I'll try on one of mine when I get the chance... your code works, and that's a treat, but now I need to understand why the simpler execution of the same code doesn't seem to cooperate with your rig. weird... you code with pinMode(buttonPin[i], INPUT); exactly same board and USB power supply and same transceiver, here are the results Sending device info...sensor started, id 32 send: 32-32-0-0

Good idea. Append IR control

Well well well... I've got it working with 2 relays and 2 door sensors. See my sketch below! The problem is the relays which are configured by counting and adding up numbers and the child_id's for 1 button and the debouncer missing config in the skecth.

But we better check anyway. if (message.type==V_LIGHT) { // Change relay state digitalWrite(message.sensor-1+RELAY_1, message.getBool()?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF); // Store state in eeprom gw.saveState(message.sensor, message.getBool()); // Write some debug info Serial.print("Incoming change for sensor:"); Serial.print(message.sensor); Serial.print(", New status: "); Serial.println(message.getBool()); } }

@Daniel-Lindberg go wire wrap! Its the future! :smile:

@5546dug said: Just a question, when in your code 3.1.1 you have a few scattered lines through out the declaration code with only // on these lines does it mean anything in particular ? Adding the "//" is only a personal preference of mine to use the comment marks rather than leaving a blank line. for me, with a certain text editor that I use, it is easier to edit and not inadvertently delete some curly brace and screw up my code! @5546dug said: your code worked 100% THANKS. happy to hear you are going now, sorry about the mixup.

@ThomasDecock No I wasn't, I was able to get the standard dallas temperature working(because I thought the sensors no longer work), but unfortunately my time on this is pretty limited. I hoped I got it working until I go on vacation, but probably will look into it after. I would appreciate if someone could help with it, I think everyone would.

here which power adapter you used?

Nice hack. Incredible to get a LCD remote for $3 .

I made that some weeks aga. :) this is my sensor and maybe it can give you some inspiration. Good Lucy @csnij

Hey Man! any progress on the buttons? Really looking forward to that so that i can start making one for myself as well. Cheers.

We updated the code and now it possible not only to save learned raw codes on the sd card, but also to read and send Pronto codes that are stored on the sd card. :)

@ServiceXp I'm not sure. I looked around for similar devices almost a year ago, and didn't find any consumer grade chargers or monitors which had such, though there were a few commercial devices for the larger flooded cells which appeared to monitor the fluid level somehow. Some even monitored the specific gravity of the electrolyte, but I'm sure those cost more than several 'basement watchdogs. I suppose I could try to decode the simpler-looking circuit on the 'emergency' model and try to figure out what it was doing, but I think I've forgotten what little I actually learned in Circuits class back in college.

@mvader These are perfect for 2aa powered sensors although slightly ominous http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Dummy-Security-Camera-CCTV-Home-Dome-Camera-With-Red-Flashing-Light-Woshida/32317143038.html?spm=2114.32010308.4.11.8z1AAX they are basically empty. for 2.5$ you get a case, a battery holder and a clear dome.... Even a switch!!!! Best deal in the world.

Hmm.. firmware updates in the field are not that easy, when you have to stand on a ladder to do the update. Luckily I can place my laptop on the top of the wall, just under the roof in the barn. Maybe I should do something about OTA firmware updates.. On the other hand, then I wouldn't see that the controller went haywire, and tried to close an already closed port, which almost broke the chain drive for the port.. http://youtu.be/BSewn_sLYP8

@ServiceXp said: @Sparkman Well Done!! Thanks!

@epierre I'm afraid I haven't gotten around to it yet. Partly because I have my CCTV that automatically feeds me images of whoever has the misfortune of stepping on the porch and triggering the motion detection so I haven't been in any great hurry exactly. I have all the components around here somewhere though. Don't know if the ACS712 + logic level conversion is still the easiest approach or if we're over-complicating things here.
