Troubleshooting

Regarding the mqtt disconnecting, there was already another user with same problem and, if I remember well, the problem was the client id that was conflicting with another device

@hoggin At least according to my experience, just downgrading the AVR Board Definitions to <=1.6.11 using the Board-Manager within an recent version of the IDE should have done the trick; downgrade of the other libs including mysensors (2.1.1) was not necessary. In Addition: For the serial Gateways this kind of trouble seems to be solved since version 1.6.18 of the AVR-Board definitions (shipped since several weeks).

Hy, I have insert into ide board the sensebender micro, it' S possible to use sensebender micro bootloader 8mhz for my project like: atmega328 8mhz internal pir sensor, rfm69 in sleep mode with 2 aa battery for low consumption? Tanks

@Marcoblacks You write: "RFlink can manage my sensor protocol only in RX, it cannot talk with the my sensor node!!!" I think you do not need receive information from gateway every time. In registration process when you use fixed NodeID and do not use ACK, you only send info to GW. Photo sensor only sends data to GW too. Problem with power meter, when you retrieve old number of pulses from controller, but Domoticz has option "Energy read" ( computed x from device ) - maybe it helps. I not try that.

This particular one is running on an Arduino Duemilanove, but the sensor and gateway are both using the same library version (1.5.1) so that should be all good, no?

@erangaj - good! I hope you find the cause of this - let me know if I can do anything else.

@DavidZH said in Pin change interrupt not firing with MySensors: It did! Thanks a bunch! I had a feeling it was to be found in that part of the code. Great! Strange thing is: it still returns -1 as wake up reason. And that brings me back to my original problem. Well, that function is setup to either return the interrupt number, or -1 if it didn't wake from interrupt. You woke it differently, hence the return code of -1, see here. When I want to add a timed sensor by setting a time as last argument, the node will not wake up when an interrupt takes place. It does register the interrupt, as the counter increases with every press. But it will only wake when the timer expires and only then display the updated counter. The actual sleep method differs whether a timeout is passed or not, see here. I would have to consult the datasheet and dive into the different sleeping methods, but that probably is the reason of not waking up. Again, you are using the library in an undocumented/untested way, so, unless you're able to read/modify the code yourself, I advise you to stick to the suggested use cases.

@simonszu said in Need help with initial setup: It looks like it is restarting some times There were some issues with the w5100 and some ide versions causing the gateway to constantly re start Have a look at GatewayW5100 - unable to get working w/ v2.0.0 MySensors 2.0 Ethernet gateway Atmega+W5100) restart all time

Anyone here an idea how i can get the voltage send tomthe gateway? Works great so far except the send of the voltage ....:-(

Excellent, thank you. It's too long since I've done serious coding, I didn't remember that. atoi -> atol fixed it.

@robosensor well, that sounds like a HW issue - maybe fake chips or chips that didn't pass QC.

Welcome to the MySensors community @xsav The easiest way would probably be to remove everything related to TimerOne and replace with this: void loop(){ wait(3*60*1000); Demomodus(); } If you want to use TimerOne you need to enter the number of microseconds to sleep, not milliseconds.

Does this look like a radio error, or something else? Could it just be message collisions? Is there a way to tell the system to attempt to resend a message on a NACK?

@Bryden The wait() function is a MySensors replacement of the standard delay() in c++. The "added value" here is that wait() lets you listen to incoming messages while doing nothing. Unless you want some activity during waiting for a next reading (like blinking a led or so) I think wait() is rather usefull ;-)

@mfalkvidd He's asking how to connect a nrf24 to an ATtiny167 and, if needed, what to tell MySensors to make it work. @Oskar-Dünnebeil Compare the pinouts, here's the ATtiny. Then connect it 1:1 if possible. I know of the options MY_CE_PIN and MY_CS_PIN, maybe there are more. Check the guides for that.

@Cliff-Karlsson domoticz allows you to create a virtual / dummy counter sensor. You can increment / decrement it from several other sensor events in a LUA script as mentioned by @sundberg84

I beg your pardon, but my English is very bad. In the evening load my sketch, so it is more clear ...... Thanks for your patience for now ......

@Michiel-van-der-Wulp ***That worked ! Big thanks to both of you. I am powering arduino directly from a usb cable connected to my pc. The wireless radio is on the 3.3v pin with other leg on gnd. downgraded to .11 Plugged in to serial monitor*** 0;255;3;0;9;TSM:INIT 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:WUR:MS=0 0;255;3;0;9;TSM:INIT:TSP OK 0;255;3;0;9;TSM:INIT:GW MODE 0;255;3;0;9;TSM:READY:ID=0,PAR=0,DIS=0 0;255;3;0;9;MCO:REG:NOT NEEDED IP: 192.168.1.2 0;255;3;0;9;MCO:BGN:STP 0;255;3;0;9;MCO:BGN:INIT OK,TSP=1 ***Hit start and 0 devices appears button is acting better now and actually staying green Plugged in my sensor Eventually found 1 device and it took a while so I reloaded vera so that my sensors would appear. I should have left it alone. When it came back I had nothing. I went back to hit start and it was still pressed but this time it said it found 3 devices :) left it there for about 10 more seconds and it went from start being highlighted to the stop button. It automatically restarted luua and now I get three devices.*** Arduino Temp 0(1) Arduino Node 1 Arduino Repeater 0 Looks like everything is working so I will leave it running and report later today. Here is what my serial out looks like now. I'm wondering if some of that is still reboots? I don't see the line with the IP any more so it doesn't seem to be initializing but not sure what exactly to look for. It actually looks good to me. ;255;3;0;9;Eth: 1;255;3;0;6;I 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=6,pt=0,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:I 0;255;3;0;9;Eth: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=255,c=3,t=12,pt=0,l=3,sg=0:1.1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=0,c=0,t=6,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=255,c=3,t=26,pt=1,l=1,sg=0:2 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=27,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=0,c=1,t=0,pt=7,l=5,sg=0:73.6 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-255,s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:BC 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:FPAR REQ,ID=1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:PNG:SEND,TO=0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:CKU:OK 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:GWL OK 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=8,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-255,s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:BC 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:FPAR REQ,ID=1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:CKU:OK,FCTRL 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:GWL OK 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=8,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-255,s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:BC 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:FPAR REQ,ID=1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:CKU:OK,FCTRL 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:GWL OK 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=8,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-255,s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:BC 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:FPAR REQ,ID=1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:PNG:SEND,TO=0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:CKU:OK 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:GWL OK 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=8,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-255,s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:BC 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:FPAR REQ,ID=1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:CKU:OK,FCTRL 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:GWL OK 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=8,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-255,s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:BC 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:FPAR REQ,ID=1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:CKU:OK,FCTRL 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:GWL OK 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=8,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-255,s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:BC 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:FPAR REQ,ID=1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:CKU:OK,FCTRL 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:GWL OK 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=8,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=OK:0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=255,c=3,t=24,pt=1,l=1,sg=0:1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:PINGED,ID=1,HP=1 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=25,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=255,c=3,t=15,pt=6,l=2,sg=0:0100 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=15,pt=6,l=2,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:0100 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=255,c=0,t=17,pt=0,l=5,sg=0:2.1.0 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=255,c=3,t=6,pt=1,l=1,sg=0:0 0;255;3;0;9;Eth: 1;255;3;0;6;I 0;255;3;0;9;!TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=6,pt=0,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:I 0;255;3;0;9;Eth: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=255,c=3,t=11,pt=0,l=18,sg=0:Temperature Sensor 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=255,c=3,t=12,pt=0,l=3,sg=0:1.1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=0,c=0,t=6,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=255,c=3,t=26,pt=1,l=1,sg=0:2 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=255,c=3,t=27,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=OK:1 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,1-1-0,s=0,c=1,t=0,pt=7,l=5,sg=0:73.6
