Bluetooth did'nt connect with iOS - HM-10

[frigo]

Hello,

I want to use the YF-S201 (Hall efect http://www.hobbytronics.co.uk/yf-s201-water-flow-meter ) sensor, but it’s necessary to function to calibrate.

I can insert a code in the sketch and to use the Blynk?

Thank you

Igor

Yes I use this sensor in my Garden Watering system.

Check out my project here: Release Minor fixes and remove SimpleTimer · jaminNZx/Garduino-ESP-Blynk · GitHub

The code you need is here: https://github.com/jaminNZx/Garduino-ESP-Blynk/blob/v0.1.5/functions.h#L48

TL:DR

void setup(){
  // ... insert in to setup
  // FLOW METER
  pulseCount        = 0;
  flowRate          = 0.0;
  flowMilliLitres   = 0;
  totalMilliLitres  = 0;
  attachInterrupt(FLOW_SENSOR, pulseCounter, FALLING);
  // start the timer 
  timer.setInterval(1000, flowSensor);
  // ...
}


/**************************************************************

/*
   pulseCounter() -

void pulseCounter() {
  pulseCount++;

*/
void flowSensor() {
  detachInterrupt(FLOW_SENSOR);
  flowRate = pulseCount / FLOW_CALIBRATION;
  pulseCount = 0;
  attachInterrupt(FLOW_SENSOR, pulseCounter, FALLING);
  //calc totals
  flowMilliLitres = (flowRate / 60) * 1000;
  totalMilliLitres += flowMilliLitres;
  totalMilliLitres_month += flowMilliLitres;
  Blynk.virtualWrite(vPIN_WATER_TOTAL, (float)totalMilliLitres / 1000);
  Blynk.virtualWrite(vPIN_WATER_FLOW,  String((float)flowMilliLitres, 0));
  Blynk.virtualWrite(vPIN_WATER_TOTAL_MONTH, (float)totalMilliLitres_month / 1000);
  waterCost = waterCost + ( ( ( (float)flowMilliLitres / 1000 ) * WATER_PRICE ) / 100);
  Blynk.virtualWrite(vPIN_WATER_COST, String(waterCost, 6));
  waterCost_month = waterCost_month + ( ( ( (float)flowMilliLitres / 1000 ) * WATER_PRICE ) / 100);
  Blynk.virtualWrite(vPIN_WATER_COST_MONTH, String(waterCost_month, 6));
}

"Garduino" - The remote control to your garden

Its Garduino Mark3! I have started work on my garden irrigation system once again. The last time I worked on it was over 6 months ago and my coding skillset has increased a bit. I have re-written the code and in development stages. I’d love it if someone would pick up the project and make some pull requests on Github! Latest code: https://github.com/jaminNZx/Garduino-ESP-Blynk/releases/latest [image][image][image][image][image] (mainly just setting up this thread to link to in the docs)

Yes Blynk can do almost anything. I have the same meter and it’s fine with Blynk. Use it without Blynk first, learn to Blynk and then incorporate the sensor into your Blynk project.

Hello,

Thank you very much! I gonne read your topic later.

Can I connect bluetooth HM-10 to iOS? I tried this connection before and failed.

Tks!

Can I connect bluetooth HM-10 to iOS?

Yes, it should work

[frigo]

Eugene,

I think Blynk App doesn’t work with iPhone bluetooth 4.0 (MH-10). With LightBlue App, iPhone connected successfully.

I tryed to connect with Motorola Moto G2 and dind’t work too, but with LightBlue App, Motorola Moto G2 also worked.

I have tried to format my notebook and it didn’t solve my problem anyway.

Thank you

Igor

Eugene,
I think Blynk App doesn’t work with iPhone bluetooth 4.0 (MH-10).

I have just successfully tested BLE connection using Arduino Uno and HM-10 module with latest iOS Blynk app.
Please check your setup. Refer to this post: A classic one : Arduino + Iphone + nrf8001 - #24 by Eugene
