[solved] !TSM:FPAR:NO REPLY if using #define MY_RFM69_NEW_DRIVER



  • Hello,

    I am using Sensebender GW with RFM69HW and I have the following setting:

    /**

     * DESCRIPTION
     * The EthernetGateway sends data received from sensors to the ethernet link.
     * The gateway also accepts input on ethernet interface, which is then sent out to the radio network.
     *
     * The GW code is designed for Arduino 328p / 16MHz.  ATmega168 does not have enough memory to run this program.
     *
     * LED purposes:
     * - To use the feature, uncomment MY_DEFAULT_xxx_LED_PIN in the sketch below
     * - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
     * - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
     * - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error
     *
     * See http://www.mysensors.org/build/ethernet_gateway for wiring instructions.

    If I remove

    #define MY_RFM69_NEW_DRIVER
    

    all works fine. Both the GW and the sensor are running MySensors v2.2.0, but tried v2.3.0-alpha with the same results sadly.

    Any idea what the problem may be please?



  • Solved! The GW radio turned down to be non-H so I have to remove #define MY_IS_RFM69HW to work fine. In case of the old driver, GW and the sensor were tested on the same laptop, i.e. close to each other and hence they worked even with MY_IS_RFM69HW option.


  • Mod

    @alexsh1 great work, thanks for reporting back.



  • @mfalkvidd I have come across many times when RFM69 radio is soldered and it is very hard to tell specifics - H or non-H. I was 100% sure I had an H version :((


  • Mod

    If you look carefully the HW pcb you will notice 3 small 3 pins black components that are not present in the W version. That way it is easier to understand which is which



  • @gohan Yeah, after hours of troubleshooting there is always someone one learns :)))
