openHAB 2.0 binding



  • @Qu3Uk I asked a similar question about persistence on the OH2 forum and the response was you could set up a group and configure persistence for it. Then as the new items are dynamically found they just need to be added to the group without adding them to the config files. Possibly the same thing would work for rules.





  • @TimO I'm having difficulty with the mysensors binding and the zwave binding on OH2 startup. If both bindings are present, then mysensors gets loaded first (port=/dev/ttyS2) and then zwave tries to load (port=/dev/ttyUSB0) however it reports that it's serial port is not present. If I remove the mysensors binding jar file from addons and then start OH2, the zwave binding connects to its serial port correctly and works fine. I can then mv the mysensors binding back into addons and it will get loaded and bind correctly to it's serial port. I've tried to turn the logging up to debug and not got anything more from the bindings to tell me what's happening. any help is appreciated. thanks.

    @BenCranston : Thanks for the bug report! You're right I'm able to reproduce this error. The zwave and mysensors binding both use the same library (gnu.io) to access serial ports.



  • @TimO I'm beginning to think this might be platform specific to the gnu.io library and manifest on ARM architectures. I moved my OH2 installation over to my Mac and "Viola!" both services started working without an issue. Are you on an ARM platform as well? Initially I was running the MySensors gateway off of a GPIO serial port on my Pi. As part of working this I moved the gateway to an FTDI USB connection, so both devices were /dev/ttyUSB[01]. That didn't change the behavior and they still failed to co-exist from boot. I'm going to take a look at the gnu.io RXTX stuff and see if I can find a lead there... I'm not a java programmer, so this should be fun.



  • @TimO It looks like someone else ran into the same issue trying to do z-wave and enocean, both being serial connections. The discussion over on the community at openhab.org is here: https://community.openhab.org/t/serial-ports-issue/2516
    I wonder if that sheds any further lights on the issue. They did get a fix implemented in the EnOcean binding to play nice with the zwave binding.

    @BenCranston : Thanks for looking further into the problem. I was able to reproduce the problem on a x86 architecture.
    I've looked into the fix for insteon and I'm not sure if that helps, because I don't use the updateProperties() method that is fixed.

    I don't know zwave, so to be sure: I've changed:

    port=/dev/pts/1
    

    in zwave.cfg. Is that correct?
    (I've running a serial emulation on /dev/pts/1).



  • @TimO : Yes sir, that's the config step to tell the zwave binding where it's serial port is. The rest is done via files, or the habmin interface.



  • Hi @TimO

    I have a ESP8266 as Ethernet GW and a Nano with a S_HUM, S_TEMP and a S_LIGHT_LEVEL.
    I follow as described steps and the S_TEMP sensor is updated almost immediately, the S_HUM takes some minutes and the S_LIGHT_LEVEL is never updated.

    Can you take a look please?

    @BenCranston I finally found some time to further investigate this issue. Your guess according to the serial port issue was right. I've managed to "fix" the zwave binding using the code found while following the thread you mentioned.

    I've created a modified version of the zwave binding:
    org.openhab.binding.zwave-1.8.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
    org.openhab.binding.mysensors-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar
    (I've not changed the mysensors binding, just added it for reference)

    Could you please test it? The binding is throwing messages and trying to contact the zwave gateway/stick:

    Hello @Daniel-Oliveira!

    1. S_Temp looks good:
    2015-09-26 11:56:57 [DEBUG] [b.m.p.ip.MySensorsIpConnection:72   ] - 1;1;1;0;0;22.4
    2015-09-26 11:56:57 [INFO ] [smarthome.event.ItemStateEvent:43   ] - mysensors_temperature_4a73d1fa_temp updated to 22.4
    
    1. S_HUM looks good too:
    2015-09-26 11:56:57 [DEBUG] [b.m.p.ip.MySensorsIpConnection:72   ] - 1;0;1;0;1;65
    2015-09-26 11:56:57 [INFO ] [smarthome.event.ItemStateEvent:43   ] - mysensors_humidity_7d1da077_hum updated to 65
    

    I can't see a reason why it should not update correctly. Could be a bug in the OH2 runtime? Does this bug persist with a current runtime?

    1. S_LIGHT_LEVEL
    1;2;1;0;2;36
    

    With subtype 2 (V_STATUS) the binding is expecting 1 == ON or 2 == OFF.
    For light level the binding is expecting V_PERCENTAGE.

    So a message like this should work:

    1;2;1;0;3;36
    


  • Hi @TimO . Great work so far. I'd like to join in and extend your module with a lot more S_ and V_ types. Your Github repo code was updated 3 months ago. Do you want to push your commits so I can fork it?

    Also another question: Do I need something special or is the default OpenHAB 2 IDE as described on the OpenHAB2 page enough to start?


  • Hero Member

    Hi @SiLeX !

    I would really appreciate your help!
    My Repo is up to date, there are no open code changes. I've merged my Repo with the master/upstream, so OH2 too is up to date.

    The instructions here should work just fine, although I didn't set up my environment this way:
    https://github.com/wishmoooop/openhab2/blob/master/docs/sources/development/ide.md

    There is only one step needed to activate the MySensors binding, it is an addition to the step 8 in the instructions:

    1. Click on "Run"
    2. Click on "Run Configurations ..."
    3. Select "OpenHAB_Runtime" on the left
    4. Switch to "Plug-Ins" on the right
    5. Search for "org.openhab.binding.mysensors" and mark it
      (At this step I disable yahooweather and astro so they stop to annoy me with newly discovered locations) 😉

    If "strange" errors occure while testing code changes, delete the content of the "userdata" directory in "distribution/openhabhome".



  • @TimO said:

    Search for "org.openhab.binding.mysensors" and mark it

    Unfortunately I cannot find this in the list. I already added your fork as upstream master and pulled it. Anything else to change in there?snapshot1.png

    edit: solved by throwing away the openhab2 dev repo and cloning @TimO 's repo richt after installing the OpenHAB IDE. Alternatively you can create a new workspace and import/clone @TimO 's repo from there.

    Run a product stays empty, interesting files are in addons/binding/org.openhab.binding.mysensors/ESH-INF/thing/


  • Hero Member

    @powermta : What is your problem? 🙂



  • @TimO Sorry it took so long to test this. I've been flat on my back due to illness. Regardless, I tested it a bunch this morning and the changes to the zwave binding totally broke zwave functionality. The USB stick initializes but then the port gets "lost" and any attempts to interact with it fail. The change does allow for the MySensors binding to run. I removed the MySensors binding and just left your modified zwave binding in the addons folder to try to isolate the issue. It would appear that the modified zwave binding is broken. I'm going to pull the latest build from cloudbees and try your latest build of the MySensors binding and see what happens.


  • Hero Member

    For what it's worth, I'm using openhab 2 with a version from yesterday together with the latest my sensor binding I found here. Serial gateway and serial aeon stick zwave controller (latest binding from the build server). Absolutely no issues for me.



  • @kolaf I concur. I just refreshed everything to latest snapshots and holy smokes it all works. 🙂 I'm watching my zwave rules and MySensors controls all working together. At this point, I'm not sure what was broken with my install, but both bindings are now playing with each other very well without issue.



  • I can report continued success with the MySensors binding playing nice with the Z-Wave binding. 🙂 Today I'm working out some more rules and have a situation, where when a switch state is changed we send out command to another MySensor to change two childIDs on the same nodeID and another childID on a different nodeID. Two of the messages get out to gateway with the third not going out. Here's the debug:

    2015-11-11 09:49:00 [DEBUG] [.b.m.p.s.MySensorsSerialWriter:40   ] - Sending to MySensors: 10;1;1;0;2;1

    2015-11-11 09:49:00 [DEBUG] [.p.s.MySensorsSerialConnection:83   ] - 9;2;1;0;2;1
    

    It appears that all three messages are queued, but only the first two are actually sent. I switched the order around in the rule to send the messages in a different order and only the first two make it out to the nodes. Do I need to delay some after each command? Anyone else able to reproduce this? Thanks.

    the driving rule looks like this:

    rule "g01_Stair"
    when
            Item home_group_5a59cc99 changed
    then
      if (mysensors_light_508ef404_Light_10_1_status.state == ON) {
        // sendCommand(mysensors_light_508ef404_Light_9_2_status, ON)
        sendCommand(mysensors_light_508ef404_Light_9_4_status, ON)
      }
      else if (mysensors_light_508ef404_Light_10_1_status.state == OFF) {
        // sendCommand(mysensors_light_508ef404_Light_9_2_status, OFF)
        sendCommand(mysensors_light_508ef404_Light_9_4_status, OFF)
      }
    end
    


  • Hello Timo,
    Great Work !!😃

    Could You suggest a good Tutorial for understanding how to develope Bindings for HopenHab2?
    Anyway I will study your code too

    Regards

    Mirko Ugolini



  • I've been testing this on my side and I have to say that is excellent.

    Very well integrated with the 'Things' discovery model for OH2, etc.

    The only thing that is really stopping me to move forward is OH itself. I have several (and somehow disapointing) experiences that makes me feel that is still very beta. Not sure if anyone have any update on when the RTM is expected???

    Great work @TimO ! ! !


  • Hero Member

    @mirko-ugolini The documentation on how to develop bindings for OH2 is rather thin. 😞
    Starting point is here: https://github.com/openhab/openhab2/blob/master/docs/sources/development/ide.md

    From that point I've looked into the existing bindings and into the eclipse smarthome documentation, that does not work all the time, but the concepts match.

    If you would like to contribute to the MySensors binding I will gladly help you to find the entrance. 🙂

    @BenCranston I will have a look at it. Thanks for testing! The queue currently is rather basic (but should work). Maybe the data is written too fast to the serial output. I have a similar problem with OH 1.X and my rules, where I need to define a delay between commands.

    Something I plan to do, is adding the ACK functionality to the binding, so if no ACK is received the command is repeated for 5 times or so.


  • Hero Member

    @Dave-Dan said:

    Yeah, I see your point. As far as I know there currently is no real roadmap for OH2, which is rather annoying. On the other side there is a really healthy discussion running on how to maintain the code. There are so many developers with bindings, bugfixes and pull requests that want to contribute, that the OH organisation has to change its structure.

    At the moment the number of open pull requests for OH and OH2 is huge, so I hesitate to give the MySensors binding a shot.



  • @TimO said:

    +1 for the ack functionality. In my opinion this is a Transport-Layer functionality and should be built into the gateway (Arduino or whatever) itself. But the main developer doesn't like the idea because he is fearful that the serial buffer (or even an arduino queue system) will be unable queue enough messages while resends happen.

    On the other hand: we have plenty of RAM on our openhab hosts, so your idea seems like it will solve the problem completely, because we could even react on continous fails with putting the device offline (or whatever the openhab2 terms are for this) 😁


  • Hero Member

    @BenCranston : I'm pretty sure now, OH2 is sending the data too fast, because if I use terminal emulation instead of hardware all three commands are transmitted.

    Just curious: are you using an ethernet or serial gateway?


  • Hero Member

    I've added an option to influence the delay between messages send to gateway.

    Possible values are 1 to 1000 milliseconds.

  • Hero Member

    @TimO Would it be too much trouble for you to implement support for S_MULTIMETER? It seems that this is required for me to get the voltage reading from my battery driven sensors. Alternatively, is there anything you can do with the battery percentage that is sent using sendBatteryPercent? I don't know if OH2 has any notion of the sensors battery level?

    I notice you have support for the type S_VOLTAGE, but I cannot find that this is present in the master branch of MySensors?


  • Hero Member

    Also, from where can we download the latest versions of your binding?


  • Hero Member

    And finally, GREAT WORK 🙂


  • Hero Member

    @kolaf Thank you! 🙂

    I update the download in the first post here, whenever I upload a new version.

    Newest update 1 minute ago: Implementation of S_MULTIMETER!

    upload-fa96d617-5c91-4a7a-abc2-21c1a4457444

    Please let me know if this works for you.

    I'm planning to add a battery channel for every sensor. So if a sensor is added via UI, you are able to select/deselect a channel you don't need it. In *.items you are free to define the channel too.

    @kolaf: Interesting. I'm not able to reproduce the error. Did you clean the userdata directory? OH2 gets stuck, when the xml-Definition changes, because it uses some sort of cache.

    Because it is somewhat annoying to start from the scratch after deleting userdata, I define fixed things (like the gateway) in the *.things file.

    https://github.com/wishmoooop/openhab2/tree/master/addons/binding/org.openhab.binding.mysensors


  • Hero Member

    Thanks, it seems that that was the problem.



  • Hi everyone. Just to let you know OpenHAB 2.0.0 first BETA release is available. Unfortunatelly Tim0's binding is throwing some errors while OpenHAB tryes to install it.

  • kewl, thank 4 digging this up. I'm just evaluating openHab2 😄



  • Hi Timo,

    Regarding the errors in OH2beta, see this post for a possible solution.

    Some other questions:
    Is it possible to access sensors with different "V_types" for example V_VAR1 to a temperature sensor? I would like to send out numbers to my sensor nodes from rules.

    I was not able to get the battery level to work.
    my item looks like this:

    Number SHBat "Storehouse Node Battery Level [%f %%]"       (nSH,gBAT) { channel="mysensors:temperature:gateway:SHtemp_in:battery" }
    

    What is wrong?

    Thank you for a great work!

    /Tomas


  • Hero Member

    Hi Tomas!

    Thanks for the hint, I will take a closer look!

    @ofverstedt said:

    I would like to send out numbers to my sensor nodes from rules.

    This is currently not possible, but it will be. It is on my ToDo list. 🙂
    The current solution with the serial binding in OH 1.X is complicated, but leaves a lot of freedom for the user and I would like to preserve as much freedom as possible.

    I've implemented some new features a while ago, like resending of messages if no ACK is received. But the Repo is out of date. I will fix that.



  • Hi Tim0.
    Really nice work with this binding. Huge step forward into a official MySensors OpenHAB binding.

    It would be nice to have the repo updated so as to try the new features you have implemented.

    Have you had time to check why we are gewtting that error at OpenHAB 2 Beta while trying to install the binding?

    Let me know if there is any way in which I can help.
    Thanks, regards!

    Gonzalo.


  • Hero Member

    Hi @gonzalonal !

    I'm working on it. Due to the changes in the OH git repository my environment is all messed up. 😞



  • This kind of problem (as I've read online) in this release of OH seems to be not only related to this binding. One suggestion that I found is here: https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/issues/82 (last comment) or here: https://github.com/openhab/openhab-distro/issues/81

    I've tested it without success but I don't know if I've done it right. I've also try to build myself a rfxcom binding (this one use gnu.io) and it has the same issue

    hope this help

    EDIT: this work for me, run on OSGI console: feature:install openhab-transport-serial and restart OH

    Hi @andreacioni.

    You saved the day. It worked for me.
    Here the steps I did to make it work.

    1- Download latest snapshot from https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/ (Download offline version)
    2- Unzip the file.
    3- Run start_debug.sh
    4- In console write "feature:install openhab-runtime-compat1x"
    5- Ctrl-D to exit/shutdown OpenHAB
    6- Once exited, copy MySensors binding to addons folder.
    7- Start againg OpenHAB-
    8- Thats it. It should work

    Remember to copy your serial thing to things folder.
    Regards!
    Gonzalo


  • Hero Member

    @andreacioni: Absolultly amazing! Thanks!

    I don't understand why this helps though because the changes in the code I have to do have nothing to do with OH1 (compability).

    I hope to provide an adjusted version today or tomorrow along with a clean and working repository.

    Thanks for your patience! 🙂



  • @TimO I'think the OH1 compatibility is not the problem. It seems that OH2 beta1 have not installed transport feature and so it has no definition for the gno.io pakage, so I'think there's nothing to do on your code 😄

    PS tell me when the new repo is OK that I download it and try to add the baudrate config 😉 Thanks!!

    So, I would like to show you my current status. I've tested it against my mini MySensors environment and it looks good so far. Feel free to test.

    1. Download latest snapshot from cloudbees: https://openhab.ci.cloudbees.com/job/openHAB-Distribution/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/distributions/openhab-offline/target/openhab-offline-2.0.0-SNAPSHOT.zip

    2. Unzip file (into a directory like oh2).

    3. Download the current binding from Binding and place it in the addons directory under oh2.

    4. Configure addons, things, items and sitemap. Example?! addons.cfg, demo.things , demo.items, demo.sitemap

    5. Start "start_debug.sh", "start_debug.bat" ...

    6. In the karaf console enter: "feature:install openhab-transport-serial".

    7. MySensors Plugin "should" start. 😉

    8: "log:set debug" + "log:tail" to see debug output.

    Github and documentation will follow, please refer to the "old" Readme and the examples.



  • @TimO Hi Tim, for debugging outupt of the binding I need to write: log:set DEBUG org.openhab.binding.mysensors, without this I cannot see anything about binding logs



  • @andreacioni Hi andreacioni. Same issue with debug mode with me. Thanks for the tip!

    @TimO: V_STOP for Rollershutter sensors, is a MySensors binding limitation, or it is not implemented in OH2 yet?

    Another thing I've noticed is that every item added, despite being a regular switch or a rollershutter, is is being added as:

    Battery Level
    mysensors:cover:gateway:Cover_1_0:battery
    MySensors Battery Channel

    Is this the intended behavior for every node of my sensor, despite having or not a battery?

    Regards.
    Gonzalo.

    It is a limitation of OH2 and I don't understand the limitation. It is very confusing, because with the "RollerShutter" widget in OH2 I get three buttons: UP, DOWN and STOP. UP and down calls the handler in which I generate the MySensors message. STOP don't call the handler and therefore I can't do anything. I need to dig deeper.

    Battery Level
    mysensors:cover:gateway:Cover_1_0:battery
    MySensors Battery Channel

    Is this the intended behavior for every node of my sensor, despite having or not a battery?

    This is intended behavior. The battery status is send via an internal message and there is no presentation if a sensor has a battery or not.
    I've therefore added the battery channel to every item. In Paper UI you are able to simply disable the channel by clicking the blue circle next to the battery channel or in the configuration file you have to specify the channel, if you want to use it. If the battery channel is not defined for a thing it won't receive the battery status.

    For the future: maybe there is a way to hide the channel as long as there was no battery status received and display it only when used. But currently I don't see an easy way to implement that.

    Greetings!
    Tim



  • @TimO
    Great TimO. Thanks for clarifying this topic.

  • Hero Member

    @gonzalonal : I found a solution for V_STOP! It will be available soon.

    But more important: @andreacioni is doing some great work improving the stability and performance of the binding!!

    I just wanted to let you know, that the binding is currently under heavy development. 👍



  • @TimO
    Great news TimO. Really nice to hear that.
    Regarding STOP functionality for the binding, I have read somewhere that the supported commands by OpenHAB, for RollerShutter items, are Up, Down and StopMove. Have yoy tried something like this?

    Regards
    Gonzalo.

    Yeah, my problem till yesterday was, that I was not able to cast the given state to StopMoveType in case of Stop, while casting the state to UpDownType for Up and Down was no problem. 🙂

    I changed the way how the binding handles this type of message and it works now.



  • @TimO
    Can we clone the latest source code from this binding? I think that your github repository is outdated and I want to work this weekend with it, 'cause I would like to integrate the mysensors 2.0-beta "smartSleep" feature with your binding in my home sensors setup (ESP8266 Ethernet GW).

    Also, if there are any ISSUE y your TODO list in which I can help you, please tell me.

    Regards

    Thank you @TimO !
    This weekend I started migrating from my OH1.8 + mqtt GW setup to OH 2 beta + your binding. At the moment all is working fine, I spent some time learning about OH2 / Eclipse smartHome and watching your code, because I want to implement the smartSleep feature (https://github.com/mysensors/Arduino/pull/271) in the mysensors binding.

    My idea is: when the handler don't receive an ACK from a message, it store the message for a while, waiting a heartbeat from a node, and, if the binding has some message stored for this node, then send it again. I don't know if this is correct, or if you thinks there is a better solution.

    That sounds like a good plan. The binding already uses a queue where messages that should be send are buffered and you are able to specify how long a message is hold in the queue (when it is time to send again).

    I've already implemented a mechanism to request for an ACK message. This mechanism sends a message to the node, but holds this message in the queue and increments the number of retries (currently 4 retries, with different/longer delays). If the node responds with an ACK or the number of retries exceeds 4 the message is removed from queue. So you could indicate, with a configuration setting, that the node is an smartSleep node and thus only send the message once and if no ACK is received store the message for 10 minutes (for example) in the queue.

    Here is the implementation: https://github.com/tobof/openhab2-addons/blob/MySensors/addons/binding/org.openhab.binding.mysensors/src/main/java/org/openhab/binding/mysensors/protocol/MySensorsWriter.java

    BUT: The reader and the writer are working in different threads (asynchronus), so we have to sync the threads (the queue), if we receive an ACK and remove a message from the queue. I'm still struggling with that and that is the reason why the request for ACK should not be used at the moment and this will be a problem for smartSleep too.

    According to the ACK feature: if the binding don't receive an ACK after 4 timeouts it will revert the status of the thing to the last value. So if you for example try to switch on your light and the message is not acknowledged, the binding will revert the switch state to off. I've removed the code for this, because of the issue above, but will add it again in the future.



  • Hello everyone

    I'm testing MySensor Ethernet gateway with a relay code on it. My understanding that Gateway stores the current state of the relay (or GPIO port) in it's EPROM. Can the binding periodically check the state of the port or should I rely on OH persistence functionality? Please advise what is the right way to keep the states synced between the Gateway and OH.

    Thanks
    Andrew


  • Hero Member

    Hi Andrew!

    Good question. Polling is currently not supported by the binding itself, but what you could do is: send a message from the node to the gateway, when the node restarts (the moment after you read the EEPROM and set the output of the pin).

    Greetings
    Tim



  • @TimO , thanks for the idea.
    So I can probably take some code used for reporting button presses in the examples and use it in the 'message'.

    Thanks again
    Andrew



  • Hi Tim0.

    I have read all your instructions in the GitHub Repo.
    Is there any special reason why you suggest to add things in manual, text way, rather than with the PaperUI?

    I have done it with the PaperUI and manually restarting my nodes and everything works just fine.

    Let me know what you think.
    Regards



  • I wondered that but I'm quite new to OpenHab so did some looking in to how various things work..

    PaperUi uses something called MapDB which is basically a non-human readable configuration file. If you add "things" via PaperUi as far as I can tell you've still got to link the thing to an item for OpenHab to work with as far as I can tell..

    I opted to do everything manually like in the wiki, seems much simpler

    I get the impression PaperUi is still very new and not for production yet... its not compatible with sitemaps as they are waiting to implement a version of sitemaps in PaperUI or something.. I think it all boils down to the fact they want to keep V2 100% compatible with V1 configs and bindings etc so all the new stuff in V2 isn't quite ready yet...

    Anyway might have totally got the wrong impression but that's what I see as a new OpenHab user going straight to v2.

    On another note the work your doing TimO is awesome!


  • Hero Member

    @gonzalonal

    I totally agree with @Qu3Uk ! 🙂
    Both ways work and currently I like the configuration with the .items file more.

    In an early version of the PaperUI it was possible to change the status of items (switch lights on and off). Maybe something like this will return or habmin2 will fill the gap.


  • Hardware Contributor

    I need support for HVAC device, how much work is there to be done to get that included.

    I have made a thermostat controller for my Wirsbo floor project can be found under myprojects wirsbo uponor thermostat replacement


  • Hero Member

    @Denke What is it exactly what you need? Which types?
    How is the setpoint set (request/send)?

    Greetings
    Tim


  • Hardware Contributor

    @TimO
    Hi Tim
    I use gw.present(0, S_HVAC); to present the sensor to the controller

    I use the following messages to send information
    MyMessage msgTemp(0,V_TEMP); //temperature of thermostat
    MyMessage msgFlowState(0,V_HVAC_FLOW_STATE); //tells if the thermostat is active HeatOn or off
    MyMessage msgSetpointHeat(0,V_HVAC_SETPOINT_HEAT); //used for setting wanted temperature
    MyMessage msgKnobTemp(0,V_VAR1); //gives the wanted manual temperature set on the thermostat knob (used for fallback when home automation dont work
    MyMessage msgRunningMode(0,V_VAR2); //running mode internal or external internal = knob value used, external set by home automation
    MyMessage msgHystLow(0,V_VAR3); //used if hysteresis needs to be changed (low value)
    MyMessage msgHystHigh(0,V_VAR4); //used if hysteresis needs to be changed (high value)
    MyMessage msgUpdateTime(0,V_VAR5); //used to set system sampling/update time

    All of the above values are sent out from the thermostat at update sampling time interval.

    V_HVAC_SETPOINT_HEAT(msgSetpointHeat), V_VAR3(msgHystLow), V_VAR4(msgHystHigh), V_VAR5(msgUpdateTime) can be set from the controller to update the thermostat parameters



  • Hi TimO.

    I am trying to do a gw.request from one of my nodes that requires the value of a numeric item from OpenHAB.

    Have you tested this? I am unable to make it work.

    I have created a rule:

    rule "Heart Rate request"
    when
    	Item Heart_Rate received command
    then
    if (receivedCommand == "REQUEST")
    {
    	logInfo( "Heart Rate", "Heart rate request")
    	sendCommand(Heart_Rate, Heart_Rate.state);
    }
    end
    

    Please, let me know if I am doing it the wrong way.
    Regards.



  • I seem to be having some issues with the dimmer function and I'm not entirely sure if its OpenHab, the binding or MySensors... but I seem to be able to crash the gateway once OpenHab boots up... The node is basically running DimmerLED stretch

  • Hero Member

    I finally found some time to develop on the binding.

    A new version is available with the following changes:

    • On startup the binding will request I_VERSION from gateway to ensure its proper startup. Thanks @andreacioni for the PR!!

    • HVAC (V_VAR1, V_VAR2 ...) are now available. Thanks @Denke for the PR!!

    • The request for ACK feature is now available for testing. It works for light/status for me. If a message is NOT acknowledged by a node the binding retries to send the message five times. If no ACK is received after that the binding will try to revert the item to its old state. This only works, if a state is known (not NULL, for example at startup).

    Additionally I've tested the binding with multiple gateways (one EthernetGW, one SerialGW), works fine.



  • Hi @TimO.
    I have just installed the new release and I believe I've found a little bug. I am using Serial Gateway with version 1.5.3

    At boot up time, I am getting the followinf error:

    03:07:52.644 [ERROR] [s.internal.MySensorsBridgeConnection] - Cannot start reading/writing thread, probably sync message (I_VERSION) not received
    

    I have read that this new release, request the gateway for its version so as to prove proper start up.

    What I have found is that the binding might be asking for the Gateway version al little too soon.

    03:07:50.895 [DEBUG] [g.mysensors.protocol.MySensorsWriter] - Sending to MySensors: 0;0;3;0;2;
    03:07:50.912 [DEBUG] [g.mysensors.protocol.MySensorsReader] - 0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete.
    03:07:52.644 [ERROR] [s.internal.MySensorsBridgeConnection] - Cannot start reading/writing thread, probably sync message (I_VERSION) not received
    03:07:52.647 [DEBUG] [col.serial.MySensorsSerialConnection] - Shutting down serial connection!
    03:07:52.659 [DEBUG] [g.mysensors.protocol.MySensorsWriter] - Stopping Writer thread
    03:07:52.661 [WARN ] [g.mysensors.protocol.MySensorsWriter] - Writer thread interrupted
    03:07:52.666 [DEBUG] [g.mysensors.protocol.MySensorsReader] - Stopping Reader thread
    

    I have tested this manually and found that the gateway ONLY answers its version after its startup is finished and the message "0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete." is sent.

    When the binding starts, It makes (somehow) the gateway to reboot. So, the gateway runs its setup() method and when it's done, it send the message "0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete"

    Let me know if you can reproduce this error. Maybe it's just some problem with my setup, but with the previus version I was having no issues.

    Regards!



  • @gonzalonal I've implemented the check on startup. On serial gateway with the last version I'm not having any issue, so I would like to know: what hardware are you using? I think that probably is only a timing issue because, for exaple, Arduino UNO reset itself on opening connection and the message for request I_VERSION is sent immediately after connection is opened. I'll suggest you to try adding something like this:

    Thread.sleep(3000)
    

    After line 49 on MySensorsSerialConnection.java. Should become:

    serialConnection = new NRSerialPort(serialPort, baudRate);
            if (serialConnection.connect()) {
                logger.debug("Successfully connected to serial port.");
                Thread.sleep(3000); 
                mysConReader = new MySensorsSerialReader(serialConnection.getInputStream(), this);
                mysConWriter = new MySensorsSerialWriter(serialConnection.getOutputStream(), this, sendDelay);
    
                connected = startReaderWriterThread(mysConReader, mysConWriter);
            } else {
                logger.error("Can't connect to serial port. Wrong port?");
            }
    

    I can't do this test because I do not have an appropriate hardware, can you try the suggested code modification?

    Thanks!

    UPDATE: I've upload a temp build here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B11IarucpGdUdFJ2ZjVtZENsb2c/view?usp=sharing if you can't do the modification you can use this. Let me know!

    Let me tell you about my hardware configuration. I am running OH2 Beta2 in a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B with an Arduino Nano V3 working as Serial Gateway directly connected to one of Rpi USB ports.

    Please, let me know if you need me to some tests or maybe is just my config.
    Thanks, regards.



  • @gonzalonal I've done all of my test on a custom ATMEGA328p shield for BeagleBone Black, running OH2 (beta) so the environment is the same but I've not the reset circuit that gives the issue above. So now I'll push this little fix on the github repo, I think there's nothing to to in this sense. Thank for your time 🙂 !

    If you find some other strange behaviour also remember that github repo has it's own issue tracker available here: https://github.com/tobof/openhab2-addons/issues, it works very well and is the best place to keep track of every software-releated bug 👍

    Greetings!


  • Hero Member

    There is a new build of the jar available!

    Changes:

    • Added delay before checking the SerialGW (@andreacioni )
    • Requests are answered by the binding (The binding returns "0" if no value was set before)

    https://github.com/tobof/openhab2-addons/issues/8


  • Hero Member

    Are any of you having trouble with this binding together with other bindings that use serial ports? It looks as if the different bindings try to use the same serial port lock, so I get a conflict where things fail til initialize. Think it had something to do with the serial port library...


  • Hero Member

    @kolaf Is it zwave again? Last time I tried to fix the conflict I needed to change the zwave binding.


  • Hero Member

    It is both zwave and rfxcom. I played about it in the oh2 community some time ago, let me see if I can find a link.


  • Hero Member



  • Hello @TimO .

    Just tested the last build of the binding. Works great.
    I see you manage to answer the nodes requests without having to trigger a rule to respond.

    I though that wasn't possible due to the limitation of the API. Did they manage to solve this from the OH side?

    Does the binding itself keeps track of the items values, or does it querys OH (or its persistence service) for getting the right value?

    Thanks!
    Gonzalo


  • Hero Member

    Hi @gonzalonal !

    I'm glad it works, thanks for testing!
    Sadly the limitation of the API is still there, but for the implementation of the requestAck feature I needed to implement a memory and now reused this memory to answer requests.

    There is a really big BUT coming with this implementation: we currently can't use persistence out of the box. For this a rule is needed. After startup of OH we need to use "sendCommand(ITEMNAME, VALUE)", where VALUE Is the value stored in persistance. With that the memory of the binding is filled initially.
    Hopefully I will find an easier way in the future .



  • I get what you mean @TimO .

    Unfortunatelly, using the rule method you suggest would create a lot of traffic (depending on how many sensors you have) at boot up time. Maybe there are some sensors that wouldn't behave the intended way if receiving the "last value" repeteadly.

    An example. Lets supose I have an automatic gate, that everytime it receives a command, wether its a "1" or "0" it toggles its moving direction. Like the most common automatic gates remotes.

    Gate is closed.

    Press button > Gate opens
    Press button > (if gate moving) Gate stops
    Press button > (if gate open) Gate closes

    Now, suppose last command send to the gate made it close. Suddenly, OH restarts itself because of power failure or whatever. It runs the rule to load the memory of the binding, while at the same time it sends to the sensors the last status taken from the persistance service. This would make the gate to open without your notice.

    This may create dangerous escenarios.
    I hope you can understand what I mean.

    Maybe it would be a better idea to handle requests with rules in the way I suggested in the github issue, that is the same way as the OH-1 mysensors serial binding works.

    Let me know if I can help in any way.
    Regards.

    Gonzalo.


  • Hero Member

    @gonzalonal Good point! 😟

    If a request (or a message in general) is received there is no "commandReceived" in OH, so you can't trigger a rule based on a message received. So doing it with a rule is not possible.

    A workaround would be to use "postUpdate()" to update the value after restart. This isn't implemented yet, but is no big deal. This would be a workaround for the workaround, because we still need the rule. 😕

    In the OH1 binding the request is answered with the state of the item, as I would like to to do too.
    Line 277: https://github.com/bloft/openhab/blob/master/bundles/binding/org.openhab.binding.mysensors/src/main/java/org/openhab/binding/mysensors/internal/MySensorsBinding.java



  • Hi @TimO . Good we got in the same page.

    I think this topic needs some more thinking.

    I was reading OH wiki and found this about receivedCommand.

    
     Implicit Variables inside the Execution Block
    
    Besides the implicitly available variables for items and commands/states (see the script documentation), rules can have additional pre-defined variables, depending on their triggers:
    
    
    * Every rule that has at least one command event trigger, will have the variable 
    receivedCommand available, which can be used inside the execution block.
    
    * Every rule that has at least one status change event trigger, will have the variable
    previousState available, which can be used inside the execution block.
    

    https://github.com/openhab/openhab/wiki/Rules

    Maybe this is not available anymore, or at least on OH2.

    For now, I think it would be a better approach to use postUpdate at systemStart to populate the binding memory. With this, we'll avoid sending commands to the nodes.

    Regards!



  • Hi again @TimO .

    Just an idea.

    What do you think about solving this problematic in this way:

    We create a group whose members are all those items that later will populate the binding's memory. I have a group named mysqlpersisted where I put all the items whose data will be stored in my SQL DB. So I could use that group. For this example, let's call it "MemoryGroup"

    Then, we can create the following rule:

    rule "Populate MySensors binding memory"
    
    when 
    System started
    then
    
    (maybe add a delay to allow persistance services to load)
    
    MemoryGroup?.members.forEach[i |
            postUpdate(i.name, i.previousState(true))
    ]
    

    Using this method, memory would get populated everytime OH boots up, with data belonging to the persistance service that we use. And we use postUpdate, so no command is sent to the nodes.

    With this I think we solve both problems as data in the binding will be concurrent with the persistance service data.

    Let me know what you think about this.

    Regards!

    Hi @gonzalonal !

    I was thinking in the same direction and I have played a litte bit with different rules. I had no success in finding a rule that worked. Additionally I don't like the workaround. 😉

    A good solution would be, to trigger a rule, if a request is received, but there too I had no success till now.

    I'm still struggling with it ...



  • @TimO Do you think it would be hard to add MQTT support to the binding? I had a brief look to your code and it looks like the protocols are nicely isolated.


  • Hero Member

    I'm currently trying to migrate my production environment from OH1 to OH2. I'm now using two serial gateways.

    @kolaf : The problem you described occured to me too. In my case I use two serial gateways. I've added a little method that ensures that a connection to more than two serial ports via nrjavaserial is possible. It works within the OH2 binding. Could you test if it works with the RFXCOM binding you are using? A new jar is available on github. OH2 is currently using an old version of nrserialjava that has a bug. I don't know how to switch the version yet.

    @tomkxy : I will integrate MQTT in my OH2 Installation soon and will come back to your request after that.



  • The binding doesn't seem to handle the "requestTime" function yet. Time-aware sensors would be able to handle temporary OpenHAB outages by executing some scheduled actions autonomously, which I could use in the window cover controllers I'm developing.


  • Hero Member

    @TimO Thanks for the update. Unfortunately it did not seem to change anything for me, rfxcom still fails trying to use the wrong lock file. If it is helpful I can send you the log. Appreciate your input and effort.


  • Hero Member

    The weird thing is that it seems to work with an older version of OH2 (and an old version of your binding), but not with the more recent beta releases.


  • Hero Member

    @kolaf : My guess is, the implementation in the could be the problem. Please do a litte test: remove the mysensors.jar file from the addons folder. Start OH2. RFXCOM should start fine now. Copy the mysensors.jar in the addons folder. OH2 will try to load the binding. What is the result?

    I suppose this way both binding work fine together?!


  • Hero Member

    @TimO I tried this before, and removing the MySensors binding made the rfxcom binding work. However, this was not the case this time. I will try a bit later to also remove the zwave binding.

    It appears that I get these errors even if I remove all the offending bindings. I think I need to start with a completely clean installation and see how it goes. I will let you know.


  • Hero Member

    Success, I think.

    I started a brand-new installation of the latest OH2 snapshot, and sequentially added the rfxcom, z-wave, and mysensors bindings. After fiddling a bit with getting serial ports recognised by OH2 and getting the permissions correct, it seems to work. I still get some weird error messages, but apparently the library is able to work through its issues :-). An example of what I mean is included.

    Returns out that I am still seeing the problem sometimes. If I change the configuration so that the bindings are reloaded (especially the zwav binding) it fails to reconnect to the serial port. I found someone who had posted an updated serial binding which supposedly solved some related problem (I think), but I'm not sure. It does not appear to have had any effect on the problem.

    The modified version is available from one of the last posts here: https://github.com/openhab/openhab2-addons/issues/671


  • Hero Member

    I managed to get things working pretty well under Linux, but I have now switched to a Windows-based installation to see how that is.

    Currently I have all three bindings working at the same time using three different serial ports. This is finally allowed me to pay attention to what the mysensors binding is doing.

    The seems to be some kind of delay through the system for messages coming from the device. This is quite evident from the log included below. Device number three is a power sensor which transmits about once a minute. For some reason things are bunched together. I guess some of these could be Retransmissions, though. The sensor is located 4 m away from the gateway. Number 10 is a temperature sensor in the basement.

    For some reason I have had severe problems getting the sensor to talk to the Gateway today. It shouldn't be related to the binding, I know, but I'm loosing my mind trying to keep track of all the different factors here.

    @kolaf : I'm glad the bindings are now working together.

    The delay in the transmission is a bit strange. I've no idea where that could come from.
    I've ported my production environment to OH2 and this didn't occure to me yet. I've upgraded a lot of my sensors to 2.0-beta and therefore took a closer look at the debug output of the OH2 binding to check if the devices present themself correctly and send the messages. I'll will keep an eye on it!

    Currently I'm running OH2 with:

    • Astro1
    • Weather1
    • MySensors2
    • MySQL Persistence
    • Sonos2

    In the MySensors network I have a couple of Sensebender Micros, a shutter control with 12 SSR and two nodes to control LED lights plus selfmade DHT22 nodes connected to two gateways (one serial, one ethernet (iboard)).

    I'm glad it runs stable for days now, although it is obvious in some places that this is a beta release of OH2. There are icons missing and there are bugs in the basicui and the documentation could be much better.

  • Hi @Francois ,

    thanks for report. Seems that the you are using 2.0 version of MS Gateway. If you do not need it for particular task, try install the 1.5 version. I'll try to fix your problem as soon as possible!



  • @andreacioni Thanks for this all my sensor are running on version 2 so I don't know it my nodes will run on an 1.5 serial GW
