I will answer myself after some testing done today:
How can I change network id for gateway (mysgw)?
It is possible to change MY_RFM69_NETWORKID for mysgw by exporting CPPFLAGS variable with the option set before running ./configure:
example:
export CPPFLAGS='-DMY_RFM69_NETWORKID="101"'
./configure --my-gateway=serial --my-transport=rfm69 --my-rfm69-frequency=868 --my-is-rfm69hw --my-serial-is-pty --my-serial-port=/dev/ttyUSB-MysGW --my-serial-groupname=dialout
make
Is it possible to create another RFM69 network on new hardware, just for the test, while my current RFM69 network keeps running on current gateway/controller?
As soon as I started another RFM69 gateway (mysgw) on new hw, even with different network id (101), most of the sensors connected to my other (production) gateway running on old hw with default network id (100) stopped communicating... so it seems it is not possible to run multiple RFM69 gateways in the same range (on the same freq).
Hi @berkseo. Thanks for the suggestion, but could you describe in more detail? As for my TODO list, there is already a task to add 485 interface to the gateway. My latest device "xRoom" have this interface.
ps/ Where have you gone?
I have been working on "xRoom" shield. A small announce:
Do you remember the discussion about multinode? So, it will be available soon))
Hi,
I finally received the boards from the manufacturer(big thanks to @Seeed-Fusion). I manage to assemble one board by soldering the components and such and...it WORKS(including OTA)! I will post the instructions on openhardware.io project page.
Thanks again, learned a lot... I decide to give a try there, I also had a look on some components' datasheet and seems to be what I need... Let's see, if end up getting the boards I'll publish a review here later.
