Problems with first sensors

[tekka]

@SGi Excellent, have fun 👍

[blebbens]

Think, I do not understand yet.
The motion sketch uses #define CHILD_ID 1.
Where do I have to insert #define MY_NODE_ID 1 ? Just into the skecht of the motion sensor ?

[Tore André Rosander]

@blebbens i think you can just put it over "define child id"

[nielsokker]

@Tore-André-Rosander said:

define child id"

I think so too.

These are probably just minor mistakes, changing from MySensors versions.

[blebbens]

So, I have to delete CHILD_ID und change it to MY_NODE_ID?

Okay, reaching home today, perhaps. Hope, this works.

[Tore André Rosander]

No, just add the define node id.

[nielsokker]

@blebbens

The old define, might become useless, but it wont be in the way either. It is your choice.

@blebbens use MY_NODE_ID to define the id of your node. the child id is for your sensors id, not the node id.

[Tore André Rosander]

@blebbens I just replaced my RPi Gateway (the direct connection to GPIO) with the Serial Gateway, and the Repeater node you are seeing must be your gateway. Before i connected any nodes i got the same repeater node listed as hardware as you did, so it is probably your node that is the problem.

I have exactly same error after loading new sketch (sensebender with BMP085). It was working fine for few days and suddenly it doesn't work. After verting my modification it doesn't work. Clear EEPROM doesn't solve the problem. RFM69W and static ID.
Gateway work fine with other sensors (sensebender without mods).

Sorry, I made a mistake when updating my sketch with (deleting bad zero to change 100 to 10 ...)
#define MY_RFM69_NETWORKID 100
#define MY_NODE_ID 100
Works fine now !

hi,

Was not at home for about 2 weeks now (driving home in 2 days), but AliExpress delivered 10 NRF2401 non-amplified without antenna. Is it still necessary to define low power and data rate of 1mbps?

#define MY_RF24_PA_LEVEL RF24_PA_LOW
#define MY_RF24_DATARATE RF24_1MBPS

Do I have to set the node ID still manually?

[SGi]

I thought my problem was dodgy Dupont cables but after more experimenting all issues have now gone by soldering a 80mm aerial to the radio :) like a magic fix....

[SGi]

Still cant get the stutus LED's working tho... hmmmm any suggestions? i have checked the polarity and connections are good to pins 4,5,6

[blebbens]

I am trying to set up a Serial Gateway using the arduino IDE, this time using a NRF24L01 (not amplified, with build-in-antenna).

The Sketch compiles without any error, but afterwards the IDE tells me an error occurred: error during uploading the Sketch.

This occurs on compiling mysensors sketches.

Never had this Problem before. Now I get this error on all WIN10-machines.

Any tips ?

[tekka]

@blebbens Did you manage to get your nodes running with a new set of RF24+ radios?

[blebbens]

No...it ... is... so... frustrating...

Arduino IDE works fine, but all things combined with mysensors are not working.

Tried to upload the ClearEepromConfig sketch to the serial gateway (nano, NRF24L01+). After compiling the sketch, the IDE is not able to upload the sketch to the nano (error on uploading the sketch). The same with other example mysensors sketches.

Tried this on 2 WIn10-PCs and 2 Macs.

[tekka]

@blebbens ...and uploading a sketch works with other non-MySensors sketches (i.e. blink example)? - did you select the right board in the boards manager?

[blebbens]

Yes, chose arduino nano.
Blank sketches work fine, uploading is no problem.

[tekka]

@blebbens This is weird - can you post the log from the IDE here for both cases (i.e. successful uploading and failing)?
