    Hi Eoreh

    Maybe problem is in this line:
    digitalWrite(D3, HIGHT); delay(2);

    Did you defined HIGHT symbol?

    Actually I did it this way:

    void WakeUp()
    {
      pinMode(DEVICE_DETECT_PIN, OUTPUT);
      digitalWrite(DEVICE_DETECT_PIN, HIGH);
      delay(1000);
      digitalWrite(DEVICE_DETECT_PIN, LOW);
      delay(1000);
      digitalWrite(DEVICE_DETECT_PIN, HIGH);
    }
    

    and it works flawlessly (Ihave other problem with hanging NRF24, but it is another case)

      Hi !
      My bad. I type mistake in post on forum. In code is good version. Of course You have right should be "HIGH"

      But You give me some idea on "problem in line D3" . I plugin my logic analizer (Saleae) and bingo!. In my egz. arduino this port was "broken" and dont give any change signal. I plugin into D5 and all works. :heart_eyes:

      I have one small issue / feature. After play song -> (in my code upper this song is Jingle bell for Chrismas) - roomba dont react on buttons. I think i will change this. Also statistic is very bad write. It's also for rewrite.

      Now i have to do more test, and next make looking good case for "node" on roomba. (cos mother-in-law - kill me :) ). But right now im very happy.

      Thank you @emka for your replay.

        Hello Eoreh,

        I have a older Roomba and had the same idea to control it by my sensors. I only did a other approach.
        I did not mondify the Roomba with a serial interface and a MySensors node on the Roomba. But I did put a MySensors node on the docking station. And control the clean/spot/max command by imitation of the IR commands with a IR Led on the MySensors Node. And I also detect with my nod if the Roomba is in his dock charging or not. With this dock notification I measure the amount of time the Roomba is on its way before it returns to its dock charging (which is also a indication of the quality of the Roomba battery, short time away is a bad battery). I also measure the room temperature and humidity with the same node.
        If you want to know the code let me know I show you.
        With this approach you don't need to put anything on top of the Roomba which wil get broken off (is my experience) when its e.g. working under the bench.
        See the pictures in the link of this setup: alt text

          I have only 1 dock station and many rooms :). My roomba dont going "under the bench" so i dont have experience like yours with sensor on top.

          But will be interested looks for code in your approach so please show it.

          Thank You.

            Eoreh,

            I used different pieces of code from different projects.and combined them to one sketch. I used some from this project : link text
            And the sketch from the MySensors Relay Actuator. I switch the Node/Relay on for about 10 seconds and then off. In the 10 seconds the IR sends the CLEAN command. With a LDR I detect if the Roomba dock led is on or off. So I detect if the Roomba is on its dock. Here under the code I hope it helps you.

              Maybe this is off topic but I'm going to buy a roomba but it is so many versions. Will roomba 615 or 616 do the job or is the newer versions smarter cleaner? I have around 80kvd

                @Eawo I do have a 581 and not 100% sure what has been changed on newer models. Maybe you ask in a roomba forum

                  All,
                  I did some updates also thanks to @Eoreh I updated my code a bit. Anyhow, no really news on software side but was able to fit it more or less completely inside of the Roomba.

                  1. I wanted to fit all inside and I think there is enough space but wanted to be able to disable it and thought about a dip-switch somewhere but then decided to have it connected via DIN as before. Means also no soldering on Roomba

                  2. finding a spot was easy:
                    alt text
                    There is enough space on the side of the bin. (In picture, the external charging port was already removed)

                  3. I soldered all together and decided to opt for a Nano instead of a Pro Mini due to the lack of 3.3V on board. I know radio might be better powered with a voltage regulator but the reception and reliability is not too important here. Anyhow not experienced any issues so far. I also used the SMD radio to save some extra space.
                    The voltage regulator has a heat sink mounted which is pointing where the charing port was and is getting some "fresh air" ;-)
                    alt text

                  4. all in place and ready to be closed again
                    alt text

                  5. closed without top plate
                    alt text

                  If it stops working or needs a reset, I only need to unplug and replug

                    @parachutesj Mind posting your finished code?

                    Also wonder what is the correct MQTT payload to start for example cleaning?

                      @parachutesj Mind posting your finished code?

                      Also wonder what is the correct MQTT payload to start for example cleaning?

                      Upon start i see the following

                      @moskovskiy82 I did not change too much compared to @EmielA on the code. worked pretty good until I bought a new roomba recently. Haven't tried it on the 980 yet:

                        Just a question, but wouldn't it be an esp8266 a more compact solution? (Not to mention the quick ota programming) Or the roomba is running 5v serial output?

                          @gohan ESP is probably a good alternative. but then again you could also buy an after market wireless module for your roomba.
                          I am not sure about the serial output, but I think it is 5v.

                          but there is plenty of space for a nano or pro mini. wemos mini or nodemcu should also fit

                            ESP is the best solution although couldn't find the code with sensors (only clean/dock commands). I recently made a post on HomeAssistant forum - how wemos D1 fits nicely inside. You only need a buck converter and 4 cat5 wires soldered. And 5V serial output is not such a big problem as you need a voltage divider only on rx pin (didn't put it)

                            P.S. But then one of those "machine revolt weeks happened" so my esproomba didn't respond and then i burned it down. Next day my RPi3 went down with HA and lots of goodies. And today ESXi...

                              Oh man, that sucks a lot. Best luck for your disaster recovery

                              PS if everything you are touching is failing, be careful when you are going to pee 😂

                                @moskovskiy82 I did not change too much compared to @EmielA on the code. worked pretty good until I bought a new roomba recently. Haven't tried it on the 980 yet:

                                i love this project. i am the owner of a roomba 620 and hooked it up to a arduino-mega. putting "clean()" in the code does what it should and the radiomodules are working fine. but it seems that i dont get values from the sensors and so nothing is showing up in homeassistant... :(

                                i checked the wiring about 5 times already and since starting for example "clean()" works i think it is a different issue...

                                did anyone else try this and ran into the same problem?

                                  there is plenty of space for a nano or pro mini. wemos mini or nodemcu should also fit
