    This is because the sensor is still initialising and unable to complete as it is unable to find the gateway. It'll loop until it does find a gateway/parent, once it has it'll then go on to process your code.

    Have you set up a gateway already?

    I had this problem recently. Turned out to be a bad radio.

      Thanks for the tip. I do have RaspberryPi with nrf24l01+ and I have terminal open there with serial gateway running in foreground. The radio on raspi side seems to report it's address and info at the start. Only very rarely I see some read:* send: pairs there. Both radios have a 100uF capacitor in place, as I didn't have smaller.

      Perhaps I need to try with a new radio. All the parts are brand new, apart from the Raspi.

        BTW, this is the output on Raspi side, somehow it sees the nodeid 8:

          and now after while there are occational OKs:

          read: 8-8-255 s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0:

            Damned. I changed both of the radios, and the sensebender. No help. Still no connection forming. Is there some radio parameters I could try tweaking? Or am I so unlucky that all the radios are broken as new?

            I get lots of these:
            !TSM:FPAR:NO REPLY
            TSM:FPAR
            TSF:MSG:SEND,8-8-255-255,s=255,c=3,t
            =7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,ft=0,st=bc:

            !TSM:FPAR:NO REPLY
            TSM:FPAR
            TSF:MSG:SEND,8-8-255-255,s=255,c=3
            ,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,ft=0,st=bc:

            !TSM:FPAR:FAIL
            TSM:FAILURE
            TSM:FAILURE:PDT

            and on raspi side some of these:

            read: 8-8-255 s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0:
            send: 0-0-8-8 s=255,c=3,t=8,pt=1,l=1,st=ok:0

              What happens if you create a 2.0 serial gateway (you could use one of your sensebenders) and attach it to your raspberry?

                @hek I'll try that.

                  @hek to be honest, it's going to take some time, as I have yet no glue how I would attach it to my raspberry :)

                    Through the usb-port...

                      Thanks, and now that I had a second thought, I recalled I already wired another arduino once via serial ports without usb. That would do. But I would like to do it without extra arduino, so I'll try the raspi2 + mysensors hinted in the other hardware thread. It seems to work for some, I'll give it a shot.

                        Just FYI for someone googling this, it works immediately with Mysensors 2.0 with Raspi2 instead of Raspi1. The problem was I never realized the pinouts were not for the raspi with 26 pins but the raspis with 40 pins, like b+/2/3.
