Develop wrapper for Meter Teros 11 Soil Moisture Sensors
The Meter Group purchased Decagon about a year ago, and just recently stopped selling the 5TM soil moisture sensor, replacing it with the Teros 11 Soil Moisture + Temperature sensor, which uses a more robust construction design that Decagon had been piloting.
Unfortunately @Volk3rJ discovered that the SDI-12 commands are no longer the same. These differences include:
- A change in the sensor response, where the Teros 11 gives raw counts rather than EA values as 1st of 2 returned variables. See https://github.com/LimnoTech/EnviroDIY_deployments/commit/23a6f688ae6edadf3a5e91030296bd79364fc9c4
- A change in the SDI-12 timing, which gives lots of errors when more than one Teros 11 sensor is attached to the same Mayfly.
@Volk3rJ partially solved #2 by placing the sensor-variables as far apart as possible in the variables array. He also noticed some hints of these differences in the TEROS 11/12 INTEGRATOR GUIDE and the TEROS 11/12 USER MANUAL.
Regarding the SDI-12 timing issue:
The sensor that gets called first responds normal, the sensor called second only reads error values (or maybe doesn't respond at all?). I partially fixed this by calling modem RSSI and other values in the array between 1. and 2. sensor. This curiously works for one of my stations but not for another!
I also tried to increase the sensor delays and timings in the 5TM.h file without any luck
@Volk3rJ, as you might have noticed above, I have this working with two Teros 11 sensors. I made a couple of timing tweaks relative to what you did, so I'm not sure what solved it.
Also, my station with two Teros 11 sensors does not also have a MaxSonar (but it does have a BME280), so that is also worth testing.
Note that the timing issues here popped up again for @shepardb when he updated the ModularSensors library on a station deployed with 2 Teros 11 sensors that had been working fine for a year.
Reopening and looping @GArrigotti-cws into this issue, so we can fix this issue that has returned since Modular Sensors versions >0.25ish (@shepardb noticed it summer of 2020).
The changes I just made with v0.28.4 might help this. I made the time between the SDI-12 break and the actual command settable per sensor. I discovered with the newest Meter sensor we got, it was not responding properly with even the 10ms delay I'd added for the RDO. I set the delay for the Teros (and 5TM) back to 0, which is what it was back in 2019. If it doesn't fix the problem, it at least gives one other aspect of the timing that you can try to tweak to see what works.
For any sensor that reports back a manufacturer of "METER" I also added code to turn off the DDI serial output string. If the sensor isn't at the factory default address of 0, it shouldn't be putting out the string anyway, but it seem safer to turn it off just in case it was causing extra garbage on the SDI-12 line.
@SRGDamia1 I did tweak a couple of those and still had some issues, I'll see if that change in modular sensors partially rectifies.
@GArrigotti-cws - it's a bit of a long-shot, but maybe it changes something.
In the 'tools' section of the SDI12 library there are a few scripts that I made to test sensor timing - basically repeating everything over and over with slight changes to the warm-up, wake delay, etc. They might help.
@SRGDamia1, thank you so much for describing these issues and making the new release!
As @GArrigotti-cws, mentioned, a couple of weeks ago the two of us modified the Teros 11 timing settings in src/sensors/MeterTeros11.h:
/// @brief Sensor::_warmUpTime_ms; the Teros 11 warm-up time in SDI-12 mode:
/// 245ms typical
#define TEROS11_WARM_UP_TIME_MS 250
/// @brief Sensor::_stabilizationTime_ms; the Teros 11 is stable after 50ms.
#define TEROS11_STABILIZATION_TIME_MS 50
/// @brief Sensor::_measurementTime_ms; the Teros 11 takes25 ms to 50 ms to
/// complete a measurement.
#define TEROS11_MEASUREMENT_TIME_MS 50
I think we increased the warm time to seconds, but it didn't make a difference.
If I understand correctly, with this commit https://github.com/EnviroDIY/ModularSensors/commit/a6eee7595b4b3cbe55df761818ac3759dda5d137#diff-c2718078e9b993d65131fd0cc535a573e7e2d2130591c9a77021d3f7519ae383
you added this:
/// @brief Extra wake time required for an SDI-12 sensor between the "break"
/// and the time the command is sent. The Terros-11 requires no extra time.
#define TEROS11_EXTRA_WAKE_TIME_MS 0
and that we might want to try increasing it from 0 to 10 ms or maybe higher. Is that right?
@GArrigotti-cws, the other thing we'll try is to power the Teros 11 with 5V. I just learned from @SRGDamia1 that the Mayfly's ATmega1284p microprocessor can actually handle up to 6V.
To protect the Mayfly, we've always powered Meter sensors at 3.3V to match the Mayfly's voltage. Although most Meter sensors say they need a minimum power of 3.6 V to 4.0 V, we have found that they operate fine at 3.3. However, maybe the Teros 11 is more sensitive at low voltage. Also, it's stated minimum is 4.0 V, unlike many of the others that list 3.6V.
See http://publications.metergroup.com/Integrator%20Guide/18224%20TEROS%2011-12%20Integrator%20Guide.pdf
Yes, you could try increasing the extra wake time. For a long time it was zero, then I bumped it up to 10ms for the RDO. I found the newest Meter sensors did not respond consistently with the delay so I made it an argument so it could be set back to 0 for the Meter sensors.
The extra wire time applies to every SDI12 command sent to the device. Since the whole SDI12 is designed for environmental sensors; the sensors are required to go to sleep any time except when they are being addressed or measuring. The sensors are required to be ready to listen for a new command within 100 ms of a "break" and "marking" on the SDI12 line. The Meter sensors don't need any of that 100ms, they're ready within the space of the break and marking. The newest CTD we got actually was a little flaky when given the extra time. I think some of the Campbell sensors need the full 100ms.
So, for a Meter sensor, I suspect the right amount of time is 0, but you can try increasing it. It should never be over 100.
Also, the maximum voltage on a pin for the 1284p is dependent on the voltage it's powered at; it should be no more than 0.5V higher than the power voltage. The Mayfly powers it with 3.3V, so the pin max is 3.8V. It's as much voltage differential as absolute voltage. The very maximum power voltage it can handle is 6V, but that's not what the Mayfly has. So, while I really don't think short pulses like SDI12 at over voltage are really likely to be problematic, I definitely would not recommend regularly subjecting the Mayfly pins to 5V for long periods of time.
@SRGDamia1, that's a very helpful explanation! Thanks.
I just looked again at the Meter Teros 11-12 Integrators Guide, and it says that output voltage is typically 3.6V!
I had thought the SDI-12 specification was 5V for SDI-12 sensors, and presumed the Teros 11 followed that.
So for the Meter Teros 11 or 12 sensors, even if they are powered at ~12V, their digital high signals should still be ~3.6V.
The Meter Hydros 21/CTD Integrators Guide shows the digital output voltage of ~ 3.6V.
So, it seems we should be powering these Meter sensors at 5V.
(EDIT oops just reading on and Sara said the same thing) Hello I'm wondering where the info on the mega1284 handling up to 6V (on a input pin from SDI-12?) came from. I read from the data sheet for the Mayfly it would be a max of 3.8V?
In the data sheet I've been using from the BOM ATMEGA1284P_VQFN44 or ATMEGA1284P-MU it says the Absolute maximum ratings, Voltage on any pin except RESET is to Vcc+0.5V. Mayfly Vcc is 3.3V, so that would mean a max of 3.8V on any input pin. It does say that the Maximum operating voltage is 6.0V, Vcc can be 1.8Vto5.5V, and DC Current per I/O pin 40mA - though test conditions for 3V is a sink of 10mA
https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/en/DeviceDoc/ATmega164A_PA-324A_PA-644A_PA-1284_P_Data-Sheet-40002070B.pdf
Reading the Meter Teros 11 spec, it does fit with what SDI-12 spec.
I would say for reliability and repeatability you want to power it with 4V or more per the Meter Teros 11 spec. It may work at a lower voltage in the lab, but might not across all operating voltages of -40C to +60C.
The SDI-12specs says the data-line should exceed 3.5V ... but may be up to 5.5V - that fits with the Teros 11 Typical 3.6V. Teros 11 would still be in spec to supply 5.5V (maybe this only happens on a blue-moon at -10C, but would still be in specification - but might cause problems for the Mayfly ) or maybe it never happens due to circuit design.
My understanding of crimping the specifications, is that you may get something working in nice conditions indoors, but what happens in the great outdoors.
My tradeoff is to limit the current into the Mayfly with a series R ~ not totally correct, but seems like its closer to the requirements of what is needed. That is also the SDI-12 recommended surge protection
@neilh10, just be clear, I had misunderstood the comment from @SRGDamia1 about the Mayfly's 1284p being able to handle 6V. She clarified in https://github.com/EnviroDIY/ModularSensors/issues/276#issuecomment-833143534 that the 1284p is only specified for that voltage if it is also powered near that voltage, and that the plus/minus 0.5V is still the spec.
Thanks also for noticing that extra info about SDI-12 voltage ranges.
It's clear that I should try powering these sensors with 5V.
@GArrigotti-cws and I are testing right now. Seems like 5V help a bit. We now have both sensors working in Sensor Testing Mode, but only one works in regular logging mode.
Update from testing this afternoon:
- Sensor Testing Mode is buggy, and hasn't been working since we started playing with turning on debugging.
- When we Define
MS_VARIABLEARRAY_DEBUG, suddenly we got both sensors to work. Only one sensor at a time was reporting when it was not defined.- NOTE that
MS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUGshowed that both sensors were responding. However, even withTEROS11_WARM_UP_TIME_MS 10000, the first sensor in the list would not ever respond on the first try.
- NOTE that
Here's the example of it working with both debug statements defined:

Oddly enough, in if you put it into sensor testing mode now both sensors will work. We increased our wake time to five to ten seconds, but it will fail in normal logging interval. But will will allow the normal interval to work if you enable the variable array debug in the .ini file. @aufdenkampe will post my output- Still really odd.
@SRGDamia1, we've found a bug where we can only read 1 of 2 Teros11 sensors unless we have defined MS_VARIABLEARRAY_DEBUG. As soon as we do, both sensors read fine in the same sketch. When we don't define MS_VARIABLEARRAY_DEBUG, both sensors work on their own when the other is unplugged, but when both are plugged in, one or the other will not produce results.
Any ideas on what might be causing this bug?
I plan on working on this tomorrow (thanks @GArrigotti-cws for sending me two Teros11 sensors), so I could do specific testing.
No, scanning all the debugging prints, I don't see anything in the variable array debug that would lead to that. It's particularly odd because if it was an error there, I'd guess we'd have seen it much earlier.
Do you have your SDI-12 addresses set one after the other or are they spaced out? I find sometimes the sensors get confused if I use "1" and "2" but putting space between them (ie "1" and "4") helps. I suspect that has something to do with the not-quite-exactly-perfect timing in the SDI-12 library due to bit-banging and interrupt hand-offs.
Could you please post turn on debugging for SDI-12 and the Terros and then post the full log from a couple of readings with and without the variable array debug? Obviously the output from the latter will be much longer than the former, but I should be able to line them up and see more of what's going on.
ie, first use and post output from :
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG_DEEP
-DMS_METERTEROS11_DEBUG
then use and post output from:
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG_DEEP
-DMS_METERTEROS11_DEBUG
-DMS_VARIABLEARRAY_DEBUG
@SRGDamia1 Here should be the information, I have the address one and six. I also placed sensor one at the top of the variable array and moved the other one to the bottom. @aufdenkampe and I did play with some of the timing issues also in varying configurations.
const char* teros11SDI12address = "1";
const int8_t terosPower = sensorPowerPin;
const int8_t terosData = 7;
const uint8_t teros11NumberReadings = 3;
MeterTeros11 teros11(*teros11SDI12address, terosPower, terosData, teros11NumberReadings);
const char* teros11_2SDI12address = "6";
MeterTeros11 teros11_2(*teros11_2SDI12address, terosPower, terosData, teros11NumberReadings);

@GArrigotti-cws Could your turn on SDI-12 deep and Terrow (-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG_DEEP -DMS_METERTEROS11_DEBUG) and post two different logs, running exactly the same program, one with -DMS_VARIABLEARRAY_DEBUG and one without?
@SRGDamia1 Here are all three separate logs.

@GArrigotti-cws I'm sorry, I really want two logs,
-
one with 3 debug flags (
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUGand-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUGand-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG_DEEP) -
and the second with 4 debug flags (
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUGand-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUGand-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG_DEEPand-DMS_VARIABLEARRAY_DEBUG)
I want to see the raw SDI-12 commands and responses both with and without the variable array debug. What you posted with the variable array debug doesn't have the SDI-12 command/response, so I can't see what's different.
Looking at the "Just Meter Teros" file, it looks like everything worked fine. Both sensors responded separately and you got different values in your csv for each.
@SRGDamia1 The other file you requested.

Yeah, I noticed that. Not entirely sure why though, the same code is having very different outputs.
The problem isn't with the sensors not responding, it's with the volumetric water content.
@SRGDamia1 But if I disable the debugging libraries then output is very, very different for the results saved to the SD Card. Same everything,

@GArrigotti-cws and @SRGDamia1, thanks for working on this!
Greg, Sara is asking for you to share with her the debug output when it fails. That's what she needs to see to figure out what is wrong.
Run it once with your platformio.ini file build flags like this, and save output to a text file called 4DebugFlags.txt.
build_flags =
-D SDI12_EXTERNAL_PCINT
-D NEOSWSERIAL_EXTERNAL_PCINT
-D TINY_GSM_RX_BUFFER=64
-D TINY_GSM_YIELD_MS=2
-D MQTT_MAX_PACKET_SIZE=240
-DMS_METERTEROS11_DEBUG
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG_DEEP
-DMS_VARIABLEARRAY_DEBUG
Then run it again with the last line commented out, and save output to a text file called 3DebugFlags.txt.
build_flags =
-D SDI12_EXTERNAL_PCINT
-D NEOSWSERIAL_EXTERNAL_PCINT
-D TINY_GSM_RX_BUFFER=64
-D TINY_GSM_YIELD_MS=2
-D MQTT_MAX_PACKET_SIZE=240
-DMS_METERTEROS11_DEBUG
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG
-DMS_SDI12SENSORS_DEBUG_DEEP
