First MySensors project with hard start :-)

[MrRose]

Hey together,

I try my first MySensors Project with two Nodemcu´s and NRF24 radios.

The first Nodemcu working as gateway with a additional NRF24 radio (wired by the manual, sketsh GatewayESP8266 ). And shows after boot the following.

The second Nodemcu uses the same NRF24 radio with a simple sketsh BinarySwitchSleepSensor shows the following serial Log:

To me looks not like the GW get any connection to the second node. Due to i put to each radio the explained capacitor (100uF)

As Controller i try FHEM and Domoticz both connect to the gw without problems.

But the result is the same. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help.

Hi @mrrose, welcome to the forum!

Yes all nrf24 radios need capacitor for stable operation.

Could you post the gateway log from where the (second) node boots up and asks for parent?

[MrRose]

Hi

each nrf24 has as 100uF capacitor.

The log did at the GW did not change during the ask for parent. In remains on the posted log.

[mfalkvidd]

@mrrose interesting. Could there be another MySensors gateway within range? Maybe a neighbor?

Edit: I am asking because st=OK means that a node has acknowledged that it did receive the message.

[MrRose]

Ok that will be a good idea in that case a change the nrf24 channel inside the myConfig.h will change the situation right?

[mfalkvidd]

@mrrose yes that's the easiest way. Remember to re-upload sketches to both nodes after the change.
