Support for Emos E6016 Rain Gauge sensor #2001

stomko11 · 2022-03-01T11:49:06Z

Hello. Recently support for Emos E6016 weather station was added. My set contained also rain gauge sensor (no specific name, just additional sensor). I have uploaded signal captures to rtl_433_tests (at the moment it is still pending approval to upload) and am looking for anyone willing to help on this.
@AutomGuy since you actively worked on Emos E6016 addition, wondering if you also have rain gauge too?

The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:

zuckschwerdt · 2022-03-01T12:13:58Z

The transmission looks different than the EMOS E6016, it's not PWM but Manchester.
This should get the codes: rtl_433 -X 'n=EMOS-RAIN,m=OOK_MC_ZEROBIT,s=500,l=500,r=1200'
If that does not work get the raw PCM with: rtl_433 -X 'n=EMOS-RAIN,m=OOK_PCM,s=500,l=500,r=1200'

Try to get a progression of codes with each code +1 bucket tip. Then we can look for the fields in a BitBench.

stomko11 · 2022-03-01T13:02:36Z

Attached is capture. Transmission is every 1 minute 25 seconds.
I started off with timestamp 13:50:14, and then between every other transmission, I manipulated with the tip. Not sure if this is the output that you were looking for?

13:50:14
13:51:39
13:53:04
13:54:29
13:55:54
13:57:19

emos_rain.txt

zuckschwerdt · 2022-03-01T13:09:55Z

Those codes look empty. But e.g. from your PR g009 I get:

{97}2aaaaaaaccb532cd553532b50
{97}33354b555554b54ccaad2b528

stomko11 · 2022-03-01T13:20:28Z

OK, here is another capture using second command. Same method as previously.
emos_rain2.txt

zuckschwerdt · 2022-03-01T13:31:34Z

Ok, so it's not Manchester then or not recognized as MC anyway.
If we assume a data whitening of 0xaa we get this BitBench where a counter and a checksum is visible.

It's stange that there is so much data for basically one byte rain counter and one byte checksum.
You need to perform more tests, reset the battery and such to confirm the pattern.

Collect your data in a BitBench like above.

AutomGuy · 2022-03-01T15:04:02Z

@stomko11 ,
the EMOS 6016 consist of 3 parts at Mister Bezos buisness you can buy EOMOS Complete consisting of Windgauge, Raingauge, and Colored Display. Or you can by only the windgauge as extra Part. Apparently is the rain gauge a independently device.

stomko11 · 2022-03-01T15:10:00Z

I took another capture, BitBench
Raw output here:
emos_rain3.txt

Between 15:47:49 and 15:48:12 I changed the tip and reinserted battery. That's why it is not after 1:25, but it sends report when battery is inserted.
Between 15:49:37 and 15:51:02 I did no change to tip.
Between 15:51:02 and 15:51:20 I just pulled the battery (again that's why early report at 15:51:20).
Besides those ocassions described above, I did always change tip between the reports.

stomko11 · 2022-03-03T08:26:50Z

It seems that pattern is changing after pulling battery (reports since 15:51:20). I am not able to move forward. Any help would be appreciated.

zuckschwerdt · 2022-03-03T09:24:02Z

I suspect the transmission is no picked up reliably or the demod fails. The output isn't really plausible.
Perhaps try to optimize the reception and record a set of cu8 samples. This isn't ideal, but it seems we can't trust the bit slicing here. https://triq.org/rtl_433/ANALYZE.html

stomko11 · 2022-03-03T14:11:58Z

I will get another USB stick and try to gather more samples. I appreciate the support you are providing. This is great project and wonderful community.

stomko11 · 2022-03-23T19:53:17Z

I did get the additional tuner and tried to follow recommended article, I just don't know what to do with it. I did take few cu8 samples, analyzed them, but I don't actually know what am I looking at or what am I searching for. Or what should I see here. Example cu8 file is attached, together with generated sample based on article. Can someone help me out?
EMOS.zip

zuckschwerdt · 2022-03-23T20:05:44Z

At least the first sample (g001) works. The others (6,7) are too strong and swamp the receiver.
This will decode clean signals: rtl_433 -R 0 -X 'n=name,m=OOK_PWM,s=300,l=800,g=1000,r=2500,bits>=72,invert'
And gets you aaa58a34ec300000298 repeated a few times.

You would now need to run that and optimize distance or position to always reliably get those codes.
We can then look at the codes for different known readings, e.g. a slow ramp of temperature, to figure out how to pick the codes apart.

stomko11 · 2022-03-23T20:19:24Z

Well this is only rain gauge, does not measure anything else, only adds +0,7mm of rainfall with each swing,
I will follow above recommendations and post back.

stomko11 · 2022-03-23T21:44:30Z

Attached are samples that I took

21:25:47
21:27:12
6 swings
21:28:37
1 swing
21:30:02
21:31:27
5 swings + removed and reinserted battery
21:31:54
21:33:19
2 swings
21:34:44
removed and reinserted battery
21:35:00
21:36:25

Is the captured output any helpful?

rain_gauge_1.txt
.

zuckschwerdt · 2022-03-24T07:04:31Z

The received codes look very clean and regular, good reception!

You would now collect and format the codes and your notes like this:

{73}aaa58a34ec300000298[2022-03-23 21:25:47]
{73}aaa58a34ec300000298[2022-03-23 21:27:12]
{73}aaa58a34ec3000062f8[2022-03-23 21:28:37 +6 swings]
{73}aaa58a34ec300007308[2022-03-23 21:30:02 +1 swings]
{73}aaa58a34ec300007308[2022-03-23 21:31:27]
{73}aaa58a34ec300000298[2022-03-23 21:31:54 +5 swings + removed and reinserted battery]
{73}aaa58a34ec300000298[2022-03-23 21:33:19]
{73}aaa58a34ec3000022b8[2022-03-23 21:34:44 +2 swings]
{73}aaa58a34ec300000298[2022-03-23 21:35:00 removed and reinserted battery]
{73}aaa58a34ec300000298[2022-03-23 21:36:25]

and put that in a BitBench.

So we know the last byte is a checksum (addition over 8 bytes) and the two bytes before that are a counter.
I guess the start is part preamble, sync word, ID, and status. Not sure, but too long for just ID.
Can you perhaps insert known dead batteries or use a variable voltage power supply to see if some bits before the counter change (battery_low flag).

Bitbench for That
The bytes of my wind sensor were inverted

AutomGuy · 2022-03-24T09:03:52Z

I gues now it is easy to copy the file in the post before and modified it 👍 :)

stomko11 · 2022-03-24T09:07:25Z

Here is the capture and this BitBench

rain_gauge_battery.txt

AutomGuy · 2022-03-24T09:47:28Z

@stomko11 , May be that BitBench

zuckschwerdt · 2022-03-24T10:01:53Z

This is confusing. So the decoder for "EMOS E6016 weatherstation with DCF77" is for a sensor to the "E6016 station", but we don't have a model number for the sensor. And this rain gauge is also a sensor for that station, but again with no own model number, right?

stomko11 · 2022-03-24T10:58:16Z

Right. This one on the sticker just says "EMOS, type: E6016", SN: 401502
As displayed here there are basically 3 things - indoor unit displaying data, then station (outdoor temp, wind speed, wind direction, humidity, ...) and additional rain gauge. But this acts as standalone sensor as far as rtl_433 is concerned.

AutomGuy · 2022-03-24T11:14:18Z

So i explain what i ment.

That is the pream before inverting the bytes at EMOS6016 Windsensor
aaa583 -> we can Identify the sensor as Windsensor
Here we check the pream of the inverted bytes
// model check 55 5a 7c
if (b[0] != 0x55 || b[1] != 0x5a || b[2] != 0x7c) {
decoder_log(decoder, 2, func, "Model check fail");
return DECODE_ABORT_EARLY;
}
the result of that are the name
data_t *data = data_make(
"model", "", DATA_STRING, "EMOS-E6016",

the only thing what we have to do is
the pream of the rain gauge sensor is
aaa58a -> the diff is the a at last position.
// model check aa a5 8a
if (b[0] != 0xaa || b[1] != 0xa5 || b[2] != 0x8a) {
decoder_log(decoder, 2, func, "Model check fail");
return DECODE_ABORT_EARLY;
}

the result of that are the name
data_t *data = data_make(
"model", "", DATA_STRING, "EMOS-E6016_RAIN",

i hope now it is clear what i ment.
Best Regards

AutomGuy · 2022-03-24T11:17:44Z

Has the rain gauge sensor a Channel Switch?

stomko11 · 2022-03-24T11:18:07Z

no, it does not have channel switch.

AutomGuy · 2022-03-24T12:27:17Z

@stomko11, So i have had a look into the manual of that rain gauge sensors.
The technical data say the range og that sensor is "precipitation sensor measurement range: 0 to 2,999 mm"
That means that is the max.
{73}aaa58a34ec300bb7298[2022-03-23 21:25:47] -> the checksum is wrong (i change the rain bytes by Hand) :)

That is the format string
MODEL?:8h8h8h ID?:8h BAT?:2b ?:6h8h4h RAIN:12d CHK:8h 8x

and here the link to the BitBench
May be with all these informations you can create a decoder. :)

AutomGuy · 2022-03-24T14:00:04Z

@stomko11, I used the emos_e6016.c decoder as a basis and derived the decoder for the rain gauge.
you have to replace <your name, e-mail> with your data, transmision interval.
then you have to compile the decoder in your rtl_433 at your machine. test it.
if it works satisfactorily you can create a pull request or may be christian will help you out.
the decoder file as zip
emos_e6016_rain.zip
Best regards

AutomGuy · 2022-03-24T14:37:24Z

I have overlooked that each swing are 0.7mm.
i have corrected this.
emos_e6016_rain.zip

stomko11 · 2022-03-24T15:29:27Z

Appreciate your support on this, but I am pretty lost. So how do I actually test this? I did compile the code on my raspberry where I am testing this, by following the tutorial. But I am not quite sure I understand where to put this or what to do. I am new at all this, sorry.

stomko11 · 2022-03-24T19:50:29Z

OK first of all, thanks. I did check the file, seems that there was a typo on line 71

    float rain_mm  = rain_row * 0.7;

I did change that to rain_raw and corrected file is attached. However I am not able to receive anything. I did check the PR when EMOS station support was added, and basically the important part it decoder (attached) and references to it. I first tried to modify those files and add additional decoder, but I was unsuccessful. So I cloned the master repository and just renamed emos_e6016_rain.c to emos_e6016.c and compiled it. But when I run it, I don't decode anything. When I capture raw signal, there are signals sent by gauge, but when I just run rtl_433 without any additional arguments (or specify protocol 214 in this case), I don't get any good decoding output. Maybe the procedure I used here was not the right one...
emos_e6016_rain.zip

AutomGuy · 2022-03-25T08:04:21Z

Morning, that was a mistake from me, it should be "rain_raw".
you have to download or clone the entire project.
then find in the directory structure "src/device/" copy into that directory the decoder file (emos_e6016_rain.c)
then goto directory /src find "CMakeList.txt" add in this file under "add_library("
that "devices/emos_e6016_rain.c" below the other "emos_e6016".

then goto "/include" find that file "rtl_433_devices.h" add in this file under "#define DEVICES "at last "DECL(emos_e6016_rain) "
now you have to compile the project. And when no errors occurs
And you start "rtl_433 -R help" should the output a list of all decoders.
And the Last output could look like this "[21x] EMOS E6016 Rain Gauge"

AutomGuy · 2022-03-29T07:09:08Z

but when you look back with this parameters you get 726 Bytes and the first 3 Bytes tells me it is the wind sensor. when you take out the bat of the wind sensor und you try it again only with the rain sensor.
rtl_433 -R 0 -X 'n=name,m=OOK_PWM,s=300,l=800,g=1000,r=2500,bits>=72,invert'
what is the result?

AutomGuy · 2022-03-29T07:14:19Z

my emos wind sensor has the preamble aa a5 83 and your wind sensor also otherwise the windsensor decoder doesent work.
the rain sensor has the preamble aa a5 8a i gues

AutomGuy · 2022-03-29T07:16:07Z

the wind sensor send approx. all 61s and the rain sensor ?

AutomGuy · 2022-03-29T07:24:01Z

please type into your console rtl_433 -R help
and look wich is the number for the emos rain gauge
and replace the 216 by your number of your emos rain gauge -> run this command rtl_433 -R 216 -y '{73}555a75cb13cffff8cf0 {73}555a75cb13cffff8cf0 {73}555a75cb13cffff8cf0'

stomko11 · 2022-03-29T07:57:19Z

I did not pull batteries from weather station, because every time I insert batteries to rain gauge, it sends report. So basically I can pull batteries and insert it back, it sends report. Weather station reports in periodic intervals (61s), rain gauge is 85s
So here is the output if I pulled and reinserted batteries to rain gauge few times shortly after each other:

rtl_433 -R 0 -X 'n=name,m=OOK_PWM,s=300,l=800,g=1000,r=2500,bits>=72,invert'

is that the same?

@stomko11, Do this rtl_433 -R 0 -X 'n=name,m=OOK_PWM,s=300,l=800,g=1000,r=2500,bits>=72,invert' without ',inverted' please.

Tried both below, wasn't sure which one you are after. Did few battery reinserts, nothing returned on the output.

but without inverted

stomko11 · 2022-03-29T09:01:41Z

So above is the output with exact commands I used, I am not sure which one is precisely the one you want me to execute. However in both cases, I did reinsert batteries several times, but nothing on the console output.

AutomGuy · 2022-03-29T09:22:44Z

so that is realy strange:

and actually i would like have the same post
with this command rtl_433 -R 0 -X 'n=name,m=OOK_PWM,s=300,l=800,g=1000,r=2500,bits>=72'

i expected the same data but not inverted. output above data: aaa58a. i expected 555a75

zuckschwerdt · 2022-03-29T09:22:46Z

.modulation = OOK_PULSE_PWM in option -X m=OOK_PWM? is that the same?

Yes.

@zuckschwerdt , Christian how to put here the inverted tag at this structure

You can't. Use the bitbuffer_invert(bitbuffer); function.

@zuckschwerdt That's what I thought, i use it inside the decoder.

AutomGuy · 2022-03-29T09:56:50Z

@stomko11 the post without 'inverted' looks like what i expected, but then my decoder should work.
so the inversion will be done in
line 72 bitbuffer_invert(bitbuffer);

as you can see
the decoder use the same timings as -X option

// -X 'n=name,m=OOK_PWM,s=300,l=800,g=1000,r=2500,bits>=72'
r_device emos_e6016_rain = {
.name = "EMOS E6016 RAIN GAUGE",
.modulation = OOK_PULSE_PWM,
.short_width = 300,
.long_width = 800,
.gap_limit = 1000,
.reset_limit = 2500,
.decode_fn = &emos_e6016_rain_decode,
.fields = output_fields,
};
try to use this command
rtl_433 -R 0 -R 216 and then insert the batterie into the raingauge sensor. and see what is happend.
i have no more ideas.
maybe @zuckschwerdt Christian has a tip or can support.

hmm, something is unreliable on these battery pulls. But here is the output:

This is with your latest decoder posted here yesterday.

zuckschwerdt · 2022-03-29T19:19:52Z

Your decoder looks good. A few notes:

you don't need to set bitbuffer->bits_per_row =
just use bitbuffer_find_repeated_row(bitbuffer, 3, 72)
then if (bitbuffer->bits_per_row[r] < 72 || bitbuffer->bits_per_row[r] > 73) {
no need for (int16_t) on rain_raw
model must have only one dash, e.g. "EMOS-E6016R"

stomko11 · 2022-03-30T06:32:48Z

@AutomGuy something is definitely going on with either my dvb t tuner that I am testing with, or raspberry, or both. Sometimes I just don't capture any signal. But I don't think this is issue with gauge itself, as when I turn on Emos internal unit in parallel, that always gets right values.
After few attempts, here is example again today, did several swings here and there, working as expected:

At the end, I did 50 swings, but no longer got any report. Seems like issue with my RPI, being underpowered or what. I killed the process and started it again, got the report:

Can we work on Christian's suggestions? I also think it should be your name on the decoder, as you did most of the work :)

AutomGuy · 2022-03-30T06:46:35Z

@zuckschwerdt thx for your notes
have modified the decoder in accordance to your notes.
here is that decoder file emos_e6016_rain.zip
@stomko11 but your name should also on the decoder and @zuckschwerdt christian as well.
@stomko11 you have delivered the codes. @zuckschwerdt christian delivered some important instructions.
last but not least -> to programming the decoder is just pure craftsmanship.

the next step is make a pull request or may be christian can help you out in case you are not familar with pull request

stomko11 · 2022-03-30T07:48:19Z

I compiled using that version, looks good.
I modified it, added @zuckschwerdt and myself as contributor.
