[SOLVED] Need help with ESP8266 MQTT Gateway (RFM69HW radio)

willemx

Thank you for your setup example. It is nearly identical to my setup (only I use RFM69HW's).
The only thing I can think of now is that the radio modules must be defective, but I have no means to test this) So I ordered a new batch of RFM69's and hope for the best...

[Edit]
I see that you do not use the following defines as instructed in link text:

#define MY_RFM69_IRQ_PIN D1
#define MY_RFM69_IRQ_NUM MY_RFM69_IRQ_PIN
#define MY_RFM69_CS_PIN D8

I have tried both with and without these defines, but it makes no difference.

electrik

Did you try to add a capacitor next to the power pins?

willemx

Yes, I added a capacitor to both radio's.

tekka

@willemx And you have 868Mhz modules?

willemx

Yes, that is what I ordered and also it is marked on the radio PCB's.

tekka

@willemx Can you try with the new rfm69 driver & debug verbose mode on both, node & gw - i.e.

#define MY_RFM69_NEW_DRIVER
#define MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_RFM69

and post the debug logs here.

willemx

config on WEMOS D1 gateway:

#define MY_RADIO_RFM69
#define MY_RFM69_NEW_DRIVER
#define MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_RFM69
#define MY_IS_RFM69HW

@willemx said in Need help with ESP8266 MQTT Gateway (RFM69HW radio):

450 !RFM69:INIT:SANCHK FAIL

There is a problem with the rfm69 module and/or wiring on your GW - can you exchange the rfm69 module with the one from the node and post the logs?

willemx

:tada: :tada: :tada:
You were right; there was a minuscule piece of wire strand between two contacts and after removing it all is fine now.
Also checked all the radio's again which is easy now I have a working configuration and there was indeed one defective radio module.
Thanks everyone for unblocking me!

tekka

@willemx Excellent! Have fun! :+1:
