My Project

yes. that's it what i want to know. Thanks.

well, here's the thing. I have 2 of those at home and looks like is the best way to sell this things to my wife! so ... I'll start with this. @AWI, I'm running with openHAB. I have also a VeraEdge here but ... I don't really like it very much. I think I haven't found the trick yet ...

@scalz I did the same, trying to decide between the two! It is true, I had mysensors working and a smile on my face within 20 mins of finding the website, including building the hardware on breadboard, so great!! With Souliss I am still reading and learning! Only have simple implementations so far. One thing I do like is the wireless local logic abilities, like you say, distributed gateways. I suppose with everything considered you are correct, souliss is far more involved a platform, in general but also from the end user side. I also find on the nodes I have experimented with, it is more memory intensive, but that might be my terrible implementation :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: !! Either way, these platforms are just amazing in their own rights, I dreamed of exactly what they offer a few years back and my studies and research always got in the way, but now its time to play! As @scalz says, I really admire what both developments have produced, just great engineering !!

@GuyP many posts ago you guided @Moshe-Livne to arduino cc/ file for downloading the bootloader files but I see only the files for 168 DIP and not 328P Do I use the 168p file?

My setup doesn't work. When i activate the relay directly it works. Pin 3 to ground does nothing. I used the sketch from Moshe. What can i do next?

Thanks, I will watch out for conflicting node id's

So many questions... And many of them is hard to answer without testing+playing around. Coming soon. "gateway-refactoring-branch" will soon be merged into development-branch. Try now if you want. ? ?? Relays usually have bot NO/NC outputs. Not sure I understand what you mean fully. Yes, see the signing support in library. Probably works on a nano but you have to test yourself. Hard to answer. Guess testing in your environment is the only way to know. Same answer as 7

@Dwalt said: Depending on your controller and what you plan on doing with this data, I would send the data to your controller as a simple number using V_LIGHT_LEVEL or V_VAR1 and not mess with atmospheric pressure with V_PRESSURE. or just use the temperature device... you can attach logic a lot easier with controller-friendly device types. Vera knows temperature, for example.

With PiDome you are able to add options to device skeletons you create (so you can re-use devices). When you add a device to the server you can set these options. Example: You have 5 temperature nodes, you create a skeleton once with your temperature node setup, you add the option poll time with a drop down choosing between 1, 5, 10 minutes (you can also use input fields off course). When you add these devices to the server you then can set the polling time per device. By using the mysensors functionality to do a data request you will be able to get the option's value (See "Requesting data" on the API page: http://www.mysensors.org/download/sensor_api_15). But. The above does not work yet for PiDome as this is not implemented in the mysensors plugin. Too be honest i did not even have thought about it. I have created a feature request for the mysensors plugin to have this implemented at: https://bitbucket.org/pidome/pidome-mysensors/issues/4/be-able-to-create-options-for-devices-in So if you are going to use PiDome or not, this will be implemented (so other users will also be able to use it when it becomes available). I can not yet give an estimate on when this is implemented as the Custom devices editor is on the optimization list, and currently i'm extremely busy with the raspberry pi client to have it compatible on multiple display resolutions (starting from 240*320). You have the possibility to vote for the option so it can go up on the prio list (It is the three of PiDome deciding which option is next to pick up). Regarding of booting all the sensors at the same time. The server does not care. It is capable of handling bulk messages from the gateway. So you need @hek to answer this one.

Does anyone have any working examples of Sensebender Micro working with a Photon? I have all the parts but finding it difficult to unravel all GW libs and so on. I just want to use my sensebender with a Onewire waterproof temp sensor and for it to report back to the Photon every 5 minutes or so.

The error I get is as follows; and I am using U17 and NRF24L01. I have power to the UNO as well. MySensors plugin : Cannot send command - communications error ERROR : Error in lua for scenes and events Not sure if this is related to this or my calendar issue.

@Burtonian I have a couple of those boards as well and have uploaded sketches to them using W7 64 bit. You do need to install special drivers. I downloaded the driver from here: http://www.wch.cn/download/CH341SER_EXE.html Cheers Al

@ewgor, like I said, I couldnt get mine built. Not sure what i did wrong. I got values, but they were the same whether current was going through or not. So i kind of gave up on it for a while. I too need some help getting it built.

well done :) l33t hack :)

Thanks - your schematic/drawing is really helpful. I just ordered some of those step-up components and a few sensebenders.

Hahaha, that dutch guy is crasy :) Love his homepage... never seen before but thats something to aim for, lol.

I agree with "notforyou23", the eTape is a great product (although a bit pricy). I use it in this project where i easily keep my pond water level +-5mm. And i rever overfill the pond anymore... https://github.com/epkboan/pc
