Troubleshooting

@sincze - <10 is good... saves power but not approved by wife :) <30 for me... lights on! :)

@mfalkvidd Thanks for the link to this thread. I didn't found this before. It is exactly my problem, so we can close this thread and continue discussing in thisone. @tekka Thank you for this outlook. For me this feature is essential and I am wondering if it is not implemented from the beginning. So I hope that it will be published soon. Anyway I like MySensors and the great developer community. Many thanks to all.

aah. Then I will have to run it from a 3.3V pro micro :) need 3 interupt pins for this sketch :) Thank you for the answer!

Replace the delay() with wait(). That function has the same outcome in your sketch but does not block the Duino from executing code in the background (witch is what MySensors is taking care of for you). In your case the acknowledgement from the controller is not processed by your node because you stopped the Duino for 100ms. A wait for about 20 to 50 ms should do the trick easily! And to answer your second question: yes, it is possible that it is a power related problem. Do you have a large-ish capacitor (4,7 - 10µF) neat the power pins for your radio?

@korttoma said: "Can´t Detect Device" This was fixed for me when I changed all three CommFailure. CommFailure = 0 CommFailureTime = 0 CommFailureAlarm= 0 Thanks a lot!

Reporting: I have thrown away the capacitors that I've bought from Ali and replaced them by those bougth here localy (47uF) and everything worked like a charm! So to admit, the promblem IS indeed in the decoupling capacitors! Very happy guy here! :)

@mfalkvidd Ah ok, then I just have to wait for the stuff :) Thanks!

Thanks @blacey I'll give that a go tomorow and report back, really appreciate you pointing me in the right direction

@Matt-Pitts Excellent! :+1:

Thank you so much, scalz. That solved my problem. Just soldered them and now it works. It really seems the arduino needs a good wired connection in order to work.

Guys, i'm having the same problem but with a serial GW.. Any ideas?

Thank's! I downloaded the development version of the library and installed, seems to work fine and compiles without errors (except from the MY_LEDS_BLINKING_FEATURE which I removed)

Fixed by switching 4.7uF capacitors with 10uF capacitors.

@LastSamurai Here is the code for my PIR and Light sensore node: https://github.com/abmantis/MySensors-Sketches/blob/master/MotionLightSensor/MotionLightSensor.ino It is a bit complex, sorry. Also, ignore the temperature parts since that is a WIP and is untested.

I have found some alternatives that can be used: https://electrohobby.ca/forum/showthread.php?tid=214&pid=1281

@dbemowsk I run that way now. Same time for both with debug and without. It works well with debug activated but not with debug inactive. Same time on both.
