Problem with relay+button and dallas temperature sketch combination
-
Hello,
I wanted to make a node that both read temperature from 2 dallas sensors and activate a relay (with button option).
It works pretty fine, but only for an undetermined time. Afeter sometime (1 or 2 days), if I push the button, it crahses, and i have to reset it to get the good behaviour. If I don't use the relay features, everything is working normally a long time.
Here is the sketch :#include <MySensor.h> #include <SPI.h> #include <Bounce2.h> #include <DallasTemperature.h> #include <OneWire.h> // Partie Température #define COMPARE_TEMP 1 // Send temperature only if changed? 1 = Yes 0 = No #define ONE_WIRE_BUS 8 // Pin where dallase sensor is connected #define MAX_ATTACHED_DS18B20 16 unsigned long SLEEP_TIME = 30000; // Sleep time between reads (in milliseconds) OneWire oneWire(ONE_WIRE_BUS); // Setup a oneWire instance to communicate with any OneWire devices (not just Maxim/Dallas temperature ICs) DallasTemperature sensors(&oneWire); // Pass the oneWire reference to Dallas Temperature. float lastTemperature[MAX_ATTACHED_DS18B20]; int numSensors=0; boolean receivedConfig = false; boolean metric = true; // Initialize temperature message MyMessage msg(0,V_TEMP); // Partie Relay #define RELAY_PIN 4 // Arduino Digital I/O pinnumber for relay #define BUTTON_PIN 3 // Arduino Digital I/O pin number for button #define CHILD_ID 17 // Id of the sensor child #define RELAY_ON 1 #define RELAY_OFF 0 Bounce debouncer = Bounce(); int oldValue=0; bool state; unsigned long previousMillis = 0; MySensor gw; MyMessage msg2(CHILD_ID,V_LIGHT); void setup() { // Startup up the OneWire library sensors.begin(); // requestTemperatures() will not block current thread sensors.setWaitForConversion(false); gw.begin(incomingMessage, AUTO, true); // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller gw.sendSketchInfo("Relay & Button", "1.0"); gw.sendSketchInfo("Temperature Sensor", "1.1"); // Fetch the number of attached temperature sensors numSensors = sensors.getDeviceCount(); Serial.print(numSensors); Serial.println(" temperature sensors detected"); // Setup the button pinMode(BUTTON_PIN,INPUT); // Activate internal pull-up digitalWrite(BUTTON_PIN,HIGH); // After setting up the button, setup debouncer debouncer.attach(BUTTON_PIN); debouncer.interval(5); // Present all sensors to controller for (int i=0; i<numSensors && i<MAX_ATTACHED_DS18B20; i++) { gw.present(i, S_TEMP); } // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices) gw.present(CHILD_ID, S_LIGHT); // Make sure relays are off when starting up digitalWrite(RELAY_PIN, RELAY_OFF); // Then set relay pins in output mode pinMode(RELAY_PIN, OUTPUT); // Set relay to last known state (using eeprom storage) state = gw.loadState(CHILD_ID); digitalWrite(RELAY_PIN, state?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF); } /* * Example on how to asynchronously check for new messages from gw */ void loop() { gw.process(); // Relay button debouncer.update(); // Get the update value int value = debouncer.read(); if (value != oldValue && value==0) { gw.send(msg2.set(state?false:true), true); // Send new state and request ack back } oldValue = value; // Fetch temperatures from Dallas sensors sensors.requestTemperatures(); // query conversion time and sleep until conversion completed //int16_t conversionTime = sensors.millisToWaitForConversion(sensors.getResolution()); unsigned long currentMillis = millis(); // sleep() call can be replaced by wait() call if node need to process incoming messages (or if node is repeater) // gw.wait(conversionTime); // Read temperatures and send them to controller if (currentMillis - previousMillis >= SLEEP_TIME) { // save the last time you read temperature previousMillis = currentMillis; for (int i=0; i<numSensors && i<MAX_ATTACHED_DS18B20; i++) { // Fetch and round temperature to one decimal float temperature = static_cast<float>(static_cast<int>((gw.getConfig().isMetric?sensors.getTempCByIndex(i):sensors.getTempFByIndex(i)) * 10.)) / 10.; // Only send data if temperature has changed and no error #if COMPARE_TEMP == 1 if (lastTemperature[i] != temperature && temperature != -127.00 && temperature != 85.00) { #else if (temperature != -127.00 && temperature != 85.00) { #endif // Send in the new temperature gw.send(msg.setSensor(i).set(temperature,1)); // Save new temperatures for next compare lastTemperature[i]=temperature; } } } } void incomingMessage(const MyMessage &message) { // We only expect one type of message from controller. But we better check anyway. if (message.isAck()) { Serial.println("This is an ack from gateway"); } if (message.type == V_LIGHT) { // Change relay state state = message.getBool(); digitalWrite(RELAY_PIN, state?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF); // Store state in eeprom gw.saveState(CHILD_ID, state); // Write some debug info Serial.print("Incoming change for sensor:"); Serial.print(message.sensor); Serial.print(", New status: "); Serial.println(message.getBool()); } }You will see it is almost a copy-cut of the sketches available here, but without any sleep or wait, that causes the button not to work...
Anyone see what could be the problem ?
Thanks.

@Mixeur A relay generates a lot of noise on the power lines. Much has been written on this issue on the forum. Try powering the relays from a different voltage regulator and a enough decoupling capacitors on the power lines. Especially the radio needs stable power.

Actually, It is what I did. I use a LM317 to power all 5V devices from a 12V power supply (arduino, relay and ds18b20).
3.3V for the radio is obtained from LM1117 (its input is the LM317). The radio also has a 4.7 uF capacitor on power line. So I'm unsure this is a question of noise on powerlines. Also, issue is only happening after a few undetermined time. I can trigger how many I want the relay with any issue after powering the module, without problem.
It is just a question of time. So I think it can be a software issue, but I don't see anything in my sketch. -
