Implement Campbell RainVUE10 SDI-12 Precipitation Sensor #416

aufdenkampe · 2022-06-20T12:39:56Z

Implement ModularSensors wrapper for Campbell RainVUE10 SDI-12 Precipitation Sensor with Plastic Funnel.

Using the following Campbell documentation

Brochure: RainVUE10 SDI-12 Precipitation Sensor
Manual: RainVUE-Series SDI-12 Precipitation Sensors

Implementing within the RainVUE branch.

I have this mostly working, but for some reason, ModularSensors isn't properly parsing the Get Measurement response (or something like that):

Here's what I get from Serial Monitor when running the simple_logging_rainvue.ino test sketch with MS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG and MS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG_DEEP defined in the .ini:

@SRGDamia1, any suggestions? I have much less experience with SDI-12 than I do with Modbus.

I just tried also defining MS_SDI12_NON_CONCURRENT in the .ini, even though SDI12 Version: 1.40, just to see if there is a difference, but the measurement response is still not parsed properly:

Similar to above (/EnviroDIY/Arduino-SDI-12/examples/d_simple_logger), but set to run SDI-12 from Mayfly pin 5 (constant 3.3V). Note that this immediately finds the sensor info, whereas it did not find when on switched power.

aufdenkampe · 2022-06-28T12:23:01Z

@SRGDamia1, I'm quite stumped by this. Any suggestions on what I might try?

aufdenkampe · 2022-06-28T12:55:14Z

I've played around with Warm Up and Measurement times, from 0 to 10,000 ms, and tried a 30 ms Extra Wake time.

I've tried concurrent and non-concurrent, and right now I'm playing around with modifying the C! and M! commands in the SDI12Sensors.cpp to alternatives provided in the sensor manual.

None work.

aufdenkampe · 2022-06-28T13:04:55Z

I now have some results, but not yet the ones I need.

I changed the C! command to C1! in SDI12Sensors.cpp, which giving me the following instrument diagnostic info:

Supplyvoltage
Temperature
Sensorlevel
Timesincelastmeasurable precipitation event
Lithiumbatteryvoltage

Here's the serial monitor response.

@gcutrell, do you have any suggestions on what I might try?

SRGDamia1 · 2022-06-28T14:23:11Z

Does example k in the SDI-12 library work?

aufdenkampe · 2022-06-28T14:35:32Z

@SRGDamia1, thanks for the tip!

Example K does not work. Here is the serial monitor response:

gcutrell · 2022-06-28T14:55:20Z

@aufdenkampe @SRGDamia1 I think the issue is in SDI12Sensors.cpp, the program doesn't allow for a zero wait time. I recently discovered this and just added the code below before "if (wait > 0) {" in the concurrent and non-concurrent sections.
//It is possible for wait time to equal 0. To allow program to continue set wait time to 1
if (wait ==0) wait = 1;

aufdenkampe · 2022-06-28T15:28:22Z

@gcutrell, that did it! Thanks!!!

Thanks to suggestion from @gcutrell in #416, comment: #416 (comment)

SRGDamia1 · 2022-06-28T18:53:13Z

Sorry, sloppy on my part. In the startSDI12Measurement the wait is initialized as zero, with the assumption that if the sensor returns a value, it will be set as something other than 0. It would be better to fix the problem in that function rather than in the startSingleMeasurement functions.

aufdenkampe · 2022-06-28T22:30:39Z

@SRGDamia1, thanks for a cleaner solution!

One last interesting thing: all this only works when I define MS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG_DEEP!

If I turn off debugging flags, or only define MS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG, it still doesn't work!

I'm taking off the rest of the week, so I won't be able to sleuth out the cause of this until mid-next week at the earliest.

SRGDamia1 · 2022-06-29T00:48:04Z

There was a bug in the non-concurrent measurement that was making it freeze without the debugging. I found it last week when Shannon needed to deploy some really old 5TM soil sensors. That should be fixed in one of the commits I pushed to your branch from master.

aufdenkampe · 2022-08-02T21:55:30Z

@SRGDamia1, I forgot to follow up and let you know that it all worked, and the station was deployed a couple of days later. Data have been streaming nicely (with a few -9999 values here and there...). See https://monitormywatershed.org/sites/WOODB-Well18/

I'll issue a PR to develop to track progress on cleanup and pulling this in.
