[SOLVED] No Serial prints for loop(), using MySensors 2.1.1

[HenryWhite]

Hi,

I'm getting all the debug messages if I define #MY_DEBUG, but none of my Serial prints in the loop functions are shown.
However, Serial prints in the receive function are shown.

Example sketch:

// Enable debug prints to serial monitor
#define MY_DEBUG

// Enable and select radio type attached
#define MY_RADIO_NRF24
//#define MY_RADIO_RFM69

// Enable repeater functionality for this node
#define MY_REPEATER_FEATURE

#define MY_NODE_ID 20

#include <MySensors.h>

#define RELAY_1  5  // Arduino Digital I/O pin number for first relay (second on pin+1 etc)
#define NUMBER_OF_RELAYS 1 // Total number of attached relays
#define RELAY_ON 1  // GPIO value to write to turn on attached relay
#define RELAY_OFF 0 // GPIO value to write to turn off attached relay


void before()
{
	for (int sensor=1, pin=RELAY_1; sensor<=NUMBER_OF_RELAYS; sensor++, pin++) {
		// Then set relay pins in output mode
		pinMode(pin, OUTPUT);
		// Set relay to last known state (using eeprom storage)
		digitalWrite(pin, loadState(sensor)?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF);
	}
}

void setup()
{

}

void presentation()
{
	// Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller
	sendSketchInfo("Relay", "1.0");

	for (int sensor=1, pin=RELAY_1; sensor<=NUMBER_OF_RELAYS; sensor++, pin++) {
		// Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices)
		present(sensor, S_BINARY);
	}
}


void loop()
{
  Serial.println("This doesn't print :(");
  delay(1000);
  
}

void receive(const MyMessage &message)
{
	// We only expect one type of message from controller. But we better check anyway.
	if (message.type==V_STATUS) {
		Serial.println("This does print!");
	}
}

It would be really nice if someone could help me with this problem.

I found the problem, but not the solution.

First, I added #define MY_TRANSPORT_WAIT_READY_MS 1 to the sketch.
Now the loop()-Function gets executed.
Problem: My node isn't registered by the gateway:

New Motion State: 1
80949 !MCO:SND:NODE NOT REG

84969 TSF:MSG:SEND,20-20-0-0,s=255,c=3,t=24,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=OK:1 

:arrow_right: My Gateway is running on an old version of MySensors, I believe it's 1.5.4
Do I have to update the gateway? I thought I could leave it at 1.5.4.

I think that 1.5.x GW does not work with 2.x nodes but 2.x GW works with 1.5.x nodes.
Please update your GW ;)

@korttoma thanks! It works now. :)
Could have saved me hours of troubleshooting if I knew that prior :/
