SerialGateway can't send to nodes via rules or Serial Monitor

let me look that up and try :)

msg.setDestination

Here is a silly question, do I need on msg variable per sensor on my arduino node - Currently I only have one, and do a msg.preset for each?

These are the rules I have (only applicable to this problem):

//switch function
val org.eclipse.xtext.xbase.lib.Functions$Function4 switchOperation = [
    org.openhab.core.library.items.SwitchItem relayItem, 
    org.openhab.core.library.items.StringItem arduinoItem, 
    String arduinoDevMap,
    Integer subType|
    
    logInfo("Function: switchOperation ","Starting for " + relayItem.name)
    
    var Integer state = 0
    if (relayItem.state != null)
    {   if (relayItem.state == ON) {
        state = 1
    }
    else {
        state = 0
    }
    
    logInfo("Function: switchOperation ",arduinoDevMap + "1;1;" + subType + ";" + state )
    
    }
 
    arduinoItem.sendCommand(arduinoDevMap + "1;0;" + subType + ";" + state + "\n")
]

// Mappings
var HashMap<String, String> sensorToItemsMap = newLinkedHashMap(
    "101;0;"            -> "Balcony_Temperature_Soil"
    ,"Balcony_Temperature_Soil"       -> "101;0;"
    ,"101;1;"            -> "Balcony_Temperature_Air"
    ,"Balcony_Temperature_Air"       -> "101;1;"
    ,"101;2;"            -> "Balcony_Humidity_Air"
    ,"Balcony_Humidity_Air"       -> "101;2;"
    ,"101;3;"            -> "Balcony_Light_Lux"
    ,"Balcony_Light_Lux"       -> "101;3;"
    ,"101;4;"            -> "Balcony_Water_Relay"
    ,"Balcony_Water_Relay"      -> "101;4;"
)

  

rule "Balcony_Water_Relay Switch Rule"
    when
        Item Balcony_Water_Relay changed
    then
    logInfo("Water Relay","Changing state of Water Relay")
        switchOperation.apply(Balcony_Water_Relay, Arduino, sensorToItemsMap.get("Balcony_Water_Relay"), V_LIGHT)
        	
               
end

Sorry, I'm not the one to ask for openhab help.

jgporteous

Ok, so if I take a step back and exclude OpenHab.

Surly I should be able to send data from gateway to a node?
I can send from node to gateway, and ACK is returned successfully.

So, If I use a serial interface and send a string, like I did above, should that work with API 1.5?

hek

The api in 1.5 isn't built for attaching sensors on the gateway itself (when it comes to presenting and sending data to the controller). But if you hack around a bit you can do like the Serial gateway example and send out messages from the gateway to nodes in the radio network.

In the branch I'm working on now the gateway acts like any other sensor.

Hi Hek,

I don't want to add a sensor to the gateway, I want to send a command to a node with the sensor.

Hi Everyone,

I tried adding the following code to my gateway, to see if it will send the value to the sensor to set it, but it fails with:
0;0;3;0;9;send: 0-0-101-101 s=2,c=1,t=2,pt=2,l=2,sg=0,st=fail:1

Added to loop():

  if (!sentSensorValue)
  {
	  delay(2500);
	  MyMessage message;
	  message.setDestination(101);
	  message.setSensor(2);
	  message.setType(2);
	  message.set(1);

	  gw.send(message);
	  sentSensorValue = true;
  }

How are you powering your GW ( arduino and radio)? st=fail:1 usually indicates a problem with power (radio is more sensitive to power noise / fluctuations ).

( arduino and radio)

Hi,

I'm powering the gateway from raspberry pi 2 and has a 10uF Cap.
The node is powered from Arduino Nano and has a 22uF Cap.

I have tried giving each radio module a separate power supply but that didn't help.

What is interesting though, is that the module sends sensor values for 4 sensors and with ACK, the gateway (Arduino) replies successfully. The failure only comes when I try send from parse information from serial input.

I think I'm going to try put bigger capacitors on each and see what happens... just not sure how big I can go :)

I upgraded the Cap on the gateway to a 47uF and no change...

This is the serial monitor of the Node, as you can see, it's successfully transmitting data:

I did another test, I sent all presentation of sensors to request ACK and this below is the output.
Although there is only two fails, I think I'm going to have to setup dedicated power for each and try again... unless there is another way?

Added ACK to one of my senors, node sending values correctly, but ACK failing.

I've bumped up the CAP on the gateway to 330uF and no change :(

I also dropped bandwidth to 250Kbps and power to low, no change either.

SerialGateway can't send to nodes via rules or Serial Monitor
