Re: xPL-Probe-Temp Sensing
A couple of things i forgot to mention
1: Only 1 temp sensor per probe input (this means a total of 16 sensors in
all)
2: The temp sensors can only be read via the serial interface and not the
i/o interface...
In my setup i have the i/o interface connected to homevision via my hv
expander board and xPL-Probe connected to the serial interface.......

Subject: [ukha_xpl] xPL-Probe-Temp Sensing
Hi All
Thought i would mention a little project i have been working on for
a few weeks now..
I currently use the TOM10 board for temp sensing, but thought it would be
nice if my Probe system could also monitor temp sensors as well as video +
led probes....This would save me a cat5 cable in each room ..as i have a
probe zone box currently in each room
First thing i did was surf the net for some asm pic code for the dallas
1820
1 wire temp sensor.
After a frustrating two weeks and trying bits of different codes i have
managed to get my probe system to read the temp sensor...At the moment
though it only has a tolerence of .5degree but hopefully down the track i
can mod the code to get it down to 1/10 degree.....
Some resistor changed was required in the Probe zone box ( and also the
probe hub) , my intension is to make probes 5+6 of each zone box a temp
probe OR standard probe input ..The probe hub will auto detect if a temp
sensor is present....
Next is to order some dallas 1820 sensors and mod my probe system and try
it out ...Still a bit of work to be done............
Tonys xPL-PROBE plugin might require a slight mod as can be seen by the
captured message below it reports the temp as status rather than
current.....
xpl-stat
{
hop=1
source=aec-probe.test
target=*
}
probe.basic
{
zone=test5
probe=probe5
status=20.5 c
}
More Soon
