Specifications

[rhubarbo]

I put this all in but not having any luck. Could you post any additional specifications that are required?- Like if the wiring needs to be a specific type (or shielded or anything). The only deviation I have from your parts list is some of the wiring because I needed a lot more of it.

I have attached a screen shot with all door closed. Side note: I took the liberty of adding the exclamation point when both circuits are low (something that should never happen). But I have the same results with the original source code.

The wire that runs to the door sensors doesn't carry any voltage, each sensor just pulls a pull-up resistor low when closed, so a thick wire really isn't need. I used Cat5e internet cable to my sensors, which contains 24 gauge wire.

I like your use of the exclamation point instead of my question mark.

Feel free to add it if you wish (attached) . I wanted something to distinguish the low/low (somethings wrong) from the high/high (opening ot closing).  Thanks for the information. I think I am going too heavy with the wiring I have. I’ll try again.  DSluga On Jul 4, 2021, at 4:05 PM, Steve ***@***.*** ***@***.***> > wrote: The wire that runs to the door sensors doesn't carry any voltage, each sensor just pulls a pull-up resistor low when closed, so a thick wire really isn't need.

As an update, I did rewire with Cat 5e and it works flawlessly. I guess it is sensitive to excessive wire size with longer runs. Thanks for your help.  Also, I set a cron job to monitor the doors every 20 minutes after 10PM and text (AWS CLI) me if any door is left open. I’ll likely modify that to simply attempt to close the door if there are no responses after a set amount of time.  Thanks again for your help.  DSluga On Jul 4, 2021, at 4:11 PM, Dan Sluga ***@***.*** ***@***.***> > wrote: <GarageFail.gif> Feel free to add it if you wish (attached) .
