Problem when sending or receiving

[nono056]

Hello everybody!
I have a problem :
I have an arduino nano which is the SerialGateway
An arduino mini is a node with a ds18b20.
When i test my sensor with the original arduino library for the ds18b20, it works, i have a good temperature.
I test too my two nrf24l01 with a ping with the mirf library and this works too.
My problem is the SerialGateway return me infos like 255;255;5;4; for my temp sensor.
I have used originals sketchs of the mysensors
Anyone can tell me why i don't have my temperature in the serial interface?

PS : Sorry for my bad english...

"like" is not good enough :smile: .. Is the above exactly what you get?

By default your sensor will ask controller for format-settings. If you don't have any controller it will ask forever. Try removing the line:

metric = gw.isMetricSystem();

Thanks Hek for your answer!
The really message is :
0;0;4;11;Arduino startup complete.
255;255;4;5;
255;255;4;5;
255;255;4;5;
255;255;4;5;

This is exactly the same thing without metric = gw.isMetricSystem();
I have another problem (i think...)
I receive messages every 5 seconds. This is normally 30s?
An other precision, my ds18b20 is on pin 4 (changed in the sketch). Not a problem?

Set a static id for for your sensor node. E.g.

gw.begin(42)

Thanks Hek!!
now it works!

So any idea why the serial gateway doesn't give me an id?
If i put metric = gw.isMetricSystem(); in the code i give 40;255;4;13; and without, it gives me 40;0;1;0;20.7
isMetricSystem would give me metric data and not imperial? I don't understand...
Thanks

Serial gateway does not hand out ids. The controller behind it does. So either you add a controller or use static ids.

@hek Ok perfect!
Thanks!

Hello,

I have the same issue here with libraries 1.3b3 link text

I've setted in the temp sensor the node it, commented the metric line in the sensor too.

Now when I flash, I have a receive timeout (they are close within 10cm):

0;0;4;11;Relaying message back to gateway.
0;0;4;11;Tx: fr=0,to=0,la=0,ne=0,ci=255,mt=4,ty=13,cr=52:
0;0;4;11;Ack: receive timeout
