Multiple wifi moisture sensors in one project
#1
I am planning a project which will include a rain gauge using an ESP 12E acting as a server. I also want to have several capacitive soil moisture sensors in the same project. Since the moisture sensors signals are analog, and the ESP 12E has only one analog input pin, and I want wifi connections from the moisture sensors anyway, to make them easily movable, I plan to use an ESP 12F for each moisture sensor. ESP 12F's are really cheap and have a small physical footprint, making it reasonable to have one for each sensor plus battery in small 3D printed packages. Is it possible to make them send their data to the ESP12F for processing and sending on to the client software on my tablet?

Or am I looking at things all wrong, as usual?

Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,

Kirk

Hi,
I think you want to use the ESP12F as virtuino clients to send data to the Virtuino server ESP12E.
The only you have to do is to send a Get request to to server every some seconds or minutes.

for example if the sensor value is 12.34 you have to send the message
!V01=12.34$


You can find details in this documentation: https://virtuino.com/index.php/virtuino/...and-format
