     * 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

    Now I want to send Message from gateway to switch the relay pin 3 of RelayActuator , please guide me I am new to mysensor. How can i send a message from gateway to RelayActuator node.


  • Admin

    Use the development branch (at least on gateway).

    // Prepare message
    MyMessage msg(1, V_STATUS);
    msg.setDestination(105);
    
    //.... and where you want to send add... 
    
    send(msg.set(1));  // Turn on
    send(msg.set(0));  // Turn off
    
    
    


  • And if we want to send message through Serial Monitor


  • Admin

    Then you just have to read the instructions here:
    http://www.mysensors.org/download/serial_api_15



  • void incomingMessage(const MyMessage &message) {
      // We only expect one type of message from controller. But we better check anyway.
      if (message.type==V_LIGHT) {
         // Change relay state
         digitalWrite(message.sensor-1+RELAY_1, message.getBool()?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF);
         // Store state in eeprom
         gw.saveState(message.sensor, message.getBool());
         // Write some debug info
         Serial.print("Incoming change for sensor:");
         Serial.print(message.sensor);
         Serial.print(", New status: ");
         Serial.println(message.getBool());
       } 
    

    The incomingMessage function in RelayActuator is checking message type as V_LIGHT
    how can we send this message from serial monitor of SerialGateway


  • Admin

    V_LIGHT (alias for V_STATUS) has sub-typ value 2 if you look in the table.



  • what does this function does
    msg.setDestination(105);


  • Admin

    Your node seems to have id 105 (telling from serial log). So in order to send message from the gateway itself you have to set that destination of the message.

    If you send through the serial interface you also need to specify the correct node id of course.



  • Thanks that really worked for me.
