skaronator / esp8266-load-cell Goto Github PK

I have all running, i added a scale set option since when i restart i would not be in bed ;)

Problem is it sometimes just 'dies'. When that happens it restarts dumping errors on the screen before restarting. Somtimes it works for a long time and sometimes it just goes into the reboot phase.

Is there anything i can do to improve this/debug?

Other then that, the instructions where just fine. Only thing i didn't know was that you need the molds otherwise it doesn't bend correctly. (i was just pressing it for testing, gives weird values)

Hi,

thanks for your great work in porting this bed scale to the ESP platform!
That really made it possible for me to go ahead an make it!

I ran into a problem after uploading your code (with my settings in config.h) to my ESP8266 (Wemos D1 mini)
The serial Monitor is printing out random characters and I dont know why?
I checked the baud rate and tried all the other baud rates (in the serial monitor). It should be 9600 baud since that is written in the code (Serial.begin(9600);).

I made you a big screenshot with hopefully all the info you could need.
Any help is really welcome, thanks!

And one other question:
I used the picture that you can see in the screenshot to attach the sensors to the HX711 (ignore the part on the picture with the arduino).
Is that the correct way to wire them up?

Hi there,

I'm attempting to get my Wemos D1 Mini Pro working with your bed sensor scripts, however after flashing both files I'm getting reboot errors.

I modified config.h to suit my config, should I try it with yours?

I'm really new to the whole ESP8266 thing so please be gentle :)

I have wired it all correctly (I think) SCL -> SCK, SDA -> DT, 5v -> VCC & GND -> GND from ESP to HX711. I followed the diagram provided for the weight sensors to be wired to eachother and back to the HX711.

In the Serial Monitor I get total garbage at 9600 baud, but at 115200 I get this:

ets Jan  8 2013,rst cause:2, boot mode:(3,7)

load 0x4010f000, len 1384, room 16 
tail 8
chksum 0x2d
csum 0x2d
vbb28d4a3
~ld

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Are you using a single load cell or multiple?

Ive tried to load the code on a nodemcu unit as well as a d1 mini and both of them get into a boot loop.

It can connect to wfifi then it disconnects and crashes, every once in a while it might try to connect to MQTT but usually loops before it gets that far

I'm flashing at 11500 as anything slower would fail

Any ideas,

Hello

Can you please show the connection of the load cells to the load cell sensor as well as to the Wemos?

Thank you.

Hello,

I am sorry to ask, but do you have some step by step instructions? I have never done a project like this, but I am desperate to try. I have just ordered all the components you listed.

Sorry for the stupid question, but will I also need an adruino board in addition to the hardware you listed?

Thanks for any help you are able to provide. My goal is to add this bed occupancy sensor to our toddlers bed and then plug into Home Assistant... possibly using the ESPHome component...

Thanks again for any help you can give me

When the MQTT server goes offline and comes back it should re-send the current value.

Hi

I am having issues connecting to WiFi as I have defined all the values undre the wifi settings but yet I cannot connect my esp8266 board to the wifi.

Can someone please define the following for me maybe my address might be incorrect:

Wifi client ip?
Wifi gateway ip?
Wifi subnet ip?
Wifi dns ip?

Thanks.
