Init fail
-
Hi
I have been playing with mysensors for a while but now when trying to start it up again after a couple of month of paus.
I´m getting this error: 0;0;3;0;9;radio init fail when I´m using the following.
Arduino Nano
NRF24L01+
Arduino 1.6.8
Mysensors 1.5
SerialGateway sketchI have tried to using another NRF chip but same result.
I have been using the same hardware before to build a gateway

@pettib Did you check the wires and added a 4.7uF capacitor? Init fail is saying as much as, I can't communicate with the radio. Which is either in the wiring or in the power.
Good luck!
-
Yes, The wires is correct and i have the 4.7uF capacitor connected.
I have homemade card with everything on it.
It the same i used before.
The only thing that have been changed is the version of Arduino IDE and Mysensors 1.5.

Pretty much as @TheoL said:
Radio init fail means:
- Not wired correctly
- Not powered correctly
- Not a nrf24 with +
Some reading regarding + and not + Nrf modules.

http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/1664/which-are-the-best-nrf24l01-modules/2I would trippelcheck my wiring, redo the wiring and try another power source.

Also check ce and csn pin configuration correspondence to your wiring.
