1 day later: the graphs still have wrong dates and show no data. I'm suspecting this is a firmware/software bug. Don't know if it's related to the fact that this Wave Engine is not in a collective.
I've added a few other inputs with various other configs (different 0-10v pin, as flow meters...
Sorry, can't help with your question, but curious - are you already cleaning the sensor? They haven't been out that long, I'm kinda surprised you'd need to clean one already.
I just added 0-10v GENERIC analog input. The input graph has the dates way off (for future posterity, today is Feb 20th):
Is there a way to erase all previous data and get the graph dates correct? Clearing the Local Cache and resetting the device didn't solve the issue.
FYI: The input was...
"I doubt it will supply much current though"
Yup. There's the note that the supply is limited to 150mA total across all ports. I'm aiming to consume ~30mA for a custom sensor and I'm shooting for as much precision as possible. I'm within the power budget, but any supply ripple will directly...
Does anyone know how stable the 5v output voltage is from hydros devices? Is it already regulated? Should it be on downstream devices/peripherals? I haven't scoped it yet (my electronics lab and hydros system are in different rooms) but would love any sort of spec if anyone's got one.
Interesting. In any case, due to the measurement/temperature sensitivity, calibration annoyances, and slow response time when the water level is lowering, these resistive sensors aren't the way to go IMO. I have a better mouse trap in the works ;-)
Addendum: It just occurred to me this also could be a hardware-setup issue. The sensor that is stable is at the back of the sump whereas the one that jumps around is more in the way of things. I wonder if I'm bumping the sensor every now-and-then and very subtly moving around the...
Longer-term follow-up: after several months of using the etape in my setup, I'm not thrilled due to what I assume are temperature issues. I have two strips in use, one is mostly submerged and gives good steady values. The other is maybe 1/3rd submerged, and every now and then jumps by 1-2 cm...
So my overflow, a bean animal style is decently quiet. But, with this idea, it could be SILENT! And the thing holding me back is the lack of an API in Hydros. Hear me out.
Quick review for Bean Animal Overflows (which is what I have): there's a primary drain that should always be 100% full...
