nRf24L01+ connection quality meter

drock1985

Thanks @awi for this, might have to build one myself to test a potential bad batch of radios i have.

Do you need the LCD for this or is the data also print in serial?

Thanks,

AWI

@drock1985 It will print the data on serial but not very well formatted. You don't need the LCD but it is easy to carry around the house. (a laptop too :smiley: but be aware of disturbances coming from the laptop i.e. Wifi ) I thought off blinking led's also. You can easily change the sketch, there is not much to it..

AWI

@Oitzu which versions do you relate to? I also have some with ceramic antenna (smd connection)

@AWI

Kijken je buren niet gek op wanneer je met je meter rondloopt? :wink:

@boozz my neighbors ask me every two weeks what I am doing and what all those strange looking things in my garden and on my roof are... :flushed:

boozz

@AWI

And when you start explaining they look somewhat odd don't they?

mrc-core

I'm having a problem in this part off the code:
"present(counterChild, S_DIMMER, "Quality counter " NODE_TXT) ; // counter uses percentage from dimmer value"

I'm getting this error:
"exit status 1
'present' was not declared in this scope"

How can i fix this ?

mfalkvidd

@mrc-core sounds like you are using the stable (1.5.x) version of MySensors. This sketch requires the development version which is available on github

mrc-core

Thanks for the quick reply.
i'm going to change the versions :)

Can this be extended to also measure NRF24l01 standby current? Maybe some "fake" modules have a high current consumption in stadnby mode, this could drain batteries quickly when used in battery operated devices

cjrpriest

Hi @AWI, could you kindly post your updated version of the sketch that has the parent and destination node numbers on the display?

AWI

Thanks very much @AWI 👍

@AWI Strange, with the latest sketch I get

nrf-quality-meter.ino:88:34: error: invalid conversion from 'int' to 't_backlighPol' [-fpermissive]
In file included from nrf-quality-meter.ino:45:0:

invalid conversion from 'int' to 't_backlighPol' [-fpermissive]

compiling...

It works using the other line...

// ***** LCD
//LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x27, 2, 1, 0, 4, 5, 6, 7, 3, POSITIVE);  // Set the LCD I2C address
LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x27, 16, 2);  // Set the LCD I2C address

AWI

@karl261 probably I am using another library for the display. I got it from the Arduino library manager.

Nicklas Starkel

@AWI what is the board between the nano and the radio?
Something available via aliexpress?

I really do not need this as I live in a small flat.. but I NEED THIS! :laughing:

AWI

@Nicklas-Starkel you can find it in the MySensors shop It is a nrf24l01+ socket adapter board. It guarantees a stable supply and includes the famous "radio capacitor"

siod

Hi @AWI,

thanks for the code and the project! ~~Unfortunately my biggest problem is to get my LCD working. It does not do anything with your code, other testcode to test the display is working fine. I am using this line and it should work fine:

LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x27, 2, 1, 0, 4, 5, 6, 7, 3, POSITIVE);  // Set the LCD I2C address

Any idea what else I could check? I am using arduino IDE 1.6.10

edit: getting this in the serial monitor of the device:

edit2:
Think I got it now, seems like my gateway wasn´t responding or whatever, now it seems to work...

Edit3:

I got 1 fail and 5000 miss 60%...
Now what does this mean??

Edit4:

I think I need some help: Most of the time I get this on my gw´s Serial Monitor:

After some reboots of the quality meter and I guess with a lot of luck it starts working occasionally

This is from the serial monitor of the quality meter:

TSP:MSG:READ 0-0-0 s=0,c=0,t=0,pt=0,l=0,sg=0:
!TSP:MSG:PVER mismatch
!TSM:FPAR:FAIL

I already added a 47u Cap and added those lines to the code:

#define MY_PARENT_NODE_ID 0                         // fixed parent to controller when 0 (else comment out = AUTO)
#define MY_PARENT_NODE_IS_STATIC

no luck at all...

NickBuilder

Great tool for a mysensors builder @AWI! I also want to sort out the good radios from the bad, I have enough trouble as it is trying to troubleshoot my questionable sensors.

I got around to building a quality meter for myself, although without the adapter board and with some additional differences. But I really don't understand the output, the fail and miss percentage is almost always 100 % for most of my radios. Am I missing something? Perhaps I should change some addresses to static ones? I thought that perhaps I had to define a corresponding item in Openhab in order for the packages to be acknowledged but this doesn't change the outcome.

Here's the serial output from the "quality meter":

Also, the meter in action generating the output above can be seen here: LINK
After some time, >10 min, the fail percentage is 100 % and the miss percentage around 85 %. Not impressive if interpreted correctly. Could someone give me some pointers to what the problem is? I don't talk "mysensors protocol".

Sorry @siod, I don't think I can help you. You seem to get a lot more messages through though.

AWI

@NickBuilder you seem to have a pretty bad connection (hardware related) . The meter has to be built with a reliable power source and connections. I can't see from the movie how your radio is powered. The reason for using the adapter plate is that it includes a separate ldo and capacitors.
