BTW @DirtDiggler2823 your second calibration point is way off i think :-/ , we'll see
That's what I got after sitting in the calibration fluid for about 20 minutes. I have more fluid to test with, but I need to get this process down first.

I think so, I am not sure if this is just formatting or typo issue with posting it in reef2reef thread or its actual file content. Hence I suggested cat and screenshot . Whatever it is, if we persevere we’ll pin it down

Just got my tp-link smart plug working with some prototype code :) . Its been a much desired thing that i want to support, and a couple of other folks were trying to get it done as well. So if you are want to try it out, with next version of reef-pi 3.x release you should be able to use these

That will be awesome!
Will this be restricted to just the TPLink smart plugs, or will it work with other brands?

Got around to doing some tests. Here is the test setup.
2 x stepper pumps for fill and reagent, 1 x std dosing pump for drain. pH probe with atlas pH circuit, diy stirrer.
alk_test.jpg


Set it to do 7 test over 5 hours. Testing natural seawater. Results in dKH:
6.991
6.949
6.894
6.910
6.891
6.883
6.889
Not to bad.
There is trend that when the test isn't run for 12 hours or more the first couple tests seem to read a little higher. Need to look into that a little further.
Very small sample size but looks promising.

Chris

As for the higher PH trend ive noticed that the KH guardian that is based off this same type of test states in there manual. That the machine must be 3 feet or less from the water and to not cut the tubing. So maybe it has something to do with the amount of tubing you have. Just a guess though. Im going to be following this I would love to build it. and try it out.

ranjib have you put any thought into the sonar sensors for water height detection in sump? imo would be pretty nice because there are no parts in the saltwater to get salt creep on.

I keep getting an Unauthorized error when I go to execute the calibration file.

Man I feel for you, you are so close. But I can also see the issue with your commands. See , the last three commands in your screenshot is what matter, I can see your cookie and auth is correct as you can list the ph probes (against the pi 127.0.0.1), but in the calibration command you entered cookie file wrong, cookie.tst instead of cookie.txt. Just change that and you should be successful :)

We’ll see . If this gets popular and reliable, then we can add the other brands, or expand on to link itself (supporting multi outlet smart power bars etc). Currently only single outlet plugs are supported.

Are you using a pico board? This calibration is kicking my butt.
yes, it is pico board.

Calibration is kicking my butt too right now. I think I am having the same issue as you, but I'm on day 1 instead of 7. I am carefully reading all your posts and @Ranjib 's responses to figure out what to do. I haven't given up yet. ... maybe soon. ;)

I'm also baking peanut butter cookies and the raw dough is keeping my spirits up.

Mine looked like it took the file, but the numbers in the UI look the same. I'm out and about, but I'll be home shortly.

The code support uses the local Kasa proprietary protocol, which is nice as it bypasses “the cloud”. Other plugs don’t speak it, but future integration with a home hub or remote API would unlock more (though I wouldn’t recommend running your heater on that - what happens when the internet goes down?)
