Accuracy debugging #46

Open SGXander opened 1 month ago

SGXander commented 1 month ago

Just installed my muino and it seems to be updating in 1L increments instead of the expected 100ml increments and also less than measured with a jug from a tap. Can the internal sensors be debugged in the logger to determine why this is happening?

What sensor do you have, and are you aware of the lower update rates to HA, because of the wifi issue with esphome?

SGXander commented 1 month ago

I have yours from here: https://muino.nl/product/smart-water-meter-reader/?v=796834e7a283 stuck to this meter: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/145705013117

It has reset to 0 at around 00:30 and despite two showers and a glass of water this morning it still reads zero on both entities. What is the lower update rate issue with ESPHome?

SGXander commented 1 month ago

it seems to be resetting to 0 all the time, is the entity not supposed to be a reading of total? image

I've repositioned the sensor as close to the dial as possible and it seems to be better but it still produces negative readings: image

SGXander commented 3 weeks ago

is it possible to adjust the lamda to not allow for negative values? I am taking manual readings to figure out whether it is reading negative instead of positive or just false negative values.

Sorry for not getting at your questions earlier. Can you see the logs of the meter itself, or even change log level. I have a feeling the min max function needs to be tuned for your watetmeter

SGXander commented 3 weeks ago

It doesn't report much normally. what is the module name to change log level and I'll set to debug and capture some for you.

Where can I check/set the min max function?
