openWeather – DIY ESP8266 Wetterstation

openWeather – DIY ESP8266 Wetterstation

In letzter Zeit habe ich mich viel mit ESP32 und ESP8266 beschäftigt. Nun hatte ich die Idee für mein Smarthome Set-Up ein paar Temperatur und Feuchtigkeitssensoren in der Wohnung zu verteilen. Damit da nicht einfach nackte Platinen herumliegen, wollte ich ein schickes Gehäuse gestalten, schließlich bin ich ja Industriedesigner. Für die Küche wäre aber direkt eine kleine Wetterstation cool, die auch beim Frühstück anzeigt, wie das Wetter in den nächsten Stunden wird.

So ist das Projekt open.Weather entstanden. Das ganze Projekt habe ich unter der GNU V3 auf GitHub veröffentlicht. Und so sieht das Ergebnis aus:

So sah übrigens meine Konzeptzeichnung aus:

Also ran ans Werk. Wir brauchen folgende Komponenten:

Die Scheibe ist mit dem Lasercutter hergestellt, das Gehäuse ist 3D-gedruckt. Also wäre Zugriff auf beides nicht schlecht, zum Beispiel im regionalen FabLab. Ich habe einen K40 und nutze einen Anycubic i3 Mega.

Konzept

Beim Magic Mirror habe ich ja eine API-Anfrage an Open Weather Map. Wie sich herausstellte, kann man auch direkt vom ESP8266 aus einen http Request stellen. Also kann ich den Wetterbericht aus dem Netz abfragen. Außerdem werde ich die Temperatur und Luftfeuchtigkeit mit dem DHT22 messen. Je nach Werten, sollen die WS2812 eine entsprechende Farbe anzeigen. Z.B. wenn die Luftfeuchtigkeit zu hoch ist, einen Hinweis geben, dass man Lüften sollte. Oder wenn es draußen sehr Warm oder Kalt ist entsprechend mit Orange / Rot / Blau den Hinweis geben. So auch für die Innentemperatur. Und je nach Wetterlage soll eins der Symbole beleuchtet werden.

Design

Bei Pinterest habe ich mir ein paar schöne Wetterstationen angeschaut und nach Inspiration gesucht. Dort habe ich viele hässliche Wetterstationen gefunden, doch auch ein paar schöne. Das ganze sollte irgendwie Holzoptik bekommen und minimalistisch werden. Damit es nicht wie noch ein Wecker aussieht, habe ich auf ein richtiges Display verzichtet.

Scheibe

Herzstück der Wetterstation ist die Scheibe mit den Icons. Wir wollen diese von unten mit RGB LEds beleuchten und das PMMA quasi wie einen Lichtleiter nutzen. Je nach Wetterlage soll ein Icon leuchten.

Optik

Vor ein paar Jahren habe ich ja in der Lichttechnik gearbeitet, daher wollte ich mal gucken, ob ich es noch hinbekomme, eine kleine Kollimator-Optik für die WS2812 zu entwickeln. Leider konnte ich den genauen Brennpunkt für die die LED nicht herausfinden, daher habe ich einfach eine Parabel für den Mittelpunkt des Chips ausgelegt.

Die Optik bündelt das licht der LED und sorgt dafür, dass nur der jeweilige Bereich der Scheibe beleuchtet wird, für den sie vorgesehen ist und nicht so viel Streulicht auf die anderen Icons gelangt.

Für die Auslegung braucht man lediglich das Brechungsgesetz und den Brechungsindex des Scheibenmaterials. Dann konstruiert man mit ein paar Tangenten für ein paar vordefinierte Strahlenpfade. Good enough for me.

Icons

Natürlich sind coole Icons besonders wichtig für ein ansprechendes Aussehen. Ich habe mir im Netz ein paar Referenz-Icons gesucht, die mir vom Style her gefallen (minimalistisch) haben und angelehnt an diese dann in Solidworks die Icons konstruiert. Sie bestehen hauptsächlich aus Langlöchern, Kreisen und Splines. Zusammen mit der Schiebenkontur ergeben sie das erste Bauteil. Daraus kann man eine .dxf Datei ableiten. Die entsprechenden Farben für den K40-Whisperer habe ich in Inkscape zusammengefügt.

Für das Ausschneiden der Scheibe hat mein K40 bei einem Vorschub von 5mm/s und ca. 20mA Stromstärke 5 Durchgänge gebraucht. Die Icons habe ich dann im Raster-Modus mit 300m/s und ebenfalls bei 20mA Stromstärke graviert.

Zuhause etwas mit dem Laser produzieren ist einfach geil 🙂

Der Sockel

Der Sockel besteht aus vier Teilen. Einem Boden, dem eigentlichen Sockel und einem Deckel. Dazu kommt noch eine Art Brücke auf der die LEDs Platz finden.

Eigentlich würde ich nun den Deckel einfach über Kopf drucken, doch ich wollte hier nicht, dass die Struktur des Druckbettes sichtbar ist. Daher habe ich den Deckel in etwas ungünster ausrichtung gesliced – dazu habe ich dann einen kleinen Rand für eine Schichtdicke hinzu konstruiert, damit ich nicht so viel Support benötige. Das hat sogar ganz gut geklappt. Die restlichen Teile waren soweit kein Problem, nur hat der Anycubic mal wieder einen kleine defekt erlitten. Das Fitting für den PTFE Schlauch hat sich verabschiedet – das Gewinde ist gebrochen.

Innenleben

Im Inneren der Wetterstation befindet sich der ESP sowie der DHT-Sensor. Für den ESP8266 gibt es passende Schraubsockel, für die Version ESP32 muss ich diese noch einbauen.

Der ESP8266 wird mit M3 Schrauben befestigt, die Pins müssen nach oben zeigen. So passt der USB-Port direkt in das andere Gehäuseteil und die LEDs und der Sensor können einfach per Jumper angeschlossen werden.

DHT22

In meiner Version der Wetterstation nutze ich den DHT22, ich habe aber auch ein Case für den DHT11 konstruiert. Die Teile sind modular, so dass sie unterschiedlich kombiniert werden können (ESP32 / DHT 11, etc).

Der Sensor wird einfach in die Öffnung gesteckt und per Jumper mit dem ESP verbunden. Er sollte durch Reibung halten.

LED Stripe

Ich habe vier WS2812 LEDs benutzt. Das schöne bei diesen LEDs ist, dass man nur einen digitalen Pin braucht, um diese RGB LEDs anzusteuern. Wir gucken also dass wir uns passend zum PMMA Display einen LED Strip basteln. Dazu legen wir die LEDs unter die Kollimatoren und suchen uns passende Kabel heraus, bzw. kürzen diese entsprechend.

Bei meiner LED Version gibt es jeweils eine Seite auf der Platine an der der Dateneingang ist, die anderen drei sind Ausgänge. Hier habe ich Pins angelötet. Achtet darauf + und – korrekt zu verlöten.

Als mein Lightstrip fertig war, habe ich zunächst getestet, ob er funktioniert und die LEDs an die Positionen passen. Dann hab ich ihn mit Isolierband an der LED Brücke befestigt und diese in den vorbereiteten Sockel gesteckt. Das ganze sollte auf Reibung halten.

Zum Schluss kann einfach der Deckel mit Scheibe eingesteckt werden, welcher auch durch Reibung halten sollte. Damit ist die Hardware der Wetterstation zusammengebaut.

Code

Der Code ist doch recht umfangreich geworden, da ich mir vom DHT die Werte noch per MQTT an mein openHAB senden lasse und so direkt die Küche mit Loggen kann. Außerdem habe ich ein kleines Easter-Egg eingebaut 🙂 Ich poste hier mal den gesamten Sketch und gehe dann auf die einzelnen Abschnitte ein. Da der Code so lang ist, gibt es hier einen Seitenumbruch.

Außerdem habe ich eine GitHub Repo erstellt. Dort gibt es auch die anderen Files. Also die STLs und die DXF.

Update:

Ich hab das Teil aktuell mal wieder in die Hand genommen, um es auf unser neues Wifi-Upzudaten. Da ist mir aufgefallen, dass es eine Änderung in der Syntax für den HTPP request gibt. Außerdem will ich euch noch kurz erläutern, wie ihr die Arduino-Entwicklungsumgebung einrichtet.

Arduino

Auf der Arduino Website – im Software bereich könnt ihr euch für euer Betriebssystem die korrekte Version herunterladen. Mitlerweile ist das Interface auch ganz ungewohnt. Es gibt einen Darkmode

Wir gehen in die Einstellungen und fügen die folgenden zwei URLs in unsere zusätzlichen Board-verwalter URLS ein, die auf dem Screenshot unten zu sehen sind.

Für eine bessere Ansicht, kann man noch auf den kleinen Button rechts daneben klicken. Dann öffnet sich eine Listenansicht für die Einträge.

http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/espressif/arduino-esp32/gh-pages/package_esp32_index.json

Als nächtes wechseln wir in die Bibliotheken und installieren die Pakete für ESP8266 und ESP32. Ohne die URLS würden wir diese nicht finden. Dazu suchen wir einfach die Stichworte ESP8266 bzw. ESP32 und klicken in den Paketen auf installieren. Ab jetzt sind in der Ansicht unter den Boards, die entsprechenden Entwicklerboards und DEV-Kits gelistet.

Weitere Bibliotheken

Damit wir den Code compilieren können, brauchen wir noch die folgenden Bibliotheken:

  • Adafruit NeoPixel von Adafruit (bei mir V.1.10.6)
  • ArduinoJson von Benoit Blanchon (6.19.4)
  • DHT Sensor Library for ESPx von beegee_tokyo (1.18)
  • PubSubClient von Nick O’Leary (2.8)
  • WiFiManager von tzapu
  • LittleFS / SPIFFS (sollte im Core enthalten sein

Code

Der neue Arduino Sketch lautet Momentan so:

depending on the weather-id (https://openweathermap.org/weather-conditions#Weather-Condition-Codes-2) another led will light up
in a predefined colour to resemble weather and temperature and hightlight the respective icon.
See Full documentation on https://daniel-strohbach.de/diy-esp8266-wetterstation
Parts needed:
- ESP8266 or ESP32 Board, alternatively arduino nano with wifi shield will do as well but not coded here
- Optional: DHT22 or DHT11 Sensor to measure Indoor Temp and Humidity
- 4x WS2812 (aka NeoPixel) LED
Solder the 4 LEDs into a tiny LED Strip and connect to Dev Board:
Board LED   LED   LED   LED
3V3 - VCC - VCC - VCC - VCC
GND - GND - GND - GND - GND
D8 -  I/0 - I/O - I/O - I
Connect DHT22 / DHT11 to
Board DHT
3V3 - +
GND - -
D4  - OUT
Pixel-ID Icon reference (take care when assembling or switch in the code
0 - clear sky
1 - cloudy
2 - rainy
3 - snow
Outdoortemperature & Colours:
> 30°C - Red
> 21°C - Warm yellow
< 18°C - Light blue
< 00°C - Blue
Thunderstorm: Yellow
Fog: White
Red: Wifi related error
green: connecting
Optional: Send the measured DHT Data to an MQTT Broker (topics are customizable within captive portal)
receive Data:
temperature: stat/openWeather/Temperatur
Humidity: stat/openWeather/Feuchtigkeit
HeatIndex: stat/openWeather/HeatIndex
control openWeather:
light on: cmnd/openWeather/power - payload on
light off: cmnd/openWeather/power - payload off
switch to party mode: cmnd/openWeather/state - PixelParty1 or PixelParty2
upon receiving a command it sends back on stat/openWeather/power and stat/openWeather/state which mode it is in.
Dependencies:
PubSubClient
ArduinoJson
ESP8266 Libs
ESP32 Libs
DHT Sensor library for ESPx
WifiManager
LittleFS
Now with Wifi Manager or HardCoded Wifi credentials optional.

openWeather.ino (505 Downloads )

Damit sollte das ganze etwas Einsteigerfreundlicher sein. Also Sketch Uploaden, zusammengebaute openWeather Station an 5V. Dann mit dem openWeather Accesspoint verbinden, nach dem eigenen Wifi suchen, ggf. die MQTT Daten und die openWeatherMap API eingeben und ab dafür. Wenn ihr auf einzelne Module verzichten möchtet, müssen wir diese einfach oben im Arduino Sketch auskommentieren.

(Strg +#) ist der Shortcut zum Kommentieren in der Arduino IDE.

MQTT

Ich nutze wieder MQTT um die Sensorwerte in meine openHAB HomeAssitant Instanz auf dem RaspberryPi zu senden. Dort werden diese in einer InfluxDB gespeichert und mit Grafana visualisiert. Hier nur kurz ein paar Screenshots, da ich das vorgehen ja schon zur genüge in anderen Beiträgen beschrieben hab.

OpenHAB

//openWeather
Number openWeatherTemperature   "MQTT: openWeather Temperatur"     { channel="mqtt:topic:openWeather:openWeatherTemperature"}
Number openWeatherHumidity      "MQTT: openWeather Feuchtigkeit"   { channel="mqtt:topic:openWeather:openWeatherHumidity"}
Number openWeatherHeatIndex     "MQTT: openWeather HeatIndex"      { channel="mqtt:topic:openWeather:openWeatherHeatIndex"}
Switch openWeatherPixelParty1   "MQTT: openWeather PixelParty1"    { channel="mqtt:topic:openWeather:party1switch"}
Switch openWeatherPixelParty2   "MQTT: openWeather PixelParty2"    { channel="mqtt:topic:openWeather:party2switch"}
Switch openWeatherLEDswitch     "MQTT: openWeather LEDSwitch"      { channel="mqtt:topic:openWeather:LEDswitch"}

HomeAssistant

Im HomeAssistant müssen wir noch mit dem File-Editor die Sensoren und Switches zur Steuerung hinzufügen.

mqtt:
sensor:
- name: "Wohnzimmer Temperatur"
state_topic: "stat/openWeather/Temperatur"
unique_id: wohnzimmerTemperatur
unit_of_measurement: "°C"
- name: "Wohnzimmer Feuchtigkeit"
state_topic: "stat/openWeather/Feuchtigkeit"
unique_id: wohnzimmerFeuchtigkeit
unit_of_measurement: "%"
switch:
- name: "OpenWeather on/off Switch"
unique_id: openWeather_switch
state_topic: "stat/openWeather/power"
command_topic: "cmnd/openWeather/power"
payload_on: "on"
payload_off: "off"
state_on: "on"
state_off: "off"
- name: "OpenWeather State Switch"
unique_id: openWeather_state
state_topic: "stat/openWeather/state"
command_topic: "cmnd/openWeather/state"
payload_on: "PixelParty1"
payload_off: "PixelParty2"

Damit können wir nun im Dashboard eine Schaltfläche zum ändern des Modus bzw. zum Ein/Ausschalten einrichten.

Der On/Off Switch schaltet die Station nicht wirklich aus, sondern nur die Anzeige, da ich gerne weiterhin die Daten loggen möchte. Der State Switch ist für die Easter Eggs gedacht 🙂

Wer einen $Echo$ oder eine der Alternativen zuhause hat, kann nun auch die Schalter einbinden und per Sprachbefehl bedienen.

Alternative

Wer kein openHAB / HomeAssistant will oder hat, aber noch einen RaspberryPi herumfliegen hat, kann <hier/> den Guide für einen IOT Server auf Basis des RaspberryPi nachlesen.
