SpaceStateIndicator
My verry fancy space state indicator broke down, so i tried to recreate it using stuff i had laying around, which was a Wemos D1 R1 arduino clown to which i added a shield with a RGB led. There is also an output to drive a beeper that sounds if the space state changens to 'Open'
Pin Numbering on this board is a bit confusing but this how i did set it up.
Led-Red | pin 7 |
Led-Green | pin 6 |
Led-Blue | pin 5 |
(In this version i did not hookup the beeper anymore, although the software still supports it) The RGB Led is hooked up to the pins using 100 Ohm resistors which offers adequate current to give a clear indication.
In the code provided below the login credentials for your personal wifi router have to be setup. The flashy light sequence "Das blinken das lichtes| shows during startup if everything goes well. The following startup stages are implemented for diagnostics
During startup | All colors will flash once |
During WiFi login | Blue Color flashing Red until login was sucsesfull |
Running | Red, Green or Yellow depending on the SpaceState or Dark on server error. |
Eventualy the Space indicator should show eighter Green for OPEN or Red for closed. If there is a problem in requesting the actual space state, the indicator shows Yellow. And it will remain dark if the server could not be connected.
The SpaceState is requested each 15 seconds, indicated by a show blue flash on the indicator
You can copy the code into a Arduino sketch Select for the board LOLIN(WeMos) D1 R1
If you can't find this board in your Arduino IDE most likely your setup has no support for ESP32 yet. In this case click on File->Preferences And add the following line to 'Additional Boards Manager' https://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json
Then tools->Board->Board manager And perform a update. Afther this, you'd select the WeMos board and compile the sketch
