Jsn sr04 ultrazonic sensor - time out - no stable measure

Achille_Sano · September 2, 2024, 10:13am

I’m playing with this sensor for a few weeks now, but I can’t get it to work properly. I’ve checked the connections and tried various configurations. The best I could achieve is some measurements interspersed with timeouts.

The configuration is in mode 1, powered at 5 volts with an ESP8266 OLED. I’m attaching :

MODE 1 working datasheet

Karosm · September 2, 2024, 12:32pm

You link a component but you are using another

Also, don’t use GPIO15 if you have others available, it has pulldown resistor and it’s strapping pin.
And finally, if you power that sensor at 5V, you need level shifters for esp trigger and echo pins.

Achille_Sano · September 2, 2024, 2:04pm

Do u suggest that i change supply 5volt to 3.3volt and change gpio15 ?

I try

Karosm · September 2, 2024, 2:08pm

I suggest to use level shifter, but if you don’t have, try at 3.3V.
Generally, avoid using strapping pins.

Achille_Sano · September 2, 2024, 2:15pm

I dont have shifter i change supply to 3.3v and try green pin:

I write some detail for full project :

Complete Summary of the Mosquito Misting Project with Temperature, Humidity Logic, and Alternative Natural Recipes

This project involves creating an automated misting system for mosquito control, combining monthly chemical treatments with daily natural repellent solutions. The system uses a 12V pump, 12 misting nozzles, and is optimized to maximize effectiveness by considering environmental temperature and humidity variables.

Main Components

12V Diaphragm Pump (5 L/min):

Capacity of 5 liters per minute, controlled via a relay connected to an ESP8266 for automatic activation. Ensures adequate pressure for 12 nozzles along a 30-meter pipe.

Brass Misting Nozzles (0.3 mm):

12 nozzles distributed along the pipe to ensure uniform misting of the solution throughout the area.

ESP8266 with ESPHome:

Manages the automated scheduling of the system, monitors sensors for tank level, temperature, and humidity, and controls the pump activation.

Integrated Sensors:

Ultrasonic Level Sensor (JSN-SR04T): Monitors the liquid level in the tank.
DHT11 Sensor: Monitors ambient temperature and humidity.
Weight Sensor (HX711): Checks the weight of the LPG cylinder or tank.

Mosquito Treatment Solutions:

Monthly Treatment with DEADYNA (Pyrethroid Insecticide).
Daily Treatment with Natural Repellent Solution.

Preparation of the Solutions

Monthly Treatment with DEADYNA

Recommended Dilution: 10 ml of DEADYNA per liter of water.
Solution Preparation:
- Measure 100 ml of DEADYNA.
- Mix with 10 liters of water in a tank.
- Ensure thorough mixing for a uniform solution.
Application Quantity: The prepared solution (10 liters) is sufficient to cover an area of 150 m² (10 liters x 15 m² per liter).

Daily Treatment with Natural Solution

Ingredients for 10 Liters:
- 10 drops of bergamot essential oil.
- 120 ml (1/2 cup) of apple cider vinegar.
- 10 liters of water.
Preparation:
- Mix the ingredients in a container, ensuring they are well blended.
- Pour the mixture into the tank of the misting system.

Alternative Natural Recipes

Solution Based on Citronella Essential Oil and Apple Cider Vinegar

Ingredients:
- 10 drops of citronella essential oil.
- 120 ml (1/2 cup) of apple cider vinegar.
- 10 liters of water.
Preparation:
- Mix citronella oil with apple cider vinegar.
- Add 10 liters of water and mix well.
- Pour the solution into the misting system’s tank.
Benefits: Citronella is a very effective natural mosquito repellent.

Solution Based on Eucalyptus Oil and Neem Oil

Ingredients:
- 10 drops of eucalyptus essential oil.
- 5 ml (1 teaspoon) of neem oil.
- 120 ml (1/2 cup) of apple cider vinegar.
- 10 liters of water.
Preparation:
- Mix the essential oils with apple cider vinegar.
- Add 10 liters of water and mix well.
- Pour the solution into the misting system’s tank.
Benefits: Eucalyptus and neem offer a dual repellent and insecticidal action.

Solution Based on Lavender Oil and Peppermint Oil

Ingredients:
- 10 drops of lavender essential oil.
- 10 drops of peppermint essential oil.
- 120 ml (1/2 cup) of apple cider vinegar.
- 10 liters of water.
Preparation:
- Combine the essential oils with apple cider vinegar.
- Add 10 liters of water and mix well.
- Pour the solution into the misting system’s tank.
Benefits: Pleasant for the human environment but repellent to mosquitoes.

Usage Calendars

Monthly Treatment Calendar with DEADYNA

Frequency: Once a month.
Recommended Time: Night, around 11 PM.
Misting Duration: 1-2 minutes.
- With 10 liters of solution and a flow rate of 5 liters/min, mist for up to 2 minutes to cover the 30 m² area.
Precautions: Ensure the area is clear of people and animals and follow the manufacturer’s safety instructions regarding re-entry time.

Daily Treatment Calendar with Natural Solution

Frequency: Twice a day.
Recommended Times:
- Early Morning: Mist at 6-7 AM for 2 minutes.
- Late Afternoon/Evening: Mist at 6-7 PM for 2 minutes.
Misting Duration: Each misting cycle should last 2 minutes, using about 10 liters of solution to cover the area.

Control Logic Based on Temperature and Humidity

Temperature:

Activate Misting Between 20°C and 30°C: Mosquitoes are most active within this temperature range. Avoid misting below 15°C or above 35°C, when mosquitoes are less active or absent.

Humidity:

Keep Humidity at a Moderate Range: If humidity is too low (below 40%), evaporation is rapid, and misting effectiveness decreases. If humidity is too high (above 70-80%), the dispersion of mist particles is less effective.

Combined Automation:

Set up automations in Home Assistant to activate misting only when the temperature is between 20°C and 30°C and humidity is between 40% and 70%, during daytime hours (6 AM - 9 PM).

Additional Tips

Maintenance: Regularly clean the nozzles and tank to avoid clogging.
Safety: Wear protective gear when preparing and using DEADYNA.
Monitoring: Periodically assess the effectiveness of the strategies and adjust misting parameters based on environmental conditions and mosquito density.

Conclusion

This summary integrates both chemical and natural misting strategies, optimized for effectiveness based on temperature and humidity. The use of different natural recipes offers alternatives for mosquito control, while automation based on environmental conditions ensures a sustainable and targeted approach to pest control.
