LILYGO TTGO LoRa32 V2.1_1.6 433 MHz + Oil Watchman

Sensors

Hello, I was hoping to replace an RTL SDR and RPi with OpenMQTTGateway. Is the Oil Watchman device supported? I see it mentioned here: rtl_433_ESP.

Thanks for your help and advice.

Ok, so using this *_env.ini I’m seeing sensor in the console, but it’s not appearing in Homeassistant

[platformio]
default_envs = 
  esp32_lilygo

[env]

[env:esp32_lilygo]
platform = ${com.esp32_platform}
board = ttgo-lora32-v21
; ~/.platformio/packages/framework-arduinoespressif32/variants/.../pins_arduino.h
board_build.partitions = min_spiffs.csv
lib_deps =
  ${com-esp32.lib_deps}
  ${libraries.ssd1306}
  ${libraries.rtl_433_ESP}
build_flags =
  ${com-esp32.build_flags}

; rtl_433_ESP flag 
; '-DLOG_LEVEL=LOG_LEVEL_TRACE'
  '-DONBOARD_LED=LED_BUILTIN'          ; Onboard LED is GPIO 25 on the Heltec Board
  '-DOOK_MODULATION=false'       ; False is FSK, True is OOK
  '-DRF_MODULE_FREQUENCY=433.92'
  '-DRF_SX1276="SX1276"'

; *** OpenMQTTGateway Config ***
  '-UZmqttDiscovery'          ; disables MQTT Discovery
  '-DvalueAsATopic=true'    ; MQTT topic includes model and device
  '-DGateway_Name="OMG_ESP32_LILYGO"'  ; MQTT Client Name
; *** OpenMQTTGateway Modules ***
  '-DZgatewayRTL_433="rtl_433"'
  '-DZradioSX127x="SX1276"'
; *** ssd1306 Display Options ***
  '-DZdisplaySSD1306="LilyGo_SSD1306"'
;   -DLOG_TO_OLED=true'         ; Enable log to OLED
;  '-DJSON_TO_OLED=true'
;  '-DLOG_LEVEL_OLED=LOG_LEVEL_NOTICE'
;  '-DDISPLAY_IDLE_LOGO=false'
;  '-DDISPLAY_BRIGHTNESS=80'
;  '-DDISPLAY_METRIC=false'

I’ll keep trying…

This seems to be working for me now.

Glad you got it working

Thanks. Is there a plan for these other devices to be included in a future version?

In the fall I’m going to be working on updates to the WebUI to allow for some rtl_433_ESP settings to be controlled.
