Hello all,
This is my first post. Amazing work done here! Congratulations!
I am developing a new board based on emonTX. It will be in sleep mode most part of the time to save energy because it is powered by a battery. For this, I am using “Sleepy::loseSomeTime();” function from JeeLib.h library in the loop. This works perfect.
The problem is when I implement an external interrupt and I want to send an RF message when it occurs. The software gets stuck at runtime and no clue what it is happening…
Here is a simple code of the Atmega168:
#include <JeeLib.h>
// ------------------- RF setup ----------------------
#define freq RF12_868MHZ
const int nodeID = 1; // emonTx RFM12B node ID
const int networkGroup = 7; // emonTx RFM12B wireless network group
unsigned long lastsendtime = 0;
unsigned long sendinterval = 2000; // milliseconds
// ----------------- Data setup ---------------------
typedef struct {
bool door_open : 1;
int batery_level; // in mV
} Tx_struct; // data for RF comms
Tx_struct tx_data;
// ----------------- Interrupt setup ---------------------
ISR(WDT_vect) { Sleepy::watchdogEvent(); } // Setup the watchdog
const byte interruptPin = 3; // INT1 --> digital pin 3 for interruption (hall sensor)
void setup() {
delay(20);
rf12_initialize(nodeID, freq, networkGroup); // initialize RF
rf12_sleep(RF12_SLEEP);
attachInterrupt(digitalPinToInterrupt(interruptPin), interrupt_, RISING); //door open interrupt
Serial.begin(57600); // initialize Serial interface
Serial.println();
Serial.println("---------------------------------------");
Serial.println("Nodo de detección de apertura de puerta");
Serial.println("Nodo 1 en red 7 a 868Mhz");
Serial.println("---------------------------------------");
delay(100);
tx_data.door_open = 1;
tx_data.batery_level = 77;
}
void loop() {
//Sleepy::powerDown();
Sleepy::loseSomeTime(2000);
Serial.println(tx_data.door_open);
Serial.flush();
}
void interrupt_()
{
Serial.println("Sending data...");
Serial.flush();
send_rf_data(); //Send the data --> If I uncomment this, the software works perfect
}
void send_rf_data()
{
rf12_sleep(RF12_WAKEUP);
// if ready to send + exit route if it gets stuck
int i = 0;
while (!rf12_canSend() && i<10)
{
rf12_recvDone();
i++;
}
rf12_sendStart(2, &tx_data, sizeof tx_data);
rf12_sendWait(2);
rf12_sleep(RF12_SLEEP);
}
Thank you in advance for your time!!
Regards!
David.
PD: I made a new post because I could not find something related with my problem.
