@Gumers could you post your presentation function?

@Gumers that depends on what you have Did you use the ethernet gateway sketch? or something else?

What typ of sensor do you want to create?

Could you post the entire log?

@rmtucker said in nRF5 Bluetooth action!:

But what is the transportGetSendingRSSI(void)?

This is the RSSI of the receiver. With nRF5 it's part of the ACK payload.

Ok. I give up. If the node isn't executing the serial prints I know no way of troubleshooting.

@Dick

Serial.print("Number of attached sensors found by the DallasTemperature library: ");
Serial.println(numSensors);

@Dick could you try printing the value of numSensors in presentation()? (or in loop, it should have the same value there)

@Dick thanks. The node still doesn't send any values so that's why it does not show up in Domoticz.

My next step would be to manually add serial debug prints at end of setup(), presentation(), and almost everywhere in loop(), to see why it doesn't attempt to send.

I had 3 switches for window lights(pro mini 5v, arduino relay) and they worked flawless! (Anything else and my wife would unplug them). I moved away because of security (240 to 5v before HLK discussion.) but never had any issues with reception/radio or missed commands.

It is possible to do with MySensors and with my small experience in the forum many posts seems to be about power issues/interference actuator vs radio/power.

There are one situation I'm not sure about which I have not been able to test and that is using actuator with a repeater in between... but I will soon have the logging possibilities for gw/repeater and actuator at the same time.

@NeverDie said in Why I quit using MySensors for actuators:

we're more likely to notice an actuator fault than a sensor fault?

Judging from recent measurements I'm quite sure this is the cause. Especially a wireless actuator switched by a wireless sensor requires 2 succesful message transmissions. If one of them fails you will notice immediately.

To make things worse, sensors often only transmit a new value if it changed w.r.t. the previous one. If an isochronal sensor skips a sensor value at the gateway, we'll never know if it just didn't send the value because it was identical to the previous one, or if a new value wasn't received.

@Dick if you get the same log on the Arduino as before changing to wait, the sketch upload must have failed. Perhaps your Arduino is broken?
Edit: Sorry, didn't see your last reply.

What does the node log say now?
