Heartbeat error ?
-
Hi,
I have a relay node that don't have any sensors, and therefore don't have communication between the vera and the node. like this
So I have been playing with heartbeat and I cas see in serial log local on the node that it is transmitted.
BUT my node in VERA dont update the last update time : Is tyhis how is sopose to be or do I something wrong?
Here are my code :
/** * The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol * between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice. * The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each * repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the * network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes. * * Created by Henrik Ekblad <henrik.ekblad@mysensors.org> * Copyright (C) 2013-2015 Sensnology AB * Full contributor list: https://github.com/mysensors/Arduino/graphs/contributors * * Documentation: http://www.mysensors.org * Support Forum: http://forum.mysensors.org * * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or * modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License * version 2 as published by the Free Software Foundation. * ******************************* * * REVISION HISTORY * Version 1.0 - Henrik Ekblad * * DESCRIPTION * Example sketch showing how to control physical relays. * This example will remember relay state after power failure. * http://www.mysensors.org/build/relay */ // Enable debug prints to serial monitor #define MY_DEBUG // Enable and select radio type attached #define MY_RADIO_NRF24 //#define MY_RADIO_RFM69 // Enable repeater functionality for this node // #define MY_REPEATER_FEATURE #include <SPI.h> #include <MySensors.h> #define RELAY_1 3 // Arduino Digital I/O pin number for first relay (second on pin+1 etc) #define NUMBER_OF_RELAYS 2 // Total number of attached relays #define RELAY_ON 1 // GPIO value to write to turn on attached relay #define RELAY_OFF 0 // GPIO value to write to turn off attached relay long double last_heartbeat_time = millis(); long double HEARTBEAT_TIME = 120000; void before() { for (int sensor=1, pin=RELAY_1; sensor<=NUMBER_OF_RELAYS;sensor++, pin++) { // Then set relay pins in output mode pinMode(pin, OUTPUT); // Set relay to last known state (using eeprom storage) digitalWrite(pin, loadState(sensor)?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF); } } void setup() { } void presentation() { // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller sendSketchInfo("Relay", "1.0"); for (int sensor=1, pin=RELAY_1; sensor<=NUMBER_OF_RELAYS;sensor++, pin++) { // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices) present(sensor, S_LIGHT); } } void loop() { long double temp = (millis() - last_heartbeat_time); if (temp > HEARTBEAT_TIME) { // If it exceeds the heartbeat time then send a heartbeat sendHeartbeat(); last_heartbeat_time = millis(); #ifdef MY_DEBUG Serial.print("Sent heartbeat" ); Serial.println(temp) #endif } } void receive(const MyMessage &message) { // We only expect one type of message from controller.

According to the Controller compatibility list Vera does not yet support heartbeat -> https://www.mysensors.org/controller

@korttoma
I did not see that
Is there any plan for implementing this ?

You can just send the last state every HEARTBEAT_TIME... should have the same effect.
