SmartSleep and multiple messages on HVAC sensor

[ogghst]

Hello to all and thanks for this incredible library!

I have a sensor that is controlling my climate system through an IR led.
I have Openhab2.2 as controller with mysensors 2.3 addon, a mysensors 2.1.1 serial gateway, and a mysensors 2.1.1 NRF24 node presenting an S_HVAC sensor:

  present(CHILD_ID_HVAC,  S_HVAC, "Controllo Climatizzatore");

it implements all the functionalities of an HVAC system by receiving and sending back several message types:

MyMessage msgSmHvacTemp(CHILD_ID_HVAC, V_TEMP);                         //mapped to temperature
MyMessage msgSmHvacFlowState(CHILD_ID_HVAC, V_HVAC_FLOW_STATE);           //mapped to HvacMode
MyMessage msgSmHvacSpeed(CHILD_ID_HVAC, V_HVAC_SPEED);               //mapped to HvacFanMode
MyMessage msgSmHvacFlowMode(CHILD_ID_HVAC, V_HVAC_FLOW_MODE);          //mapped to HvacVanneMode
MyMessage msgSmHvacSetPointCool(CHILD_ID_HVAC, V_HVAC_SETPOINT_COOL); //mapped to temperature
MyMessage msgSmHvacSetPointHeat(CHILD_ID_HVAC, V_HVAC_SETPOINT_HEAT); //mapped to temperature

the sensor goes in smartsleep mode every 30 seconds.

everything works fine if I adjust one parameter per sleep cycle on my controller, but if I set more than one parameter (e.g. temperature and fan speed) only one message is sent from openhab:

2018-04-28 15:53:40.906 [DEBUG] [otocol.MySensorsAbstractConnection$MySensorsReader] - Message from gateway received: 0;255;3;0;9;TSF:MSG:READ,9-9-0,s=255,c=3,t=22,pt=5,l=4,sg=0:3098

2018-04-28 15:53:40.965 [DEBUG] [otocol.MySensorsAbstractConnection$MySensorsReader] - Message from gateway received: 9;0;1;1;22;3

is this a bug or I misunderstood the queue system of smartsleep? there a workaround for this?

I can't help you on the openhab side, but I can tell you that you may consider also other options https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/8018/mqtt-ir-remote or Broadlink RM devices

@gohan thanks, however the issue i'm having is not in the HVAC implementation, but in the messaging..
