My Project

I should add that I use a vera scene to turn the receiver on and select a particular preset for the Hd FM tuner. I just select device off for the receiver in vera to turn everything off.

I have now got all my parts and should test this sensor. Now when I connect the serial gateway to my vera edge it says "Lua Startup Failure Can't Detect Device". What can the problem be? I tried to disconnect it and connect it again but nothing happends. Erlier when I haven`t all parts for the sensor all worked okay with the gateway, the only difference now is that I have connected the radio laso. Please help.

@Oitzu Thanks!!

Connect the power supply to the relay which should be governed by the device stops working

@Oitzu Ahh, sorry I missunderstood you - the other way around. I read it like you had to have the nrf attached to make it work :)

@SuperKris Have you read through the project thread on the irrigation controller? It is a long thread but there was some discussion on sending 'sprinkler on' times from Domoticz.

@ajachierno I'm sorry to hear that. It's one of the reasons why I focus on security a lot. Smart of you not to hookup the unlock button.

I hate to disappoint you @micah but @Mike-Musskopf has got a point: MQ* sensors are power hungry. You may want to connect everything up to 240V via a small PSU. There is a big thread on mysensors about air quality detection. DHT is not the best sensor for a battery application. Please check BME280 (pressure, temp and hum) or Si7021 (temp and hum) - these would be my favourite sensors for low power consumption. Small tip - your Arduino Pros must be 3.3V and not 5V for the battery usage.

@TheoL said: of course I will wait. Thank you for your ideas. they are very useful.

@Sander-Stolk I'm guessing your Home Alarm must be protected against over power and thinks like that. It's worth the risk. Maybe you can connect a good old transistor? Just to separate the circuits. I'm by far no expert. But I just don't trust the 0.01V that's a low and strange value. At least to me it is ;-)

@vorowski Thx for the info. It's been down before so I don't mind trying something else anyway. Maybe I can start presenting and logging forecasts from different prividers and then evaluate them 😀

@hek Thank you, it worked !!

However, reading carefully the descriptions state that some of the "5m strips may be soldered together" LOL, Normally not a problem, but the adhesive on the backside of the soldered parts can be weaken. also, they show pictures of 3M backing, but do not explicitly state that the backing is 3M. Well they are shipped with the 3M backing... but usually they can just support their own weight and not a gram more. I suggest to obtain double sided adhesive for parts that are more stressed.

Seems I finally got it working, I'm wondering if there is a way to show the open or closed "live" status on the device page? I can get emails sent as a notification but I would like to see the door status on the Vera Web page when I log in from my phone.. Thanks!!! [image: 1459047828446-garage-door-status.png]
