talking to vera with arduino
-
i am trying to use a arduino mega to make a modified version of the irrigation system that is posted in the build section of the website, and i am wondering the specifics on using vera. do i need two radios to talk between each other? for example, one radio connected to the board and another connected to the computer with a controller? or can i upload the code onto the arduino and vera will recognize the device once the arudino is powered with a radio disconnected from the computer?
thanks!

Connect a gateway (with radio) to your Vera. Either by USB or over ethernet.
As I guess your irrigation node is wireless?
The MySensors Vera plugin will create the devices when presented over the air. Remember to activate the inclusion mode feature on the gateway.

thanks for the reply!
Also, will i be able to have no problems using a mega as compared to a pro mini for the irrigation project?
thanks
