Domoticz

Hello everyone !

I start on Domoticz

I want to use Domoticz like an acquisition card

i use arduino Uno or Nano (mega 328P) and FS1000A like a sensor

i want to transmit many variable

For my first test i have install "Oregon" sketch on arduino (i find on web, for simulate température sensor oregon with arduino)

Because i havn't température sensor for wiring on my arduino i use variable

On domoticz i see my sensor see picture

setup device :
on my arduino code, i have duplicate code when send temperature on 433mhz and i have change ID(BC20 and BB20) so i can transmit different variable

temperature :
see max is 150.5°(150° on image) (if i ad a value more than 150.5, the real value are not displayed)

Graph :
see, i change variable on arduino code and value change on domoticz

Now if my explanation is understand

If it's possible ( i'm automatician, i know « c » language but other language a little, i understand the structure of code)

I want transmit value more big, if i can send a float variable, i can send a integer variable ?
And after is possible i want to create a widget for différents value because value is not a temperature, is it possible to create an universal widget ?

Today the code on arduino transmit trame same like oregon temperature sensor, so i can modify to transmit different data but i don't know the principe of 433mhz, if anyone can explain frame for Domoticz understand the message, i can code for adapt different value because for exemple, i don't want transmit battery level

finally, i want to transmit value with 433mhz on arduino to domoticz on after i want to observe graph with different variable on the same graph

If anyone can help me or redirect me where i must post my explanation

If you want more explanation i can

Very thanks

Tom

second and third picture, sorry

Hi

Please it's possible to redirect my demand, i don't find in forum

I want to add this function (universal arduino transmitter) on Domoticz

I can edite the source code, i know "C" language but i can adapt for an other language

it's a real good idea because after we can create a sensor with arduino and it's very open and adjustable to return any variables in Domoticz

I think this has already been done by someone, I must not be the only one to have this idea

Please help me

Thanks

Thomas

Why not use espeasy instead of the arduino ? I think it would be easier for you to use.

Thanks Rainman

I don't know this, i check it

If i understand espeasy is a devellopement board with wifi ?

I want use arduino because i have create little machines with arduino, like a pellet stove, a chicken automated parc with automatic door, food, light and water

I want use domoticz to save data instantly and see curve for my pellet stove
i want to transmit (i have this value on arduino) :
-exterior temperature
-interior temperature
-fire temperature (value are more than 150°)
-pellet consumption
-wind speed

Because i have devellopped on arduino, i want to carry on with this because i'm very satisfy, i have never bug when my program is good, I have confidence in the material

And i like 433mhz because very low power consumption and i just want to send value, no communication, like a supervision

433mhz is very simply structure protocol, i just need where in domoticz i can create my own sensor, i have download source code, i have start search but if a domoticz moderator can explain me where is implemented "Lacrosse TX3", i can copy and modify for adapt to my need
and after is good i can create an add for all people we use Domoticz, if moderator want

Please i want to code

Ok, then I suggest you look into Mysensors, which is also easy to combine with Domoticz.

https://www.mysensors.org/about/iot

I agree with Rainman, take a look at MySensors project (https://www.mysensors.org/). It will save you a lot of time implementing all kind of sensors, even low power sensors. I use it myself and it works great

Thanks Rainman and SweetPants

I have check website of mysensor

And i have recheck esp8266, you have reason

For my need it's more simple to use esp because is implemented in domoticz

I have check source code of rflink and domoticz and you have reason, for add my need, i must modify rflink and domoticz source code

so i have buy esp 01-s for connect to my arduino and transmit value

Very Thanks

I come to you when i have run connection between domoticz and esp

Have a great day

Thomas

MySensors is also implemented in Domoticz. If you want low power sensors, ESP is not suited for that

ESPEasy is a custom opensource firmware for ESP8266 & ESP32. It has a nice webGUI for settings and sensor-setup.
https://github.com/letscontrolit/ESPEasy

There are an Arduino fork for Mega with Ethernet Shield:
https://github.com/letscontrolit/ArduinoEasy
Now it is a little obsolote, last update was ~2017.

I've forked it and patched to compile with cheap STM32 cores (128-256Kb flash) + W5500 LAN:
https://github.com/enesbcs/ArduinoEasy
There are some controllers inside the code for sending HTTP/MQTT data to Domoticz in case you need something similar.

I've found a very little fork for Arduino Nano: (but most functions missing)
