Can't get RFM69 working



  • I created a gateway with the RFM69 and a sensor with it. When i look at the serial monitor from the gateway i get

    0;0;3;0;9;gateway started, id=0, parent=0, distance=0
    0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete.
    

    Now i try to send something like: 10;1;1;1;2;0

    then i get the startup message again:

    0;0;3;0;9;gateway started, id=0, parent=0, distance=0
    0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete.
    0;0;3;0;9;gateway started, id=0, parent=0, distance=0
    0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete.
    0;0;3;0;9;gateway started, id=0, parent=0, distance=0
    0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete.
    

    When i try to send something with the sensor i get the know fail message.

    When uploading the serial gateway i enabled the RFM69:

    //MyTransportNRF24 transport(RF24_CE_PIN, RF24_CS_PIN, RF24_PA_LEVEL_GW);
    MyTransportRFM69 transport;
    

    How can i set this for the sensors?



  • Hello,

    Did you set RFM69 parameters in MyConfig.h ?

    Put your gateway and sensor code. Without it's difficult to help you.
    I spent several hours to set mine.

     * DESCRIPTION
     * The ArduinoGateway prints data received from sensors on the serial link. 
     * The gateway accepts input on seral which will be sent out on radio network.
     *
     * The GW code is designed for Arduino Nano 328p / 16MHz
     *
     * Wire connections (OPTIONAL):
     * - Inclusion button should be connected between digital pin 3 and GND  
     * - RX/TX/ERR leds need to be connected between +5V (anode) and digital pin 6/5/4 with resistor 270-330R in a series
     *
     * LEDs (OPTIONAL):
     * - To use the feature, uncomment WITH_LEDS_BLINKING in MyConfig.h
     * - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
     * - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
     * - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error

    And i have set the RFM in the config.h to: #define RFM69_FREQUENCY RF69_433MHZ



  • What is your hardware configuration ? Looks like the gateway is in a reset loop, no ? Possible power issue ?



  • Arduino uno > level shifter > RFM69HW

    the level shifter / RFM is powered by a separate 5 > 3.3v converter.



  • hello,

    How did you powered the rfm69 on the uno ? using the 3.3 from the uno or using a voltage regulator ?
    I first used voltage regulator but I encountered some issues with the uno so I finally directly used the 3.3 from the uni board.

    another thing, remove not used include such 'MyTransportNRF24' in your code.

    I will post my gateway and sensor code thus evening as I can't do it from my phone now ...



  • The RFM is powered by the regulator. Havent tried to power it from the 3v from the arduino yet.



  • Hello,

    The code as promise.
    For the gateway I don't change a lot of thing from the example provided in the lib:

  • Thanks, will try it 🙂



  • How do you change I/O pins define for the RFM69 if using a different platform??

    will this work under 1.6 development ?

    Thanks



  • @carlierd I tried to compile your gateway but i get this error:

  • Hello,

    I am using stable version of MySensors not the dev branch. What version are you using ?

    David





  • @Sweebee said:

    SerialGateway:52: error: no matching function for call to 'MySensor::MySensor(MyTransportRFM69&, MyHwATMega328&, MySigningAtsha204Soft&, int, int, int)'

    Did you enabled signing feature in MyConfig.h : #define MY_SIGNING_FEATURE ??



  • I think the gateway works now, i removed the separate 5-3.3v converter and used the arduino 3.3v.

    Now the sensor, i uploaden your sketch, but i get no init message?



  • Did you connect the gateway to a controller ? or to MYSController ? You get the gateway ready message ?

    For the sensor, you are using the sketch I upload ?
    Debug mode is enable in MyConfig.h ?

    You should have some debug messages in the console when connecting to the node.

    David.



  • The problem is on the uno everything seems to work fine.

    for the sensor i attached the RFM to a arduino pro mini 3.3v

    double checked the wiring, tried 2 different RFM's, tried 2 arduino pro mini's.

    uploaden the gateway to it and i get:

    0;0;3;0;9;gateway started, id=0, parent=0, distance=0
    

    but when i try to send something with the pro mini i get nothing back, while on the UNO I get:

    0;0;3;0;9;send: 0-0-10-10 s=1,c=1,t=2,pt=0,l=1,sg=0,st=fail:1
    

    So on the pro mini i get the init message, but no message when i try to send something.



  • RFM69 or RFM69HW ?

    For RFM69HW you have to modify MyTransportRFM69.hand enable HW model on line 33.
    Replace bool isRFM69HW=falseby bool isRFM69HW=true.

    Nothing on the serial output of the pro mini ??



  • Do you use 4.7uF capacitor ?



  • Yes i have the HW versions, so i replaced bool isRFM69HW=false by bool isRFM69HW=true

    added a capacitor.

    refreshed and still no feedback after sending.

    I get a serial output from the pro mini on start. but no more serial messages when i try to send a message.



  • Put your arduino pro debug message to see what happens.

    You used DHT22 ?



  • Its working now!

    Gateway doesn't work on the pro mini, but your sensor sketch is working 😄

    now the next thing, i get a lot of fails:

    but the gateway receives everything fine?

  • It's perhaps due to the signing feature ...

    May be you should disable it for the moment.

    Disable the feature in MyConfig.h and replace the gateway constructor by:

    MySensor gw(transport, hw /*, signer*/, RADIO_RX_LED_PIN, RADIO_TX_LED_PIN, RADIO_ERROR_LED_PIN);
    


  • Thanks! it working great now.

    Why does signing not work? Because of the controller? or is this handled by the gateway?

    Edit: Oh it was disabled on the gateway, now it works 🙂



  • Good news !!

    If you enable signing, don't forget to change MY_HMAC_KEYin MyConfig.h !

  • I'm trying to create my gateway with a arduino nano. Attached everything and on the serial output I get:

    0;0;3;0;9;gateway started, id=0, parent=0, distance=0
    0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete.
    

    But nothing happens when i try to send something.

    When I try to send something with a sensor it gets fail:

    send: 1-1-0-0 s=255,c=0,t=17,pt=0,l=5,sg=0,st=fail:1.5.1
    send: 1-1-0-0 s=255,c=3,t=6,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,st=fail:0
    sensor started, id=1, parent=0, distance=0
    send: 1-1-0-0 s=1,c=1,t=16,pt=2,l=2,sg=0,st=fail:1
    

    On a arduino uno it works fine. But the gateway won't work on a pro mini or a nano?



  • I tried the samples from the RFM69 library and they all work fine on any arduino.

    Maybe someone can upload their library and some RFM69 mysensors samples that are working?
