Invalid Message, Sensor not being added

David Pinnock

Having managed to get HASS to connect to the USB I am now unable to get the sensor recognised :)

HASS is logging the following error:

0_1515837980561_7c136908-fe6d-4fec-8ced-d16ee5662e6a-image.png

My sketch appears similar to the example here: https://home-assistant.io/components/sensor.mysensors/

I'm using an S_MULTIMETER to send V_VOLTAGE and V_CURRENT values but not V_IMPEDANCE.

Tried changing the child_id to 255 in the sketch but no luck so switched it back to 1.

#include <SPI.h>
#include <MySensor.h>

//#define DEBUG_ON  // comment out this line to disable serial debug
#define CHILD_ID 1

MySensor gw;

MyMessage msgVolts(CHILD_ID, V_VOLTAGE);
MyMessage msgAmps(CHILD_ID, V_CURRENT);
// Possible variable types for multimeter:  V_VOLTAGE, V_CURRENT, V_IMPEDANCE


unsigned long SLEEP_TIME = 5000;  // sleep time between reads (seconds * 1000 milliseconds)
int oldVoltage = 0;
int oldCurrent = 0;
int VOLTAGE_SENSE_PIN = A1;  // select the input pin for the battery sense point
int CURRENT_SENSE_PIN = A2;  // select the input pin for the battery sense point





void setup()  
{

  gw.begin();
  gw.present(CHILD_ID, S_MULTIMETER);
  
   // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller
   gw.sendSketchInfo("Battery Charger", "1.0");

  pinMode(VOLTAGE_SENSE_PIN, INPUT);
  pinMode(CURRENT_SENSE_PIN, INPUT);

  #ifdef DEBUG
    Serial.begin(9600);
  #endif

}





void loop()
{
   // get the battery Voltage

  int     voltageLevel = analogRead(VOLTAGE_SENSE_PIN);
  int     currentLevel = analogRead(CURRENT_SENSE_PIN);
  double  levelinVolts = voltageLevel*0.0492903225806452;
  double  levelinAmps  = currentLevel*0.041125;


  #ifdef DEBUG
    Serial.println(voltageLevel);
    Serial.println(currentLevel);   
    
    Serial.print("Voltage:");    
    Serial.print(levelinVolts);
    Serial.print("v ");    
    
    Serial.print(" Current:");    
    Serial.print(levelinAmps);
    Serial.print("a MaxAmps:");    
    //Serial.print(maxAmps);    
    Serial.println("a ");    
  #endif

//   if (oldVoltage != levelinVolts) {
     // Power up radio after sleep
      gw.send(msgVolts.set(levelinVolts,1));
      
     oldVoltage = levelinVolts;
//   }

//  if (oldCurrent != levelinAmps) {
     // Power up radio after sleep
    gw.send(msgAmps.set(levelinAmps,1));
      
    oldCurrent = levelinAmps;
//  }
  
   gw.sleep(SLEEP_TIME);
}

(I'm no Arduino expert and most of the sketch was adapted from a similar example I found.)

Looking at how its set in Domoticz it does seem like the node itself has an id of 255 but I don't see anywhere to set that? Maybe I should add this manually to the configuration.yaml some how?!

martinhjelmare

What version of mysensors are you using? Your sketch is using a pre 2.0 library api. I suggest you use the latest mysensors library version and update your sketch to use the current api.

Read the api documentation on the mysensors site for more info.

David Pinnock

Ok that seems to have worked... once...

The sensors appeared in HASS but are not now updating, getting these errors:

0_1515927681773_87da4b70-8634-46c1-a26a-b671bab453b0-image.png

I think I read another thread about Pyserial being an issue so wondering if this is causing these errors..

David Pinnock

Damn it still not managed to get this working properly :(

To me, this looks like it should be working. There are some invalid data messages but there are also valid ones which appear to post valid sensor data.

This looks like a valid update for example:

2018-01-16 21:57:03 DEBUG (Thread-7) [homeassistant.components.mysensors] Entity update: Battery Charger 1: value_type 38, value = 3.6

Current configuration in HASS:

mysensors:
  gateways:
    - device: '/dev/ttyUSB0'
      persistence_file: '/home/homeassistant/.homeassistant/mysensors.json'
      baud_rate: 115200
      nodes:
         1:
            name: "Battery Charger"
  optimistic: false
  persistence: true
  retain: true
  version: 2

Maybe I need to define the sensors here?! I've tried updating pyserial but whatever I do (including uninstall and reinstall) it still seems to remain on 2.6.

David Pinnock

Well I've had about enough of this nothing I do seems to work.

Upgraded both my gateway and node to MySensors 2
Configuration.yaml seems correct as per previous post
Some messages seem like they are accepted but no sensors show up
- It also seems like the Gateway may store messages or values, as some that are logged are older values?
PySerial is 2.6 and I can't seem to down/upgrade it whatever I do
strange script errors also but this could also be because of the bad data errors

Script Error:

  File "/srv/homeassistant/lib/python3.4/site-packages/homeassistant/components/sensor/mysensors.py", line 68, in unit_of_measurement
    set_req.V_ORP: 'mV',

I'm about ready to give up now, very frustrating when Domoticz is working just fine on the same RaspberryPi and gateway. I've even considered having Domoticz forward the messages on to Home Assistant! :)

Could really use some help before I throw the damn Arduino out completely and buy a PiZero to see if I can use that!

David Pinnock

Given up!

Written a simple flow in NodeRed that forwards the messages on just fine.

This sends updates to a couple of MQTT sensors set up in my config.

sensor:
  - platform: mqtt
    name: "Charger Current"
    state_topic: "haas/mySensors/1/39"
    value_template: '{{ value_json.string }}'
    unit_of_measurement: 'a'

    name: "Charger Voltage"
    state_topic: "haas/mySensors/1/38"
    value_template: '{{ value_json.string }}'
    unit_of_measurement: 'V'

Not sure if there's a better value template than string? Couldn't find any detail on what options there were..

Pymysensors and home assistant requires pyserial version 3.1.1 or higher. This should be installed automatically when installing and running home assistant with mysensors activated. If it doesn't do that something with your install and environment is not operating normally.

How have you installed home assistant?

David Pinnock

Installed Home Assistant manually on Raspian following the install guide

martinhjelmare

What version of pyserial is installed inside the virtual environment?

sudo su -s /bin/bash homeassistant
cd /srv/homeassistant
source bin/activate
pip3 show pyserial

David Pinnock

3.4:

Name: pyserial
Version: 3.4
Summary: Python Serial Port Extension
Home-page: https://github.com/pyserial/pyserial
Author: Chris Liechti
Author-email: cliechti@gmx.net

Location: /srv/homeassistant/lib/python3.4/site-packages

martinhjelmare

That's good at least. Then the home assistant core feature of installing requirements seems to work in your installation.

I'll have a look at the log messages and see if I can find the problem.

I'll post back later tonight.

David Pinnock

Brilliant thanks very much for the help!

martinhjelmare

I've looked at the home assistant log you've provided. Unfortunately I think I would need a serial log from the node to get more info. It's weird that you get an error about unit of measurement, since all values should be validated when leaving pymysensors before entering the home assistant layer.

If I would guess, I'd say that some message is not sent/received and presentation not fully performed.

I would recommend to change your sketch and keep one sensor value per child sensor, ie not both V_VOLTAGE and V_CURRENT in one child. Home assistant expects one value per child for normal sensors. Only complex entities like cover should report more than one value. It will avoid entity_id clashes.

David Pinnock

Ok I'll try that. Think I have already tried with just sending one value in the sketch but perhaps I would also need to delete the persistent mysensors.json file for it to have a chance.

I have same problem, on both my GWs using MQTT (ESP2866 nodes ) in homeassistant i get lots of these errors

My config (same on both hass dockers only prefixes are different):

mysensors:
  gateways:
    - device: mqtt
      topic_in_prefix: 'cerman/mygateway1-out'
      topic_out_prefix: 'cerman/mygateway1-in'
      persistence_file: '/config/mysensors.json'
      nodes:
        1:
          name: 'obyvacka'
#        3:
#          name: 'living_room'
  optimistic: false
  persistence: true
  retain: true
  version: '2.0'

terxw

Ok so after further reading I found info on the issue, it seems that these are debug messages, we can safaly ignore them.
