[contest] My 4-in1 LED-dimmer/motion/temp-hum sensor



  • Nothing new but just my implementation of great examples found on this forum and made 'my own' 🙂
    A LED-dimmer triggered with a motion-sensor and managed via PLEG on a VeraLite. The box is mounted under my bathtub as floor-lighting. PLEG takes care of the intensity depending on day- or night. The sketch has a watchdog routine for taking care of switching of might there never be an 'off' command coming in from Vera.

  • Very nice, care to post your sketch and parts list? I am looking to add some similar devices in my basement home theater.



  • @NotYetRated
    The components are:

    • Arduino nano
    • DC/DC 3.3V AMS1117-3.3V Power Supply Module
    • 10uF capacitor on 3.3v regulator
    • MosFET 50N06 with 10K pull-down resistor on gate
    • NRF24L01+PA+LNA
    • DHT22 Temp/Humidity Sensor
    • 12v DC wall-wart
    • Motion-sensor HC-SR501
    • Case and piece of perfboard

    The LEDstrip and DHT are connected via 3mm plugs and jacks.
    The DHT and NRF are fed by the 3.3v regulator. The nano and FET are using the raw 12v.

    The sketch:

     * DESCRIPTION
     * This sketch provides a Dimmable LED Light using PWM and based Henrik Ekblad 
     * <henrik.ekblad@gmail.com> Vera Arduino Sensor project.  
     * Developed by Bruce Lacey, inspired by Hek's MySensor's example sketches.
     * 
     * The circuit uses a MOSFET for Pulse-Wave-Modulation to dim the attached LED or LED strip.  
     * The MOSFET Gate pin is connected to Arduino pin 3 (LED_PIN), the MOSFET Drain pin is connected
     * to the LED negative terminal and the MOSFET Source pin is connected to ground.  
     *
     * This sketch is extensible to support more than one MOSFET/PWM dimmer per circuit.
     *
     * REVISION HISTORY
     * Version 1.0  - February 15, 2014 - Bruce Lacey
     * Version 1.1  - August 13, 2014 - Converted to 1.4 (hek) 
     * Version 1.1a - August 14, 2014 - Added MotionSensor (Ed)
     * Version 1.1b - December 22, 2014 - Added DHT-Sensor (Ed)
     * Version 1.1c - December 29, 2014 - Added LED timeout (Ed)
     * Version 1.1d - Januari 4, 2015 - Updated lib to 1.4.1 (Ed)

    The DHT part in the sketch is not in use because I damaged the sensor by using the wrong voltage 😞 but this part is 'standard' code borrowed from the MySensors libraries. The project is a succes in my eyes; the box is not visable ander the bath but the motionsensor is sensitive enough to trigger everytime someone enters the room. The sensor gets untripped after 30 seconds but I have PLEG switch off the LED's 90 seconds after still being untrapped. This way I can change the timeout without opening the box. Only the watchdog part is my doing and I'm the worst coder on this forum so be warned 🙂



  • Finally a new DHT22 arrived from China and now this project is completely finished.

  • Nice work! Thanks for sharing all that you've done.



  • To C4Vette
    How did You manage to display the data of last trip?



  • You have a sharp eye!
    Have a good read at http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php?topic=19263.15
    It is all in there.



  • Hi!
    Nice project, and I'm really interested on it!!
    Unfortunately, when I copy/paste your script, I've an error on line 44 during the check in Arduino 1.6.7 for "MySensor gw(9,10);", the message is:

    error: no matching function for call to 'MySensor::MySensor(int, int)'

    Could you please tell me what could I do to make this script working?
    Thanks for your answer!



  • Small question. I want to try this but some errors. Library is installed with library manager. Ubuntu 16.04 and last Arduino ide.
    First try IDE not find library and i change in line 29 #include <MySensor.h> to #include <MySensors.h> add only s
    and then this error.

    motion_dht22_led_dimmer:44: error: 'MySensor' does not name a type
    MySensor gw(9,10);
