GT1000 Pro Temperature Flow

GT 1000 Pro Temperature
Here you will be given a few different examples of how to use a GT1000 Pro for temperature measurements, as well as connecting to our relay units - so different things can be done if the conditions are right.
See Image

Device Setup

If you are here, we expect you have already created an account and connected your device. If you have not done this, you can click the guide or on register

If you need to name various outputs from your device, you can do so by clicking on the device under devices. 

Log

Personally, I like to see logs so I can go back in the data and possibly make an overview of the year and see when and how often an incident occurs. To make a log, we need to go under logs and thus create a new one at the bottom of the button and name it. 

You can create all the logs you need if you want to do some SoC (Seperation of Concern). For example, you might want to log when the water is too high in a log so that it is for itself. This way we can create a log for example. the device's status on the different things, such as power, signal and last_update.

Dashboard

This requires us to briefly open our Dashboard page. We would like to be able to see the status of, for example, water status, if there is power, signal strength and last_update. Here you can decide for yourself what you want – a dashboard is not a necessity, but it is now a nice thing to have from time to time.

  1. Press edit up top on the right.
  2. Click on the number 2 icon on the right side. This should give you a “My Widget” 
  3. Then click on the gear wheel – then give your widget a name, for example “Power”.
  4. Choose a Variable If you don't have a variable, you can simply create one by clicking “Create New” and naming it. I would advise creating a “system” for how you create names if you are going to use it for something bigger or expect a lot of variables. 
  5. When done, press the cross at the top of the column on the right.
  6. Then Saw top right corner.

If you would like to see a log in your Dashboard, it is the third last icon - then you just choose which log you would like to display.  Read more about Dashboard here

Flow

At this point, format number, delay and logs are not a necessity – these are what are often used but may not be necessary in your case. You can read more about the different nodes and see what suits you best.
  1. Inside the flow, open Devices and pull the device “IN” out.
  2. We need a Format Number, Previous Value, Greater than, Less than node.
  3. Temp must be dragged into format and format further to Input 1 and to Current.
  4. Then we take a Is Equal, OR Gate and 2 Delay notes.
  5. Subtract Output from Previous Value into Input 1 on Is Equal, Output from Format Number should go into Input 2 on the same node. Then Output from Greater and Lesser the notes into our OR Gate. Then drag Equal and our Gate into Delay the node – You can read more about our Delay node here.
  6. Delay we pull the node into a Pulse node and then into a OR Gate and further to a log. On the log node we can create a variable e.g. {temp} whereby you can drag a value to the node so that it is written to the log.
Then your flow should be up and running. Read more about Flows and Nodes here
