    I followed the exact steps, but when I try to connect to Portainer, it asks for a username and password. I'm using the same credentials to log in to Portainer, but it doesn't work. Error: Unable to retrieve user details: Unauthorized.

    • @BinaryTechLabs
      @BinaryTechLabs Месяц назад

      Hey, sorry to hear you're having trouble with logging into Portainer! That "Unable to retrieve user details: Unauthorized" error can happen sometimes. Here are a few things you can try: 1. Clear browser cache: Sometimes your browser's cache can cause login issues. Try clearing your cache and cookies, or log in using an incognito window or a different browser. 2. Reset Admin Password: If you still have access to the server where Portainer is running, from the terminal you can reset the admin password with this command: docker exec -it portainer /portainer --admin-password-reset 3. Recreate the Portainer Container: If nothing else works, you can stop and remove the Portainer container, then recreate it. Give these steps a shot and see if it fixes the issue! Let me know how it goes.

    Great video, well explained. One question: can I do this after I've setup HA? I've got HA running but realised, after I'd done all the installation of zigbee2mqtt (and paired all my devices) that HA has opted to not have wifi or ssh access. I'm happy to shut the system down, remove the SD card and put it into card onto a linux machine.

    With only 2.5 microamps of hibernation current, and changes to the software to go into hibernation and only wake up when it's time to take an image and process it, a battery powered version of this seems reasonable.

    • @BinaryTechLabs
      @BinaryTechLabs Месяц назад

      Thanks for your comment! I appreciate the insight. You're absolutely right that with just 2.5 microamps of current, it does sound quite feasible to have a battery-powered version. However, as far as I know, the current AI-on-the-Edge software doesn't natively support this feature. It would indeed be a valuable addition for anyone looking to deploy the ESP32CAM in battery-powered scenarios. I'd suggest reaching out to the developer directly to discuss the possibility of adding this functionality. You can check out the Feature Requests page on the project's GitHub to see if it's already been mentioned or to add your request. github.com/jomjol/AI-on-the-edge-device/blob/rolling/FeatureRequest.md Sometimes, it's these kinds of community-driven ideas that push projects to the next level!

  • @AaronKoolenBourke

    I can't get this working and one thing that confuses me with all this is that, is the ESPPresense ESP32 the iBeacon, or is the actual Apple Watch for example? So which actual device information do we put in the sensor config in the .yaml file? I first assumed it was my watch so I had a sensor for that, but other videos imply otherwise. I've seen some people have a state_topic of espresense/devices and some espresense/rooms, all of them talking about tracking room movements in Home Assistant....

    • @BinaryTechLabs
      @BinaryTechLabs 2 месяца назад

      Hey there! I totally get the confusion-ESPresense can be a bit tricky when you're just getting started. To clarify: iBeacon vs. Tracked Device: In ESPresense, the ESP32 running the software acts as the receiver(base station), not the iBeacon or your Apple Watch. Whatever Bluetooth device you’re tracking is the actual device you should be putting in the YAML configuration. YAML Config: In the YAML config, you’ll want to put the ID of the device you found using MQTT explorer. This is what the ESP32 listens for to determine if your device is present. This device can be your watch, or a beacon. State Topics: When it comes to state topics in ESPresense, think of them as different "channels" that send information about where your tracked devices are. Just remember, it’s important to know that the actual name of the topic (like espresense/devices or espresense/rooms) isn’t as critical as you might think. The key point is that you can name the topic whatever you want-as long as Home Assistant is set up to listen to that specific topic, it will work. It could be espresense/devices, or mycustomtopic/devices, or anything else. I hope that helps clear things up! Let me know if you have any more questions.

    I have two questions, I live in a 220v country, so I wanted to know if the wiring for the relay would be different, also I want to know if I can make automations for lets say.. a two second press of the doorbell button only ringing a specific chime in a speaker.

    • @BinaryTechLabs
      @BinaryTechLabs 2 месяца назад

      Hey, I'm in Canada where we use split phase system, being 120/240 VAC as well, but the voltage on the transformer for my doorbell is 16 VAC, in either case you have to make sure that the device is rated for the current and voltage you're trying to switch. If your door bell uses 220vac you'll need an intermediary relay to handle it as an Esp device won't. For the automation side of it, yes you'd be able to do that. Hope this helps.

It handles all the necessary files and configurations, making the process much smoother. You can manually install the bin files like I show and "AI-on-the-edge-device" isn’t fully compatible with ESPhome due to its specialized nature. For AI functionalities, stick with the provided installation methods. For the latest instructions and updates, check out the Github page

    This is a simple video that is well explained. Nicely done. Every solution has pros and cons compared to other solutions. This way of doing it is simple and has some flexibility because you can do whatever you want with automations. The downside with this solution is that there is no manual override so if the Shelly devices lose the network connection for whatever reason, you have no way to control the light anymore. This is something to keep in mind. I have one important rule when it comes to home automation (with Home Assistant) and that is to always have a manual override in case of network failure. So this solution is not for me but I really like this video, you did a great job explaining things.

    Door Status isn't supported on Security 1. Been up and down the site, doesn't matter what it says there, that feature simply doesn't work. And there's also no discrete Open and Close commands. If you press OPEN in HA when the door is already open, it'll just close. In other words, Open and Close do the exact same thing - it's just pressing a single momentary contact. This does one thing I didn't have before - it can tell when you cross the safety beam. At least once - because its status will eventually get confused and then stick on either clear or blocked. The solution I made and posted about on the HA forum using an IKEA rotary controller and Shelly Uni is better IMO. It lacks the laser sensor, but it can tell you accurately when the door is opening or closing or stopped because the rotary is spun by the torsion bar on the door sending continuous status.

    • @BinaryTechLabs

      Hi! Thanks for reaching out. The issue you are having with applying the Papirus Dark icon theme is likely due to you using the latest Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm, that recently switched from X11 to Wayland, which affects how themes and customizations work. Currently, there's no direct GUI tool for theme customization on Wayland in Raspberry Pi OS Bookworm. However, you can still customize your setup by trying out Wayland-compatible desktop environments like Sway. This may require some manual setup and command line work, but it's a good way to achieve the look you want. Don't worry, exploring Linux and Raspberry Pi is all about learning new things. Check out forums and guides for help, and keep experimenting. Good luck!

      @@BinaryTechLabsThank you so much for taking the time to give a detailed reply. I am definitely running Bookworm. ChatGPT told me to clear the icon cache to try to fix things but now I can’t see any icons. Is there a way to reverse this?

      I know chatgpt is a great resource, but keep in mind that it can only answer your questions with limited information, the more information you feed it the better the answer. As I mentioned before, welcome to the wonderful world of Linux, it's a powerful tool and I really encourage you to play around with it, the raspberry pi forums are a great starting point. Break your system as you have and try to fix it, you can always reload it. If you are worried about the set up, get it all just the way you want and take an image of your SD card, then you'd be able to restore it to that point any time. But in the meantime you can use this command and then reboot: sudo update-icon-caches Cheers

      @@BinaryTechLabs Well, I was trying to install Home assistant, mqtt and zigbee2mqtt on a dietpi installation. Where docker and mqtt was installed along the DietpiOS. I managed to get Homeassistant running, but adding the others and making it function with the Mqtt installed by the installer, turned out to be to much with ZERO Linux experience and trying to make the containers talk to each other was just to hard without a reasent guide on setting this stuff up. After working pretty much 2 days straight I had to giveup and install Home Assistant OS instead. This is also pretty hard and not as easy as I was expecting, but I'm all ready further along then I was with the dietpi installation. I was watching your video to try to understand how linux is working about file structure and so on, but was missing stuff like how to navigate around in the folders how to view folders and so on. All the basics, understanding the structure without being able to use the knowledge is only painfull. 🙂

      maybe THE haos IMG file work ONLY Raspberrypi - Not pc motherboards. and work this img VirtualBox, in Virtual machine. BalenaEtcher maybe for raspberry flashes the img file correctly to disk - but not for pc. no raspberry, can't try. there are other files in the img file, which are very wrong files for booting the PC. therefore, it is a very pointless event to boot this flashed img file on the pc. for this you must have raspberry. @@BinaryTechLabs

    • @BinaryTechLabs

      Thank you for your comment, unfortunately only one coordinator, but you can use "routers" to extend and build up your network. Typically constant powered devices act as routers

  • @aopa23
    @aopa23 10 месяцев назад

    I have a question, you say that if for some reason the coordinator (or homeassistant) fails, the zigbee network is still alive. My question is how could I turn on some zigbee lights with a zigbee switch if I don't have a coordinator or homeassistant?

    • @BinaryTechLabs
      @BinaryTechLabs 10 месяцев назад

      Thank you for your question! I'd like to clarify my statement about the Zigbee network's resilience. In my video, I mentioned that Zigbee networks typically use a mesh topology, which allows Zigbee devices to communicate with each other within the network, as long as you have "router" type devices in your network, which typically come in the form of plugs or switches. Usually they are powered at all times. This is in contrast to the star topology often used in Wi-Fi networks, where devices connect directly to a central router. In a Zigbee mesh network, Zigbee devices can communicate with any other devices within range through routers and, not just with the coordinator. This means that even if the coordinator or Home Assistant, were to fail, your Zigbee devices can still communicate with each other through the mesh network. This inherent feature of Zigbee networks provides a level of robustness and redundancy.
