# Advanced Features Guide
This guide covers advanced features and customization options for your ESP32 Energy Meter project.
## 🚀 Overview
The ESP32 Energy Meter project includes several advanced features that can be enabled and customized based on your specific requirements:
- **OLED Burn-in Protection**: Prevents screen damage from static content
- **Enhanced WiFi Monitoring**: Accurate connectivity status monitoring
- **Custom Display Layouts**: Flexible display configuration
- **Advanced Sensor Filtering**: Noise reduction and smoothing
- **MQTT Integration**: Alternative to Home Assistant API
- **Remote Configuration**: Dynamic parameter adjustment
## 🔄 OLED Burn-in Protection
### Current Implementation
The project includes automatic screen clearing to prevent OLED burn-in:
```yaml
lambda: !lambda |-
// Time integration for burn-in protection
time_t now = id(homeassistant_time).now().timestamp;
// Clear screen every 30 minutes to prevent OLED burn-in
if (now % 1800 == 0) { // Every 30 minutes
it.clear();
return; // Exit early to prevent drawing during clear
}
// Rest of display logic...
```
### Customizable Parameters
```yaml
# Modify burn-in protection interval
lambda: !lambda |-
time_t now = id(homeassistant_time).now().timestamp;
// Custom interval: every 10 minutes (600 seconds)
if (now % 600 == 0) {
it.clear();
return;
}
// Alternative: Screen saver mode after 60 minutes
static bool screen_saver = false;
if (now > 3600 && !screen_saver) {
screen_saver = true;
// Display logo or blank screen
}
```
### Advanced Burn-in Protection
```yaml
# Enhanced burn-in protection with rotation
lambda: !lambda |-
time_t now = id(homeassistant_time).now().timestamp;
// Clear screen every 15 minutes
if (now % 900 == 0) {
it.clear();
return;
}
// Rotate display content every 30 minutes to distribute wear
static int rotation_counter = 0;
if (now % 1800 == 0) {
rotation_counter++;
it.clear();
}
// Draw based on rotation
switch (rotation_counter % 3) {
case 0:
// Standard layout
it.printf(it.get_width()/2, 38, id(baloo_32_700), TextAlign::CENTER, "%.1f W", id(power2).state);
break;
case 1:
// Compact layout
it.printf(it.get_width()/2, 20, id(baloo_18_700), TextAlign::CENTER, "Power: %.1fW", id(power2).state);
it.printf(it.get_width()/2, 40, id(baloo_18_700), TextAlign::CENTER, "Voltage: %.1fV", id(voltage2).state);
break;
case 2:
// Detailed layout with additional info
it.printf(it.get_width()/2, 20, id(baloo_18_700), TextAlign::CENTER, "P:%.1fW V:%.1fV", id(power2).state, id(voltage2).state);

## 🔍 Troubleshooting Integration
### Common Issues
#### Entities Not Appearing
- **Check API key**: Ensure correct API key in Home Assistant
- **Verify network**: Confirm ESP32 and HA are on same network
- **Restart integration**: Try removing and re-adding ESP32 integration
#### Missing Energy Data
- **Check state class**: Ensure energy sensors have `state_class: total`
- **Verify device class**: Use `device_class: energy` for energy measurements
- **Check recorder**: Ensure statistics are being recorded
#### Dashboard Not Loading
- **Enable statistics**: Statistics must be enabled for energy dashboard
- **Check configuration**: Verify energy sources are properly configured
- **Restart Home Assistant**: Sometimes needed after major changes
### Debug Commands
```bash
# Check ESPHome device status
esphome logs esp32-energy-meter.yaml --device 192.168.1.100
# Monitor ESP32 serial output
esphome logs esp32-energy-meter.yaml --serial /dev/ttyUSB0
# Check Home Assistant logs
tail -f /config/home-assistant.log
```
