Arduino never reaches setup() or loop() when rs485 connection is down



  • I am trying to add MySensors connectivity via rs485 on diy thermostats (arduino based)

    As long as I have a connection to a rs485 gateway things seems to be working fine, but if the connection is lost (or the gateway-program on my Linux box is not running) the thermostat never starts up. only the code in before() is executed

    Is that the expected behavior, and is there anyway around this ?

    I need my thermostats to work even if there is no connectivity to the MySensors infrastructure.

    Here is what I see on the serial port of the arduino when the gateway is down.

    welcome to the forum @storepeter !

    Yes this is expected default behavior, but it can be changed. Exactly how things should work varies a bit from different use cases, but see the documentation for MY_TRANSPORT_WAIT_READY_MS and search for that keyword in the forum to find some ways to do it.

    See the flowchart "node boot sequence" at https://www.mysensors.org/download/sensor_api_20#node-boot-sequence to see how changing MY_TRANSPORT_WAIT_READY_MS will affect how code is executed.

    If you have any questions, just post them here.



  • Thank you so much, just the input I needed.

    Works like a charm, I have included the output from the serial port, if any one else wonders what to expect.
