Hi,i am new in this forum,I am working on a project arduino beekeeping sms scales , I made a prototype but I have a problem great battery consumption , namely my battery is spent in two days , it is necessary to take at least one month without recharging .
I saw the text of Mr. Gammon on power save function , so I asked him because I see that he is the expert in this area to help with the upgrade code .
twice in 24 hours my balance takes the data from the sensors and through text messages sent my report on my cell phone , this time in the code are listed as one TIMER 1 , and TIMER 2.
whether it is possible to balance it off , and that wakes up only when the reading and sending messages .
if we can use an external RTC I have a DS1302 as a trigger, for awakening or some another way ?Sorry for my bad english,and thank you for any help!!
My code is:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <DS1302.h>
#define EEPROM_TARE 0
#define EEPROM_TIMER1 4
#define EEPROM_TIMER2 5
#define TEL_NUMBER "+385xxxxxxx"
#define OUTBUFSIZE 160
uint8_t CE_PIN = 11;
uint8_t IO_PIN = 12;
uint8_t SCLK_PIN = 13;
char m_outBuffer[OUTBUFSIZE];
void setup()
{
SerialInit();
Scale_init( EEPROMReadlong( EEPROM_TARE) );
TimersInit( EEPROMRead( EEPROM_TIMER1), EEPROMRead( EEPROM_TIMER2) );
Temp_humidity_sensor_init();
//SetGSMSerial(false);
//sprintf( m_outBuffer, "start" );
//SendData( m_outBuffer );
}
