SerialGateway is rebooting on relay.



  • Hi.

    Maybe someone has an idea.

    My setup is: Node6 and Node7, and a SerialGateway.
    When all 3 devices are ON, I can fine transmit from Node6 to Node7, via the SerialGateway.
    On Node 6, I use the command: send(msg.setDestination(7).set(value==HIGH)

    It all works fine.... but if I turn off Node7, then the SerialGateway, is restarting/resetting each time it tryes to reach Node7 (!TSF:MSG:SEND,6.0.7.7,s=3,c=1,t=16.pt=1,1=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:1)

    How can I prevent the SerialGateway, from doing a reset, when it can't reach a Node, that it is trying to relay to ?

    Btw: I'm using the last 2.0.1-beta develop build, from last night.



  • Hmm. I can see, it at general problem, when sending a message from one Node to another Node (that is turned OFF), via a SerialGateway, that the SerialGateway is making a Reset/reinitialyzation (Gateway startup complete), upone tryning to relay/delivery the message to the Node, that now is turned OFF.

    Node(ID 6) -> SerialGateway -> Node(ID 7 and turned OFF).

    Using setDestination(7) on Node(ID 6).

    Error on the SerialGateway, just before it restarts (!TSF:MSG:SEND,6.0.7.7,s=3,c=1,t=16.pt=1,1=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=NACK:1)

    Do you have any capacitor mounted on the gateway radio?

    The radio will send a burst of messages (when no ack is received) which could result in power drop (resetting the arduino) if the radio isn't decoupled correctly.



  • @hek
    Yes. 100uF and a 10nF (parallel) on all Radio's.
    I see no problem, when I send from Node(ID 6) to the SerialGateway.
    And I see no problem when I send from Node(ID 6) via the SerialGateway to Node(ID 7).

    The SerialGateway reboot's, if I turn OFF Node(ID 7) and the SerialGateway can't send to it.


  • Admin

    @delinend Can you provide a full debug log of all involved nodes for both scenarios? This would help to investigate the issue further. Also, please indicate AVR board def version.



  • @tekka
    Sure.. AVR Boards version 1.6.14

    Btw. I have tryed to set all radio's to MIN power. But same result. If I turn ON Node(ID 7), everything works fine.


  • Admin

    @delinend Ok, could you also enable MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_RF24 in your GW, I need to see how far the message goes in the RF24 driver - I suspect a power issue.

    Hmm.. That is ode..
    If I enable the MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_RF24, the SerialGateway is NOT rebooting ?!?!

  • @tekka
    And yes... If I remove the MY_DEBUG, it do NOT reboot !?!

    So the SerialGateway reboot only, when I use the #define MY_DEBUG

    Strange 😞


  • Admin

    @delinend Yeah, and I assume if you downgrade your AVR board defs to 1.6.11 or .12, everything is fine?



  • @tekka
    Hmmm Strange. It work fine with 1.6.11 ?!?

    Why is there errors with 1.6.14 - 1.6.13 and 1.6.12 ?
