About 3:
I will tell a little more. I've sensor with relays and hardware signing. For some reasons sometimes "set message" from Domoticz (via Mysensors RPI GPIO GW) doesn't reach sensor or get "signing fail" status (probably RF issues). In that case relay stays in "previous state" but Domoticz claims that's in "new state".How to force Domoticz to NOT change displayed "state of switch" (at dashboard) when sensors fails to change state of relay?
I've set "ack for relays" at Setup->Hardware->MySensors GW (Setup)->Node->Child. Should I also enable ack in sketch during presentation for sensor (void present(uint8_t childSensorId, uint8_t sensorType, const char *description, bool ack);)?
@bilbolodz Yes that is the flag i use. with that set if i try and change a switch and it cannot connect to the node domoticz throws up an error and the switch does not change. But not for you apparently. I haven't enabled anything extra in the presentation.

can you connect the serial monitor to the node and see if the ack request is getting through

@Boots33 One more question:
In case of function:
void present(uint8_t childSensorId, uint8_t sensorType, const char *description, bool ack);
in documentation (https://www.mysensors.org/download/sensor_api_20) I've found explanation:
"ack - Set this to true if you want destination node to send ack back to this node. Default is not to request any ack"
Does it mean "ask Domoticz to confirm that received my presentation message"?
-
@Boots33 What's you value for "Ack timeout"? I've 1200 (second????) so it looks for huge value! 1200 it's default.
@bilbolodz It's 1200ms so not very long

@Boots33 Sensor is physically offline (no power). I've tried to "turn on" relay. On Domoticz WWW I can see that it's "on". On Mysensors GW logs I can see:
Turn ON:
mysgw: Client 1: 1;6;1;0;2;1
mysgw: !TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=6,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=1,ft=0,st=NACK:
mysgw: !TSF:MSG:SIGN FAILTurn OFF:
mysgw: Client 1: 1;6;1;0;2;0
mysgw: !TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-1-1,s=6,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=1,ft=0,st=NACK:
mysgw: !TSF:MSG:SIGN FAIL -

@Boots33 I've probably found a bug in Domoticz (beta version). In Setup page I can see that Ack in ON and timeout is 1200ms but it's NOT working (values added from default during device presentation). When I turn off and the on ACK (and save) or change timeout for any other value (and save) "ack detection" start to work (I've got an error without sensor present). Thank you for your help.

I have not used an ack in presentation but yes i think you are correct. Not sure if the ack would be from domoticz or just from the gateway though.
Great that you also found the problem for the ack flag in domoticz
