💬 NodeManager

@user2684 Actually, you are right. Thank you.
But shouldn't the compiler throw an error?Now to the hard part: How to send the actual command from Domoticz, for example to change the sleep duration...
@kted the compiler doesn't complain because for some sensors (e.g. those using i2c), the pin is not required so I made it not mandatory. As for Domoticz, I'll let others to address your question since I don't know that controller enough. Thanks

@user2684 I have looked at the changes in https://github.com/mysensors/NodeManager/pull/174 which incorporates an alternative improved implementation for the _LoadConfig/_SaveConfig functions (interesting that using an intermediate union requires less code than my shifting version- presumably due to differences in the way the GCC optimiser works for an AVR target).
I spotted a coupld of minor points and was also able to further reduce the code size.
Firstly as we are writing C++ rather than C the declaration of the union should just be
// Local union used to split _sleep_time into bytes
union tLongByteArrayCombo{
long long_value;
uint8_t byte_array[4];
} ;
(The typedef systax, although valid C++ is unnecessary - a simple union declaration is sufficient.)
There is also a typo - the original had a member called byte_arrray instead of byte_array.You can also save 24 bytes of code by avoiding the use of a local union variable and simply aliasing _sleep_time as the union type. So instead of _load_config doing -
tLongByteArrayCombo c;
c.byte_array[0] = loadState(EEPROM_SLEEP_1);
c.byte_array[1] = loadState(EEPROM_SLEEP_2);
c.byte_array[2] = loadState(EEPROM_SLEEP_3);
c.byte_array[3] = 0;
_sleep_time = c.long_value;
You can do
(((tLongByteArrayCombo&)_sleep_time).byte_array )[0] = loadState(EEPROM_SLEEP_1);
(((tLongByteArrayCombo&)_sleep_time).byte_array )[1] = loadState(EEPROM_SLEEP_2);
(((tLongByteArrayCombo&)_sleep_time).byte_array )[2] = loadState(EEPROM_SLEEP_3);
(((tLongByteArrayCombo&)_sleep_time).byte_array )[3] = 0;
And in _save_config instead of
tLongByteArrayCombo c;
c.long_value = _sleep_time;
saveState(EEPROM_SLEEP_1, c.byte_array[0]);
saveState(EEPROM_SLEEP_2, c.byte_array[1]);
saveState(EEPROM_SLEEP_3, c.byte_array[2]);
you can use
saveState(EEPROM_SLEEP_1, (((tLongByteArrayCombo&)_sleep_time).byte_array )[0] );
saveState(EEPROM_SLEEP_2, (((tLongByteArrayCombo&)_sleep_time).byte_array )[1] );
saveState(EEPROM_SLEEP_3, (((tLongByteArrayCombo&)_sleep_time).byte_array )[2] );In my specific sample sketch I had the following code sizes
Original NodeManager.cpp 28242 Bytes

Patched NodeManager with additional changes above - 28130 Bytes ( saving another 24 Bytes of code)@graham86 I guess you are referring to https://github.com/mysensors/NodeManager/pull/217, not 174, am I wrong? Anyway, any contribution that would help saving bytes is more than welcome: NodeManager is becoming more and more complex and the situations where we are out of storage start increasing so we definitely need to save whatever wherever we can :-) Regarding what you are proposing above, keep on eye on PR #217; once a new one dedicated to this part of the code will be created as discussed there, feel free to add your own PR to that branch or just let me know and I'll do it for you. Thanks!

@vikasjee sorry my bad, I think I couldn't understand your suggestion :) Do you have an example to let me understand better? thanks and sorry again, I'm sure I'm missing something somewhere :)
@user2684, Sorry, couldn't revert to your query earlier as i was away building a small library.
Expanding onto my earlier post on the requested Power Management feature -
A simple switch will complete a circuit whenever its switched ON. This allows for placing the switch on the ground return wire too. So only a single GND-ON (Switched ON) will complete the circuit (without requiring an additional Vcc-ON switch).Now, with a developer configured #DEFINE GND_ON_POWER =1 may be checked in NodeManager's PowerManagement functions to DigitalWrite(Digital_GND_ON_Pin, LOW)
for a switchON effect.Additionally, To provide an extra current to a sensor (i.e. more than a ~10mA-20mA, a max safe current provided by an Arduino pin) an external power source (other than Arduino +5V0 OR +3V3) may be provided by that external power source (of course with with a common ground wire between Arduino and that powersource to complete the circuit.)
Also, with the current 2Wire PowerOn methodology, the VccPowerOn switch can provide only one positive voltage (that provided by Arduino Vcc, say +5V0) but not +3V3 (say) to the sensors. If some attached sensors require the other voltage (+3V3), then, this 2Wire PowerOn method will not help. Whereas, a single GND_On power methodology will still switch the circuit thus managing the Power to those sensors too.
[PS: Signal Voltage Levels will still need to be managed by the developer attaching those sensors to the node]I think this simple feature will add on to the power of the PowerManagement functions.
Hope this clears some air ? Open to suggestions...

@vikasjee thanks all clear now! I'll track this with https://github.com/mysensors/NodeManager/issues/224. Thanks again for the detailed explanation!

Hello all, just to let you know when compiling against the latest version of the mysensors 2.2.0-beta library, NodeManager will crash on startup, just after presenting the mysensors logo. Thanks @gohan for pointing this out! Root cause is still unknown but when MY_DEBUG is defined, the crash doesn't take place (https://github.com/mysensors/NodeManager/issues/223)

I'm afraid that issue 223 is not a NodeManager failure. I can reproduce it in a new sketch without using NodeManager.
Other issue with MySensors are, NRF24 doesn't link with controller.
If MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_RF24 is defined, it automagically works. -

@Sergio-Rius, with RF24_VERBOSE on, the system crashes in 40-50 seconds especially if you're connected to the serial monitor or if your serial gateway has this #DEFINE on.
Still more strange, suddenly started to work properly on 2/3 of my testing nodes. That killed me.
What about the gateways you are using? And the controllers?

Hi,
I'm having trouble with the motion sample code. I have changed the setSleepHours(1) command to setSleepMinutes(1). I understand that the sensor will send a hart beat every 1 min. This is working fine for the hart beat, but evertime the hart beat is send the sensor sends a Trigger messages as well even though the sensor is not triggered. I thought that maybe there is a power dip and that it might cause the PIR (RS501) to send a interrupt, but I have removed the setSleepMinutes command and replaced it with a setBatteryReportHours(1) command. This command is send correctly and the sensor only sends the trigger command when the PIR is triggered. Did anyone have a similar issue?
Attached is the sensor debug output when the setSleepMinutes command is used:

The strange thing is that the interrupt is coming from the call to mysensors' sleep() function which is returning a positive number corresponding to the interrupt linked to pin 3 instead of a negative value like it should after a sleeping cycle. Anybody else experiencing this behavior with NodeManager v1.6? thanks

@user2684 can you add support for the Si7021 sensor as found in sensebender micro?
https://www.mysensors.org/hardware/microalso, 2nd question.
how do i register a sensor that is onboard?
you ask for a child id and pin that it's on. but if it's an onboard sensor. how do you make that work? just omit the pin? -

For question #2, for sensors using i2c the pin is not required despite within the code nodemanager will set a random pin (have a look at SensorSHT21 for example)

After a few months working behind the scene, NodeManager got kind of a full review in terms of architecture and usability. The code should be now simpler to understand for new users, the memory utilization has been optimized and the overall user experience has been improved.
The looooong list of things that have been changed are detailed on https://github.com/mysensors/NodeManager/pull/229.
Please note this is only available in the development branch (https://github.com/mysensors/NodeManager/tree/development) and will be generally available only when NodeManager's v1.7 will be released (it will take I guess still a few months).Since this change was blocking other pending changes, I hope now the development will be faster and feel free to submit your PRs now that the new architecture has been finalized.
As always, any feedback is more than welcome.

@user2684 Thanks a lot for the architecture change, which makes a lot of sense conceptually.
Unfortunately, it appears to use more memory than before. I'm working on an air quality board with eight MQ sensors, an MH-Z19 CO2 sensor and a Plantower PMSA003 particulate matter sensor. In previous development versions (1.7-dev, before today), the eight MQ sensors and the MH-Z19 worked fine, but now after your big merge of #229 the sketch appears to run out of memory after adding the child of the sixth MQ sensor. Do you see any chance to optimize for memory?
Old sketch (using a previous development version of NodeManager, without the PMSA003; 155 bytes left after all nine sensors are fully initialized): https://github.com/open-tools/NodeManager_GasSensor/tree/master/NodeManager_GasSensor
New sketch (using the latest version of NodeManager, plus a PMSA003): https://github.com/kainhofer/NodeManager/tree/GasSensor
That sketch runs out of memory with the sixth MQ sensor (I added debug output with free memory at a lot of spots). Of course, I have commented out the PMSA003 completely to have a correct comparison.FWIW, the sketch is for this board: https://github.com/open-tools/NodeManager_GasSensor/blob/master/images/IMAG2267.jpg

@reinhold if you have high memory requirement, what about switching to a more modern architecture like stm32f103c8t6 on the famous "blue pill" boards ? It has 20k or RAM (10 times what you have on Arduino) and 64k of flash and it's supported by MySensors, in addition to be very cheap (2$/board). You will need voltage converter between 3.3V of the board and 5V of your sensors but that's not a big deal in exchange of the possibility to expand your board with more sensors in the future.
