if typo then no calculation

I have checked typo 100 times....i just copy and pasted IDX 501 is the Incemental counter and IDX 502 dummy waterflow.

Code: Select all

On System#Boot do     							// When the ESP boots, do
   TaskValueSet 4,1,0							// TaskValueSet TASKnr,VARnr,Value, Reset the Liters counter to 0
   TaskValueSet 4,2,0							// Previous Counter used for memory 
   TimerSet,1,60      								// Set Timer 1 for the next event in 60 seconds
EndOn
 
On Watermeter#Count do						// When Pulse is detected
	if [Watermeter#Count] > 0
		TaskValueSet 4,1,[Watermeter#Count]		// Set the Pulse to the Liters dummy sensor
	endif
EndOn

on Rules#Timer=1 do  							// When Timer 1 expires, do
	if [Liters#Liters] > 0 or [Liters#Previous] > 0		// Only send value if amount of Liters > 0 else 'keep the change ;-)'
		SendToHTTP 192.168.1.XX,XX,/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=502&nvalue=0&svalue=[Liters#Liters]
		TaskValueSet 4,2,[Liters#Liters]
		TaskValueSet 4,1,0						// TaskValueSet TASKnr,VARnr,Value, Reset submitted Liters counter to 0
	endif
	TimerSet,1,60      							// Set Timer 1 for the next event in 60 seconds
endon

Question Why are you using:

Code: Select all

		TaskValueSet 4,2,[Liters#Liters]
		TaskValueSet 4,1,0

It seems your liters device is not at device number 4 but number 2 ?

Ow mannn the lights has come on..... i am not a programmer but now you gave that hint i understand the TasksetValueSet. Again something learned.
Thanks!!!

All this is very nice, I am using incremental counter for energy consumption for my el. floor heating thermostat.
I am sending values the same way. ( many of them per day ).
BUT.
Now I have got new sensor - water tank level and consumption measuring.
And because I only send one to two values a day, I found wrong function for incremental counter.
You can see here:

Please, does anyone know why I have ESP in "Generic - Dummy Device / Liters"
one VALUES item??
How can I add more?
The m3 measurement already works perfectly.

OK then!

hello,

this thread is really very good and has helped me a lot with my project.
i used a proximity sensor LJ18A3-4-Z-BX instead of the infrared sensor TCRT5000. This works very well.

@sincze: thanks a lot for the waterflow script. that works decent too. but i have a question about that and maybe someone can help me:

The waterflow counter (dummy device in ESPEasy and domoticz) always stays at the last value, even if no water is running.

: water1.png (8.03 KiB) Viewed 3686 times

: water2.png (9.76 KiB) Viewed 3686 times

in line 17 the counter is actually reset, isn't it?
(TaskValueSet 2,1,0)

Code: Select all

On System#Boot do     							// When the ESP boots, do
   TaskValueSet 2,1,0							// TaskValueSet TASKnr,VARnr,Value, Reset the Liters counter to 0
   TaskValueSet 2,2,0							// Previous Counter used for memory 
   TimerSet,1,60      								// Set Timer 1 for the next event in 60 seconds
EndOn
 
On Watermeter#Count do							// When Pulse is detected
	if [Watermeter#Count] > 0
	   TaskValueSet 2,1,[Watermeter#Count]		// Set the Pulse to the Liters dummy sensor
	endif
EndOn

on Rules#Timer=1 do  							// When Timer 1 expires, do
	if [Liters#Liters] > 0 or [Liters#Previous] > 0		// Only send value if amount of Liters > 0 else 'keep the change ;-)'
		SendToHTTP 192.168.0.xx:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=651&nvalue=0&svalue=[Liters#Liters]
		TaskValueSet 2,2,[Liters#Liters]
		TaskValueSet 2,1,0						// TaskValueSet TASKnr,VARnr,Value, Reset submitted Liters counter to 0
    	endif
       TimerSet,1,60      						// Set Timer 1 for the next event in 60 seconds
endon

Hopefully someone knows advice

many greetings

Hi,

Maybe the issue is that in your screenshot the counter is called "Liter", and in script you use "Liters"?

Code: Select all

[Liters#Liters]

excellently spotted.

I am such a dork

thank you very much for the help.
After the change and a reboot the correct values are displayed in the log and the variables are filled correctly.
However, I now have a very strange error message and nothing is transferred to domoticz:

: water3.png (64.4 KiB) Viewed 3677 times

the rules state it correctly

Code: Select all

on Rules#Timer=1 do  							// When Timer 1 expires, do
	if [Liters#Liters] > 0 or [Liters#Previous] > 0		// Only send value if amount of Liters > 0 else 'keep the change ;-)'
		SendToHTTP 192.168.0.23:8080/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=651&nvalue=0&svalue=[Liters#Liters]
		TaskValueSet 2,2,[Liters#Liters]
		TaskValueSet 2,1,0						// TaskValueSet TASKnr,VARnr,Value, Reset submitted Liters counter to 0
        endif
       TimerSet,1,60      							// Set Timer 1 for the next event in 60 seconds
endon

another misspelling?

i have already created a new ruleset, re-entered the command, turned rules off and on again, rebooted. nothing changes this message. as soon as values are to be transferred this error comes up....

I figured out that the SendToHTTP command is not necessary.
the value is already sent to the stored controller via HTTP. in the dummy sensor the IDX is specified.

I have removed the line and it runs quite well so far.

Uh, well ... actually ... yes

I see you fixed it without the SendToHTTP, which is also good.
But if you want to use SendToHTTP again, the syntax is like:

Code: Select all

SendToHTTP 192.168.0.23,8080,/json.htm?type=command&param=udevice&idx=651&nvalue=0&svalue=[Liters#Liters]

this is so diabolical

Remember that you need an additional device to do the counting!

Hi sincze & sorry for resuscitating this old post.

I followed your good guidelines, but noticed that your ESPEasy code only send actual water usage data to Domoticz. Did you have add data for water flow, i.e. liters per minutes?

Thanks

Posted: **Thursday 02 September 2021 16:00**

Yes every minute I send the used amount of liters (= volume).
In domoticz I add that amount to the watermeter value for the total counter to be increased.

Posted: **Friday 03 September 2021 16:42**

I recently switched from using a prox (hall sensor) to this infrared version.
At first the counts were off but after changing settings, the reading is now accurate.
Settings are in the attachment.

I am using espeasy on a nodemcu v2 to read the sensor.
