Re: IOT_Made_Easy - or not?
There's no power (easily) - it's the loft of an outbuilding. I don't like going up there - a couple of years ago the ladder 'slipped' an inch and snapped my little finger. Now I avoid ladders whenever possible :-( So the longer the battery lasts the happier I am - or maybe I should just go up and do...

Re: IOT_Made_Easy - or not?
Sounds good - I was going to power with 3x1.2V rechargeables as a test (not being able to get lithium batteries in the post is a pain) - I've currently got the board sleeping for 60minutes and seems good. I was hoping for a bit more battery life - and will need less frequent sampling (though now I h...

Re: IOT_Made_Easy - or not?
Almost a holiday - change of air AND time to enjoy a beer! Definitely something a little squiffy with the linking of components - though mostly works well. I'd like to see some hints as to what needs linking too! My temp reader seems to work nicely now up to 150 (2 minute) readings. So now just need...

Re: IOT_Made_Easy - or not?
That seemed to give the necessary final 'piece' of the IOT_MadeEasy jigsaw.. Set the data field string to "channels/CHANNEL_ID/field1" etc This worked - but only for two entries before grinding to a halt again. So back to my code - I noticed that there was a BCN (presumably beacon? (or bacon :-) )) ...

Re: IOT_Made_Easy - or not?
Thanks - no I hadn't. I'll try it too - thanks for the guide. I'm still not sure how to use the iot_madeeasy component - so more experimenting needed

Re: IOT_Made_Easy - or not?
Yes - seems to be limited in some way. Just reached 60 samples and it's stopped ? Will play some more tomorrow. I used the thing speak code from the Arduimo which gave a 'POST' command of: POST /update HTTP/1.1 Host: api.thingspeak.com User-Agent: LoftMonitor X-THINGSPEAKAPIKEY: MyAPIKey Content-Typ...

Re: IOT_Made_Easy - or not?
After a bit more 'fiddling': I couldn't get IOT_MadeEasy to work, nor the MQTT component. So - back to basics with the NetworkComms component. And finally - a working MQTT update from a esp32 (phew) One issue - I had SSID and Password as constants in main - Wifi fails to connect (an issue with strin...
