflector sensor) to readout a water and gas meter? (but this is the next step ;-) )

I also installed the beta version from domoticz.

@MarkV Next to my reaction in the other post. I cannot be hard to add more (different) sensors to the sketch. As long as you do not attach LCD / rotary, you will only miss the information and interaction.

Merlin Gerin, Eaton, and Beger...quite the mix.

I like the domoticz display....whats your overall opinion on it?

did anybody already upgraded the 12 Input pulse counter to 2.0? just asking :bowtie:

[AWI]

@jeti If you are just asking. :smirk: I have updated it to 2.0 beta

[jeti]

@AWI: :+1:

would you mind sharing the sketches? :innocent:

[AWI]

@jeti Take a loot at git. The master sketch needs a little change (mysensors.h i.s.o. mysensor.h) The slave is not changed. I am a lttle disabled at the moment, so can't help you any furthe right now.

@AWI thanks alot, i will have a look :+1:

hopefully nothing serios... either way all the best :thumbsup:

Hi @AWI!

The GIT link is broken. Can I find your sketch for this counter elsewhere?

I would like to implement this counter as a "local sensor" on an ethernet gateway without radio. I guess this would require some tweaking but right now I'm confident. x)

Thanks!

@NickBuilder soory but the transition to 2.0 gave me a little GIT headache and I broke some links.. I restored the pulse counter sketches. Be carefull with combining the sketch with ethernet functionality... Both eat a lot of RAM/ROM and are time critical.
The sketch also stores a large amount of data in EEPROM. Be aware that the space there is more limited than the 256 bytes mentioned with saveState().
Please share your progress

@AWI as did got get my modifcations 100% running I was pumped to see your latest update, but for reasons i do not understand i get an error while compiling:

error: 'hour' was not declared in this scope

same is the case for setTime, minute etc...

i already tried some stuff with the time.h but it seems nothing has an impact, not even deleting the whole library (which should end in a "libraby not found" error, but only shows the errors described above)
any idea what to look for?

thanks

ok found the answer :stuck_out_tongue:
the latest Time.h is only pointing to TimeLib.h so if I am calling TimeLib.h (instead of Time.h) directly it compiles
