[FEATURE]: Support for Atlas Scientific PT-1000 Submersible thermometer?

Open victorhooi opened this issue 3 years ago • 7 comments

What do you think about adding support for the Atlas Scientific PT-1000 subermsible thermometer?

https://atlas-scientific.com/kits/pt-1000-temperature-kit/

(I originally saw it referenced on the Mycodo build log).

It's definitely pricier than say, the DS18B20, but it's I2C, industrial-grade, and meant to be quite accurate/reliable.

What do you think?

Also - you'll probably have less chance of fakes/counterfeits - which are rife with the DS18B20:

They are supported in the 4.x.y.z branch :). And all the I2C connected sensors can be used. It is still untested, but there was an example python code: https://github.com/AtlasScientific/Raspberry-Pi-sample-code

But yes, they are not cheap. But then, they are industrial quality hardware which should work well.

So I leave it up to you if you want to buy them.

Got it - that's awesome!

I didn't realise it was already supported =).

Does it make sense to add it to this list then?

Yeah, thinking about getting some - you're right they are pricey though, aha.

Euh, I just added the code. So it is new. The documentation will be updated when I release a new version.

So, it would be nice it you would be able to test it. Else, there is not much more I can do.

Aha, got it - I didn't realised you'd just added - thanks!

I'll see if I can order a PT-1000 sensor and test then.

Just added the documentation also: https://theyosh.github.io/TerrariumPI/hardware/sensor/atlasscientific-i2c-sensor/

Quick update - I've ordered one of these, will update when I get a chance to try it out! =).

Hi, are there any update on this? Did you get a hardware sensor to test with?

Closing this issue as the hardware is tested and working with release 4.6.0
