pimatic-mysensors controller plugin

@fahrettine How does your sketch look? Does pimatic receive anything in de log?

[fahrettine]

Hi,
Thanks for the answer.
1-I installed Pimatic.
2-I installed Serial Gateway on the Arduino Nano.
3-I installed the Light sketch from MySensors on the Nano.

Pimatic logs look like below. It seems it doesnt receive any signal.
I think there is someting wrong with the USB port...
Are my USB port settings coreect?
You can see MySensors plugin settings above.

 }

You may want to double check that config.
It should be more like:

 {
   "plugin": "mysensors",
   "driver": "serialport",
   "protocols": "1.5.1",
   "startingNodeId": 1,
   "driverOptions": {
     "serialDevice": "/dev/ttyUSB0",
     "baudrate": 115200
   }
 }

if, ttyUSB0 is your connected arduino nano.

I plugged the controller and light sensor on my pc.
The controller receives and the sensor transmits signals.
So, the hardware is OK.
I changed the USB setting as "serialDevice": "/dev/ttyUSB0"
But still no signal.
Because I am new on RPi I cant set the USB corectly.
My USB settings (lsusb -t) are like below:
What is my USB port? USB0 or USB1 or other else?

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ lsusb -t
/: Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=dwc_otg/1p, 480M
|__ Port 1: Dev 2, If 0, Class=Hub, Driver=hub/5p, 480M
|__ Port 1: Dev 3, If 0, Class=Vendor Specific Class, Driver=smsc95xx, 480M
|__ Port 2: Dev 4, If 0, Class=Wireless, Driver=btusb, 12M

dmesg | grep tty

Will give you an output like:
ch341-uart converter now attached to ttyUSBXX

Oitzu thank you very much.
I solved the problem.
It was the nodeID. I set the nodeID to on the sketch to 15 and the problem solved.
Thanks for your help...

Hi everyone,
I installed Pimatic. It works fine...
I installed light sensor code from MySensor: http://www.mysensors.org/build/light
Light sensor works fine...
After that I intalled the Relay code: http://www.mysensors.org/build/relay
The relay doesnt work!!! Any idea for the problem???
When I turn the buton On/Off I can see the sending messages on debug.
Thanks!!!
Below are my Pimatic Config codes and debug messages:

{
  "id": "Switch",
  "name": "Switch",
  "class": "MySensorsSwitch",
  "nodeid": 10,
  "sensorid": 1
}

check whether you received any message ( serialport output ) on relay sensor node.

[rollercontainer]

I've seen the "protocol" line. Is it suitable for 2.0.0beta sketches ?

[Sweebee]

@rollercontainer the plug-in works fine with 2.0. You dont have to change the protocol value in the plug-in.

[Redferne]

Is there any development of this plugin?

[ricardot]

@Dheeraj,

Do you plan to continue to develop this plugin? I will very pleased to see a mysensors button. Thank you!

I second this. And also see if we can lose the dependency on serialport 2.0.6 so that we can use Node.js > 4.9.1
