Having trouble getting 2.0.1-beta running on Raspberry Pi2 as gateway and controller
-
I think I've read every topic on this so far and I must have tried every combination.... and I'm stuck, so I'm hoping someone can see my mistake and help me get this sorted
Here is how I setup MySensors on my Raspberry Pi 2 - I followed the guide to install the NRF24L01+ PA/LNA radio with 4.7µ decoupling (and it previously worked on version 1.4 of mysensors)
Here is the contents of my mysGateway.cpp
#include <iostream> #include <cstdio> #include <unistd.h> #define MY_LINUX_CONFIG_FILE "/etc/mysensors.dat" #define MY_GATEWAY_MAX_CLIENTS 20 #define MY_IS_SERIAL_PTY #define MY_LINUX_SERIAL_PTY "/dev/ttyMySensorsGateway" #define MY_LINUX_SERIAL_GROUPNAME "tty" #include <MySensors.h> void setup() {} void presentation() {} void loop() {}Here is how I make and then monitor it
./configure --my-gateway=serial --my-rf24-pa-level=RF24_PA_LOW sudo make all sudo make install sudo ./examples_linux/mysGateway -dHere is my Arduino Node code - It's a simple Uno with a DHT sensor and an NRF24L01+ radio with 4.7µ decoupling
#define MY_DEBUG #define MY_RADIO_NRF24 #define MY_NODE_ID 5 #define MY_PARENT_NODE_ID 0 #include <SPI.h> #include <MySensors.h> #include <DHT.h> #define CHILD_ID_HUM 0 #define CHILD_ID_TEMP 1 #define HUMIDITY_SENSOR_DIGITAL_PIN 5 DHT dht; float lastTemp; float lastHum; boolean metric = true; MyMessage msgHum(CHILD_ID_HUM, V_HUM); MyMessage msgTemp(CHILD_ID_TEMP, V_TEMP); unsigned long pMillis_DHT = 0; long sCheck_DHT = 10000; bool requestACK = false; void setup(){ dht.setup(HUMIDITY_SENSOR_DIGITAL_PIN); metric = getConfig().isMetric; } void presentation(){ // Send the Sketch Version Information to the Gateway sendSketchInfo("Just Temperature and Humidity", "0.1"); // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices) present(CHILD_ID_HUM, S_HUM, "DHT22 Humidity", requestACK); present(CHILD_ID_TEMP, S_TEMP, "DHT22 Temperature", requestACK); } void loop(){ unsigned long currentMillis = millis(); // Check Temp and Humidity if (currentMillis - pMillis_DHT >= sCheck_DHT){ pMillis_DHT = currentMillis; float temperature = dht.getTemperature(); if (isnan(temperature)) { Serial.println("Failed reading temperature from DHT"); } else if (temperature != lastTemp) { lastTemp = temperature; if (!metric) { temperature = dht.toFahrenheit(temperature); } send(msgTemp.set(temperature, 1)); #ifdef MY_DEBUG Serial.print("T: "); Serial.println(temperature); #endif } // Fetch humidity from DHT sensor float humidity = dht.getHumidity(); if (isnan(humidity)) { Serial.println("Failed reading humidity from DHT"); } else if (humidity != lastHum) { lastHum = humidity; send(msgHum.set(humidity, 1)); #ifdef MY_DEBUG Serial.print("H: "); Serial.println(humidity); #endif } } }So far I thought I was doing everything correctly.... but here is my debug output

HELP!!!
-
Other things I've tried....
- make sure the connections are good --- CHECK
- make sure there is enough distance --- CHECK (about 15 feet)
- cleareepron on node and reload code --- CHECK
- test with two arduinos -- CHECK (I setup another arduino with a radio as a gateway and it communicated properly with the node described above)
Also, I'm using a fresh download of the mysensor libraries... from yesterday on both the Rp2 and my arduino
-
Just tried a few more things...
- added irq pin 15 to Rp2, then rebuild with the following --- CHECK
./configure --my-gateway=serial --my-rf24-pa-level=RF24_PA_LOW --my-rf24-irq-pin=15- soldered decoupling capacitor to both radios (previously they were jammed into the wires) --- CHECK
- rechecked all wires --- CHECK
-
UPDATE
I think it's a problem with the arduino board itself.
So since my previous posts I've tried multiple radios and I've got a 4 working nodes now:
- Mega + NRF24
- UNO R3 + NRF24
- DCcEle (clone) + NRF24
- Nano DCCduino (clone) + NRF24
Plus the Raspberry Pi 2 as gateway with NRF24L01+ PA/LNA is working.
So... it seems like it's a problem with that Uno board.... weird.
I've tried multiple radios (specifically ones that worked on the other boards) and none of them work. Like I said before, the board and the Rp2 seem to be communication but not properly.
Has anyone ran into a similar problem before?
