// Dynamic Electricity Ticker for XIAO ESP32C3 - VERSION 5.5 (15-MINUTE DETAIL MODE)
|
||||
// ========================================================================
|
||||
//
|
||||
// This code fetches real-time day-ahead electricity prices from
|
||||
// Energy-Charts.info for Slovenia, calculates the final consumer price
|
||||
// with power company fees and VAT, and displays the rates on a 20x4 LCD.
|
||||
//
|
||||
// VERSION 5.5 NEW FEATURES:
|
||||
// - **15-MINUTE DETAIL MODE:** Primary display now shows current hour average,
|
||||
// followed by the 4 individual 15-minute values in compact format (XX XX XX XX),
|
||||
// then the next 2 hours. This provides both hourly overview and 15-min precision.
|
||||
// - **LED responds to current 15-minute interval** instead of hourly average
|
||||
// for more precise price indication.
|
||||
// - **Compact price format:** 15-minute values shown as 2-digit hundredths
|
||||
// (e.g., "+99 -07 24 11" for prices like 0.99, -0.07, 0.24, 0.11 EUR/kWh)
|
||||
//
|
||||
// All previous features from V5.4 are retained (aggressive retry, state enforcement, etc.)

// Hardware Configuration & Wiring Instructions:

// ------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
//
|
||||
// PUSHBUTTON (DEFAULT CONFIGURATION):
|
||||
// - Connect one leg to GPIO 4, other to GND
|
||||
// - Uses internal pull-up, no external resistor needed
|
||||
//
|
||||
// ALTERNATIVE: TTP223 CAPACITIVE TOUCH BUTTON:
|
||||
// - If you prefer a capacitive touch button instead of mechanical pushbutton:
|
||||
// WIRING:
|
||||
// - VCC to 3.3V power rail
|
||||
// - GND to GND
|
||||
// - OUT to GPIO 4 (same pin as pushbutton)
|
||||
// CODE CHANGES REQUIRED:
|
||||
// - Find line: "int reading = digitalRead(buttonPin);"
|
||||
// - Change to: "int reading = !digitalRead(buttonPin);"
|
||||
// - This inverts the logic since TTP223 outputs HIGH when touched,
|
||||
// while pushbutton pulls LOW when pressed
|
||||
// - No other changes needed - all timing and debounce logic remains the same
|
||||
// BENEFITS:
|
||||
// - No mechanical wear, sealed operation
|
||||
// - Can be mounted behind thin non-metallic panels
|
||||
// - More modern, sleek appearance
|
||||
//
|
||||
// PRESENCE SENSOR (RCWL-0516):
|
||||
// - VCC to 3.3V, GND to GND, OUT to GPIO 9
|
||||
// - REQUIRED: 10kOhm pull-down resistor between GPIO 9 and GND
|
||||
// - Can be hidden behind non-metallic surfaces
|
||||
//
|
||||
// WHITE LED:
|
||||
// - Connect to GPIO 5 (with appropriate resistor)
|
||||
// - Provides visual price indication
