Flowmeter plugin for CraftbeerPi

This plugin is for a flowmeter of magnetic hall type. Like this https://www.adafruit.com/product/828. <br>

Update: <br> There is now a reset function on the sensor in GUI so i have removed the custom actor. To use this click on arrow on sensor an choose reset to zero. <br> Please make sure that you have the latest avaliable version of Craftbeerpi from github installed.

<br> <br> This plugin includes sensor, actor(for reseting the sensor) and a custom step.

Use a 10k ohm resistor on sensors signal pin to protect your Pi.

Wire the sensor to the pi: <br> Red -> 5v. <br> Black -> GND. <br> Yellow -> 10k ohm resistor -> GPIO pin.

Add the sensor under System -> Hardware settings -> Sensors -> Flowmeter.

You can choose between following units in System -> Parameter -> flowunit. (Conversion is builtin) <br> Liters. <br> Gallons US. <br> Gallons UK. <br> Quarts. <br>

There is some http api commands avaliable. <br> To get the id of your sensor: http://"ip of pi":5000/api/flowmeter/list_all_sensors <br> For getting the value of sensor: http://"ip of pi:5000api/flowmeter/"sensor id" <br> For reseting the sensors value: http://"ip of pi":5000/api/flowmeter/"sensor id"/reset <br> You have to enter the id of the flowmeter which you can find by using the api command http://"ip of pi":5000/api/flowmeter/list_all_sensors <br> <br> There is a custom step added for the flowmeter. <br> When the step is started it powers on an actor and when it reaches the given volume it powers off the actor and finnishes the step. <br> Configurable values for the step is: <br> Actor 1: Actor 1 thats going to be turned On and Off. <br> Actor 2: Actor 2 thats going to be turned On and Off. ( This is optional you dont have to use it) <br> Sensor: Flowmeter thats going to be used to measure the volume. <br> Volume: How much liquid that should pass before turning off actor. <br> Reset flowmeter when done: Here you can choose if you want the flowmeters value to be set to zero when step is finnished. 1 for yes and 0 for no.
