A daemon, part of Venus, that reads analog sensors info from the adc module and publishes it on dbus. Either as tank level information or temperature readings.
This is a velib project.
Besides on velib, it also depends on:
After cloning, and getting the velib submodule, create the Makefile:
cd software
./ext/velib/mk/init_build.shMore information about this is in velib/doc/README_make.txt
For cross-compiling for a Venus device, see here. And then especially the section about velib projects.
Tank:
com.victronenergy.tank
/analogpinFunc
/Level 0 to 100%
/Remaining m3
/Status 0=Ok; 1=Disconnected; 2=Short circuited; 3=Reverse polarity; 4=Unknown
/Capacity m3
/FluidType 0=Fuel; 1=Fresh water; 2=Waste water; 3=Live well; 4=Oil; 5=Black water (sewage)
/Standard 0=European; 1=USA
Note that the FluidType enumeration is kept in sync with NMEA2000 definitions.Temperature:
com.victronenergy.temperature
/analogpinFunc
/Temperature degrees Celcius
/Status 0=Ok; 1=Disconnected; 2=Short circuited; 3=Reverse polarity; 4=Unknown
/Scale
/Offset
/TemperatureType 0=battery; 1=fridge; 2=genericA configuration file is required in /etc/venus/dbus-adc.conf. The
following directives are used:
| Directive | Description |
|---|---|
| device D | Name of device under /sys/bus/iio/devices |
| vref V | The reference voltage of the ADC as a floating-point number |
| scale S | Maximum value of ADC reading, e.g. 4095 for a 12-bit device |
| tank N | Tank level sensor at ADC input N |
| temp N | Temperature sensor at ADC input N |
| label L | Label for next sensor (optional) |
The device, vref, and scale directives are mandatory and apply to subsequent sensor declarations.
