System temperature : fetching...

[sebastiensaucier]

Hi,

I installed the MMM-SystemTemperature by MichMich , but it still displays “System temperature: fetching…” and I can’t get the temperature.

If I use /opt/vc/bin/vcgencmd measure_temp in the terminal it works fine, but not in the magic mirror app.

I have a Raspberry Pi 3.

Thanks for your help.

How long have you had it fetch the system temperature? Also, you should tell this to the module author.

[sebastiensaucier]

It does this for hours, I never get the temperature. How can I contact the author?

[00conman]

Contact michmich he created the magic mirror.

@00conman since @MichMich is on this forum, he will see :)

@sebastiensaucier That’s weird … do you see any weird messages in the terminal?

[sebastiensaucier]

No just the normal text:

Just a thought, but could CPU load have anything to do with it?

[sebastiensaucier]

It’s around 10% of usage. So I don’t think it can cause the problem.

@sebastiensaucier could you modify the node_helper

change:

self.sendSocketNotification('TEMPERATURE', stdout.replace('temp=','').replace('\'','\°'));

to:

var temperature = stdout.replace('temp=','').replace('\'','\°');
console.log('Temperature: ' + temperature);
self.sendSocketNotification('TEMPERATURE', temperature);

And see if the temperature is logged?
