Hi all,
I am trying to develop a personal project in which I get the soil humidity, temperature and humidity from an external device using the sensor template entity. After some days working I have noticed that when the data read is the same (I perform a read every 5 min) that the last one, this value is not taken into account. I guess that this could be an improvement to save memory but in my case it is something that I would prefer to avoid.
Why could I prefer to “waste” memory? I prefer that to avoid to have the results I got:
As you can see, in the ADC_0 readings (soil sensor) it seems that for a period of time the soil humidity has been growing up progressively but the fact is that it should increase in less than 5 seconds (I put water and it is almost instantaneous).
Is there any possibility to store all the data even it is the same value that the last one?
What I expect is to have as below graph:
Thanks for your help,
Oscar
