# Sensorpajen # Sensorpajen
Raspberry Pi Zero W som läser av diverse mätere och rapporterar data till MQTT.
Använder Xiaomi Mijia thermometer 2 samt inbyggd DHT11 sensor
## Bluetooth termometrarna Raspberry Pi service that monitors Xiaomi Mijia LYWSD03MMC Bluetooth temperature sensors and publishes data to MQTT.
- LYWSD03MMC.py - script för att läsa av Mi Mijia Thermometer 2
- sensorer.ini - config till LYWSD03MMC
- sendToMQTT.sh - stödscript till LYWSD03MMC
- bluetooth_utils.py - stödscript till LYWSD03MMC
## Sensorer i pajen ## Features
- temperatur_koksfonstret.py - Läser av DHT 11 sensor kopplad till Pi, används av cron
- sensorer.sh - script för att starta tmux vid boot, används av cron - 🌡️ Monitors 8 Xiaomi Mijia thermometers via Bluetooth (ATC firmware)
- 📡 Publishes temperature, humidity, and battery data to MQTT
## Cronjobb - 🔄 Automatic restart on failure
``` - 📊 Systemd service with journald logging
@reboot /home/pi/sensorer.sh - 🔧 Modern Python package with virtual environment
*/1 * * * * /home/pi/temperatur_koksfonstret.py 11 4 - ⚙️ Configuration via environment variables and JSON
## Requirements
- Raspberry Pi (tested on Raspberry Pi Zero W and newer)

See [SETUP_ON_PI.md](SETUP_ON_PI.md) for complete installation instructions.
### Quick Start
```bash
# Clone repository
git clone <repo-url> ~/sensorpajen
cd ~/sensorpajen
# Create and activate virtual environment
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
# Install dependencies
pip install -e .
# Configure
cp config/sensorpajen.env.example config/sensorpajen.env
cp config/sensors.json.example config/sensors.json
nano config/sensorpajen.env # Edit MQTT settings
nano config/sensors.json # Edit sensor MAC addresses
# Set Bluetooth capabilities
sudo setcap 'cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin+eip' $(readlink -f .venv/bin/python3)
# Install systemd service
mkdir -p ~/.config/systemd/user/
cp systemd/sensorpajen.service ~/.config/systemd/user/
systemctl --user daemon-reload
sudo loginctl enable-linger $USER
# Start service
systemctl --user enable sensorpajen
systemctl --user start sensorpajen
# Check status
systemctl --user status sensorpajen
journalctl --user -u sensorpajen -f
``` ```
## Flasha nya termometrar ## Configuration
- Öppna och flasha bara en termometer i taget!! ### MQTT Settings
- Ha en permanent marker tillgänglig
- Flashning måste göras från en mobil
1. Ta reda på termometerns mac-adress med någon bra app för Bluetooth BLE . Den heter något i stil med LYWSD03MMC (Om du bara startat en termometer så är det lätt att hitta) Edit `config/sensorpajen.env`:
2. Ladda ned senaste releasen av firmware här: https://github.com/atc1441/ATC_MiThermometer
3. Öppna den här webbsidan: https://atc1441.github.io/TelinkFlasher.html ```bash
4. Tryck på Connect och sök upp den aktiva termometern. Den heter något i stil med LYWSD03MMC MQTT_HOST=192.168.1.10
5. Gör Do Activation och när den hittat Select Firmarware Start Flashing MQTT_PORT=1883
6. Anteckna mac-adressen från (1) och sätt ett id på termometern. Det ska senare in i filen sensorer.ini MQTT_USERNAME=username
7. Verifiera i din BLE läsare att termometern nu heter något i stil med ATC_XXXXXX. Om du missade att anteckna mac-adressen så är första delen alltid A4:C1:38 och XXXXXX i namnet är de sista tre delarna MQTT_PASSWORD=password
MQTT_CLIENT_ID=sensorpajen
MQTT_TOPIC_PREFIX=MiTemperature2
```
### Sensors
Edit `config/sensors.json`:
```json
[
{
"mac": "A4:C1:38:12:34:56",
"name": "Living Room"
},
{
"mac": "A4:C1:38:AB:CD:EF",
"name": "Bedroom"
}
]
```
## Service Management
See [systemd/README.md](systemd/README.md) for detailed service management instructions.
```bash
# Start/stop service
systemctl --user start sensorpajen
systemctl --user stop sensorpajen
# Enable/disable autostart
systemctl --user enable sensorpajen
systemctl --user disable sensorpajen
# View status
systemctl --user status sensorpajen
# View logs
journalctl --user -u sensorpajen -f
journalctl --user -u sensorpajen -n 100
```
## Flashing New Thermometers
**Important**: Flash only one thermometer at a time!
1. **Find MAC address**: Use a Bluetooth BLE app to find the thermometer's MAC address. It will appear as `LYWSD03MMC`.
2. **Download firmware**: Get the latest ATC firmware from https://github.com/atc1441/ATC_MiThermometer
3. **Flash firmware**:
- Open https://atc1441.github.io/TelinkFlasher.html on your phone
- Click "Connect" and select your thermometer (LYWSD03MMC)
- Click "Do Activation"
- When found, select firmware and click "Start Flashing"
4. **Record MAC address**: Note the MAC address (from step 1) and label the thermometer physically with a permanent marker.
5. **Add to configuration**: Add the MAC address and name to `config/sensors.json`
6. **Verify**: The thermometer should now appear as `ATC_XXXXXX` where XXXXXX are the last 3 bytes of the MAC address. MAC addresses always start with `A4:C1:38`.

## Troubleshooting
### Permission Denied Errors
If you see `PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted`:
```bash
# Verify capabilities are set
getcap $(readlink -f ~/sensorpajen/.venv/bin/python3)
# Should show: cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw+eip
# If not, set them:
sudo setcap 'cap_net_raw,cap_net_admin+eip' $(readlink -f ~/sensorpajen/.venv/bin/python3)
# Restart service
systemctl --user restart sensorpajen
```
### Service Won't Start
```bash
# Check service status
systemctl --user status sensorpajen
# View logs
journalctl --user -u sensorpajen -n 50
# Common issues:
# - Missing config files (check config/ directory)
# - Wrong MQTT credentials (check config/sensorpajen.env)
# - Bluetooth not enabled (sudo systemctl start bluetooth)
```
### MQTT Connection Issues
```bash
# Test MQTT connection
mosquitto_sub -h <MQTT_HOST> -u <USERNAME> -P <PASSWORD> -t "MiTemperature2/#" -v
# Check logs for connection errors
journalctl --user -u sensorpajen | grep -i mqtt
```
### No Sensor Data
```bash
# Check if sensors are visible
sudo hcitool lescan
# Verify sensor MAC addresses in config/sensors.json
# Make sure sensors have ATC firmware flashed
# Check battery level (low battery can cause connection issues)
```
## Development
```bash
# Clone and setup
git clone <repo-url> ~/sensorpajen
cd ~/sensorpajen
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .
# Run directly (without systemd)
python -m sensorpajen.main
# Run tests (when available)
pytest
```
