Irrigation System ESP8862 02+Easyiot Server. Help!

7 years 1 month ago #3744 by Alan Sales
Hello guys
First of all I would like to thank those responsible for this site, I am not very knowledgeable in programming and lately I have found many answers here.
I am recently trying to develop an automatic irrigation system for my plants based on the example iot-playground.com/blog/2-uncategorised/...nt-irrigation-system . It has worked very well, however since I am using a 12v pump inside a reservoir I had to include a level sensor for the reservoir, I only need to indicate the empty reservoir and that this sensor turns off the pump to not work dry.
I can already include a node but I can not tell if the reservoir is empty or full.
Below is the code I used as a basis and the small changes I made to the inclusion of the level.

Humidity sensor

I will update the post as I progress.


Connect water level sensor with one DI Arduino pin. In code check state of this DI pin if water level is low then do not switch on motor.

Thanks for the answer. The logic with the Arduino and the level sensor is quiet, I was able to implement without major problems, my biggest difficulty is in the graphic representation of the command on the web page.
I even managed to implement the module, but I can not indicate the status from ON to OFF.
ON = Reservoir Full.
OFF = Empty Reservoir
Can you indicate if I'm on the right track?
Here's a snippet of code:

I created two more states for high and low levels.
"// irrigator state
typedef enum {
s_idle = 0, // irrigation idle
s_irrigation_start = 1, // start irrigation
s_irrigation = 2, // irrigate
s_irrigation_stop = 3, // irrigation stop
s_nivel_alto = 4, // Nivel Alto
s_nivel_baixo = 5, // Nivel Baixo

} e_state;"

Then I implemented two more cases in the machine state.

" }
break;
case s_irrigation_start:
irrigatorCounter = 0;
digitalWrite(MOTOR_PUMP_PIN, HIGH);
esp.send(msgMotorPump.set((uint8_t)1));

//esp.send(msgNivel.set((uint8_t)0));
//digitalWrite(TANK_LEVAL_PIN,LOW);

state = s_irrigation;
break;
case s_irrigation:
if (irrigatorCounter++ > IRRIGATION_TIME)
state = s_irrigation_stop;
break;
case s_irrigation_stop:
irrigatorCounter = 0;
state = s_idle;
esp.send(msgMotorPump.set((uint8_t)0));
digitalWrite(MOTOR_PUMP_PIN, LOW);
break;
case s_nivel_alto:
irrigatorCounter = 0;
state = s_irrigation;
nivel = 0;
esp.send(msgNivel.set((uint8_t)0));
digitalWrite(TANK_LEVAL_PIN,HIGH);
break;
case s_nivel_baixo:
irrigatorCounter = 0;
nivel = 1;
esp.send(msgNivel.set((uint8_t)1));
digitalWrite(TANK_LEVAL_PIN,LOW);
state = s_irrigation_stop;
break;
}
}
} "

The changes did not result in a change in the status of ON to OFF.
