I was able to compile in ESPHome. Tks!!!

Up and running, thank you!

Hi,
I was searching for a version for Arduino Mega and found this.

Unfortunately it was not working with the latest version of Esphome. I'm not a programmer, but by making a compare beetwen that version and yours, I succeeded to make it work.
I would be nice to make it official and publish in the Esphome site.

I've added the same comment in thebradleysanders github site.

``Hi, I have arduino nano which is using D2, D3...D13 for digital pins. Neither source .h file, nor .ino file let me to compile and use these pins with such numerotation. Only 2-13.
Could you please tell me where or what should I need to change in order to work?
I'm using instructions (first time....) from esphome webpage where is stated this:

ape_binary_output(expander1, 2)

Thanks

Changed board to esp12e and added another power source to arduino. No need to use Dx pins, it works like in documentation.
So is no issue here :)

Perfect, glad you got it working!

Is there a way to get this to support a Rotary Encoder, etc?
Something like this:

sensors:
  - platform: custom
    lambda: |-
      return {ape_sensor(expander1, 2),
              ape_sensor(expander1, 3),
              ape_sensor(expander1, 4)
              };
    sensor:
  # Rotary Encoder
  - platform: rotary_encoder
    name: "Rotary Encoder"
    pin_a: encoderApin
    pin_b: encoderBpin
  # DHT22
  - platform: dht
    pin: dht22pin
    temperature:
      name: "Living Room Temperature"
    humidity:
      name: "Living Room Humidity"
    update_interval: 60s

@NonaSuomy Did you ever figure out how to get a rotary encoder to work?

No I have not, what pin are you using, analog or digital?

@kc9ryt I confirmed with @glmnet and they said it is not currently possible to utilize this library like that as it has no way to link up the encoder stuff in ESPHome with the Arduino port expander. You would have to modify the code base to allow it to accept these functions.

I found another Arduino library that allows you to use Rotary Encoders over I2C but in its current state can't just be utilized like this library by including it and would have to be modified to be properly compatible. I ask the maintainer if it was possible to do something like this. They said they may be able to look into it unfortunately their health faltered and couldn't look into it.

Is there a new code compatible with Home Assistant 2023.8.2. if not, is it possible to modify the code ?

This should work with latest HA and latest ESPHome, I’m still using it. If you need help go to discord server and ask there. When something doesn’t work you should say what the issue is otherwise nobody will know and won’t be able to help you.

How can I use this arduino port expander to read a dallas sensor ds18b20 connected to pin D2? is it a binary?

How can I use this arduino port expander to read a dallas sensor ds18b20 connected to pin D2? is it a binary?

Not possible

I am using this ino and h file for my ESPHome project.

I have described my Problem here: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/arduino-port-expander-problem-with-analog-and-digital-inputs/640313/2 and I think I have solved the Problem by myself by uncomment this line: https://gist.github.com/glmnet/49ca3d6a9742fc3649f4fbdeaa4cdf5d#file-arduino_port_expander-h-L180

I can use now both Pins (for example D3 for Output and A3 for Analog Input)

can you try the external component version?

it seems custom components are not going to be supported so I created this new version, I'm actively using for binary sensors and outputs, but did also try analog sensors and seems to work.

The arduino code is the same, no need to update it

you need to remove the - include on esphome: and see this example below:

I am embarking on a project in which I need to use H711X, which is natively supported by esphome but I do not have more pins for it.

I have quite a few sensors connected via I2C and when I saw this component arduino_port_expander that allows you to expand I/O ports via I2C I thought it would be a very good option.

I had a pro mini lying around the house so I decided to upload the sketch and connect it to the esp32c3.

I currently do not have the H711X, since I am considering the possibility of using it via I2C, but I have a DHT11 at home and I decided to test if the arduino_port_expander component allows me to control it.

First I did tests by configuring an output associated with pin 13 of the Arduino and I was able to control the LED from home assistant perfectly.

Once I verified that arduino_port_expander was working correctly I decided to try the DHT11. First I had to modify the DHT11 component so that it allowed the arduino_port_expander pins to be configured and not just the internal ones of the esp32 running esphome. Change InternalGPIOPin to GPIOPin

in yaml:

arduino_port_expander:
  id: ape1 # must identify somehow to later use
  i2c_id: tca9548a_ch0
  address: 0x08
  analog_reference: DEFAULT

sensor:
  - platform: dht
    pin:
      arduino_port_expander: ape1
      number: 2
    temperature:
      name: "Living Room Temperature"
    humidity:
      name: "Living Room Humidity"
    update_interval: 60s

Unfortunately, although it compiles perfectly, on boot it causes bootloop (I imagine due to wdt)

It seems that the sensors where communication is time critical do not work through I/O I2C expanders.

Still, arduino_port_expander is a cool component.

Thank you!

I forgot to mention here I created a new repo for this. See here

@fran6120 thats a nice story but the end was predicted. If you’re short on pins you can try to use the expander for simple io pins, eg relays switches and save internal gpio for sensors which requiere fast io pins. (And also switching pin mode from input to output quickly)

Hi, do you know about the Problem, that neighborhood Analog Inuts have wrong values.

I want to read some of those Sensors: https://de.aliexpress.com/item/1005004819365767.html

Reading a single Sensor has no problems (eg A0). But if I add a second one to A1, the voltage is much higher as its really is.

I have no really solution.

On some Formthreads, they write, that you have to read the ANalog Pin twice and only use the second result:

https://forum.arduino.cc/t/analog-input-affected-by-its-neighbor/88758
or
https://forum.arduino.cc/t/cross-voltages-from-neighbor-analog-input/178708

That’s interesting. Didn’t know

you can try using update interval: none on the sensor s so you disable automatic polling. Then write an interval script which will call component update on the sensors, eg call it twice in A0 and the pick the value on the second call then call twice A1

Do you have a small example for me? I will test it shortly.

This does disables polling and calls to update explicitly

https://github.com/glmnet/esphome_devices/blob/master/my_home/eh-energia.yaml

You might want to create another template sensor which you’ll set the value you read the second time

Thank you,

I think I got it.

I added a dummy analogRead() to the arduino Script before the reading for publishing.

Also I found a thread: firmata/arduino#334 (comment)

I also have added a interval Script to my yaml, to read the Analog Sensors in the correct sequence

  - interval: 60s
    then:
      - component.update: analog_input_3_humidity
      - delay: 1s
      - component.update: analog_input_3_voltage
      - delay: 10s
      - component.update: analog_input_4_humidity
      - delay: 1s
      - component.update: analog_input_4_voltage
      - delay: 10s
      - component.update: analog_input_5_humidity
      - delay: 1s
      - component.update: analog_input_5_voltage
      - delay: 10s
      - component.update: analog_input_6_humidity
      - delay: 1s
      - component.update: analog_input_6_voltage
      - delay: 10s
      - component.update: analog_input_1_humidity
      - delay: 1s
      - component.update: analog_input_1_voltage
      - delay: 10s
      - component.update: analog_input_2_humidity
      - delay: 1s
      - component.update: analog_input_2_voltage```

Now I will test it for a couple of Days :-)

Hola buen dia. Existe la manera de usar el sensor dht11 conectado en arduino. Soy nuevo en esto y no he encontrado la manera.

Hello i am trying to use Arduino Port Expander in my home project where reliability is really important .

As a test, temporary I braked the i2c line between the port expander and the esp device. I got a following error immediately (which is good) :

[E][component:112]: Component was marked as failed.
And never recovered (that is not good).

I wonder how can this made more robust? eg. after the transient is gone should recover by them self.

Thank you

Hello everyone,

I have a little dumb question, I have it all working (the first version was working for me here),
but .... if the i2c bus hangs for some reason, I know the command to reset the ESP8266 ---> "- platform: restart",
but not the NANO (in my case) ... (so the i2c bus won't reset), is there a easy way to reset the NANO too in that same command ?

GreetingZzz

lol ... I see it now, @balazs111 has the same question :-)

Hello,

here is the solution: https://community.home-assistant.io/t/arduino-port-expander-i2c-connection-not-recover-after-failure/745984
In the end decided to use modbus because i needed to breach a longer distance what i2c was not able to handle
