A vs X
I’ve just confirmed that live sensor data going from the Uno using my new SenPak format is being received and parsed correctly by the NodeMCU. My next trick will be getting the information from the NodeMCU to appear on the LCD. Before I get started on that though, I had a bit of a brainstorm how my SenPak data should be organized, handled and uploaded to the spreadsheet.
I’m thinking that the regularly scheduled environmental data updates (Temperature, humidity, soil moisture, etc) would be sent on a schedule governed by the RTC, and sent as SenPakA.
SenPakX on the other hand would be an upload of “on demand” data from sources such as the pH and TDS sensors, and would be triggered by the touch of a button when the probes are in place.
