Hi!

Your image is not available.

The function to check the text file should be like this:

Code: Select all

if (file.open("FEEDER.TXT", O_READ))
{
  while ((n = file.read(buf, sizeof(buf))) > 0)
  {
    minuto01 = atoi(buf);
    if (minuto01 >  NumMins(t.hour, t.min))
    {
      // Copy only the first value to a variable. Then calculate the time to next feeding. NumMins(t.hour, t.min) is the current time in minutes.
    }
  }
  file.close();
}


Look the function for feeder here: https://github.com/FernandoGarcia/Ferdu ... co.ino#L21

Best regards.

i try this

Code: Select all

if (file.open("FEEDER.TXT", O_READ))
{
  int16_t n;
  char buf[7];
  int minuto01 = 0;
  int minuto11 = 0;

  while ((n = file.read(buf, sizeof(buf))) > 0)
  {
    minuto01 = atoi(buf);
    if (minuto01 >  NumMins(t.hour, t.min))
    {   
        if (minuto11 < 10)
        {
          myGLCD.printNumF(minuto01,80, 192);

        }
        else if (( minuto11 > 10) && (minuto11 < 100))
        {
          myGLCD.printNumF(minuto01,80, 192);

        }
        else if (( minuto11 >= 100) && (minuto11 < 1000))
        {
          myGLCD.printNumF(minuto01,80, 192);
         
        }
        else if (minuto11 >= 1000)
        {
          myGLCD.printNumF(minuto01,80, 192);       
        }
      // Copy only the first value to a variable. Then calculate the time to next feeding. NumMins(t.hour, t.min) is the current time in minutes.
    }
  }
  file.close();
}


Maybe this is too difficult for me to understand

but
thanks for your attention

best regard.

Hi!

Try understand what the code does before. It's more easy than you are doing.

Add to "Ferduino" tab:

Code: Select all

int reminder = 0;

Add to "Alimentador_automatico" tab:

Code: Select all

void FeederReminder()
{
  int16_t n;
  char buf[7];
  int minuto01 = 0;
  boolean match = false;

  if (file.open("FEEDER.TXT", O_READ))
  {
    while ((n = file.read(buf, sizeof(buf))) > 0)
    {
      minuto01 = atoi(buf);
      if (minuto01 >  NumMins(t.hour, t.min))
      {
        if (match == false)
        {
          match = true;
          reminder = minuto01;
        }
      }
    }
    file.close();
  }
}


On loop find:

Code: Select all

check_alimentador();

Add after:

Code: Select all

FeederReminder();

In "Inicio" tab find:

Code: Select all

myGLCD.setColor(161, 127, 73);

Add before:

Code: Select all

    if (reminder > 0) // Adjust this part according to your requirements.
    {
      myGLCD.printNumI(reminder - NumMins(t.hour, t.min), x, y);
    }

Best regards.

wow thanks, is working, but little problem,

if in idle condition (night) minus number

Example; Feed live set at 08.00 - 16.00 normal running number.
but if 16.00 - 08.00 - numbers indicate minus.


thanks
best regard

Sorry, I've tried some code but can not succes.

Code: Select all

//=========
    if ((reminder > 180) &&(bitRead(alimentacao_wavemaker_on_off, 0) == true)) // Adjust this part according to your requirements.
    {
      myGLCD.printNumI(reminder - NumMins(t.hour, t.min), x, y);
    }
    else  // if ((reminder == NumMins(t.hour, t.min)) &&(bitRead(alimentacao_wavemaker_on_off, 0) == true))
    {
      myGLCD.print("IDLE", x, y);
    }
//========



I want when the feeder function is more than 3 hours waiting, the status becomes idle.



best regards

Hi!

Try understand what you are doing first.

"reminder" is the time to next dosage in minutes. So if do you want know if the interval to next dosage is higher than 3 hours you should make like this:

Code: Select all

if((reminder -  NumMins(t.hour, t.min)) > 180)


Best regards.

[Diztly Wardizt]

thanks fernando,
Code works well, there are constraints in the minus numbers when the night, I do not understand how to resolved this problem.

Actually I like this, just try some of my code does not work,
especially after hours to the turn to AM and PM



sorry my english to bad

Thanks

Hi!

I don't understand what you are doing.

In my code if you try set the time as 18:00 to 6:00, you will get this error:

"The end time can't be smaller than start time!"

If you are converting the time to 12 h format you should use the time from RTC directly not converted time.

Using the web interface you could get this info:

Notice that the last dosage is 18:20 so reminder is 1100 or (18 * 60) + 20.

Therefore if current time is 18:21 reminder will be 1101 so doing reminder - curreent time (1100 - 1101) you will get -1.

Using this condition you will avoid negative time after all dosages has been done.

Code: Select all

if((reminder -  NumMins(t.hour, t.min)) > 0)

Best regards.
