    Hi BartE - thanks for your reply!
    I do not receive any error regarding invalid EEPROM - not while writing, not at boot time.
    My cards are shown in this format: D4 04 E2 E9
    I register a Master Card like this (and it works until reboot):
    MFRC522::Uid masterkey = { 4, {0xD4,0x04,0xE2,0xE9}, 0 };

      Cool stuff! You probably what some signing in there as well :) would be a shame if someone snooped the open command from your controller and decided to pay a visit.

      Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

        @SVLoneStar That should work, did you try the sketch shown in the topic?

        The function recallEeprom(); reads the EEPROM content and after closing the program mode this function storeEeprom();
        writes the EEPROM. Please add some debug info (Serial.print) and validate that these functions actually are called on

        • recallEeprom(); --> on start up
        • storeEeprom(); --> ending program mode.

          @Anticimex yes your right but when i wrote this sketch signing was not in the released branch.

            Nice work. I have yet to pick up an RFID reader to give that part of it a try, but I've modified it a little to have reed sensors for the 2 doors so that I can easily see if the door is open on my phone, and get notifications when the door opens at an unexpected time, like when the controller is set to vacation mode, or at times of night when we would not normally be coming and going.
            I'll be watching for someone to post up a signing version.

            Here's my 2 relay, 2 door sensor version.

            /*
             RFID Garagedoor opener by Bart Eversdijk
             Modified to add door sensors by Rod MacPherson
             
             This sketch is to open a Garage door with an mifare RIFD-tag 
              
              For an Arduino Nano v3
              Connection wiring :
                - nrf24l01+ as descibed on the MySensors website
                - MFRC522 reader/writer MOSI, MISO, SCK, 3.3V and GND as they are on the nrf24101+, but connect RST to pin D7 and connect SDA(SS) to pin D8 
                - LED with 470ohm resistor between GND and pin A3 
                - push button between GND and pin D5
                - 5v relays coil between GND and  pin D4 -> switch pins of the relays should be connected in parallel with your garage door push button. 
                - second relay for second door on pin D3
                
              Features:
              This project can record up to 18 RFID-"tags"
              These card IDs are stored in to EEPROM by keeping them next to the RFID reader when the system in program mode. (Slow blinking LED) When a card is accepted as new card the LED will blink fast for a short time.
              To keep the master-tags (choose your own) next to the RFID reader when pressing the push button. To clear all cards (except the master card) press the push button in program mode for 6 seconds. The LED will now fast blink for a couple of seconds.
              
              Your garage your can be opened by keep a registered RFID tag next to the reader or by clicking the open icon on lock node presented by this plugin.
              By by-passing the alarm node presented by this plug in the RFID will be temporarily disabled.
              When an incorrect (not registered) RFID tag is scanned the alarm is triggered to detect illegal scan attempts

              Hi @BartE - thanks for putting this together! It has been very helpful.

              I am working on a project with two wireless MFRC522 modules and RFID Reader. I want to be able to read PICC cards with the RFID reader and send it the UID between the modules. So essentially a more bare version of the code you have written with the garage door opening code. I was wondering if you could help me out in simplifying the code to just reading the UID off the PICC cards and outputting that date between the RCF522 modules.

              Thanks in advance.

                  @BartE thanks for getting back to me. I've looked through the examples on the MFRC522 library. I think the main thing I'm struggling with is setting up and initializing the N24L01 module and the RFID on the same arduino uno. My plan is to have one N24L01 and RFID on one arduino module, and a second N24L01 on a second arduino. I want the RFID to read the UID off of PICC cards and be able to wirelessly transmit the UID between the N24L01 modules. I think it's simpler than the code you have written here, but I'm struggling to simplify the code you have to only what I need. Could you possibly walk through what each function in your program is used for? Thanks in advance.

                    @codergirl56 Oke i will give it a try:

                    Basic IO pin set up

                    void setup() {
                            Serial.begin(BAUD);     // Initialize serial communications with the PC
                            pinMode(GARAGEPIN, OUTPUT);     // Initialise in/output ports
                            pinMode(SECONDRELAY, OUTPUT);     // Initialise in/output ports
                    

                    This part initializes the SPI I/O pins used by the RFID reader so it release the SPI bus for thr NFR radio

                            // Make sure MFRC will be disabled on the SPI bus
                            pinMode(RST_PIN, OUTPUT);     
                            digitalWrite(RST_PIN, LOW);
                            pinMode(SS_PIN, OUTPUT);     
                            digitalWrite(SS_PIN, LOW);
                    

                    Init LED and button I/O-pin

                            pinMode(LED_PIN, OUTPUT);
                            digitalWrite(LED_PIN, LOW);
                            // Setup the button
                            pinMode(SWITCH_PIN, INPUT_PULLUP);
                    
                            // After setting up the button, setup debouncer
                            debouncer.attach(SWITCH_PIN);
                            debouncer.interval(5);
                    

                    Init radion module

                            // Init mysensors library
                            gw.begin(incomingMessage, 5);
                            gw.sendSketchInfo("RFID Garage", "1.2"); delay(RF_INIT_DELAY);
                            
                            // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices)
                            gw.present(CHILD_ID_LOCK, S_LOCK);      delay(RF_INIT_DELAY);
                            gw.present(CHILD_ID_LOCK2, S_LOCK);      delay(RF_INIT_DELAY);
                            gw.present(CHILD_ID_ALARM, S_MOTION);   delay(RF_INIT_DELAY);
                    

                    Read eeprom settings

                            recallEeprom();
                    

                    nit SPI bus for MFRC RFID sensor

                            SPI.begin();            // Init SPI bus
                            mfrc522.PCD_Init();     // Init MFRC522
                            ShowReaderDetails();            // Show details of PCD - MFRC522 Card Reader details
                    
                            gw.send(lockArmMsg.set(armed));
                            Serial.println(F("Init done..."));
                    }

                            timer++;
                            delay(HEARTBEAT);
                            gw.process();
                            debouncer.update();
                    
                            // Get the update value
                            int switchValue = debouncer.read();

                      @SVLoneStar That should work, did you try the sketch shown in the topic?

                      The function recallEeprom(); reads the EEPROM content and after closing the program mode this function storeEeprom();
                      writes the EEPROM. Please add some debug info (Serial.print) and validate that these functions actually are called on

                      • recallEeprom(); --> on start up
                      • storeEeprom(); --> ending program mode.

                      @BartE

                      Hi BartE, I have the same issue regarding tags lost after power off. I run the debug instruction using Serial print as you mentioned. I found out that the storeEeprom line did not run after closing the program mode. I think this is why the tags are lost after power cycle.

                        I've just solved the issue regarding tags lost after power off.

                        Simply add the line "StoreEeprom();" after the program mode function

                          if (programmode && ((timer % (ONE_SEC / HEARTBEAT)) == 0 ))  {
                                    ledon = !ledon;
                                    digitalWrite(LED_PIN, ledon);
                                    programTimer++;
                        
                                    // Stop program mode after 20 sec inactivity
                                    if (programTimer > PROG_WAIT)  {
                                       programmode = false;
                                       digitalWrite(LED_PIN, false);
                                       Serial.println(F("Program expired"));  
                        
                                       storeEeprom();
                                       Serial.println(F("Store Card to EEPROM"));  ```

                          @Chakkie sorry for the slow response (i was on a pre summer holiday)

                          Thx for analyzing this report. The fix you did made is not what i meant with program expired.

                          The idea is that you start program mode by pressing the program button and holding the master card.
                          And now one can add one or more new RFID cards and when your oke press the program button for a short period to END the program mode and store the new cards.

                          If you wait too long the program mode will expire and the new cards are NOT stored. Off course you can change this behavior by adding this line as you suggested.

                            hello to all guys, I noticed some problems, if the power goes away there is a flaw in the system. I modified the source as needed to me, now you turn the sensor on domoticz when you turn on and off when you turn off. I modified the project to create an alarm homemade I configured via lua script the motion sensors. I mounted on the bell so as to turn on and off when I go out or within the home. thank you all

                              I have tested this code http://etabetastudio.blogspot.it/2016/07/tutorial-lettore-rfid-rc522-arduino-idea.html to test RFID RC-522 with Arduino 2009 and all is ok, also to registred RFID card on EEPROM...
                              I hope to help uo...bye

                                Dear All,

                                I'm a newbie and I found in MySensors website the project for RFID Lock Sensors that use PN532 RFID Reader, but as I already have with me a RC-522 RFID reader, searching on the forum I found this post that I thinked it will suit my case.

                                I assembled the various hardware parts as described on first post, but when I copied the sketch code in my arduino IDE, I'm not able to get it work.

                                I get some error message that is not so clear for me.

                                It's seems the sketch is for a previous version of MySensors Library or Arduino IDE, but I'm not sure of this.

                                As I use Arduino IDE 1.6.12 that has included MySensors Library 2.0.0, is the Sketch you included in the first post already valid for that setup ?

                                It' will be possible to have a valid sketch working with new setup or eventually to know how to proceed to make the actual one working ?

                                Thank you in advance for your attention.

                                  It was written prior to the MySensors 2.0 update.

                                  You can convert pre- 2.0 sketches by following the instructions on https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/4276/converting-a-sketch-from-1-5-x-to-2-0-x

                                  If you need a hand just post here with your question, I'll try to help, but it's really not too bad once you get started. I'm in the process of converting all of my code to 2.0 as well.

                                    Dear Rod, thank you for the suggestion you gave me.
                                    Following the instruction you indicated me, I was able to make the sketch working with new MySensors 2.0 library.

                                    Considering that I'm not a programmer, it was quite easy to make the sketch working.

                                    Thank you again for your suggestion and off course thank you to BartE for the good original work he did.

                                    If someone need new sketch working with library 2.0, feel free to ask me.
