You'd have to implement the serial protocol. But in all honesty why would you put in all that effort while Domoticz and Home Assistent already do it and support many more type of different protocols?

@ben999 Yes I have 3 gateways 1 nfrf and 1 rm for production. And 1 nrf gw for test. The test gw is on a separare PI

I might run a 4th gw. Also an rfm on the test machine.

@ben999 Thank you for the offer, but honestly I have been hand soldering SMD for the last few days true a magnifying glass. And I cursed a lot lol.

I will have two networks. NRF for inside the house and RFM for the outside.

I'm curious however how it will work out. So keeping an eye on this log.

What is the mount size of those capacitors. 0805 with a magnifying glass is kinda doable. But I don't think I can do smaller without having to buy a digital microscope

PJON is really Cool. But not always very practical. But the whole eco system is well thought off. I was much impressed when I read about it.

I grabbed one from the stock. And it the part you circled only has solder dots, no capacitor.

@ben999 I've been running my NRF network for over 10 years. They all have 100uf Capacitors - maybe a bit high - but besides some range problems it is stable.

Although because of the limited range, I'm switching to rfm69 radios.

I learned my lessons about bread boards. Slowly replacing my cheap AliExpress ones with good quality ones. I blew up 2 nano's and 1 nrf this week because of a bad breadboard

TheoL

Well it's nice that it can help people who want it. Maybe not all.

Nice work @Aymeric, thanks for reporting back!

@Aymeric are you sure the node isn’t sleeping for 5 seconds? WUP=-1 means it woke up by timer.

Check using an external clock, and/or turn on timestamps on the Arduino IDE log.
