mysensors integration freezes when it triggers switch.toggle

  • kiesel

    Hi,

    I have an IR-sensor attached to one of my nodes. The goal is to be able to trigger various automations with my TV remote. So far most seem to be working fine, except for switches.

    I am using this automation:

    alias: 'Infrared Debug'
trigger:
  platform: state
  entity_id: sensor.mysensors_wohnzimmer_main_3_3
condition:
  condition: template
  value_template: "{{ trigger.to_state.state != '0' }}"
action:
  - service: system_log.write
    data_template:
      message: >
              "Automation IR Debug: {{trigger.to_state.state}}"
      level: warning
  - service: switch.toggle
    entity_id: switch.kleine_lampe

    When I press the same button a view times the switch gets toggled but at some point the whole integration stops working. Here is an annotated logfile. My comments are {written like this}:

    After this the integration doesn't answer to any more messages, though HA is running fine and I can toggle the lamp from lovelace.

    This doesn't happen with other services, it's just the switch that has this issue. It also happens when I use switch.turn_on and switch.turn_off.

    The switch is a tasmota-flashed plug, controlled by MQTT.

    Does anybody have an idea what I am doing wrong or how I can debug this further?

    I decided to wait for some time after a freeze and I noticed that the gateway comes back after max 15 minutes:

    Am I reading this right that the connection to the chip failed? Any ideas how this could happens and what triggers a restart?

    Even more weirdness: I tried to workaround this by creating an input_boolean, to decouple the switch.toggle from the mysensors integration.

    I am using this automation to toggle the input_boolean:

    alias: 'Infrared Debug'
trigger:
  platform: state
  entity_id: sensor.mysensors_wohnzimmer_main_3_3
condition:
  condition: or
  conditions:
    - condition: template
      value_template: "{{ trigger.to_state.state == '551505585' }}"
    - condition: template
      value_template: "{{ trigger.to_state.state == '34469099' }}"
action:
  - service: system_log.write
    data_template:
      message: >
              "Automation IR Debug: {{trigger.to_state.state}}"
      level: warning
  - service: input_boolean.toggle
    entity_id: input_boolean.wa_kleine_lampe_infrared_switch

    And this automation to toggle the switch when a change of the input_boolean is detected:

    alias: 'Infrared Debug'
trigger:
  platform: state
  entity_id: input_boolean.wa_kleine_lampe_infrared_switch
action:
  - service: switch.toggle
    entity_id: switch.kleine_lampe

    Still, the integration freezes for some time. If I omit the second automation (don't toggle the switch) then I can press the remote button for all eternity (untested) and the integration doesn't crash/freeze.

    There must be some sort of feedback that's too much for the mysensors integration. I noticed the switch is somewhat slow, could the slowness of the switch be the issue here? It's a plug running the newest tasmota firmware (updated it because of this issue).

    @kiesel what type of transport do you use? Serial, MQTT, Ethernet? Have you read this paragraph from the manual:
    "The MySensors switch platform exposes a service to change an IR code attribute for an IR switch device and turn the switch on. The IR switch will automatically be turned off after being turned on, if optimistic is set to true in the configuration for the MySensors component. This will simulate a push button on a remote. If optimistic is false, the MySensors device will have to report its updated state to reset the switch"?
    Maybe this is the problem?

    If I get that correctly then that manual is about sending an IR-code to a node, but I am receiving an IR-code from a node. Based on that code I then want to do certain things, like turning a lamp on.

    I am using a serial gateway, here is the corresponding config:

    mysensors:
  gateways:
        - device: '/dev/ttyUSB0'
          baud_rate: 38400

    And here is the sketch of the node with the IR-receiver:

    The node is waken up by an interrupt when the ir-sensor reads a code. It also polls the other two sensors (temp/humid, lux) once every 90 seconds.

    Ok, so I think I have been getting at this the wrong way around...

    Switching the switch on and off kills the integration/the gateway, it doesn't matter whether the node sent an ir-code to the gateway first. I verified this by opening lovelace and turning the switch on and off from there a few times. The result is that no new messages can be received from any nodes.

    The switch in question is a tasmota flashed Gosund SP1 switch that has auto-discovery for Home Assistant activated (SetOption19). It connects to Home Assistant via mqtt. Since the gateway is a serial gateway I can't see how mqtt messages could kill the gateway.

    I found the issue. Everything works as expected when I use put the plug into another outlet. So this must be a power issue. I will create another thread for how to fix this.

    @kiesel interesting! But weird 🙂
    But why the power issue with one of the devices connected to HA breaks integration with Mysensors particularly?
