3. Wemos D1 Mini ESP8266 GW Homeassistant connection problem with sensor node

Wemos D1 Mini ESP8266 GW Homeassistant connection problem with sensor node

  • Sushukka

    Hello,
    I'm trying to setup my first ESP8266 sensor. I have uploaded the ESP8266 Gateway sketch from Mysensors_master library:

    /**

 * DESCRIPTION
 * The EthernetGateway sends data received from sensors to the WiFi link. 
 * The gateway also accepts input on ethernet interface, which is then sent out to the radio network.
 *
 * VERA CONFIGURATION:
 * Enter "ip-number:port" in the ip-field of the Arduino GW device. This will temporarily override any serial configuration for the Vera plugin. 
 * E.g. If you want to use the defualt values in this sketch enter: 192.168.178.66:5003
 *
 * LED purposes:
 * - To use the feature, uncomment WITH_LEDS_BLINKING in MyConfig.h
 * - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
 * - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
 * - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error

    I can see them in my router's DHCP table:

ESP_DE24D3	Wireless 192.168.0.59 	18:FE:34:DE:24:D3

    Gateway continues writing:

    0;255;3;0;9;TSP:SANCHK:OK
0;255;3;0;9;TSP:SANCHK:OK

    and client:

    TSM:FPAR
TSP:MSG:SEND 1-1-255-255 s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,ft=0,st=bc:

    It seems that whatever serial.print-lines I write on the sensor sketch (in presentation, setup, loop) they never end up to the actual serial log. Don't know why. 😞

    Finally to the Homeassistant. I have defined in configuration.yaml:

    mysensors:
  gateways:
    - device: '192.168.0.70'
      persistence_file: '/home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/mysensors3.json'
      tcp_port: 5003
  debug: true
  optimistic: false
  persistence: true
  retain: true
  version: 2.0

    And when starting Homeassistant it says:

    16-11-17 11:48:58 INFO (MainThread) [homeassistant.core] Timer:starting
16-11-17 11:48:58 INFO (Thread-5) [mysensors.mysensors] Trying to connect to ('192.168.0.70', 5003)
16-11-17 11:48:58 INFO (Thread-5) [mysensors.mysensors] Connected to ('192.168.0.70', 5003)

    But tells nothing more nor comes any updates of my DHT22 sensor in the log.
    This is currently the whole environment. Homeautomation is running correctly on my Raspberry Pi3 and I can access the web interface with no problem. Then there are these two Wemos D1 mini ESP8266 boards currently connected via USB to my laptop. One has nothing but USB cable feeding power (=gateway), other has USB cable + DHT22 sensor connected. DHT22 sensor works as I have tested it alone without Mysensors libraries having a web server running on that Wemos showing the temperature/humidity information on a web page. Running out of ideas, hopefully someone can help. :s

    Hmm. does your DHT node also run on a Wemos D1?

    Yes, they both run on similar Wemos D1 Mini board.

    Hmm.. we don't support that kind of setup.

    Why not just connect the DHT sensor directly to your controller over WiFi? That is, reconfigure it as a gateway. There is no need for RFM radio on ESP nodes/gateways.

    Ok, thanks! 🙂 I thought that a gateway is also needed when using ESP8266. Is there then any idea to use Mysensors with ESP8266 and Homeassistant? Wouldn't it just be better to setup a MQTT server on Homeassistant server and connect sensors directly as MQTT clients to it? I have also some nrf24l01 boards waiting to be implemented. Those would then connect through Mysensors gateway (serial/ethernet).

    You can setup your ESP as a mysensors MQTT client or use the "normal" mysensors protocol over a socket. It all depend on what variants Home Assistant supports.

    The good thing with sticking with MySensors is that you can reuse mysensors example sketches and (hopefully) have a protocol Home Assistant understands (which create the desired devices).

    But you can of course roll your own thing over MQTT and create your own extensions/plugin to Home Assistant if you prefer.

    @hek Thanks again and a very good point there. Mysensors sketch examples have been very useful so far so maybe better to stick with them. One question about the ESP8266 gateways: If I change my sensor node sketch to gateway sketch will the node still act like some kind of a hub? I mean when I'm going to build tens of sensors around the house, I don't want to have too many repeater nodes slowing down the Wifi network.

    No, it will act standalone, unless you enable the radio sub network.

    Ok, I managed to add DHT part to the ESP8266GW sketch, but still have the problem with reading the DHT22 data.

    It seems that MySensors somehow screws the ESP8266 pinout layout or the normal Adafruit Arduino DHT library won't work correctly with it. If I dump the Mysensor stuff and just use the same Wemos D1 mini board with the same DHT22 sensor and DHT library it shows the temperature/humidity values no problem.

    Nope, we don't screw with any pin mapping.
