bme280 sensor missing/combining/domoticz heartbeat and battery level



  • Re: BME280 temp/humidity/pressure sensor
    Re2: DS18B20 ans SHT31-D show up as combined sensors on Domoticz
    Re3: Heartbeat working or not?

    I'm trying to make outdoors(now debugging indoors) sleep node with tqfp32 atmega328p internal 8mhz + bme280 + BH1750 (in future battery powered with two lithium AA batteries (not accumulators).
    I'm using Domoticz stable Version 4.9700 (June 23th 2018)
    and MySensors 2.3.0 at nodes and at gateway(almost shure about gateway version)

    Note, that according MYSController (by tekka) all messages and presentations are received and sent normally, so no problems in my pcb, radiochannel and gateway are expected. Only in code order and/or domoticz processing.

    I've faced three problems:


    First is related to combining sensors - i do not fully understand, how to avoid and how to not avoid. To avoid i've tried to change code, so to present humidity before temperature(but not id's), as mentioned in topic: humidity - temperature - pressure. But it didn't helped - temperature and humidity sensors are combined.
    I've also couldn't find topic about combining, mentioned in issue on git by gizmocuz.


    Second might be related to first. I see all presented childs in my node in domoticz hardware. But in devices i'm missing one of them (temp-hum-pres-lux). For code that i will show below - i'm missing pressure. That code uses @sundberg84 order of ID's and order of presenting, taken from his post here because he mentioned that he avoided combining. And what are "red nodes" in domoticz?
    (also i have one boolean and one text - for debugging and to be sure have reboot, it was before i found about smarts sleep "true". Also i have a lot of defines and ifdefs - to easily test this problem - about this later)
    Here is my code at the moment:

    How i tried to test this behaviour:
    (a)comment in code one of (temp-hum-pres) ... start upload in MYSController
    while uploading code to node via MYSController (so node doesn't send any presentation or child data to domoticz)
    i go to domoticz-devices, select all devices realated to this node and in upper left corned press bucket to delete them (to do that i present all sensors with names, starting with "lodjiya", so i can find them by sorting by name. also remember to press "all devices" and choose in upper left to show all, not only 25 devices)
    then i go to hardware-mysensors-setup select node and delete it (or delete only testing childs)
    but domoticz may prevent them from appearing/registering/presentating again, so
    i go to my putty window and do sudo service domoticz.sh restart
    after that code is finished uploading, device reboots, present nodes, send first-time data for each sensor.
    then i checked and printsreened domoticz list of this node childs (that they all appeared and send their data, confirm identical for all last seen time) and same for list of devices
    (b)then uncomment sensor that was commented, and upload code (so "new" child-sensor will present himself and sent his data after upload and reboot while other sensors already present in domoticz system)
    after doing checking and printscreenenig i go and comment next one of (temp-hum-pres) and start from beginning

    Also i tested case without commenting any sensor (all appear at once after domoticz restart)

    ID's: lux=commented,disabled; p=1; t=2; hum=3; presenting order don't remember, but i think temperature was presented last
    I've got next results: (i have screens, bu will not post them, because it is already big and hard to read post)
    Note: in all cases in hardware all childs were present with all latest data!
    so, below are described DEVICES status only

    1. all sensors: t+h not combined, because temperature is missed in devices, h and p present
    2. p+h: a)ok b) t is missed, so nothing combined, p+h still present
    3. p+t: a)ok b) h is missed, so nothing combined, p+t still present
    4. t+h: a)ok b) p is missed, t+h still present and still combined (as one temp sensor and temp+hum WTGR800 device)

    so in all cases i always miss one of (temp-hum-pres), even if i tried to present to domoticz later


    Third is related to sendHeartbeat or sendbatterylevel without sending any sensors data or having no sensors.
    I've asked in old closed issue here (there is something about workaround after issue was closed, but i wasn't able to find in commits).
    So i've opened new issue, and i think i must look at line 470 which is called at line 1819 but i see only 12 types.
    And i do not understand if it is possible to update only node (first table) last seen time and/or #255 child (second table in hardware in domoticz in mysensors setup).
    If send no sensor data, but only heartbeat (with wait or with smartsleep) - node and childs will not update "last seen". Nor wait neither smart sleep. Only on presentation (without sending sensor data).
    Same for battery level if i send only battery level without any sensors data it seems not to update nor last seen neither battery level. Nor wait neither smart sleep. Only on presentation (if i do not send sensor data)...
    Function is called at line 1797 looks like must update all childs...
