This page is for board specific information. More information can be found on the [[Raspberrypi_Current_and_Temperature_Sensor_Adaptor | generic page for RPICT series]].
Information shown here also applies for [[RPIZ_CT3T1]] and [[RPICT3T1_RLY2]].

==Overview==
The RPICT3T1 measures AC Power and Temperature.
* 3x AC current sensor
* 1x DS18B20 Temperature Sensor
* Attiny84 Microcontroller
==Notice==
Power is computed using a fixed estimated Voltage. This estimated voltage can be configured. Default value is 240V. You will be able to change this to 110 or 230 depending on the country where it is used.
If you require more accurate power measurement then use the [[RPICT3V1]] board instead. This will also read Voltage and calculate Real Power. A voltage sensor will be required in this case.
==Compatibility==

* Asus Tinkerboard has been reported to work with RPICT units. Note we wont be able to provide support for the Tinkerboard.
==Recommended sensors==
* AC Current sensor:
** SCT-013-000
** SCT-019
** SCT-006
** SCT-024 400A/100mA
** SCT-031 600A/100mA
==Temperature Sensor==
The DS18B20 temperature sensor can be connected directly to the screw terminal connector.
Connection is as follow:<br>
Vcc - Red<br>
Din - Yellow<br>
Gnd - Black<br>
[[File:IMG_1176_small.png | 200px]]
Using the latest sketch 3.3 up to 8 temperature sensors can be connected.

==Configuration==
See general instructions for
[[Attiny Over Serial Configuration | Configuration over serial for sketch version 1.2 1.3 & 2.0]].
[[Attiny Over Serial Configuration A2 | Configuration over serial for sketch version 3.0]].
==Calibration==
If calibration is required only ICAL has any effect on the calibration.
VCAL and PHASECAL might be present in the config but have no effect. These should be ignored for the RPICT3T1.
==Default Data Output==
Using the manufacture firmware the data output is:
NodeID P1 P2 P3 Temperature
P1 P2 P3 in Watt.
Temperature in Celsius.
P1 being the estimated Power using CT1. `Estimated Power` computes power multiplying Irms by Vest. Where Vest is the estimated Voltage setup in the config. By default Vest=240V we recommend to change this to 220V or 110V if your local voltage supply differ.
If you prefer having current in Amperes rather than Power in Watt set VEST=1 in the configuration. In the same manner you can set VEST=1000 to get milliAmperes.
==Restore Default Config==
You should have received a key when acquiring the unit. Use this key to download and restore the default configuration.<br>
If the key was XXXX then execute these commands below. Replace XXXX with your own key.
$ wget lechacal.com/hardware/c/XXXX.conf
$ lcl-rpict-config.py -w XXXX.conf
==Emoncms Config (Emonhub)==
For default configuration. Used as single board only (not stacked).
  <nowiki>[[11]]</nowiki>
    nodename = RPICT1T1
    firmware = RPICT3T1_V1_1.ino
    hardware = RPICT3T1
    [[[rx]]]
        names = Power1,Power2,Power3,Temperature
        datacode = 0
        scales = 1,1,1,1
        units = W,W,W,C
==Python demo script==
First of all make sure you have python-serial package installed
$ sudo apt-get install python3-serial
Then copy the following into an executable file and run it.
<syntaxhighlight lang="python">
#!/usr/bin/python3
import serial
ser = serial.Serial('/dev/ttyAMA0', 38400)
try:
        while 1:
            # Read one line from the serial buffer
            line = ser.readline().decode().strip()
            # Create an array of the data
            Z = line.split(' ')
            # Print it nicely
            print ("----------")
            for i in range(len(Z)):
                if i==0:
                    print ("NodeID: %s" % Z[0])
                elif i in [1,2,3]:
                    print ("Power %d: %s W" % (i, Z[i]))
                elif i==4:
                    print ("Temperature: %s C" % (Z[i]))
                       
except KeyboardInterrupt:
        ser.close()
</syntaxhighlight>
To get the above example just enter the command below.
wget lechacal.com/RPICT/example/RPICT3T1_DEMO.py.zip
unzip RPICT3T1_DEMO.py.zip
and run it using
python3 RPICT3T1_DEMO.py
