Error compiling mysensors in beaglebone black

[ruben_gr]

@mfalkvidd Why you think that this error is related to SPI? i'm not using RF modules neither GPIO, just ethernet.

[mfalkvidd]

@ruben_gr because the gateway fails to init the nrf24 radio.

Add --my-transport=none to the configure command and go back to the make step if you don't want to use the default setting of nrf24.

@mfalkvidd thank you.

I want to connect MySensors gateway to my homeassistant. I check the ipaddress and are correct. Why do i get this error? Or how can i debug it?

@ruben_gr are you still using —my-controller-ip-address in the configure command? In that case remove it, your controller will connect to the gateway.

[ruben_gr]

It works, thank you for your patience!!

But just to understand it, why i don't need —my-controller-ip-address?

Btw, i want to build my own serial modules to connect to this gateway. Can you share with me the RS485 protocol of MySensors? Can i use RS485 just as a serial port without addresses?

Thank you again.

@ruben_gr the technical reason is that the default mode is that the gateway listens for incoming connections from a controller. Since you've configured your controller to connect to the gateway, the default mode is what you need.

Some controllers accept (expect?) the gateway to connect to the controller instead. That's when my-controller-ip-address is used.

About rs485: I don't know. I have never used rs485. But MySensors expects to talk to other Mysensors nodes, you can't add stuff that doesn't speak the mysensors protocol. Mysensors uses node ID for addressing. https://www.mysensors.org/about/overview might be useful.

[ruben_gr]

@mfalkvidd Understood.

Right, but if i use the same protocol i think that it's possible to connect both. I want to connect BeagleBone to PIC microcontroller, that is not supported by MySensors, but i will try to migrate from arduino to PIC. Thank you.

[mfalkvidd]

@ruben_gr thanks for explaining. Your strategy makes sense, at least to me :-) If you find migration of the entire MySensors library too cumbersome, you could probably make do with just migrating the transport protocol parts.

[ruben_gr]

@mfalkvidd Yes. Thank you!
