Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

GlennNZ: could you try this version:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/a7s6bc3rd6lc7id/piBeacon.indigoPlugin.zip?dl=1

It should have the gpioinput and the beacon error fixed..

Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

Hi Karl.

I just lost the ability to edit rPi devices with the latest version from the plugin store. Downgrading to 313 and I could edit again.

This is the error message I got.

Error (client) runDialogForDevice() caught exception: PAXDialogControllerError -- Field ID sleepAfterBootLabel was already used. Every <Field> element must have a unique field ID.

piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

I know. If have a fix ready but need to get it to github

Normally I do teamviewer session to my mac at home and then do the github stuff. But this time I switched off my mouse and it appears that now the mouse is not usable when dialing in remotely.

Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

got a RDlidar sensor. Those are laser distance sensors that spin around and give a 2 d view of distance of objects (and walls) to the sensor.

The seems to be promising: it can measure when i walk to or from or sideways of it, sees me waving my hand . .. sees direction

Positioning this in the middle of the room (that will be a problem) would allow a nice view of the complete room = measure any movement .. but limited to one height.

The key measurement is: if for n contigous angles the sum(distance_values) > x or < -x . ==> then there is movement
This can be done for current value vs last value or current value vs empty room value. Thats shows permanent changes, not movement

These are better than the PIR / ultrasound / microwave sensor as they show more details and direction.

will try to add this to piBeacon.

Goal is to combine several sensor type to determine presence


anyway... wanted to share my excitement

Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

here the first plot with the RD-lidar sensor.
Indicated is the area with movement = hand waving .. and a clear trigger is generated on the RPI with the previously mentioned approach
the green is the "empty room" = calibration , the red is the snapshot at time of movement

some of the red dots do not show as they are below the green dots

Karl

ps the room really looks like this, lots of stuff in there -- my lab
and the sensor is with one side to the wall = no signal
and it does not get signals back on some surfaces

Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

It’s almost ready ...

Fine tuning the image options

And calibration action

And No soldering needed

Karl.

Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

Karl,

after installing the newest plugin version (7.114.322) I have all the time the message(s) below in the log:

Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

Did the Ip number of your rpi change?
Do you have WiFi and Ethernet on the rpi?

[EDIT]
after looking at the code:
This is a warning that an RPI -ip number is unknown.
This is a filter to reject any messages from unregistered IP#'s (= not registered in the plugin as an RPI in RPI setup)

Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

No, the IP didn‘t changed, same as before.
The Pi is connected via WiFi.
I will try to reboot the Pi.

Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

Karl,
ok.

1. Pi was reachable on the network.
2. But, to be sure, rebooted the Pi.
3. Initial Setup done &/saved (but didn't sent any config again to the Pi).

Seems so, that the errors disappeared, I will keep an eye on it.

Thanks,
yassi

piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

The only away that warning shows up is when the registered ip# in the plugin is not the same as the one received from the rpi

I had it that an rpi had 2 ip# and was reachable on the registered but was sending on the other. ..

That might be an dhcp problem.


Karl.

Re: piBeacon: presence monitoring plugin discussions

Ok.

In my case, there is only one rPi and it’s only connected via WiFi.

But, no errors since yesterday, so it should be fine now.

Hi Karl

Hope all is well and you are surviving the world we find ourselves in... :shock:


Had an issue with rpi, replaced SD card, added fan (thought was overheating) Well was overheating, in a sealed box but may be more to it. Replaced SD card with new Buster image.

Had the above error on startup - missing the G from G.timezones in line 1288, piBeaconUtils. Changed, Added that and now working on this error:

Thanks

The /etc/init.d/ntp seems relevant as never seems to correctly change timezone, raspi-config timezone set same as Mac as instructed.

Edit:

Did manage to Apt-get ntp - which seems to have fixed the Timezone error... (was the buster pibeacon image)
Still getting the stopBLE file not found error though.. will create a file so-named and see what happens...



Seems all good after those changes!
