Auto/manual Mode on Blynk using Wemos D1 mini

[IoTcreator]

Hi Blynker, please help
I am doing a project as below:

• Reading temperature and humidity.
• Control Pump in auto/manual mode on blynk.
  Code:

#define BLYNK_PRINT Serial
#include <Blynk.h>

#include <BlynkSimpleEsp8266.h>
#include "DHTesp.h"

#ifdef ESP32
#pragma message(THIS EXAMPLE IS FOR ESP8266 ONLY!)
#error Select ESP8266 board.
#endif

@IoTcreator please edit your post (using the pencil icon at the bottom) and add triple backticks at the beginning and end of your code so that it displays correctly.
Triple backticks look like this:

Mr. Pete, thanks so much! please advise me about how I can create auto/manual mode, also SelectMode.

[PeteKnight]

I would start by reading this, as your current code breaks every Blynk rule in the book:

Keep your void loop() clean

Once you’ve trestructured your code and have it working correctly then I’d suggest that you re-post your updated code (correctly formatted this time) along with a detailed description of exactly what it is that you’re trying to achieve and what you’ve tried already.

Pete.

[IoTcreator]

Mr.Pete,

• With ManualMode worked well.
• Now I want to make AutoMode as temperature 7 humidity.
• and a select mode for change from auto to manual.

[PeteKnight]

As I said, we look forward to seeing your revised code and detailed description of exactly what it is you are trying to achieve.

Pete.

Dear Mr.Pete,

I’ve given you some advice, which you’ve chosen not to follow, so I’ll take a step back and see if any other forum members want to step in and try to convince you that your void loop is the first thing you need to tackle.

Pete.

[IoTcreator]

Sorry, I am a new member.
if have any problem, please advise me!
thanks so much!

[Amorphous]

I suggest start by doing as Pete says and read the best practices documentation.

It looks like you have declared timer but I don’t see any timers in your code. If you want something to happen every so many milliseconds you should be doing that using timers. You need to get rid of all calls to delay in “Loop()”. That would be a good start.

You also shouldn’t need to do a Blynk.syncAll() in your loop. Typically a sync is only done after the device first connects to Blynk. For example inside of BLYNK_CONNECTED function.

SmartFarm_DeepSleep for ESP32 and ESP8266

I’ve seen many people are still interested in DeepSleep. Just put the SmartFarm_DeepSleep project onto GitHub. The DeepSleep code has been tested several months and very reliable. The water pump is controlled by the soil moist, measured either by preferably capacitive or resistive moist sensor. Please note that the MaxDeepSleep Time in ESP8266 is very short, around 220 minutes or less. This features has been automatically taken care and adjusted in the code. The new features are as folows: …

Thanks so much! I will rework step by step it. I hope that could find what’s wrong and how can I fix the problem.
thanks All
