Strange behaviour with mysensors + RFLink
-
Same here:
20;76;MySensors;ID=03;Len=00;pltype=00;t=07;s=FF;DEBUG=ff1d0303ff020307ff;This is a DHT22 sending temp en hum. It worked on a mysensors gateway, but is see these logs when I try to read it with the RFlink. (Firmware 46 & 47)

Thx for your reply
In your sketch to manage the DHT22 you have send(msg...) to transmit temp/hum ?
In my case there is nothing in setup() and loop(), if I remove "#include <MySensors.h>" in my sketch there is not packet receive in RFLink. The behaviour seems to come from MySensors library which send itself some packets ! -
Mysensors has some "service" traffic maybe it is what you are seeing (I am not into RF su I don't know how to read the debug messages you get)

Thanks gohan, very Interesting, if you have more information about that (how to deactivate it etc..), it should be great ;-)

Thanks for feedback,
I'm not an expert, I just want to know if is it normal behavior to have packets send by mysensors lib in empty project ?
Thanks for your clarification

Hi,
Little update. So I need as you said a serial gateway. The question is : does rflink is equivalent to mysensors gateway ?
If not i need to build a serial gw and connect it on usb port of my raspberry and declare it on domoticz interface. If yes how to configure domoticz to manage rflink + others protocol ? (Declare 2 gateways (rflink and traditionnal gw) on same usb port?
Thanks for your help.

@knop
RFLink is not equivalent to a MySensors gw, and won't be. You should better use a MySensors gw.
Else i would wish them good luck to handle the full Mysensors lib (and updates), plus some others protocol, without loosing packets etc..I don't use a RFLink, but what I'm pretty sure is, actually, :
- it can only receive MySensors nodes, as RFLink is sort of sniffer. It can't be a part of the MySensors network, with id etc, so it can't send commands to MySensors nodes.
- If MySensors encryption is enabled, or also signing, then it would become even more difficult for the RFLink to listen something (its basic task)
- especially, because RFLink doesn't use MySensors GW code. Make sense it just sniff/listen.
When using a MySensors GW, you can also benefit:
- sending commands of course
- the full MySensors protocol and features
- MySensors library updates
- controllers (like domoticz etc.) have dedicated plugins for using MySensors, which make this even more friendly to use compared to a generic sniffer (because the plugin is customized for MySensors features)
I'm pretty sure there are others relevant point, but I hope this clarifies :)

Ok thanks you guys, I will try to make a Serial GW with Arduino Uno + NRF24L01
And to connect this GW to my Raspberry Pi3.
But I very disappointed about RFLink, and do not understand why there is an option "MySensors" on it !Thanks again for clarifications.
