I allready have a tag scanner and it works awesome!
I ordered one a while ago and it’s still in Luxemburg post… It’s in Transit, so it’s not stuck or ad the customs.

It’s been sitting there for a week now. So i’m wondering when it will be deliverd.
Can you reach out to me please?

I used a cat5 Cable and it worked my sensors are 3m apart (10feet) on one cable no issues
I must admit mine is currently offline due to me hanging a rack above the roof

My project is only going to use 2 ultrasonic sensors.

I’ve been testing everything on a breadboard. I can only use a cable about 8″ long between the sensor and the D1 which will be fine for the first sensor but will not at all work for the sensor over car 2.

I’m using Cat-6 cable between the sensor and the D1.

Should I try something else?

I’ve had all sorts of problems with these. I’m getting 1.12 cm no matter if my car is in the garage under the sensor or not. I’ve tried 3 different sensors and 3 different ESP boards and I’ve used Home Assistant and Tasmota. It’s the same with everything. I can’t understand what I’m doing wrong. I’m only using 2 sensors centered above each vehicle.

– platform: ultrasonic
trigger_pin:
number: D1
allow_other_uses: true
echo_pin:
number: D2
allow_other_uses: true

Doesn’t look like it.
This is the list of supported distance sensors.

I had one laying around and thought I’d give it a try

It only has one pin for sending and receiving. I tried to change the yaml to that one pin, but I’m only getting -nan as a response.

Hello,

it’s still the same code

I purchased a tagreader from your website and noticed you have switched to esp8266 instead of wemos d1 mini.
Did the tagreader.yaml file change, due to switching the microcontroller? Or is your github tagreader.yaml still correct?

thanks you
