domoticz motion(type)sensors don't show battery level
-
hello. i build an motion sensors that works great but if i select sensor type on domoticz like "motion sensor", the battery level from "devices" disappear. That only happens on "motion sensor type", if i select other like on/off type ,the level appears but than i can't use the "disable after x seconds" feature present only on motion sensor type.
any one have this problem? i can't find if its an domoticz bug or mysensors , or what what happens
code is bellow but i think it's ok because if i select other type of sensor ,on domoticz, battery status work good. .thanks.
void setup() { pinMode(DI_SENSOR1, INPUT); //pinMode(DI_SENSOR2, INPUT); // sets the motion sensor digital pin as input analogReference(INTERNAL); } void presentation() { // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller sendSketchInfo("Motion Sensor", "1.0"); // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices) present(CHILD_ID, S_MOTION); } void loop() { int sensorValue = analogRead(BATTERY_SENSE_PIN); float vBat = static_cast<float>(sensorValue * (8.2/1023)); #ifdef MY_DEBUG Serial.print("A0: "); Serial.println(sensorValue); Serial.print("Battery Voltage: "); Serial.println(vBat); #endif delay(500); int batteryPcnt = static_cast<int>(((vBat-6)/(8.4-6))*100.); delay(500); // ((1e3+150)/150)*1.1 = Vmax = 8.43 Volts // 8.43/1023 = Volts per bit = ~0.00804 #ifdef MY_DEBUG Serial.print("Battery percent: "); Serial.print(batteryPcnt); Serial.println(" %"); #endif if (oldBatteryPcnt != batteryPcnt) { // Power up radio after sleep sendBatteryLevel(batteryPcnt); oldBatteryPcnt = batteryPcnt; } //motion bool tripped = digitalRead(DI_SENSOR1) == HIGH; Serial.println(tripped); send(msg.set(tripped?"1":"0")); sleep(digitalPinToInterrupt(DI_SENSOR1), RISING, 0); } -
I have 2 motion sensors on Domoticz, and they both show the battery level.
Maybe it is because your level doesn't get sent often enough. I do send a battery level every 30 minutes even if the value hasn't changed (which is way too often. But, I am still experimenting with these nodes.)
Or, maybe it has to do with the Domoticz version. My Domoticz version is 2020.2 -
My version it's V4.11207 .I can't upgrade more without upgrade Os from "strecht"to new raspbian Os. Shouldn't be the sensor update frequency because if i go to domoticz now and just change sensor type to" on/off switch" ,battery level just appears there on debices.
I think that i have to upgrade everyting...Os and domoticz but its a pain,because i have to pair zwave devices from shutters again...and probably new bugs appear.... My thought is;linux that work...don't touch 😝 -
I know what you mean.
I have several Pi's. I upgraded them from Stretch to Buster using instructions found here https://pimylifeup.com/upgrade-raspbian-stretch-to-raspbian-buster/I only got the courage to ugrade my domoticz server after having upgraded 3 others first with no problems.
But it did work. -
On a new card i updated OS to Raspian Buster and installed latest domoticz V 2.2020. BUT the problem still the same . no battery value present soon as this sensor report a new "data" AND it's as motion sensor and not as any other type of sensor. If it works to others i really don't understand what happens...:confounded:
