1.4 Beta
-
I am in process of upgrading to 1.4b1 - have most things working. I noticed that my status consistently fails during setup() when presenting sensors AND also never receive a return message from controller after a time request. It's always the same two failures.
Everything works after adding a 100ms delay between calls. Not sure if there's a timing problem somewhere.
Hek - as always thanks for ALL your contributions. :-)

Arduino library and examples
https://github.com/mysensors/Arduino/tree/developmentVera plugin (1.4)
https://github.com/mysensors/Vera/tree/developmentHere are some of the hi-lights.
- Improved communication reliability (now uses hardware acks and resend functionality).
- Simplified sketches (only one include needed).
- Most common sleep scenarios build in.
- Helper for permanently storing values in the Arduinos EEPROM.
- Acknowledgments can now be requested from gateway and other sensors in network.
- Smaller footprint.
- The message structure has been adopted to work better on RPi platform.
- Binary payloads supported and used for integers between sensors.
- Configuration message (only metric setting in it today).
- Allow static parent (no dynamic lookups)
- Callbacks for incoming messages and time. No synchronous waiting methods any more -> no missed messages.
All examples in the development branch above has been converted to use the new functionality of the library.

If you want to store you own data in EEPROM you can use the provided saveState(), loadState(). It makes sure you won't overwrite anything important. If 256 bytes isn't enough you can start writing at position EEPROM_LOCAL_CONFIG_ADDRESS defined in MySensors.h.

You should probably not request ack back on a id-response. But I doubt that is the cause for transmission error. What is happening in the sensor node?
@hek Tried with no ack also. And the node doesn't recieve anything. I'm out of components to build myself a sniffer right now.. Might have to kill something.. :boom: I can recieve From the node though.. but the node does not read from gateway..

@hek I fixed the problem , it was the RF24_PA_LEVEL_GW .. needed to be low.
You are correct with the ack on id-response, it gets all fucked up. Stuck in loop requesting ID 10+times/second. And doesnt register the id.. Too bad. would be really good for me to know if the sensor actually got the id_response or not... (and if it's sent as node 255 or node newid doesnt really matter..)
edit:
I changed my aproach to checking if sendRoute(msg) is true. But I still have a problem that the node actually recieves the packagt but just ignored is. sometimes I need to reset the node for it to get accept the new ID.. example;0;0;3;9;read: 255-255-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0: 0;0;3;9;send: 0-0-255-255 s=255,c=3,t=4,pt=1,l=1,st=ok:20 0;0;3;9;read: 255-255-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0: 0;0;3;9;send: 0-0-255-255 s=255,c=3,t=4,pt=1,l=1,st=ok:21 0;0;3;9;read: 255-255-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0: 0;0;3;9;send: 0-0-255-255 s=255,c=3,t=4,pt=1,l=1,st=ok:22 0;0;3;9;read: 255-255-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0: 0;0;3;9;send: 0-0-255-255 s=255,c=3,t=4,pt=1,l=1,st=ok:23I'll try to look at the debug output on the node tomorrow..
btw: \n missing line 278 mysensor.cpp debug(PSTR("version mismatch"));

The controller will be responsible for initiating and serving the new sketch version. There is basically no changes in gateway except being able to handle binary data.

How do I get this started Henrik?

Until @ToSa is back, I suggest you have a look at how the NodeJSController serves hex-files.

@hek I wanted to update my MQTT gateway to 1.4beta state but run into a problem with the serial message format.
If I interpret the code right, the messages sent (in serial message format) to the ethernet gateway (over ethernet, so from my linux system running the MQTT gateway) contain 6 fields, of which the 4th is the ack flag.
Messages received from the ethernet gateway contain 5 fields, with no ack indication.
Shouldn't the message format be identical in both directions, as it is for the 1.3 version?http://yveaux.blogspot.nl

...so for outgoing you enable receiver to send ack back. And incoming the flag indicates if this as an ack or regular message.
Make sense?

Short question. I'm browsing the 1.4 code and is there a replacement for waitForMessage? I've looked into the code online but can't seem to find it. And if not, is it possible to attach the radio to an interrupt to call an interrupt routine on incoming message?

@John said:

The last question is a definite yes, see for example https://github.com/Yveaux/NRF24_Sniffer/blob/master/Arduino/NRF24_sniff/NRF24_sniff.ino function handleNrfIrq. Connect the NRF24 IRQ to pin 2 and call attachInterrupt to register the interrup handler.
Be very careful what you do in this interrupt handler, though. Don't try to receive any message for example, as the SPI access to the NRF24 is not interrupt-proof, as is the MySensors library!

Yep, as @Yveaux says, be careful what you do inside interrupt handler.
Not sure what you try to archive here.. but in 1.4 you should usually just call process() in your loop(). The callback you registered a in begin(callback) will be called on incoming messages.
See RelayActuator for an example.
