    I have 4 mysensor device in MajorDomo. Work well. Door sensor, Reed switch & Vibration sensor Pulse meter for Gas meter DHT22 Hygrometer for my plants In plan Pulse meter for water counter Every sensor insert in small box - power bank http://www.ebay.com/itm/2600mAh-USB-Power-Bank-Portable-External-Battery-Charger-For-iphone-Samsung-/261693722800?pt=US_Cell_Phone_PDA_Chargers&var=&hash=item3cee2950b0 And small accumulator http://www.ebay.com/itm/271676342921?_trksid=p2060778.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Looks like this http://smartliving.ru/forum/download/file.php?id=1417

    I checked the sensor and it will output both so i'll need to do some testing there. I will tear into the motion sketch and see what damage I can do. Thank you for your input.

    @hek Awesome! No animals were harmed but what about daughters and wives, parents and in-laws? Nice to see that we are both drone enthusiasts ;)

    @bluman If it is the ? operator that is the fuzzy one then you can rewrite the statement like: if (message.getBool()) digitalWrite(message.sensor-1+RELAY_1, true); else digitalWrite(message.sensor-1+RELAY_1, false); The ? operator act like: expression?truepart:falsepart So if expression is true the it executes the truepart else it executes the falsepart

    @doctor64 said: PIR sensors Not anyone, a sensor that generates a signal when I come close to the car, I rather it not be IR since, AFAIK, they need to be in specific positions to work, unlike NFC or Bluetooth that cover areas around the sensor. Basically I'm trying to create a smart switch that goes on or of based on whether I'm close (in the range of 10-20 feet) to it or not.

    Hi @tbowmo, do you mind to explain a bit about the design? I'm interested with your design. I will use these steps for removing voltage regulator, http://goo.gl/CsZaNg So the design will be battery > external step up regulator (http://goo.gl/PFt99R - to stabilize 3.3v) > vcc pin ? with these then I can use my first post design? Thanks

    If i understand correctly these BLE modes, to have the arduino "listen" for an ibeacon ( or similar) then you need a ble module capable of being set to "central" profile. Something like this should do this http://redbearlab.com/blemini/ but any module with the CC2540 chip should work... im going to try some modules using this chip. Did u seem my post here http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/709/indoor-ble-location-or-presence-detection

    @hek I have two sensors in my network ( temp , Hum ) and motion detection. both working in auto mode and request node id from controller ( raspberry pi ) node via gateway . but unfortunately, reponse code of both nodes get same node id 1. may be bug in sendNextAvailableSensorId() function response. any idea? thanks

    What if my neighbour also discovers this site and starts to build a network? Like @tbowmo indicated you can select another channel. If you are worried about your neighbor controlling your lamps or listening to your messages, have a look at http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/9/security

    for a standard 220V appliance cord with 0.75mm2 (square mm) you have a resistance of 1 ohm for each 43m for 20 feet (6.1 meters), the resistance is 0.142 ohm, with 5A load, you have a drop of 0.7V.. for 8 feet (2.5m) the resistance is 0.06ohm, again with 5A load, you have a drop of 0.3V So only 0.4V in difference... / Thomas

    Well I decided not to try the multiple gateway method. Too many opportunities for me to screw something up. I decided to work on the code ahead of time and convert all sensors in a weekend. For the most part it was very smooth. I had two nodes that wouldn't communicate with the gateway then I figured out that they were trying to communicate with a node that I had inadvertently made into a relay node. Once I cleared Eeprom and re-uploaded the code they found the gateway and worked great. One node I still haven't figured out. It will update all sensors (I have a barometer, DHT22 and moisture sensor connected) but it stops after the first time. I haven't had time to try to debug but it was working fine in v1.3. I'll post back when I finally get it figured out in case it helps anyone else who still needs to upgrade.

    I can nothing say about OpenHAB or PiDome but: Started! 0;0;3;0;9;read: 0-0-0 s=0,c=0,t=0,pt=0,l=0: 0;0;3;0;9;version mismatch 0;0;3;0;9;read: 0-0-0 s=0,c=0,t=0,pt=0,l=0: 0;0;3;0;9;version mismatch Does not look good, it seems an error from the gateway.

    I think that: It does overlap with MySensors for the wireless network. MQTT-SN assumes a network that provides a bi-directional data transfer service between any node and a particular one (a gateway). MySensors wireless network could provide data transfer but the message are really tailored to transport sensor and actuator values. MQTT-SN for the gateway - controller interface is not needed MQTT is for that more than fine That said I like the idea of MQTT-SN but for it a "transparent network" makes more sense.
