Analog sensor sends group of mqtt messages at a time #7

Closed pramodag closed 6 years ago

pramodag commented 7 years ago

The analog function used to read data from an analog device sends a bunch of MQTT messages at once and then there is a delay in sending next consequent messages. It behaves like working in buffer mode. Have tried to limit the number of messages using precision and also treating it as a digital sensor, But the behavior is same in all cases.

Which analog sensor where you using and what type was the pi, you ran ulnoiot on? It behaves nicely here with the water sensor, so I am not actually sure what happened on your end.

I was using photoresistor connected to pi Zero. There were 4 Wemos connected to the Pi over Wifi.

Yes it's something like that, you can just increase the precision value of the analog sensor, then it sends less often messages - there should maybe be an offer to just compute the average of the last values and reduce the number. Keeping this here open until I get around to it.
