Hi guys,
I want to water 5min and light 12hours my plant per day. The problem is that I want it random.
For example 2hours light, then shut down, then 1h32 light etc... the same for water.
I have an arduino nano with RTC DS3132 and two relays 220V and this is the code I used for the beginning.
#include <DS3231.h>
#include <Wire.h>
DS3231 clock;
RTCDateTime dt;
int led = 8;
int relay = 9;
void setup()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
// Initialize DS3231
Serial.println("Initialize DS3231");;
clock.begin();
// Disarm alarms and clear alarms for this example, because alarms is battery backed.
// Under normal conditions, the settings should be reset after power and restart microcontroller.
clock.armAlarm1(false);
clock.armAlarm2(false);
clock.clearAlarm1();
clock.clearAlarm2();
pinMode(relay, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(relay, LOW);
pinMode(led, OUTPUT);
digitalWrite(led, LOW);
// Manual (Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minute, Second)
// Set Alarm - Every second.
// DS3231_EVERY_SECOND is available only on Alarm1.
// setAlarm1(Date or Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Mode, Armed = true)
// clock.setAlarm1(0, 0, 0, 0, DS3231_EVERY_SECOND);
// Set Alarm - Every full minute.
// DS3231_EVERY_MINUTE is available only on Alarm2.
// setAlarm2(Date or Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Mode, Armed = true)
// clock.setAlarm2(0, 0, 0, 0, DS3231_EVERY_MINUTE);
// Set Alarm1 - Every 20s in each minute
// setAlarm1(Date or Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Mode, Armed = true)
clock.setAlarm1(0, 0, 0, 20, DS3231_MATCH_S);
// Set Alarm2 - Every 01m in each hour
// setAlarm2(Date or Day, Hour, Minute, Mode, Armed = true)
clock.setAlarm2(0, 0, 1, DS3231_MATCH_M);
// Set Alarm - Every 01m:25s in each hour
// setAlarm1(Date or Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Mode, Armed = true)
// clock.setAlarm1(0, 0, 1, 25, DS3231_MATCH_M_S);
// Set Alarm - Every 01h:10m:30s in each day
// setAlarm1(Date or Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Mode, Armed = true)
// clock.setAlarm1(0, 1, 10, 30, DS3231_MATCH_H_M_S);
// Set Alarm - 07h:00m:00s in 25th day in month
// setAlarm1(Date or Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Mode, Armed = true)
// clock.setAlarm1(25, 7, 0, 0, DS3231_MATCH_DT_H_M_S);
// Set Alarm - 10h:45m:30s in every Friday (1 - Mon, 7 - Sun)
// setAlarm1(Date or Day, Hour, Minute, Second, Mode, Armed = true)
// clock.setAlarm1(5, 10, 40, 30, DS3231_MATCH_DY_H_M_S);
// Check alarm settings
checkAlarms();
}
