Re: How to make my pool heating system smart
Yay, figured it out!
Gave it 5v instead of 3.3 and all is working now!
Will go into deeper analysis in final results and post back with a final wiring diagram for reference purposes!

Re: How to make my pool heating system smart
Hi, so I've received the new DS18B20. To test things, I brought my board down from the attic, removed the max6675 and wired everything for the DS18B20. In my lab, everything is working great! I even simplified my wiring (no longer need a breadboard) and code to: esphome: name: pool-sensors esp32: bo...

Re: How to make my pool heating system smart
You are right "round(2*x)/2" does indeed work, I thought I tried this but concluded it didn't work, don't know why, Thanks!
And in the meantime have ordered a DS18B20 along with a plugable terminal to make things easier. Will test and report back.
Thanks!

Re: How to make my pool heating system smart
Thanks for your comment and suggestion MicroController, unfortunately I am not sure what you mean (am still learning), however, in a way I am not very much concerned about the voltage fluctuations because I really just need to detect current, versus no current, an ON/OFF signal lets say. One thing t...

Re: How to make my pool heating system smart
Oh boy.... yes, I think that would work...
Amazing how one can overcomplicate.
Thanks!

Re: How to make my pool heating system smart
Thanks. So the return (220-round(x))+round(x); Serves the specific purpose of either giving me a 0 voltage reading, or 220 voltage reading. The thing is that voltage seems to fluctuate, and I was basically just looking for a kind of ON/OFF signal and not an actual voltage reading, so in this case, O...

Re: How to make my pool heating system smart
Hi once again, and thanks again also, as it was a tip in the right direction. I managed to solve the issue with a few pin changes: [*] clk pin = GPIO25 -> GPIO27 [*] Miso pin = GPIO27 -> GPIO19 And code corrections #- platform: max31865 - platform: max6675 name: "Pool Temperature Sensor" cs_pin: GPI...

Re: How to make my pool heating system smart
Wow, fantastic, thanks so much MicroController. I did try everything before, but never managed to convert. Any code is now running, however, I am not getting any readings from my voltage sensor or temperature sensor. [13:21:30][E][max31865:101]: SPI bus read all 0 or all 1 (0x0000), check MAX31865 w...
