Help with combination DHT and Relay
-
Hey I am building up a useful mysensors network around my apartment and could use a helping hand. I have several single purpose setups going (relay, dht, moisture, etc) but I would really like to learn to roll them together. My first attempt is for a DHT and relay. I have combined the code but I am getting radio init error in the serial monitor. Could someone lend an eye to help me learn this? Thanks in advance!

a little advice...
comments seem really helpful for beginners, but believe me you will look to lose as much of that as possible once you really learn this stuff.
put what I did (untested) side-by-side with your code and look for the critical differences in the
setup()
function.#include <SPI.h> #include <MySensor.h> #include <DHT.h> #include <MySigningNone.h> #include <MyTransportNRF24.h> #include <MyTransportRFM69.h> #include <MyHwATMega328.h> #define CHILD_ID_HUM 0 #define CHILD_ID_TEMP 1 #define CHILD_ID_RELAY 2 #define RELAY_PIN 4 #define HUMIDITY_SENSOR_DIGITAL_PIN 3 //unsigned long SLEEP_TIME = 30000; // Sleep time between reads (in milliseconds) #define RELAY_ON 1 // GPIO value to write to turn on attached relay #define RELAY_OFF 0 // GPIO value to write to turn off attached relay MyTransportNRF24 radio(RF24_CE_PIN, RF24_CS_PIN, RF24_PA_LEVEL_GW); MyHwATMega328 hw; MySensor gw(radio, hw); DHT dht; float lastTemp; float lastHum; boolean metric = true; MyMessage msgHum(CHILD_ID_HUM, V_HUM); MyMessage msgTemp(CHILD_ID_TEMP, V_TEMP); void setup() { gw.begin(incomingMessage, AUTO, true); dht.setup(HUMIDITY_SENSOR_DIGITAL_PIN); gw.sendSketchInfo("Combo", "1.0"); gw.present(CHILD_ID_HUM, S_HUM); gw.present(CHILD_ID_TEMP, S_TEMP); gw.present(CHILD_ID_RELAY, S_LIGHT); metric = gw.getConfig().isMetric; pinMode(RELAY_PIN, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(RELAY_PIN, gw.loadState(1) ? RELAY_ON : RELAY_OFF); } void loop() { gw.process(); delay(dht.getMinimumSamplingPeriod()); float temperature = dht.getTemperature(); if (isnan(temperature)) { Serial.println("Failed reading temperature from DHT"); } else if (temperature != lastTemp) { lastTemp = temperature; if (!metric) { temperature = dht.toFahrenheit(temperature); } gw.send(msgTemp.set(temperature, 1)); Serial.print("T: "); Serial.println(temperature); } float humidity = dht.getHumidity(); if (isnan(humidity)) { Serial.println("Failed reading humidity from DHT"); } else if (humidity != lastHum) { lastHum = humidity; gw.send(msgHum.set(humidity, 1)); Serial.print("H: "); Serial.println(humidity); } } void incomingMessage(const MyMessage &message) { if (message.type == V_LIGHT) { digitalWrite(RELAY_PIN, message.getBool() ? RELAY_ON : RELAY_OFF); gw.saveState(1, message.getBool()); Serial.print("Incoming change for sensor:"); Serial.print(message.sensor); Serial.print(", New status: "); Serial.println(message.getBool()); } }
folks trying to extend that multi-relay sketch always seem to have issues. Perhaps a better executed extensible sketch is in order!

Thanks! right off the bat I am seeing this being added
gw.present(CHILD_ID_RELAY, S_LIGHT);
and this instead of each sketch called out this being in there
gw.sendSketchInfo("Combo", "1.0");
will this still work with domoticz?

@punter9 said:
this creates an instance of the MySensor class called "gw"
MySensor gw(radio, hw);
this runs the "present" function of the MySensors class in the gw instance, which tells your controller to create an instance of the device on Domoticz
gw.present(CHILD_ID_RELAY, S_LIGHT);
this function sends the name of the sketch and its version number to Domoticz to the parent device. You can only have one name...
gw.sendSketchInfo("Combo", "1.0");
will this still work with domoticz?
recommend that you try it!

ha! you are awesome. Thank you so much

Yes, do you have an idea how this would be designed?

okay got it working and both sensors have been found in domoticz. Only issue is relay doesn't turn on or off with control. But it has been found. I have it plugged into pin 4, checked that it worked by manually jumping the pins, and I can see the tx/rx light blink when I click the button in domoticz (but no relay click).

@hek @punter9 What do you guys think the sketch should do? Just control one single relais? If you guys don't have the time I'm glad to help you. Just want to return the favour for all that you guys have done. I'm really happy with MySensors.

Thanks for checking in @TheoL . My intent for this sketch was to learn how to combine sketches and make a useful project. Got that done and working! It would be cool if there was an easy way to help newbies like myself out doing this. I can tell you without this awesome forum I would have not figured out some pretty basic stuff! Thanks for all the help, this is an awesome site

what does the serial monitor show when you click the button in Domoticz?
