  I never noticed the 20 device cap. That won't do. What I am thinking of now, is to use EspHome and just dedicate a router to handle just that network - so kinda creating an IoT network without internet access and as standalone as possible. Using static IPs should make the response better too. Thanks for looking into this.

  25/25 Програма ChatGPT сказала: It seems like you're exploring the use of PJON with RS485. While RS485 is natively supported in MySensors, using PJON for collision handling can offer some interesting advantages, especially in environments where communication reliability is critical. PJON's collision management may be useful in bus systems like RS485, but it's worth considering whether the added complexity is necessary.

  It seems that using an Ethernet PHY (like LAN8720) with the ESP32 in a MySensors setup requires a bit of extra configuration, including initializing the PHY using the ETH.h library and disabling the default Wi-Fi initialization. Interestingly, this setup allows for dual IP addresses, with one for the Ethernet connection and another for Wi-Fi, which can be useful in certain applications.

  Just for reference, as this solution was no yet mentioned: You could also use a second UART on your controller or a software serial for debuging with the following defines: #define MY_SERIALDEVICE Serial // Interface for controller connection #define MY_DEBUGDEVICE Serial1 // Interface for debug output Regards, Edi

  Test was a success. My Dryer sensor is now a repeater as well. I was able to move my motion sensor farther from my dryer and have it work the same. 1 Thing to note is I did have to restart the gateway in order to get the motion sensor to flow through the repeater. Something that could be improved on maybe?

  Hi, Increasing the MY_SMART_SLEEP_WAIT_DURATION_MS would probably work, but I assume this waiting happens while the sensor sketch is running (at least the RF needs to be powered on), thus decreasing battery life. But I think I will give it a try soon and see what happens. Thanks for the precious info! BR, Costa

  @NielBierman Why are you using VARs when there are already moisture and temperature categories available to you? Just give each temp and moisture sensor a unique CHILD_ID (simply by adding 1-8 in the name) and you are done!

  @mfalkvidd - Sorry I didn't make it clear but I was thinking of doors, windows, blinds and curtains. Curtains don't usually have UP or DOWN, they are OPEN and CLOSED. Likewise with doors and windows which are normally OPEN or CLOSED. Only if V_ARMED is set true should it send a value of V_TRIPPED. But in normal circumstances they are OPEN or CLOSED (or maybe smoewhere inbetween, but V_PERCENTAGE handles that situation).

  In all honesty, I'm not quite convinced you'd need two separate networks. Just provide the security sensors, the repeaters, the gateway and your controller - that form the security system - with some sort of ups and they will keep running until the UPS has no more power left. The none security devices will stop working when the power goes out and, unless I don't really understand your problem well. That does what I think you want to achieve? Unless you have combined a lot of sensors within a repeater it would really be my way to go. It wouldn't mean any modifications to your security hardware, because they need to be battery powered or have some sort of UPS anyway, to keep working when the power goes down. But again it's hard to judge when you don't really understand the problem some one is trying to solve.

  Yes, I read it. I started using your approach, gateway sensor ids representing nodes ids, but from the controller point of view this is not straight forward, I think. The 2 problems remain somehow the same. How to get the controllers to understand that gateway sensors are not actually sensors but RSSI value, and repeaters breaks my current algorithm. Thinking more about this, if it is something the library would benefit, lead me to read about the RF24 and NRF5 radios. I only have RFM69 devices (20 nodes) and it offers RSSI out of the box, same as RFM LoRa version and NRF5. But RF24 lacks this feature. So it somewhat depends on how many are using radios with rssi. Library developers included RSSI functionality, so it has to be of interest. The repeater problem is partially solved because RF24 networks need repeaters, but don't have RSSI. RFM networks should do without repeaters for most applications. For NRF5, I lack this info. But as I passed the rssi from transport to gateway transport, same can be done with actual sender from the header. Maybe in version 3.0.0 something like this can be implemented? My understanding is that controllers get link quality data the same way they get all other data from devices, on other platforms. Mabey a I_LINK_QUALITY type can be added especially for this information? for example my zigbee network: zigbee2mqtt/device {"linkquality":5,"state":"ON"}

  While it would be possible via request() as @mfalkvidd suggests, I wouldn't recommend to do that in this case. I think it's rather pointless to regularly request variables which only change rarely. It adds a lot of traffic to the network - at least 4 messages (including echos) per request - while the requested values stay unchanged 98% of the time or so. Not to mention that the status LEDs could show a wrong condition for up to 10 minutes if you toggle a light switch right after its state has been requested. I'd suggest to use one of the following alternatives instead: You could have the light nodes send messages to both the gateway and the node with the status LEDs. The status LEDs would update immediately when a light is toggled and there's a lot less unnecessary traffic on the network. Let the controller handle the logic. Whenever a light node sends a state change to the gateway, tell the controller to send a message to the node with the status LEDs. This method has the same benefits as the one before and it's easier maintainable since you don't need to re-upload sketches to multiple nodes if something changes - just reconfigure a script in your controller.

  @mfalkvidd not necessary. We already have #define MY_GATEWAY_LINUX, so just #ifdef MY_GATEWAY_LINUX to define those constants in runtime at the init stage. As I see it, only SPI driver needs to be defined at compilation, other options could easily be set via config.

  Why don't you just use an existing message type to send the time to the controller? Imo the real challenge would start the moment the GW handles the message over to the controller: has the controller sw the necessary rights to change system time (in my case: no...) how to deal with conflicting info from different sources? Imo, it's already possible for the rare use case there might be left over (but as explained needs some manual configuration). Especially when using a Pi: add a RTC and make some manual updates on that every now and then (if necessary). Just my2ct.

  This can be achievable by using a TLP5110, this device is only consuming (sipping) 35nA. and then the comment from rozpruwacz is very valid, that you need to be careful of battery self discharging The you can use a switch to wakup the MCU when window is opened, and provide a resister value to TPL5110 to startup MCU once per day, to give a heartbeat signal that sensor is alive http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tpl5110.pdf

  @rozpruwacz Sorry, it's hard for me to work on this subject during week days. I2C is in the code, I'm just trying to find a generic solution. Currently, my raspberry has only the nrf24, therefore, I'm probably not using I2C. My configure options are: ./configure --soc=BCM2835 --my-gateway=ethernet --my-port=5003 --my-rf24-encryption-enabled --my-rf24-channel={{ rf24_channel }} Note that since my network is only sending information (nothing is controlled), I'm not worried about not using signatures between nodes. I enabled it in the past but then, disabled it.

  First off, sorry to revive this. I just discovered the (new?) 8-pin CC1101 modules and thought "hey, it uses the same socket as the NRF24". So I tried comparing the pin positions. And to my surprise they seem very compatible: GND -> GND CE -> GDO0 SCK -> SCK MISO -> MISO 3.3V -> 3.3V CSN -> CSN MOSI ->MOSI IRQ -> GDO2 To me this radio would have a few advantages over the RFM69: Plug and play. I could plug it into the Nano wireless expansion boards. Built in antenna socket. I think it could be advantageous to use a 433 radio that is plug-in compatible with the NRF24 in this way. 3D printable cases and open hardware designs would only need to support one socket design and still support both frequencies. The STM8S103F3P6 (the "1$ arduino") has a version with built in socket, and expressly advertises that it is compatible with both radios. There is an STM32 version with a socket too. As someone who started by using the NRF24, I've long wished I could easily switch to the 433Mhz band instead. Supporting the CC1101 would make that as easy as plugging in a new radio.

  I'm on the way to implement something similar with e-paper (without touch at the moment) to save battery. However I will use an additional SPI port and require a lot more flash/RAM as ATmegas provide. Also with the STM32 I'm comming to a limit. Thus I'm switching to an ESP32 barebone module for 3,63€ (4,20$) and habe 4 SPI ports, many I2C ports etc. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/ESP32-ESP32S-WIFI-Bluetooth-Module-240MHz-Dual-Core-CPU-MCU-Wireless-Network-Board-ESP-WROOM-32/32817688406.html?spm=a2g0s.8937460.0.0.xvTLd7 The nice thing with the ESP32 is, that it has 10 touch panel ports on-chip and is very engergy efficient (if used with battery). We had this discussion already and if the bare module is used is has on one hand suffient MCU power as wel as very low engery in sleep/deep sleep. IT has WiFi, BlueTooth, no limits with Flash/RAM etc. Think about it. The best thing: There is a brach or event a planned PR which supports ESP32. See here: https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/9167/esp32-support-to-enable-the-powerful-esp32-rfm95-lora-lipo-battery-boards

  @yveaux clarification: imho, if support for many interrupts is added in a future version of MySensors (which is what we're discussing in this thread), sketch developers should not need to manually call pinMode.

  TO ALL IN THIS TOPIC I though it was appropriate I acknowledge that I now realise I misunderstood there was anti-ESP sentiment here, its more a case of just too busy to jump onto every idea mentioned. Like a few others who spoke to me, I failed to make an official request, therefore until I did and was told err.. 'where to go', I should not have assumed anything. There was never any ill intention, just frustration as I probably love MySensors as much as anybody else here. Like everyone, I have real time restraints, but if I can conribute, I will. My thanks to everyone who has taken the time to comment. Paul

  @AffordableTech MySensors = node --> gateway --> HA Controller If you want to use ESP8266 it is as easy as: ESP8266 node --> MQTT broker --> HA Controller The MQTT broker can run on a RPi (mosquitto for example) Regarding the ID assignment that will be DHCP if you want Just my 2c

  @Luca-Calcaterra I am all for making a solution like this because it would give access to MySensors to complete non-programmers. The sketch generator seems like the best approach to me, but it still needs compiling in Arduino and transferring to node, acceptable step for an electrician I suppose, but probably not for my grandpa

  @Outlaw You could potentially connect it to the input of a relay module like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/2PCS-1-Channel-DC-5V-Relay-Switch-Module-for-Arduino-Raspberry-Pi-ARM-AVR/322465448278?hash=item4b14704156:g:dzgAAOSwSlBY2bTH Why would you want only that though with no HA integration? If that's all you want, go to a store and buy a motion switch. Or am I missing something?

  @8667 yes. Just comment MY_RADIO_NRF24 in the MQTT gateway example. Then present your sensors and send their data like any other node. From the build page (my emphasis) The W5100 MQTT gateway sends radio network (or locally attached sensors) data to your MQTT broker.

But almost in every country RF laws allow to use 2.4G transmitters up to 100mw (+20dbm) without permitions. It would extend the range a lot.

  OK i did make a prototype implementation using the V_CUSTOM message type. This works for Vera only. I had to change only one file: L_Arduino.lua The function starting on line 244 has te be extened with this if statement: -- Handle Local Request variables if (varType == "CUSTOM") then local bit = require("bit") local varReqIndex = bit.band(tonumber(value), 0xFF); local varVeraId = bit.rshift(tonumber(value), 8); local varReqType = tVarLookupNumType[varReqIndex] local varReq = tVarTypes[varReqType] if (varReq[2] ~= nil) then log("Local request '" .. varReq[3] .. "' from Device ID: ".. varVeraId .. " sensor type '" .. varReqType .. "'") local localValue = luup.variable_get(varReq[2], varReq[3], varVeraId) if (localValue ~= nil) then -- Send variable value to actuator sendRequestResponse(nodeId .. ";" .. childId, varReqType, localValue) end end else The complete function will then look like this: local function setVariable(incomingData, childId, nodeId) if (childId ~= nil) then -- Set variable on child sensor. local index = tonumber(incomingData[5]); local varType = tVarLookupNumType[index] local var = tVarTypes[varType] local value = incomingData[6] local timestamp = os.time() -- Handle Local Request variables if (varType == "CUSTOM") then local bit = require("bit") local varReqIndex = bit.band(tonumber(value), 0xFF); local varVeraId = bit.rshift(tonumber(value), 8); local varReqType = tVarLookupNumType[varReqIndex] local varReq = tVarTypes[varReqType] if (varReq[2] ~= nil) then log("Local request '" .. varReq[3] .. "' from Device ID: ".. varVeraId .. " sensor type '" .. varReqType .. "'") local localValue = luup.variable_get(varReq[2], varReq[3], varVeraId) if (localValue ~= nil) then -- Send variable value to actuator sendRequestResponse(nodeId .. ";" .. childId, varReqType, localValue) end end elseif (var[2] ~= nil) then log("Setting variable '".. var[3] .. "' to value '".. value..

  @mihai.aldea That is because it was written before I knew you were using LoRa. Look at the sentence just before that question. It says "If I understand correctly, you are using the fsk mode of the rfm96?"

In the night light, I commented out the request() call (and I took out the receive() implementation in the TimeMaster) because I ran into the DCF time receiver starting again every time. Any more info you need right now? Just shout!

  @thomme This gateway has to remember all the sensors on the mysensors network. If you would add a new sensor, you would have to detach and reattach the Z-Uno from zWave network. I don't think you have enough memory on the Z-Uno to do such a gateway and AFAIK the sensor types supported on the Z-Uno are very limited. My solution for integrating different iot systems is mqtt with node-red. All systems have an adapter to a generic message structure and can be connected to all the others. I use a mix of homegear,/homematic mysensors, netatmo, zWave, owntracks, Alexa, imperihome, Sonoff...

  @RoushRS3 said: it needs tot turn on and then immediately turn off, and it does not do that. If you look at the code for my garage door node, mine does that. Everything for that is handled by the node This is the code in the main loop that does that: //If the relay is on, shut it off if ( digitalRead( DOOR_ACTUATOR_RELAY ) == 1) { relayOff(); } In the relayOff method the relay is shut off and then informs the controller that it has been shut off: /** * relayOff - Used to turn off the door opener relay after the TOGGLE_INTERVAL */ void relayOff() { digitalWrite( DOOR_ACTUATOR_RELAY, RELAY_OFF ); //Added this to tell the controller that we shut off the relay send( msgOpener.set(0) ); } //End relayOff So on the controller, you should see the switch turn on, and then immediately shut off.

Anyway, It would be really easy to revert the (clean-up) commit, whenever you'd decide to use this suggested (or another similar) standard.

  @Heizelmann I'm not sure I understood your concern. Initialization is finished here, right before the main loop is entered: 1512 MCO:BGN:INIT OK,TSP=0 Since your timeout is set to 1sec (which obviously is too short to fully establish the transport link) the node will enter the main loop() after the timeout. However, since the link is not established, only init messages are sent at that point (i.e. library init, signing preferences, presentation). Sensor data will not be sent until the node is registered.

  I am actually using the DS2401s to generate IDs within my Mysensor network. I have created two arrays, one with the DS2401 ID, the other with the location (text) of the sensor. (it should be possible to do this in a single array BTW) In this way I can label my Node with the location name at boot, but more important it labels the children with the location. (in addition in my Arduino script I am labeling the Arduino hardware platform as part of the node name) Imagine having a list of 15 DHT22's in Domoticz, it is quite challening to find the right DHT22 for a certain location. (I am using Domoticz) But I acutally should include the Node-ID in my script, in that way I don't need to query it at boot time

Have ordered the parts to start a MySensors network and would also like to integrate these to my smartthings hub. IF anyone has moved this on yet I would love to know and maybe help with getting this working. Thinking of using the proton as a gateway if that's possible.

  Hallo, Here I am again. My question is still the same: Can one use an ESP8266 instead of an arduino plus radio? Not via wifi but exactly as when as I use an arduino with some radio. I know, that all the experts until now wrote, as a gateaway: yes. But you need a present WLan then. For a rf24 you need no WLan. Did anybody succeed in programming the ESP8266 in the way, that it behaves like an arduino with rf24 connected? So you could save a lot of time soldering and searching mistakes.

  @Theol I like the way you're thinking, trying to make things affordable easing coding life for noobs, not so easy task. Imho I prefer non blocking stuff too, state machine like. I think this is really the way to think for a machine, IOT. I think this is kind of education..more mcu programming related. A very basic state machine just needs few "If" and/or "switch case". Often, people don't know theyr're doing a state machine I mean the basics of course, because you can use function pointers etc which are more advanced, use more mem etc..I choose function pointers or "If/switch" depending of the context but looks better with pointers. I hope I don't say dumb things or Yveaux will correct me Ideally, very basic and important stuff a newbie need to learn for playing with a MCU, then with Mysensors, would be: to understand why there is no "multitask" regarding how an mcu works. and irq, priority and pullup/downs.. a bit of algo and arduino reference.. Sure Mysensors looks easy to use. And that's true But if people think they don't need to learn this, even with multiple override, they will be limited, with more bugs, and more questions.. Then, of course, newbie would be happy to have done something, so he shares (thx). And an other noob comes, takes the sketch and share etc. finally where's quality.. I have rarely seen this (about delay) when i was learning from microchip community though And that's what I thought first time I saw arduino community! What this..so much people are using delay here! I will have to write my things from scratch, I can't trust, I will have not time to check everything..damn! Hopefully that's not completely true! Have they read some reference before starting? With all resources from arduino, I think there is no excuse Led blinking without delays etc.. Hmm, a bit philosophical..Vulgarisation, mastering I understand main Mysensors goals. Why not a graphical ui in place, which would use "blocks" instead of code? I'm always interested with your stuff @Theol and will keep an eye on this too

  @m26872 I am currently implementing a little wrapper around the MyMessage object to check for things like "Is it time to send again?!". I use 8000ms Sleep Cycle and then run a bunch of these functions: bool MySensorChild::timeok() { if(mymillis() - _lastsend > _interval || mymillis() < 60000) return true; else return false; } _lastsend is the time the sensor last updated its value. In addition to that I am planning to save the last value too to send only if necessary or after an defined "Minimum send" interval. Using sleep I had to use a little wrapper for millis() unsigned long static millis_offset = 0; unsigned long static mymillis() { return millis()+millis_offset; } and adding the offset myself: sleep(8000); // If powersaving is desired (8s, 4s, 2s, 1s, 500ms, 250ms, 125ms, 64ms, 32ms, 16ms millis_offset += 8000; In addition to that I implemented software ack, retrycount .. and display of RPD Signal Strength indicator. PS: Saving the "lastvalue" seems to be tough. At least if it should be done in a generic ways as the valuetype could be different each time .. int, float etc...

  One addition: If you power the Arduino directly (e.g. 2x AA = ~3,00V max) you can use ( http://provideyourown.com/2012/secret-arduino-voltmeter-measure-battery-voltage/ ). This will ofc. not work if you power your setup via VoltageRegulator. In addition to mfalkvidd's link have alook at https://www.mysensors.org/download/sensor_api_20#sleeping It describes how to use the sleep function to put the Arduino+Radio in sleep mode.

  Some notes on how the singleboard pc (also used by the domoticz software) would become aware of when it's currently an off-peak or a peak-hour: as mentioned, this is best done using a dynamic system (else it's equally useful to just use plain time switches and not have a singleboard pc running at all to get this done). For the dynamic system, I mentioned power companies can use a sort of PLC (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-line_communication ) system. That would have the advantage that the power company could use a same power cable to also transfer the data. This might be a bit too complicated for power companies to set up though in retrospect. Probably better is that they just run an rss-server instead. A seperate rss-server would need to be be running per country, or even per power company. Since it would be dynamic, it could even use a range of prices depending on the power production/demand ratio at that particular moment. The switches the singleboard pc then control can even be set to start/stop depending on the price at that moment, and stopped after a certain delay -this is most useful for say washing machines, ... as else there might be increased wear-). As all ready mentioned though, it's something power companies would need to set up, and since that isn't the case yet, we probably best just make a simpler, static system ourselves. That static system can then also function as an (off-line) back up, even when the dynamic systems are being made. For the static system: it would be most useful to make this as something that's user-settable (so that the user can change the standard settings to match the off-peak/peak hours his local electricity company set out, exactly). It should be made in such a fashion that even if there's no internet access on the singleboard pc, it can still be used. Similar to the dynamic system, the different switches can be activated/deactivated by the singleboard pc upon reaching a certain price range. Unlike the dynamic system though, there will off course only be 2 prices: that of the off-peak hours, and of the peak hours. These prices are best also made settable. The singleboard pc tend to use linux as the OS, so it needs to be written in say C++ Any volunteers ? PS: besides the ability of this program to activate and deactivate power plugs (i.e. via the fifthplay smart energy box hardware noted above), we'll also need special hardware to be able to route power in one of 2 possible directions. This is only needed though for the renewable power plants at home, when we use the simpler system mentioned. For the more complex one (with a battery system), it's not needed, as we can put an activatable/deactivatable switch both before and behind the battery bank.

  I suffer from the issue of having grand scheme but no skills. Do not think for a second I am not listening to you all. I might draft this up into a flow chart and trial some code to see if I can get it to work, the part I have issue with is my coding is slightly above "hello world" in that I can mix and match stuff, fix errors, but writing a new code is beyond me, so the UI for the controller is way more beyond me then I could imagine. would anyone even consider looking at what I do to help out? I actually want to use all the sketches on here and people can upload more, then when you go "thats a brilliant idea I need 5 of them" you buy the parts goto the UI select what you want, it states this is the wire up (this is the part that would be hard because I want it to give options not have everything on A0 for example) then you wire it, press send code and presto its working without wires to the computer.

  Hello Hek, thank you so much to try to help me - i found the problem now and i guess it´s the same problem many others have here: On almost all ESP12 GPIO 4 and 5 are labeled wrong I didn´t use a NodeMCU, but one of the other available boards As the CE pin is then connected to the wrong GPIO, it seems to work, Radio init ok, but as soon as the gateway sends something, it crashes Here are some interesting posts about that: https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino/issues/437 Maybe you should ad this notice to the build-section for the wifi gateway ? Best regards Klaus

  The capability to send SMS is not really needed in the MySensors library itself, but the Adafruit FONA library works together with the MySensors library (DEV version anyway). I added a sketch which make a node a SMS gateway if it is equipped with a SIM800L module. You can find it on Openhardware.io: https://www.openhardware.io/view/11/ACDCBatteries-capable-atmega328p-board The sketch is available under the design files and is now part of the MySensors library examples (again in the development version only). If you want to get notified of the fact that your internet connection is down, you will need to make something on the controller side to notice this and then send a V_TEXT to the node itself, or change a "switch" on the node, so that it can trigger the sending of a SMS.

  The problem is not really concerning RGB to HSV or vice-versa (BTW if you have a working-well RGB to HSV code, i'm interested. I'm currently using the FastLED one ...) The idea (and this is the main reason why HSV ever existed) is to get a easy and natural way to describe colors. For anyone in the world it is easyer to say "I want a red, pale, not so bright" light, instead of a" #FFAA11" light! When you are from a controller point of view, talking directly in HSV, allows to easily set a dim level (which is a major feature for a light, isn't it?), and a color (Hue). Devs like the Domoticz ones even dropped the Saturation at this time, but they are currently receiving (and could easily send) H(S)V values. Also most (if not all) javascript color pickers are natively talking HSV. About HSL vs HSV I think this not really important because it is just a story of different gamma correction / color space (if i understand well), and for devices intended as a Light (not as screen), color deviation is not a big issue. I just vote for the most used in related software (arduino lib + Javascripts color pickers), to try to match the requested color as accuratly as possible.

  @mfalkvidd Thank you very much for pointing me to the dev branch which now implements nodes on the gateway. Things are evolving really fast here I'm certainly gonna wait until it reach the master branch to use it "in production". While this is just an excellent news solving the sensor-on-gateway issues, it don't solve/standardize multiple arduinos communication. But maybe this feature is outside of the scope od MySensors, and should be developped independently by extending the Wire.h methods. Any other thoughts?

  I have a "manually" sketch for relay, you may add any number of relays, choose the PINs you want on Arduino. Of course you are limited by the type of the board you are using. You just have to copy/paste the same code and change the relay number 1, 2, 3, 4 etc: https://github.com/Mihai258/HomeAssistant-MySensors-MQTT/blob/master/Single sensor/MySensorMQTT_REL/MySensorMQTT_REL.ino Of course you have also to take care about already used PINs (some of them are used for the NRF24 module, some for LEDs if case etc).

  The sensors offer an analog value, so you have to use one of the Ax input of Arduino. I found an example of implementation here: http://www.homautomation.org/2013/09/17/current-monitoring-with-non-invasive-sensor-and-arduino/ I also plan to use such a device in my automation project in the near future and I am already prepared for that, I published few sketches with analog input usage, people have to use as they want the analog input values.

  In the BACnet protocol, the messages are not sent directly, but pushed into an internal state machine that remembers (some) of the previously messages sent (i.e. memorize(_msg); send(_msg); ). The state machine also peeks incoming messages and can trigger a message re-send in case of a missed ACK. the difference with MySensors is that all the messages are numbered, otherwise you would not know which message of the last N sent previously was ACKed, but well.. ACKing the last similar message might be good enough. Anyway @SiLeX : if you want to try, this is not that complicated, (if you don't take into account the STREAMs) it will just costs about (1 status byte + 1 timestamp + 1 frame size) x N ; for N frames memorized.

  @kr0815 Currently you cannot change the channel dynamically, as it is set to RF24_CHANNEL in MyTransportNRF24::init(). You could change the implementation of MyTransportNRF24::init() and pass the channel as a parameter.

  Thanks - that makes sense. It's probably short lived - micro processors are coming with more and more memory all the time so in a few years it won't matter at all for most things. Regarding the LED's - so does that mean the "approved" way to handle that is to just go in and edit the MyLeds.cpp file? I was hoping to avoid editing anything in the MS library because it becomes very hard to track source code configurations between different builds.

  hi @freerpg - I too suck at programming and had the same idea as you did several years ago... im pretty sure i also asked on a forum if someone could create such a program....i got told similar to whats be said above...and so i got stuck in and learnt it....well enough to get me by. Have a go, and i bet in a few months you will look at this post and laugh.... Heaps of people here and elsewhere can help... Actually... check out these vids for getting going with Arduino...awesome https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA567CE235D39FA84 Good luck!

  I have been a Vera user , all flavors , for more than 8 years now, I have tried Ui1.5.x.x and UI7.x.x ,I have tried the Vera Edge with approx 40 sensors and modules and using PLEG for controlling most all aspects of the Home automation. I found the Vera Edge could not handle all the Automation, tech support worked with me for 3 weeks to try to get the Edge to cooperate . I finally sent it back to where I bought the Unit. I changed over to my Veralite and my Vera3 and split the work up between the 2 controllers. I run Mysensor Ethernet Gateway on both of my controllers, 1 gateway for 2 Veras. I have Zwave motion sensors,Zwave modules, Zwave dimmer modules, Zwave Honeywell Thermostat and Temperature and Humid sensors that are Zwave. I have Mysensor door/window sensor built with Attiny 85, so much cheaper to build than using Nano or Pro-Mini I also have Scene controllers built with pro-Mini that control ceiling fans remotely, bedroom lights remotely, Entertainment Centers remotely. You get the Idea. Now nothing is perfect I have had my glitches but for FREE their is no other controller I will use , unless someone comes up with one as reliable and cost effect as MCV.

  Oop's! Maybe my own english is not at the right level. I used to read "water leak" as "not enough water" most probably because I did a confusion with "water lack". But according to WordReference, you're right ! So, yes, s_water_leak will do the trick. Thanks for your answer and sorry for the noise in the forum. Regards, Pierre

  Inclusive mode need only when configured network. It lasts one minute. No nide listen self pipe. After end inclusive mode, gateway listen self pipe his makes it possible to have a whole range of addresses

  @blacey Yup, @hek also pointed me in the directions of those changes. However, while reading up on the communication specs for the ws2812b (as I had in mind using for the GW), I found them to be very timing critical, so I think it would be too much trouble to implement this type of controller for the status LED's, and therefore I have dropped that idea again.

  Ok, so the following stuff isn't 100% correct anymore I guess.. (it's not Protocol.. and I've wondered for a while why each sensor is reporting the same library version as the rest and the node itself..) https://github.com/mysensors/Arduino/blob/master/NodeJsController/NodeJsController.js#L588 I'm not using this one, but rather a perl controller inspired by this.. Work In Progress..

  Never mind, I found it out myself by browsing through MySensor.cpp, apparently nodes are sending in their parentId during startup.

  @X-Ryl669 I'm happy to see what you come up with. @andriej There is a ongoing discussion here about creating a gw-device with a little bit more horsepower: http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/1137/gateway-device There is also the option of using RPi as combined controller/gateway. @celonunes is making an effort to join the current development branch with the separate Raspberry project.

  Interesting idea, Maybe you could let gateway unpack the COMBO message before handing it over to controller. This way no additional changes is needed on that side. I would appreciate if you wanted to create a github pull request (on the development branch) with your verified changes.

  Hi. That's the same problem I'm facing at my house, multiple levels, also the radios don't have enough coverage to reach the far end of the same floor (PA's radios do, but I only use them on the GW and MQTT GWs, can't use them on battery powered sensors for obvious reasons), so the multiple gw distribution system should be an ideal solution for me and people living in "castles" or "Faraday cages" XD Currently I have moved from a serial gw to Ethernet and MQTT gws (one Ethernet and one or two MQTTs), I find the Ethernet GW to be more stable than the MQTT ones (Client or Broker, same DIY PCB, I just pop out one nano and place the other) , your scenario 1, also some messages get mixed from time to time, even using different channels. Some times the GWs stop looping and I need to restart them, funny thing is that connecting to them in order to debug if they are running seem to jump-start the loop again. So my vote goes for scenario 2 also, plus, it should be interesting for the Ethernet GWs to act also like MQTT Clients and/or Brokers, because the IOT community is clearly taking that approach in their effort to "standardize" all the chaos that exists today. I think we should keep things as simple as possible, I've read this post: http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/887/future-network-topology-for-discussion And I think it's a superb idea, clustering the whole network into more easy to manage subnetworks, each one with a different topology connecting to a Network (TCP) controller through their GWs, all the complicated stuff should be done by the "Controller" the subnetworks should be as dumb as possible, leaving the heavy duty processing to the controller. I know this isn't much, I wish I knew more about all of this, but I hope my experience will be useful. Regards.
