Sensebender with RFM69
-
Got my converter boards for RFM69 -> NRF24 footprint in from Dirty pcb's today, and it seems that the sensebender has accepted it's new friend..
However, the GW that I have set up, doesn't receive anything (they are within 5cm of each other). So I have to do some good old hardware debugging (on both sides)..

Would you care to share schematics?

Well i don't know wich RFM69 you use but i have here a few moteino's and also toy-ing with them i had similar problem no data exchange possible between the two moteino's. whatever i try no connection was builtup. i even unsolder a rfm69HW on the GW and replaced it.. it communicates??? So conclusion bad RFM69 Throw away.. and test further. After a few days again same problem. Now it was on the breadboard so replacing was easy. Same as before (replace and works).
Then i loaded up the moteino test program in the sensornode and the GW with the non working RFM69 .... Works like a charm??? switch back to Mysensors works again.. I Can't remeber anymore what i did but you have to look at the code n the utility folder the rfm69.cpp file in the initializer. when there is no encryption (NULL) the encryption string is not written.. so ones it's filled in you can't clear it. I suspect that the problem relies there..
