Can't get motion interrupt to work in my (combined temp, battery and motion) sketch



  • Hi everyone,

    I've been having some trouble combining the temp, battery and motion sketch.
    I put the code together and battery level, temperature and motion info gets sent on the regular intervals, but I can't get the motion to trigger an interrupt.
    The code is below.

    I've tried flashing the the regular motion sketch and alter the names of the motion pin to MOTION_INPUT_SENSOR and that works.
    Also, I'm using a HC-SR501 on a 3.3V pro mini, but as I said, it acts correctly when using the regular sketch.

    Could someone take a look at my code and see what I might have missed?

    Here's my sketch:

    /**
     * The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
     * between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
     * The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
     * repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the
     * network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.

    I hope you don't lose your way in the sketch, because it's kind of cobbled together from other sketches I found, so it isn't well structured.
    Thanks in advance!

    Just a quick edit: this is the altered standard sketch that does work with the interrupt:

    Look at the line

     gw.sleep(INTERRUPT,CHANGE, SLEEP_TIME);
    

    vs.

    gw.sleep(SLEEP_TIME,CHANGE, SLEEP_TIME);
    

    😉



  • @AWI
    Thank you so much!
    I've been at this the entire morning and I just couldn't see it...

    Now the interrupt works perfectly!
    I'm just gonna find a way to only send the motion status on interrupt and not the battery level and motion temp.
    I think it'll be with some if statement.

    I'm off to mess around with the cvode some more!


  • Hero Member

    @BastienVH The return value of gw.sleep() show the cause of the wake-up. You can use that in your "if statement".. have fun..


  • Plugin Developer

    @BastienVH

    Hi! It looks as if you might possible get a conflict of child ids, between temp sensors and motion. You're presenting the temp sensors in the loop, and if they are more than 2, one temp sensor and the motion sensor will be presented as child id 2. Don't know what would happen in that case, if it's allowed to overwrite the id at presentation in that way, or not.



  • Hi everyone,

    It's been a while but now I've received some more arduinos, I'm back in action with developing my sketches.
    After the last problem (everytime motion is detected, temp also gets updated and sent), I've been tinkering with my sketch and if-statements.

    At the moment, I've got this (migrated from dallas to DHT for testing purposes):

    /**
    #include <SPI.h>
    #include <MySensor.h>
    #include <DHT.h>
    
    #define DIGITAL_INPUT_MOTION 3   // The digital input you attached your motion sensor.  (Only 2 and 3 generates interrupt!)

    #define CHILD_ID_MOT 2
    #define HUMIDITY_SENSOR_DIGITAL_PIN 4
    unsigned long SLEEP_TIME = 15000; // Sleep time between reads (in milliseconds) - low for testing purposes
    
    MySensor gw;
    DHT dht;
    float lastTemp;
    float lastHum;
    boolean metric = true;
    MyMessage msgHum(CHILD_ID_HUM, V_HUM);
    MyMessage msgTemp(CHILD_ID_TEMP, V_TEMP);
    MyMessage msgMot(CHILD_ID_MOT, V_TRIPPED);
    int node_id = 20;
    boolean lastTripped = false ;
    
    void setup()
    {
      gw.begin(NULL, node_id);
      dht.setup(HUMIDITY_SENSOR_DIGITAL_PIN);
    
      // Send the Sketch Version Information to the Gateway
      gw.sendSketchInfo("Humidity and motion", "1.0");
    
      pinMode(DIGITAL_INPUT_MOTION, INPUT);      // sets the motion sensor digital pin as input
    
      // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices)
      gw.present(CHILD_ID_HUM, S_HUM);
      gw.present(CHILD_ID_TEMP, S_TEMP);
      gw.present(CHILD_ID_MOT, S_MOTION);
      metric = gw.getConfig().isMetric;
    }
    
    void loop()
    {
    // OPTION 1: work with if statement
       int wake;
      wake = gw.sleep(INTERRUPT, CHANGE, SLEEP_TIME);
    
       if (wake > 0) {
         Serial.println("wake by motion");
         Serial.println("reading motion");
         motion();
       }
    
       else {
         Serial.println("wake by timer");
         Serial.println("reading motion");
         motion();
         Serial.println("reading temp/hum");
         humTemp();
       }
    
    //OPTION 2: NO IF-STATEMENT (commented out at the moment)
      /*
      motion();
      Serial.println("read temp / hum");
      humTemp();
    */
      Serial.println("going to sleep now.");
      gw.sleep(INTERRUPT, CHANGE, SLEEP_TIME); //sleep a bit
    }
    
    void motion() {
      // Read digital motion value
      boolean tripped = digitalRead(DIGITAL_INPUT_MOTION);
      Serial.println(tripped);
      if (lastTripped != tripped) {
        gw.send(msgMot.set(tripped ? "1" : "0")); // Send tripped value to gw
        lastTripped = tripped;
      }
    }
    
    void humTemp() {
      gw.wait(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);
      }
    }
    

    Strange things are happening...

    If I use OPTION 2, without if, so temp is always checked, interrupt get triggered instantly as shown here and sends a 'deactivate'-message 0 when the sensors sets back to 0 after +- 8 sec:

    1
    send: 20-20-0-0 s=2,c=1,t=16,pt=0,l=1,sg=0,st=ok:1
    read temp / hum
    going to sleep now.
    0
    send: 20-20-0-0 s=2,c=1,t=16,pt=0,l=1,sg=0,st=ok:0
    read temp / hum
    going to sleep now.
    

    If I use OPTION 1 (preferred because no unnecessary temp measurement), the interrupt seems to only occur when the motion signal goes back to 0 (low), which is late and doesn't provide me with a 1-signal (meaning it will not communicate presence, but only when the built-in timer of =- 8 seconds has passed).

    wake by motion
    reading motion
    0
    going to sleep now.
    

    The use of wake comes from this topic and the API.
    Any suggestions or does someone see what I missed?

    Thanks alot!


  • Plugin Developer

    @BastienVH

    You have two calls to sleep function. You're checking the return value of the first call but not the second. So when waking after the second sleep, it will just go back to sleep again. If it wakes again, now it will check the return value and takeaction. Then it repeats in this way, every other wake doing nothing but sleeping again.

    Just remove the last call to sleep, if you're fine with going to sleep immediately in the loop.



  • @martinhjelmare
    Ok, I didn't know that declaring the int wake as the reply from gw.sleep would actually make the node go to sleep again.
    I've now setup my loop like this and it appears to work:

    void loop()
    {
      int wake = gw.sleep(INTERRUPT, CHANGE, SLEEP_TIME);
      Serial.println(wake);
      if (wake > 0) {
        Serial.println("wake by motion");
        Serial.println("reading motion");
        motion();
      }
      else {
        Serial.println("wake by timer");
        Serial.println("reading motion");
        motion();
        Serial.println("reading temp/hum");
        humTemp();
      }
      Serial.println("going to sleep now.");
    }
    

    Only thing is, I only get my first temp/hum/motion data AFTER the node has been in sleeping for SLEEPTIME.
    Could I put a command to read motion and temp/hum in my setup or is that bad coding ettiquette?

    PS: Thanks martin for being such a helpful member!
    I feel like your everyones personal debugger!


  • Plugin Developer

    @BastienVH

    Yes you could call your sensor functions in the end of setup. Another way would be to move the sleep call to the end of the loop, but then you should initialize wake outside the loop before setup and give it a value that will make it call the sensor functions, when the program enters the loop.



  • @martinhjelmare
    Great, thanks.

    The sketch now works as it should.
    Below is the finished sketch.
    I also added a counter so that after 10 consecutive interrupts from the motion sensor, the temp and hum get read and transmited. (motion-on generates an interrupt and motion-off generates an interrupt, so it's actually 5 motion triggers)
    Otherwise if there is a lot of movement during a certain timeframe (mornings), hum and temp won't be measured.

    Later I will edit the sketch to have all transmits together to save more battery power.

    Here's the sketch:
