MySensors and Vera UI7

[hek]

@gregl seems to have it working on UI7 using Ethernet gateway. Not sure if serial gateway works though.

well, i guess patience is a virtue i don't possess... i did find an error in my code where i forgot to add the gw.sendSketchInfo() to the gateway, so i fixed that and it finally created the child device. Now testing other sensor types. will try to post updates if there are any issues. thanks for the help!

@hek : Do you have plans to upgrade the plugin for UI7 use ? I know the guys at MCV are willing to assist any developer with the upgrade :

Don't think my family would enjoy the failing home automation which probably would be the result if I upgrade our "production" Vera.

Would be great if someone who actually is running UI7 would assist with the necessary changes. What is not working for you?

[gregl]

Yeah i wouldnt be using UI7 on a production Vera yet.

That said i dont think there is anything actually broken with the mySensors plugin with it other than some cosmetic issues...

[Anticimex]

I am stuck on UI7 (device refuses to downgrade and I have not bothered about contacting support to have them unlock it) and I have so far only experienced HW/FW failures with my gateway (not that Vera is a good product, far from it). But I also cannot point on anything specific with UI7 that is not compatible with MySensors plugin v1.4 apart from said cosmetic details.

[C.r.a.z.y.]

New version Vera have 1 USB and 1 ethernet and wifi, it will be on sale in a few weeks with ui7.
I dont know why some plugins work with ui5 but not compatiable with ui7.

Do you have any plan to make an update for mysensors plugin?

[hek]

I don't run UI7 myself.
But others have reported here and on micasa that it works fine in UI7 (part from some GUI alignment).

I just purchased a veraedge and manage to get the usb gateway to be recognized. Unfortunatly I do not know how to get my sensors to be recognized. Inhave tried the discover button followed by a reset of the sensor without succes. I have also tried to create a new device with the dArduino1.xml but can not get this configured with my device.

So after reading everything I could find on the topic I am desperate to find a solution with the vera edge or an another controller that could work as stand alone or on a pc.

@legaultf Which UI7 firmware are you running on your VeraEdge?

[jeylites]

A trick I learned right after creating devises is to click on " Reload Luup". Then give it a couple of minutes and you should see the created devices on DEVICES on VERA.

" Reload Luup". could be access from Apps -> Develop apps -> Serial Port configuration -> Reload Luup

I've learnt the same trick. Reload Luup from the serial config screen.
After a couple of trials and then finding the UI7 on Github - all's working fine with my first light sensor.
Now to building my solar HWS sensors. Thanks Hek for all your work and patience with everyone, a donation is on the way for you to buy a UI7 device. Cheers!
