Nice ! Very clean GUI !

I installed this controller on RPI with serial gateway and it works like a charm with two TEMP sensors.

It will be good if you can use the RPI GPIO to connect directly to NRF24 RF module instead on adding the serial gateway ( see http://iot-playground.com ..)

I wish you good luck with this project.

[GertSanders]

Actually, you can add the NRF24 directly to the Raspberry and use it as a gateway at the same time:

Yes, I have plan to implement NRF24l01 directly. I have to learn more about how mysensors gateway is working. Also planing to implement RPI GPIO port access from MyController.org directly

I wish you good luck with this project.

Thank you! @davidbd

Thank you @GertSanders let me have a look. As MyController.org is designed with pure Java language I have to implement with some wrapper or with the help of pi4j module

[GertSanders]

@jkandasa
I used the Raspberry version of Mysensors gateway for software to set up a serial gateway. Then Inadded a symlink link with shorter name so domoticz could see it. If your software can detect the normal ttyMySensorGateway then no need for a symlink.
Hardware toconnect radio and raspberry is simple interconnect with GPIO. Same connections as with wire. I made a little board for it. Link to that is also somewhere on the forum.

@GertSanders This is nice, I guess no need to change anything in MyController software. Let me check this and update you. Thank you.

[jkandasa]

@GertSanders @davidbd Just now I tested https://github.com/mysensors/Raspberry with MyController.org server it is working perfectly. Thank you very much! you guys saved hardware cost and added direct NRF24 support to MyController.org

I did all the steps as root user (running MyController.org server also as a root user). Kindly let me know if you face any issues.

Install https://github.com/mysensors/Raspberry and connect NRF24L01+ as mentioned on the page.

Now we have to point-out ttyMySensorsGateway port to MyController.org server via it is configuration file

Stop your MyController server change a line,
File Name: mycontroller/conf/mycontroller.properties

mcc.serialport.name=/dev/ttyMySensorsGateway

Start your MyController server. That is it

[ericvdb]

The 100% cpu usage happens only if nothing connects to /dev/ttyMySensorsGateway, at least thats what i experienced.

[GertSanders]

My CPU load hardly ever goes over 1%, and that is including a running Domoticz controller in parallel with the serial gateway.

[davidbd]

@jkandasa As reported by users ... the 100% cpu usage happens only if nothing connects to /dev/ttyMySensorsGateway
I am OK now but maybe worth to check why as this is not good behaviour.

[tbowmo]

Just finished setting up MyController, so it runs besides domoticz, and NodeRed. Looks fine so far, but haven't had that much time to delve into MyController specifics yet.

Have set it up so that when ever I turn a light on / off in MyController, Domoticz also sees this (and of course the sensor network).

Plan was to try and use MyController for OTA firmware updates, and keep track of firmware versions in my network.

[diggs]

For some reason cannot seem to get it running.

Have installed the software and the server appears to start, but there is no web access and this is what I get when I check the log.

Have I setup something incorrect

@jkandasa Thanks for that.

The latest Java version has go me going as far as server access goes, but I am having issues opening the serial port it seems.

I am trying to run in parallel with Domoticz, but I maybe having an issue trying to access the same port I am guess.

Suggestions on how to get around that?

I guess you cannot share same port for two different applications. We may go with some third party tools to share serial port across applications. But, I do not have any experience on it.

In this case to run MyController server, stop MyController server and Domoticz controller, then start MyController server, it will work.

[diggs]

@jkandasa Thanks

Have now done all that. Stopped the Domoticz server, started Mycontroller. I get the webpage up now, but still no nodes showing up and for some reason nothing is being written to my logs the past few hours at all.

What can I look at?

[davidbd]

@diggs

• stop the server
• connect to your serial port and see if you get any response from gateway ( minicom/miniterm etc ... )
• If above work , check your config for correct serial ports settings.
• If above doesnt work not check your serial gateway

[diggs]

@davidbd Thanks for the reply.

Yep, can connect to the port and see the node / gateway data in the line.

Still nothing though in the Mycontroller

@diggs just now I tested with RPI native port(/dev/ttyACM0 /dev/ttyAMA0) and gives some issue, let me find out the root cause,

@jkandasa OK thanks

At least I am not going crazy

@diggs Just now I confirmed that issue is not with MyController server. I didn't disable default kernel console access of serial port. Hence I couldn't not access inbuilt RPI serial port from MyController server.
I followed this page to gain user access for RPI default serial port.

Now I can access default RPI serial port without any trouble. Hope you are also facing same issue.

[diggs]

@jkandasa Checked my settings and they were already set as per that article, so I don't believe that is the trouble I am facing. From the logs I sent you, anything else you think could be causing the issue. Was the port being opened OK in the system?

@diggs Can you check on your RPI do you have /dev/ttyAMA0?

pi@raspberrypi ~ $ ls -lh /dev/ttyA*
crw-rw---T 1 root dialout 204, 64 Jan  1  1970 /dev/ttyAMA0

If you have /dev/ttyAMA0 try MyController server with /dev/ttyAMA0. I hope it should work. Kindly post your RPI hardware and software details.

[diggs]

@jkandasa I do have an AMA0, but it does not work on that one either. The gateway is definitely connected to ACM0. Which is the one it works on when I have Domoticz connected up.

Something odd is happening with the PI USB side of things. Tried switching to another port but no luck there either.

As a side, I installed on windows and it works fine, so I know the gateway is OK, but I really want it running on the PI at some point

This is fantastic. Thank you!

I am very grateful but I do have a feature request. I am collecting data in a greenhouse (and in the gardens) with mysensors. The more automation, the better. However, there are some instruments we still use manually, record data in a notebook, maybe copy to excel and manually create charts. It is very tedious and isolated form the automated sensor data.

It seems with your controller I can add a custom sensor (or use any of the other sensors) and with the Action board send data to the sensor. The feature I want is to enter data and have it appear as if the sensor sent the data. This data would then be logged along with all the automated data.

For example, we manually measure Nitrites. If I could add a custom sensor (a Manual Entry Sensor) and the action board allowed receiving data from the sensor it would provide a huge benefit. (No send data for this type of sensor is needed, only receive).

I am not sure how much work would be needed but it could also be used to test rules and other configurations.

Thanks for your work.

IMO, That's one of the good reasons to use MQTT as the communication system. MySensors gets translated to MQTT messages by the gateway and that's all the controller sees. Then adding more "readings" from manual sources or any other source is just a matter of sending a message into the system from that source. There are any number of GUI and command line tools (mosquitto_pub) you can use to post a message that would make entering manual readings very easy.

[bpair]

@TD22057 I do like MQTT but I wish the topic format was more standardized for sensor networks. I could certainly even see using something like dweet.io for publishing these messages to the world (beyond the mqtt broker).

However in this case I plan to have different students and classes adding sensors, manually taking measurements, etc.. If the MyController Action board was an easy 1 stop place for this, making it easy to add new "manual sensors" without the problems of how to format the topic or how to post an mqtt message from the command line it would be great.

I have thought about formalizing this manual entry with Node-Red but MyController is better than what I could create.

[jkandasa]

@bpair Thank you to give a try with MyController! I understand that you want to create a chart(automatically by MyController) for your custom data and you want to disable send payload option for some sensors.

Can you give some example how your data will be looking? Is it pure numeric data? And what is the custom variable have you used?

To disable send payload we have ticket, I'm working on it https://github.com/mycontroller-org/mycontroller/issues/5

@TD22057 The current MQTT gateway supports only limited features and a big drawback is we cannot use it directly on internet as it does not have any security option and limited to number of connections

For this reason I'm implementing MQTT broker support in MyController server. Here we can connect our mysensors gateway (serial/Ethernet) to MyController. Connect all our MQTT client to MyController with authentication

[bpair]

@jkandasa Wow, quick replies.

Actually the charts are not that critical but it would be very simple charts showing the value with a custom unit (for example mg/L) over time. The unit should be specified when adding the sensor to MyController.

There will never be a physical sensor connected to MyController for these custom sensors. These are virtual sensors. Because there is no physical sensor connected to MyController a person would be manually entering the data (the person is the sensor).

An example may help:

We have a fish tank with sensors for measuring water temperature, pH, and water level. The data from these sensors is easily sent to a controller as well as to thingspeak or a local database.

Data for ammonia, nitrates and nitrites is also recorded but we have no sensor recording this data. A person manually records these measurements in a notebook.

I do not want the person to record this data in a notebook. I want this person to record the data in MyController. Then all of the data from the sensors and all of the data manually entered would be in the same place.

So I would add a custom sensor to MyController with a name of "Tank A Nitrates" and a unit of "mg/L". The Action Board shows the new sensor and lets me enter a sensor reading - 1.5 mg/L.

Does that make sense?

@bpair For now if you use the variable which is returning (somewhat matches for you V_LEVEL)

return PAYLOAD_TYPE.PL_DOUBLE;

you will get graphical report. Check in the code

And you can add your own custom unit. Under Action Board on your custom sensor click on the image edit and update your unit.

In document you can see under the section 4.10 Edit

I'm sure I'm not understanding something, but isn't that a lot more complicated than it needs to be? Why isn't MyController just an MQTT client that connects to an existing broker? So Arduinos <-> MQTTClientGateway <-> Mosquitto <-> MyController. If MyController subscribes to the MS messages from the broker and publishes command messages to the broker, everything works fine. Security and everything else is already handled by the existing broker software (Mosquitto).

@TD22057 MyController supports MQTT gateway(connects with existing broker) also but with limited feature. The current MQTTClientGateway doesn't support firmware upgrade and some other features which is required to use all the features in MyController. So if we use Serial/Ethernet gateway we can use all the features from MyController at the same time I do not want to restrict people with MyController, So if I provide MQTT broker they can connect all their clients with MyController.

@jkandasa Great. I just tried it. I used send on the activity board and it appears to be doing what i meant by Receive. Of course once you fix that "bug" it may not work like that anymore.

But I did see the data on the chart.

@bpair As I mentioned on the bug, that's all users wish they can disable/enable payload option. After the fix also still you can feed your data via action board (if you enabled send payload option). I hope for now your requirement fulfilled.

I understand that the resulting package is less, but I use the default gateway mysensors MQTT.
help solve this problem.

Log message says that you are using MyController 0.0.2-alpha5(mycontroller-standalone-0.0.2-alpha5). This version of MyController supports only for MySensors-1.6 dev branch. And the MQTT format should be MY_MQTT_TOPIC_PREFIX/NODE-ID/SENSOR-ID/CMD-TYPE/ACK-FLAG/SUB-TYPE

Refer this for more details: https://github.com/mycontroller-org/mycontroller/issues/33

what is the point to move to 1.6 when gateway may only client?

@artur Not only gateway will be client, we have other features like Get node details without reboot(via I_PRESENTATION), ping status for node(heartbeat), MQTT full support (supports all the commands, you can do firmware update also), like we have many features available in 1.6. Anyhow we have to support all the features once 1.6 released. Hence I started implementing 1.6 features slowly one by one.

[artur]

certainly it sounds tempting, but I just could not find in the examples, see only MQTT client initially.

I realized 1.6 is still in development?

@artur Yes, 1.6 is in development branch. you can find MQTT client here

and who will MQTT broker?

You are right! I misunderstood something here! I believe I have to create code for MQTT broker with MyController
