environmental-measurement-plugin Environmental Measurement Plugin Settings Environmental Measurement Plugin

Overview

:::caution This is a work in progress and is not yet available. :::

The Environmental Measurement Plugin will allow you to connect climate sensors to report local conditions to your mesh.

Settings

Setting Acceptable Values Default
environmental_measurement_plugin_measurement_enabled true, false false
environmental_measurement_plugin_display_farenheit true, false false
environmental_measurement_plugin_read_error_count_threshold integer 0
environmental_measurement_plugin_recovery_interval integer (seconds) 0
environmental_measurement_plugin_screen_enabled true, false 0
environmental_measurement_plugin_sensor_pin integer 0
environmental_measurement_plugin_sensor_type DHT11 0
environmental_measurement_plugin_update_interval integer (seconds) 0

environmental_measurement_plugin_measurement_enabled

Enables the plugin.

environmental_measurement_plugin_display_farenheit

The sensor is always read in Celsius, but the user can opt to view the temperature display in Farenheit using this setting.

environmental_measurement_plugin_read_error_count_threshold

Sometimes sensor reads can fail. If this happens, we will retry a configurable number of attempts Each attempt will be delayed by the minimum required refresh rate for that sensor

environmental_measurement_plugin_recovery_interval

Sometimes we can end up with more than read_error_count_threshold failures. In this case, we will stop trying to read from the sensor for a while. Wait this long until trying to read from the sensor again

environmental_measurement_plugin_screen_enabled

Enable/Disable the environmental measurement plugin on-device display.

environmental_measurement_plugin_sensor_pin

Specify the preferred GPIO Pin for sensor readings.

environmental_measurement_plugin_sensor_type

Specify the sensor type

environmental_measurement_plugin_update_interval

Interval in seconds of how often we should try to send our measurements to the mesh.
