Continuing the discussion from HA Solar Tracker:
Nice project…I was trying to set up a solar tracker with Ha,but had problem with N/S,because Ha dont use - for south and + for North.
So i went for another Arduino solution,but i can send Rest command by HA to the tracker to control it…for example Wind Parking…or shadow parking using an external light sensor.
I my project I use an Esp32 ,a gyro and a RTC module with battery to save setting when no electricity.
Annoied from Dupont Cable i decide to create and print an Esp32 board with a Gyro and Rtc Module connector,so they can be replaced and use different Gyro model,have external I2c pin to connect Gps or Lcd screen…and have Terminal screw for better safety.
Input Voltage 12 or 24 volt…
This board can be used also with your project to make things more easy and reliable.
I post a pic,if can help.
Hy. Where can i biy this yracker controller?
I sell on Ebay ,but now is sold out.New boards will be ready in 30 days.If you need you can contact me by message.
Soon will be ready new Tracker version ,with deepswitch to select 3.3V or 5V imput for Wind Speed …I also add Shadow Parking funtion and Mqtt send data to Homeassistant…The board can be used also with Homeassistant software.
Hi, is the new version available ? I would try one ![]()
Pls. let me know, where and when to buy
thx
Hi,yes i have new version available already…but now i m not in my country…i will go back in 15 days.Please write me in 15 days.
Thank you
Hi, are you back in your country ? I am still interrested in your new version …
Regards
Hi…new board and new software are ready.
New Board and software are ready.I put on Ebay:Solar Tracker 2 or 1 Axix Gps Tracking System WiFi Control App Shadow Park set.
This software version have new Shadow Park function:
Es:if in the morning you have shadow on the panel,you can set a different angle and set the time tracker must keep that angle…after that time tracker will return on the original tracking position.
This board have a connector for SH1106Wire display with this pins, in order: SDA-SCL-GND-3.3V.
hello,
is there a runing / finish HA project?
would like to use this device for my f… ecoflow system
the ecoflow has no limit switch? how is your system working?
kind regards
This board runs on my software,not Ha…but you can load it if you need.
You can inport my Tracker web UI in homeassistant and control it from HA.
You can set Maximum and Minimum angle for both axix.This function act as a limit switch.
You can easily use it with the actuators you already have; the stroke isn’t much, and the actuators have internal limit switches in the fully closed and fully open positions, so you don’t risk damaging them.
I use it from 2021 and is working perfectly.
The important think is to position the Tracker board not near AC wires and Iron beams,because electromagnetic fields can interfere with gyroscope.
Have model without Lcd : Ci scusiamo per l'interruzione.
and with Lcd : Ci scusiamo per l'interruzione.
THANK YOU FOR THE EXPLANATION.
It’s also great if it works without HA ![]()
One piece has been ordered.
