switch is not working when gateway is unavailable



  • Hello!

    Could you point me to - how to deal with situation, when Gateway goes down (raspberry pi which does a lot of stuff..) - and the sensor is left by himself alone?

    If the Nano, which acts like sensor (light switch) is restarted when Gateway is down - i can't operate my sensor. It just tells me:

    865584 !TSM:FPAR:NO REPLY

    935837 TSM:FAIL:PDT
    

    Do i need to post the code? It's quite simple, beside all the preparation - here is how i switch lights On/Off:

         Serial.println("LED is on");
         digitalWrite(RELAY_PIN4, !digitalRead(RELAY_PIN4));
         #undef CHILD_ID
         #define CHILD_ID 4
          MyMessage msg(CHILD_ID,V_STATUS);
          send(msg.set(digitalRead(RELAY_PIN4)));
          saveState(CHILD_ID, state);
    

    To wrap it up - how should i program the sensor, so in case of gateway's outage, the system still would be functioning?

    Thankyou! 🙂

    Yes, please post your sketch.



  • Hi, I experienced the same problems, but after some search, it turns out we are not alone

    I ended up using an example from @Boots33 works good for me.

    Mysensors is more aimed at Internet of things than home automation so I guess that's why it's not the default operation.
