MySensors Energy Meter Pulse Sensor

/** * The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol * between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice. * The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each * repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the * network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes. * * Created by Henrik Ekblad <henrik.ekblad@mysensors.org> * Copyright (C) 2013-2015 Sensnology AB * Full contributor list: https://github.com/mysensors/Arduino/graphs/contributors * * Documentation: http://www.mysensors.org * Support Forum: http://forum.mysensors.org * * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or * modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License * version 2 as published by the Free Software Foundation. * ******************************* * * REVISION HISTORY * Version 1.0 - Henrik EKblad * * DESCRIPTION * This sketch provides an example how to implement a distance sensor using HC-SR04 * Use this sensor to measure KWH and Watt of your house meeter * You need to set the correct pulsefactor of your meeter (blinks per KWH). * The sensor starts by fetching current KWH value from gateway. * Reports both KWH and Watt back to gateway. * * Unfortunately millis() won't increment when the Arduino is in * sleepmode. So we cannot make this sensor sleep if we also want * to calculate/report watt-number. * http://www.mysensors.org/build/pulse_power */ // Enable debug prints #define MY_DEBUG // Enable and select radio type attached #define MY_RADIO_NRF24 //#define MY_RADIO_RFM69 #define MY_NODE_ID 51 #include <SPI.h> #include <MySensor.h> #define DIGITAL_INPUT_SENSOR 3 // The digital input you attached your light sensor.
