BME280 temp/humidity/pressure sensor

@signal15
I have this sensor working on Arduino Mini Pro. I am sure you can make it work under ESP8266

signal15

I'm getting some problems compiling the code you provided above. Is this for 1.6 or something? I'm on 1.5, do I need to change some function names?

Ah, looks like I just need to add "gw." in front of all of these functions and "MySensor gw;" just after the includes.

emc2

Ah yes sorry, it's for the dev branch (1.6 or now called 2.0)

signal15

@emc2

Eh, looks like there's a lot more that I have to do to get this working, like moving the presentation into the setup() function.

emc2

If you are using 1.5 probably a lot more.

Easier to install 2.0, compile and upload. It will be compatible with your 1.5 gateway anyway.

signal15

@emc2

Oh, I thought that you had to upgrade the gateway as well. If that's the case, then I'll grab 2.0. Do I just go to the dev branch in github and hit download ZIP?

signal15

Do you have to upgrade the files on the controller to 2.0b as well? I have a vera, and when I added this new sensor on 2.0b, all of my nodes stopped updating and the tiles for them on the Devices screen doesn't list anything about the sensor like it normally does.

I get these errors in the Vera logs:

02	05/06/16 18:54:40.167	Device_Service::MatchupUpnpServices no upnp service for urn:upnp-arduino-cc:serviceId:arduino1 <0x2ac17000>
02	05/06/16 18:54:40.170	Device_Service::MatchupUpnpServices no upnp service for urn:upnp-arduino-cc:serviceId:arduinonode1 <0x2ac17000>
02	05/06/16 18:54:40.171	Device_Service::MatchupUpnpServices no upnp service for urn:upnp-arduino-cc:serviceId:arduinonode1 <0x2ac17000>```

Also, the MySensors parent device disappeared from my Devices page in Vera. If I telnet to my gateway on port 5003, I only see the new sensor reporting as well, not any of my other sensors. Did the 2.0b sensor do something bad to my gateway or the Vera plugin?

Update: I deleted the new devices created from the 2.0b sensor in my Vera. This fixed it so the other node information showed up again, and the MySensors parent device showed up. But, my 1.5 sensors were no longer updating. I restarted them, and they started updating.

If 2.0 sensors are designed to be backwards compatible with a 1.5 gateway and 1.5 controller code, then there's a problem somewhere. Maybe it's with the Vera code. But, like I said, I telneted to port 5003 on my gateway, and the only thing that the gateway was receiving was the data from my 2.0b sensor. Either the gateway was ignoring the 1.5 sensors, or the 1.5 sensors stopped sending for some reason.

Thoughts?

hek

Hmm.. I wonder if this change might have interfered with the Vera plugin.

@hek

Let me know if you make a change and need me to test.

@emc2 or anybody:

Does anyone have a working BME280 mysensors arduino sketch? The code above states include mysensor.h now it is mysensorS.h, so I have renamed, but it won't compile, it says:

In function 'void setup()':

bme280:252: error: 'getConfig' was not declared in this scope

I have a MySensors Gateway USB
Version: 2.1.1 (arduino nano) with Domoticz, and I would like to use the bme280 for a battery powered outdoor temp/humidity/barometer (as DHT22 does not like battery level below 3.3V, and I would run on 2x1.5V AA)

Thanks

emc2

Was modified in 2.1.1, you need to change

metric = getConfig().isMetric;

to

metric = getControllerConfig().isMetric;  // was getConfig().isMetric; before MySensors v2.1.1

anno

Still a lot of errors in this sketch, did take some out but this is still in it:

@emc2 Thanks! With this modification the sketch compiled successfully. Today I had time, so put everything together, and the BME280 works with the 2.4GH radio, temp/hum/pressure all reporting like they should.

Using arduino pro mini, bme280, nrf24, 2XAA Batteries. It reports to the mysensors serial gw, and then shown in domoticz.

@yoshida Hello
You can share your sketch.
Please
I can not make modifications.
I still have a lot of errors.

@yoshida Thank you very much.
As soon as I find time I will check it out.

Yes checked, sketch works.
Thanks yoshida.
Please note that the library BME_MOD-1022.h consists of two parts: file-h, and file cpp.

gohan

I am using the one from adafruit : what's the difference with this other library?

alexsh1

@gohan I have been using both libraries with a chinese module I bought from Aliexpress. I did not notice any differences apart from size and maybe a module address, which you can change in either library.
