Light measurement disturbed by flashing LED
BastiJoe opened this issue · 1 comments
Hey Thom,
first of all, thank you very much for that great work. I am using your code on raspbian and reading the values via mosquitto into openhab.
The only issue i have now, is that the sunlight measurement is being disturbed by the LED which is flashing during READ.
Please check this image:
two times the value is correct, the next two times it is not.
Do you have any hint, how to disable or delay the flashing LED?
Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards
Basti
Hey Basti,
no sorry nothing we can do about that. I ended up filtering the readings to get a longer-term trend for further consideration. Supposedly the Miflora Sensors also send measurements passively, which the daemon does not cover. I wonder if those passive readings are influenced by any LED blinking. You could check that out...
