v1.1.8 — restore responsive (instant-attack) live trace

Fix

The live short-window trace felt laggy since v1.1.3, which introduced live smoothing (attack_coeff: 0.4). This sets attack_coeff back to 1.0 = instant attack — the crisp, responsive live trace of ≤v1.1.2 (env = v on a rise) — while keeping every later improvement (events variant C peak-hold, LED fixes, diagnostics, raw-sensor/log flood fix).

attack_coeff < 1.0 remains available to opt back into rise smoothing. Alarms always read the raw peak.

Upgrade

Set sentinel_version: v1.1.8, then Install.

v1.1.7 — stop log/HA flood from raw sensors

Fix

The raw sound_level sensors (dB / Peak dB) published every 125 ms, unfiltered and exposed to HA — flooding the device log, the API, and the recorder.

• raw spl_db / spl_peak_db are now internal: true (off HA/API/recorder). The component still reads them; HA-facing series remain dB (live), Peak dB (live), est. dB.
• logger: logs: sensor: WARN silences the per-publish state log regardless of global log level.

Upgrade

Set sentinel_version: v1.1.7, then Install. (The raw "dB"/"Peak dB" entities disappear from HA by design — use the (live) ones.)

v1.1.6 — LED stays off (drop Wi-Fi status blink)

Fix

• RGB LED now stays off. Previously restore_mode: ALWAYS_OFF set it off at boot, but network.yaml's wifi: on_connect: turned it blue once Wi-Fi connected — so it appeared on. That status automation is removed. The LED entity stays in HA for manual control and powers up off.

Upgrade

Set sentinel_version: v1.1.6 in your device config, then Install.

v1.1.5 — fix RGB LED entity visibility

Fix

• RGB LED control reappears in Home Assistant. v1.1.4 set disabled_by_default: true, which removed the LED entity from HA. It now stays in the device's controls and simply defaults off at every boot (restore_mode: ALWAYS_OFF).

No other behavior change from v1.1.4.

Upgrade

Set sentinel_version: v1.1.5 in your device config, then Install.

v1.1.4 — events peak-hold retune + diagnostics

Changes

• Events (long-window) peak-hold retuned. It now tracks the real peak and decays cleanly instead of holding a long flat plateau:
  • new events_input_coeff knob (default 0.40 = legacy); set to 0.75 so the peak-hold reaches the true peak level.
  • hold 20 s → 4 s, glide 0.10 → 0.30 — short hold, brisk decay. Each event reads as a quick peak, not a smeared hump.
• Diagnostics: new Sentinel Version sensor (shows the build tag); status LED disabled by default in HA (boot/Wi-Fi status still works).
• Regenerated the DSP figure; docs updated.

The live-trace smoothing (attack_coeff 0.4) and squawk/cry alarms are unchanged. Alarms trigger on the raw peak.

Upgrade

Set sentinel_version: v1.1.4 in your device config, then Install. No wiring changes.

v1.1.3 — smoother live trace + cleaner wiring diagram

Changes

• Smoother live chart trace. New attack_coeff DSP knob (fast-attack EMA on the live envelope), set to 0.4. A sustained cry still ramps to full level in ~1 s, but single-sample blips no longer spike the trace. attack_coeff: 1.0 restores the legacy instant attack. Squawk/Cry alarms trigger on the raw peak, so this adds no alarm latency.
• Cleaner wiring diagram. Mic pins reordered so every wire is one nested down-then-right run with no crossings; VDD + L/R drawn as a single red 3.3V net.
• Regenerated DSP figure to match; docs + pinned ref bumped to v1.1.3.

Upgrade

Change one line in your device config: sentinel_version: v1.1.3, then Install from the ESPHome dashboard. No wiring changes.
