GreenIQ - Model B - Irrigation and PiBeacon
Re: GreenIQ - Model B - Irrigation and PiBeacon
so a RPI 1?
the only difference between sending direct gpis commands and sprinkler is that the sprinkler sends several commands
1. switch off all relays
2. switch on the new relay(s)
when you do a single gpio command, just one command is send (switch relay on /off)
it looks as if it takes ~ 8 secs between each of the steps receive, exec setgpio.
will look into it
if could do
top
on the rip and check how busy the RPi is

Re: GreenIQ - Model B - Irrigation and PiBeacon
According to here its a rev 2 but yes its an old one. https://www.raspberrypi-spy.co.uk/2012/ ... d-version/
Top shows 9-20% cpu most of the time but when i send a sprinkler action it foes as high as 90% cpu.
If it is because its a old board/slow cpu then I can certainly live with an approx 20 second delay. Its only because im reusing the now defunct greeniq that im even entertaining this pi.. all my others are zerow’s or in some cases pi 3. The header board for the GreenIQ is the small gpio header so dont have many upgrade options even if i wanted to swap it out.
If there is an easy optimisation then great but 20 seconds for what is usually scheduled anyway is fine by me now it turns off

Re: GreenIQ - Model B - Irrigation and PiBeacon
yes it looks as if the rpi1 is backlogged by the tasks..
there are the following tasks running:
1. ONE receiveCommands
1 execommmands for each command received
1 setGPIO or other commands for each command managed by execCommands
that can be 16 temp processes for 8 relays.
it was setup to:
receive commands as fast as possible, launch a management program (exe commands) to take care of execution and not keep receive commands busy
I could incorporate setgGPIO into exe commands, that would cut delay in half. But in setGPIO there are potential waits in teh commands. so before I do that I need to understand all the other consequences.
so if 15 secs delay for the sprinkle is not a problem .. this is then lower priority.

Re: GreenIQ - Model B - Irrigation and PiBeacon
actually it was not so complicated..
Have a version ready that skips setGPIO and does it in execcommands
if you like to test it. it should cut down the delay from 15 to < 8 secs on your RPI1
if you like to try:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/eydnqjyobysau ... n.zip?dl=1
after you test I will publish

Added features / changes in v7.103.276 @ 2019-05-07
===================================================
1. moved setGPIO command into execcommands. that reduces delay with older RPI ie RPI1
2. now all pibeacon logfiles on the RPI are in ONE file: /var/log/piBeacon.log
it looks like:

I have installed and tested remotely so assume the valves are doing what they do
So looks like its down to 8 - 10 seconds on this old Pi! Thanks!

Re: GreenIQ - Model B - Irrigation and PiBeacon
ok thanks
will publish the official version
added: when 2 commands for the same GPIO are send in sequence ( eg pulse up for 600 secs; then indigo/ user sends a down after 30 secs ) , the first one is still active.
Now the second will cancel the first and then execute.
setGPIO did that (cancel itself in previous process) , and now execcommands will do it too.

will publish the official version
added: when 2 commands for the same GPIO are send in sequence ( eg pulse up for 600 secs; then indigo/ user sends a down after 30 secs ) , the first one is still active.
Now the second will cancel the first and then execute.
setGPIO did that (cancel itself in previous process) , and now execcommands will do it too.
