[SOLVED ... partially] Ethernet gateway without radio don't present local sensors to domoticz

[TheoL]

@tonin I'm following this with much curiosity. My first guess was that it can't work. Because the gateway shouldn't startup, in my mind at will stop the bootup sequence because there's it can't initialize the radio. At least that's what I expected.

Mystery solved ....

I was using client mode gateway because in server mode my arduino mega reset every time that send an ethernet packet. In client mode as I say, domoticz connect to the arduino but there is no traffic from arduino to RPI domoticz presenting my relays. I read that client mode is buggy at this time, so I try to get server mode without the resets.

To avoid resets in my chinese arduino mega 2560 & chinese w5100 I need to downgrade de AVR library from 1.6.13 to 1.6.11. So all works Ok with my to gateways (usb & ethernet() connected to my RPI domoticz controller.

@TheoL No, in mysensors 2.0 you can have gateways with local sensors or relays without radio only commenting all radio #define's

@tonin Great to hear you've solved it.

Hi. I have the same problem with my serialgateway. its usb conected to VERA 3
(ui7).
There are no inclusion on vera. Normally i use the software arduino gateway start button on vera to include ,and reset the sensor be detected. Now my buzzer(relay based sketch) it's on gateway.
What i do now for vera include my buzzer???? :disappointed:

i even dont know if the scketch work but i need inclusion first...

**(...)**


// Set inclusion mode duration (in seconds)
#define MY_INCLUSION_MODE_DURATION 60 
// Digital pin used for inclusion mode button
#define MY_INCLUSION_MODE_BUTTON_PIN  3 


#include <SPI.h>
#include <MySensors.h>  

#define CHILD_ID 5


void setup() {
  
}

void presentation()  
{   
  // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller
  sendSketchInfo("BUZZER", "1.0");

 
    // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices)
    present(CHILD_ID,S_DOOR);
  }



void loop() 
{
  
}

void receive(const MyMessage &message) {
  // We only expect one type of message from controller. But we better check anyway.
  if (message.type==V_TRIPPED) 
{
    tone(2, 2500, 1000) ;
        
   } 
}

Try to call the presentation function in setup. I remembered that i needed to do it on usb gateway, the ethernet gateway has a patched code to call presentation after connection to the controller.

[Tmaster]

Not worked. I think maybe i need an include button or some function that preset that sensor after gateway was already running and waiting for messages..I don't now. This new feature on gateway was one of my requests but still a mistery for me how it work :P

works ok for me. As you can see I define the relays in an structure to do it configurable. The only trick for me is to call the presentation function in the setup function. In the ethernet gateway it isn't needed.

A note for the structure sRELE. yo can see the pin, description and the state of the pin that mean ON or OFF. It's so because my relay boards have an inverse logic. When the pin is in low state, the relay is on. This relay boards are opto coupled and have an isolated circuit between arduino pins and relays, this is the reason for that.

The sample code also have some lines to read temperature from a dallas sensor.

I hope that this help you.

Viva la espanã:p :palm_tree: . gracias.

Tankyou.I will try tomorow. :+1:

hi. i just add presentation function on setup but still the same. No sign of the sensor on vera. maybe yor sketch its sending back another call in some other line ... i can't make it work.

changes:

void setup() {
  presentation();
}

void presentation()  
{   
  // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller
  sendSketchInfo("BUZZER", "1.0");

 
    // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices)
    present(CHILD_ID,S_DOOR);
  }

void loop() 
{
  
}

void receive(const MyMessage &message) {
  // We only expect one type of message from controller. But we better check anyway.
  if (message.type==V_TRIPPED
  ) {
    tone(2, 2500, 1000) ;
     // Change relay state
     //digitalWrite(message.sensor-1+RELAY_1, message.getBool()?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF);
     // Store state in eeprom
     //saveState(message.sensor, message.getBool());
     // Write some debug info
     Serial.print("Incoming change for sensor:");
     Serial.print(message.sensor);
     Serial.print(", New status: ");
     Serial.println(message.getBool());
   } 
}

This was fixed in development back in august but has not yet made it to master branch (which you might be using if you downloaded through library manager).

https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors/pull/532

[Tmaster]

So i need install the devbranch. . i will try...
thankyou
