Can't send message over arduino serial monitor
-
Ok so I have got a few questions and a problem to solve
I have two arduino unos hooked up with the nrf24l01+ one is running the (arduino button relay) and the other is running the (serial gateway) examples. Once I plug the sensors in I Ioad arduino running the gateway into the serial moniter and it gives me the normal "0;0;3;0;14;Gateway start up complete." then I turn on the (relay button arduino) and it gives me a confirming
"105;255;0;0;18;1.4.1

105;1;0;0;3;1.4.1"So, I have good connection and the node is all set up. So then I try and give the node a command to turn on or off, so I type into the serial monitor
105;1;1;1;2;1\n
or 105;1;1;1;2;0\n
or 105;1;0;1;2;1\n
or 105;1;1;0;2;0\n
or 105;0;1;1;2;1\n
or 105;0;1;1;2;0\n
just about every variation that you could imagine and nothing.
The biggest question I have is, Am i supposed to type anything in before 105;1;1;1;2;1\n ?
Is there a method that I am supposed to call up? I am writing directly into the serial monitor form the arduino ide, and am running the 1.4 library of Mysensors. Is there supposed to be anything else with the message"105;1;1;1;2;1\n" to help this message to compute to the relay?
thanks?

the funny thing is I know the everything is hooked up right because everything works through a controller? Has anyone else tried to get this to work just through the serial monitor?

What is you newline/cr setting in serial monitor?
Are you actually typing \n ?
\n == enter/carriage return
-
The setting has been "No line Ending" And I tried typing it in both ways with the \n and without (105;1;1;1;2;1\n and 105;1;1;1;2;1). What setting should I be in in the serial monitor and what should I type into the serial monitor?
Thank you so much for responding, I am really interested in all this and it looks like you guys have done such a great job! Thanks!

The serial monitor setting should be set to "with line ending".
You should not typ "\n"!
It means that you should press enter on your keyboard.

Hello,

I can send this:
echo "9;3;1;0;2;1\n" >> /dev/ttyUSB0
On the device serial line I see:
read: 0-0-9 s=3,c=1,t=2,pt=0,l=3:1\n Incoming change for sensor:3, New status: 1

You should not typ "\n"!
It means that you should press enter on your keyboard.On Linux I saw that I have to send "\r\n" instead of "\n".
"\r\n" (Carriage return, Line feed) is the Windows return, "\n" only the Linux return.
