external interrupts consideration

Post by LukeVideo » Tue Jun 11, 2019 8:59 pm

Hy,
I was trying to add a second external interrupt to my code. I thought it might help me get out of the while loop.
So tried to duplicate the way the first external interupt worked
So i added


And i had to comment the machine.disable_irq() and enable machine.enable_irq(state) or i had this terrible message when i triggered the interupt.

Code: Select all


interrupt_counter = 0
total_interrupts_counter = 0
reset_counter_val = 0


def inter_counter(pin):
    global interrupt_counter
    interrupt_counter = interrupt_counter+1


def reset_counter(pin):
    global reset_counter_val
    reset_counter_val = reset_counter_val + 1

def update_led(i):
    zeros = 16 - i
    print(zeros)
    for e in range(zeros):
        clock.value(0)
        data.value(0)
        clock.value(1)
        clock.value(0)
    for e in range(i):
        clock.value(0)
        data.value(1)
        clock.value(1)
        clock.value(0)
    latch.value(0)
    latch.value(1)
    latch.value(0)

    print('did the leds')

    msg = json.dumps({"client_id": CLIENT_ID, "led": i, "event": event})
    sleep(0.1)
    print(msg)
    client.publish(TOPIC, msg)



reed.irq(trigger=Pin.IRQ_RISING, handler=inter_counter)
counter_reset.irq(trigger=Pin.IRQ_FALLING, handler=reset_counter)


while True:
    if interrupt_counter > 0:
        sleep(0.1)
        state = machine.disable_irq()
        interrupt_counter = 0
        machine.enable_irq(state)

        total_interrupts_counter = total_interrupts_counter+1
        print("Interrupt has occurred: " + str(total_interrupts_counter))
        update_led(total_interrupts_counter % 17)

    if reset_counter_val > 1:
        print("reset has occurred: " + str(reset_counter_val))
        sleep(0.1)
        state = machine.disable_irq()
        interrupt_counter = 0
        total_interrupts_counter = 0
        reset_counter_val = 0
        update_led(0)
        machine.enable_irq(state)

Code: Select all

Rebooting.
Did I do something obviously wrong ?

After some research i noticed the guilty line was the MQTT call at the end of my update_led function... so i swapped the two last lines.

Code: Select all

machine.enable_irq(state)
update_led(0)
It's better but both interrupts still seem to interfear with each other ans i cant light up all my leds with the first interupt because in triggers the second one that resets i all...

Probably best not to mess with these.

So i have modified the code a little to keep only one external

Code: Select all

import machine
import json
from machine import Pin
from time import sleep
from umqtt.simple import MQTTClient
from utils.ConnectWifi import connect


try:
    connect()
except:
    print("no connectWifi")


# shift register
clock = Pin(17, Pin.OUT)
clock.value(0)
data = Pin(12, Pin.OUT)
data.value(0)
latch = Pin(13, Pin.OUT)
latch.value(0)
shift_reset = Pin(23, Pin.OUT)
shift_reset.value(1)

# smoothie bike
reed = Pin(39, Pin.IN, Pin.PULL_DOWN)
counter_reset = Pin(38, Pin.IN, Pin.PULL_DOWN)
level_1 = Pin(36, Pin.IN, Pin.PULL_UP)
level_2 = Pin(37, Pin.IN, Pin.PULL_DOWN)



SERVER = '192.168.1.x'  # MQTT Server Address (Change to IP  of your Pi)

CLIENT_ID = 'Spootnik'
TOPIC = b'diodbox'
event = 'unknown_event'
client = MQTTClient(CLIENT_ID, SERVER)
client.connect()   # Connect to MQTT broker


def on_mess(topic, msg):
    print(topic, msg)
    global event
    event = msg

print(event)
client.set_callback(on_mess)
client.subscribe(topic=b"event")
client.wait_msg()

led = [0]

interrupt_counter = 0
total_interrupts_counter = 0
reset_counter_val = 0


def inter_counter(pin):
    print("lol")
    global interrupt_counter
    interrupt_counter = interrupt_counter+1


def reset_counter(pin):
    
    global reset_counter_val
    reset_counter_val = reset_counter_val + 1

def update_led(i):
    zeros = 16 - i
    print(zeros)
    for e in range(zeros):
        clock.value(0)
        data.value(0)
        clock.value(1)
        clock.value(0)
    for e in range(i):
        clock.value(0)
        data.value(1)
        clock.value(1)
        clock.value(0)
    latch.value(0)
    latch.value(1)
    latch.value(0)

    print('did the leds')

    msg = json.dumps({"client_id": CLIENT_ID, "led": i, "event": event})
    sleep(0.1)
    print(msg)
    client.publish(TOPIC, msg)



reed.irq(trigger=Pin.IRQ_RISING, handler=inter_counter)


while True:

    print(counter_reset.value(), interrupt_counter)
    sleep(0.1)
    # if reset_counter_val > 1:
    if counter_reset.value() == 1:
        sleep(0.1)
        # state2 = machine.disable_irq()
        # interrupt_counter = 0
        # machine.enable_irq(state2)
        # total_interrupts_counter = 0
        reset_counter_val = 0
        print("reset has occurred: " + str(reset_counter_val))
        update_led(0)
    if interrupt_counter > 0:
        sleep(0.1)
        state = machine.disable_irq()
        interrupt_counter = 0
        machine.enable_irq(state)

        total_interrupts_counter = total_interrupts_counter+1
        print("Interrupt has occurred: " + str(total_interrupts_counter))
        update_led(total_interrupts_counter % 17)

But still the reset triggered an interrupt. So i changed the Pin of the reset to the pin 22. And all was good.

SO What is wrong with Pin 39 and 38. According to the pin diagram they are both input only and ADC1_* So are all ADC1 triggered together ???

According to my docs for the reference board (ESP32-devkit-C) the two input-only pins associated with ADC1 are GPIO34 and GPIO35. There is no 38 or 39. What board are you using?

I assume you've ensured that the logic 1 level is <=3.3V.

Hy Peter,
i have used the 3.3v outputs and added a 330ohm resistor to avoid any damage.
I'm using the heltec lorawan V2 board
https://heltec.org/project/wifi-lora-32/
the pin out diagram
https://github.com/Heltec-Aaron-Lee/WiF ... _32_V2.pdf

So using two ADC1_* pins (39 38) with an interrupt is problematic as both pins trigger the external interrup.

Using the external interupt on pin 22 works like a charm.
