RFM69 new driver delay
-
@gohan
And where we can send issue with this?
-
github and if you attach the rfm69 verbose output both for gw and node
-
@gohan
But how I can download info from gateway and node?On github created issue but nothing replay from developers...
-
@pepson all core members are helping MySensors when they have free time. Quick replies can happen, but don't count on it. We have as many projects and as little time as you.

I run mysgw 2.30 on a RPi 3 Model B and all nodes on 2.20 with RFM69:
cat /proc/cpuinfo . . Hardware : BCM2835 Revision : a02082I did a git pull then configured:
./configure --my-transport=rfm69 --my-is-rfm69hw --my-rfm69-frequency=868 make sudo make installNote that I don't use LED's or specify gateway. My Controller is Domoticz
I then started the gateway with debug (note missing -d) (and the log is from today):

Hi
But you run gateway on 2.3.0 and node on 2.2.0 without NEW DRIVER and it was working ?
Even though the gateway has a different version and nodes have a different ?
All people tell that gateway and nodes must have the same version ?
-
There have been versions in the past that were not backward compatible, but usually it is not necessary to have same version on gw and nodes
-
Ok thanks
-
@pepson
Yes, I run gateway 2.30 and nodes on 2.20 without new driver. No probems.
-
Today i installed Gateway on RPI3 with version 2.3.0 but node has 2.2.0 with NEW_DRIVER and still is problem with communication.
After come back to home i test it with change version on node to 2.2.0 without NEW_DRIVER.
I give you and info...
But tell me on what RPI you have run gateway version 2.3.0 ?
I have RPI3 version B.

@mickecarlsson
It is the same hardware and rev.
Ok i done test...
On Gateway on RPI3 i have installed MySensors 2.3.0On node i installed version 2.2.0
One with NEW_DRIVER. Communication with gateway sometimes is ok but still with problem lost communication.Second test installed on node 2.2.0 without NEW_DRIVER and it no working. No communicate with gateway.
Not working NODE. Any reaction to control relay.For me only all working when i have MySensors 2.2.0 also on Gateway and also on node with NEW DRIVER option.

What kind of antenna do you have on the RPi for the radio? And what kind of antenna do you have on the node?
-
I have a wire length if I remember 82mm.
-
Just a hunch, add 4 mm to it so that it is 86 mm instead..
And the power supply for the RPi must be able to provide at leat 1.5 A at 5Volt. Dont go for a cheap powersupply, it wont cope with the power drain from the ROi.
-
Hi
my bug lenght antenna is 86mm. Sorry.
Power for RPI is very good and original raspberry manufacturer provide about 2,5AAfter my tests only on MySensors 2.2.0 on Gateway and on Nodes 2.2.0 with NEW_DRIVER all works ok.
In other like gateway 2.3.0 and node 2.2.0 or 2.3.0 with NEW_DRIVER or without NEW_DRIVER not working correct.

This post is deleted!

I dont must use NEW_DRIVER, but when i write sketch to my node without option NEW_DRIVER, it no working. I tested some combination...mix. Gateway 2.3.0 or 2.2.0 with node 2.2.0 and 2.3.0 and Only with NEW_DRIVER works ok and only on 2.2.0 on node and gateway.
This is my sketch.

And is any chance to run gateway on RPI3 but on old default driver not with NEW DRIVER ?
Anybody has any solution for my problem with communication on version 2.3.0 ?
-
I just checked all my nodes:
- Garage - measures temperature/humidity and power usage - uses NEW_DRIVER, Arduino UNO, powered all times.
- Storage - measures temperature/humidity and power usage - uses NEW_DRIVER, Arduino UNO powered all times.
- Greenhouse - measures temperature/humidity - uses "old" driver, Arduino Pro Mini, battery powered.
- Patio - measures temperature/humidity - uses "old" driver, Arduino Pro Mini, battery powered.
- Bedroom - measures temperature/humidity - uses "old" driver, Arduino Pro Mini, battery powered.
- Kitchen area - measures temperature/humidity - uses "old" driver, Arduino Pro Mini, battery powered.
My nodes are within 40 meters from the gateway.
I will no reprogram the node 4 and 5 to use the new driver to see if that makes any difference.
Node 1 and 2 are the nodes farthest away from the gateway, there is one brick wall and three wood walls between the node and the gateway.
-
@mickecarlsson
Please also for all points give info what version MySensors use and if you can upload your sketches for all point.And Gateway has on RPI3 with version 2.3.0 ? By Serial or ethernet ? And tell me with what controller you use it ? I use with Home Assistant.
And BTW tell me how long Arduino Mini Pro work for you on battery and what battery you use ... and show your project... Did you remove LED from Arduino to save power battery ?
In Sketch you measure % power from battery ? And send to controller ? What controller you use ?
-
@pepson @mickecarlsson
in theory, if I remember well, length of antenna should be:- 86mm for 868mhz
- 82mm for 915Mhz
Better check which frequency you can use where you live.
Also this is in ideal world, it depends on:
- antenna material
- gnd plane size
- etc
So when you want to tune your network, you could use a good, 868mhz for example, antenna on gateway (from a reliable supplier, as there are also a lot of unmatched antenna around).
Then you can try to tune emprically, by checking rssi vs length. Add length or cut, and check. If you need more or less length is dependant on above factors.As already said, we don't recommand mixing new driver with older.. As packet has not the same format.
No eta for fixing rfm69 if issues, too busy for the moment, but we'll try asap.

On nodes and gateway i am sure that i use freq 868MHz.
Look on my command to build gateway and on my sketches node.
On version 2.2.0 i use gateway (as people write by my command i use NEW DRIVER) and also on node also use NEW DRIVER and in this solution all works perfect with no problem.When i update gateway and node to 2.3.0 also with NEW DRIVER i have a problem that controll node and connection is no stabilish. In my Home Assistant sometimes i can controll relay but sometimes no reaction on click by Home Assistant. When use on node old driver (but on gateway NEW DRIVER) it is no working. Only on version 2.2.0 on gatewy and node all works perfect.
Is any chance to build gateway on RPI3 with old driver to RFM69HW ? Because as people write in default building on gateway on RPI3 use NEW DRIVER and we can not change it.... It is true ?
-
@pepson
My comments about tuning antenna were general, it can be useful for optimizing your network.I already read what you said previously
It should be normal that new&old driver not working together (unless a recent change..).We'll take a look at which changes are incorrect. I'm using experimental local mysensors version, so I'm a bit off topic regarding official release and no time for debugging, for the moment, as like I said we'll try to check that asap.
Regarding RPI, I'm not using it as gw (I prefer a lower power gw that i can place where i want) so I'm not sure. Take it with a pinch of salt but if i remember, old rfm69 driver spi functions etc are not adapted to linux (whereas new driver is)
If 2.3 is blocking, do you need a particular fix in 2.3 ? Else you could stick to 2.2
-
OK,
Here goes what I have:
Arduino Pro Mini, chinese clones. Regulator and led removed. Soldered on EasyPCB rev 9.
Radio is RFM69 868 MHz with helicoil antenna on the nodes, 86 mm antenna on the Gateway
Bootloader is from https://github.com/MCUdude/MiniCore
The bootloader settings are:
Board: ATmega328
Bootloader: Yes
Variant: 328P / 328PA
BOD: 1.8v
Clock: 1MHz internal
Compiler LTO: Disabled (default)On the EasyPCB I have only soldered the radio, the antenna and the Arduino. No booster, no capacitors, no resistors.
I have put a link on the REG and run the node on two AA batteries.
The nodes only have one sensor, the BME280.The controller I use is Domoticz, latest version (I think).
I have now reprogrammed some of the nodes to 2.30 and I use NEW_DRIVER.
Gateway - 2.3.0
Patio - 2.3.0
Test-node - 2.3.0
Kitchen - 2.3.0
Bedroom - 2.3.0
UV and LUX - 2.3.0No problems at all.
However, I do not use the receive() function on my nodes.
And I see that you use the REPEATER setting, if your node can reach the gateway the disable repeater.
-
Tell me for what you change bootloader ? And i also have clone chine arduino pro mini... I also must change bootloader on this Arduino Pro Mini CLONE CHINA ? Because i dont change bootloader after buy...
And if you can show also your antenna...and where you buy this antenna ? I try found on Aliexpres but not found.
And I see that you use the REPEATER setting, if your node can reach the gateway the disable repeater.
But i can not use REPEATER function to to increase the range from the gate - something like the MESH network ?And is any chance to you test my SKETCH with relay on your arduino ?
-
You don't ned to change bootloader, I do because I run on battery and it fits my need.
I can't test your sketch as I don't have the necessary hardware to test it.
How far apart are your nodes?
My antenna is from AliExpress
-
@mickecarlsson
Now my node is very near my Gateway about 6meters. Because now i project my automation in my new home.But if you only have Arduino Pro Mini with Radio RFM69HW you can test my sketch. I think that you dont need 2xrelay to test it... Please...
But for what is function REPEATER ? To increase range from Gateway to very far node ? Then the node with the repeater function extends the range?
When come back to home i try build node without option REPEATER and try run this...
Also can you give on priv info how upload this bootloader ? I can only write by ArduinoIDE or i must do other actions ?
-
You only need repeater fi you have a node far away that can’t reach the gateway, then you add repeater on a node nearer the gateway.
See here: MySensors Network
And if the node has repeater defined it must allways have power and no Sleep.
Sorry, I can’t test the sketch.
-
@mickecarlsson
Can you share me your all sketches ? Thanks
And tell me how you have connected Gateway to RPI3? By ethernet or by serial ? Because i see in your building Gateway that you dont use parameter ETHERNET on port 5003And anybody has any contact to developer @tekka007 ?

@mickecarlsson I done next test.
Updated my Gateway on RPI3 to 2.3.0
Then also update my nodes to 2.3.0
One node which i use is to control Switch Relay. It works ok also with Repeater function and also without Repeater function.
Second node is to control cover by relay. It no working correct also with Reapeater and also without Repeater function. Status is not update in the same time. Sometimes no respod reaction on click button.Below i see SWITCH releay SKETCH and also to Cover.
Please help me.
Also i need help to convert this sketch for Switch 1xRelay to Switch 2x Releay.

Finally
In my opinion on MySensors 2.2.0 all my sketches (switch relay and cover ) works better. With no problem. NO PROBLEM.
Cover works perfect and switch works perfect without any timeout and delay. ANd all node works without REPEATER.
My opinion is that in version 2.3.0 something not working correct with radio RFM69HW.
Maybe for sensors which send data from time to time is ok , but for cover which transfer data when cover is roll, it is problem... and gateway can not recived all data when node send position cover. Maybe developer read this thread and can do any changes to correct it.
-
ANd tell me how you connect Gateway to your Domoticz Controller ? What path to usb or serial you setup in Domoticz ?

And we're a few, using rfm69.
So if 2.2 fixes your issue, it can be a good idea.
-
Ok thanks. WAiting for info... and good info for me will be that problem with RFM69HW on version 2.3.0 will be resolve and i can update to this version. Now i must come back to version 2.2.0
-
If you don't need specific features in 2.3, then stick to 2.2 that works well.

My nodes, stable for 3+ months, with new version they have issues. In detail, they cannot get ACK. In my sketch, I check for ACK when transmitting, to force the watchdog or no. NO ACK received (1 every 20/30)
And my nodes are "perfect". LifePo4 or AA, someone feeded directly, RPI3 with 2.5a... And I repeat, no issues in 3+ months from switching from NRF to RFM.

This is my generic temperature/humidity/battery level sketch that I use. I have upgraded all my nodes and gateway to 2.3.0 yesterday and I don't have any issue whatsoever

And tell me how you have connected Gateway to RPI3? By ethernet or by serial ? Because i see in your building Gateway that you dont use parameter ETHERNET on port 5003
I use Ethernet to connect to my Domoticz.
The reason that you don't see my configuration for ETHERNET or PORT is because they are default when you configure.
If you look at the file Makefile.inc you will see the build options. In my case the file looks like this:SOC=BCM2837 CPPFLAGS=-march=armv8-a+crc -mtune=cortex-a53 -mfpu=neon-fp-armv8 -mfloat-abi=hard -DMY_RADIO_RFM69 -DMY_RFM69_NEW_DRIVER -DMY_GATEWAY_LINUX -DMY_DEBUG -DLINUX_SPI_BCM -DLINUX_ARCH_RASPBERRYPI -DMY_RFM69_FREQUENCY=RFM69_868MHZ -DMY_IS_RFM69HW LDFLAGS=-pthread PREFIX=/usr/local CC=gcc CXX=g++ BUILDDIR=build BINDIR=bin GATEWAY_DIR=/usr/local/bin INIT_SYSTEM=systemd SPI_DRIVER=BCMSo in my case I have these defines:
MY_RADIO_RFM69
MY_RFM69_NEW_DRIVER
MY_GATEWAY_LINUX
MY_DEBUG
LINUX_SPI_BCM
LINUX_ARCH_RASPBERRYPI
MY_RFM69_FREQUENCY=RFM69_868MHZ
MY_IS_RFM69HW

@mickecarlsson
You dont have issue becuase temp/hum send data from time to time every defined time.
My sketch with relay also looks that works ok.
But problem is on sketch with relay to control covers. WHen cover roll node send still data and it is problem...
This is my opinion.

@pepson
just to know, when you get this issue, do you send to one shutter only? (because i see you're sending each %, each 200ms). Well we have already did a stress test in the past, one packet each 50-70ms with a dozen of nodes and it worked but that was with a local unoffcial lib, and not with rpi as gw.
I don't remember if buffer has been implemented in regular branch, for rfm69 (but I think so). And it should work like you said it works with 2.2
We'll be able retry some stress tests, unfortunately not on rpi as gw (not using this setup), I'm not sure but maybe only marceloaqno may be using rpi with rfm69 (not sure), and we're a very few rfm69 users. Let us check if it's a general problem or rpi as gw only.
Sorry for disturbance

@scalz
Hmmm
I am not advanced user. This sketch i found on github from other user. I can change sometinh in sketch to test it ? Can you help me what change in sketch to test ?
-
@pepson
no idea if it will help you, but what i meant is sending less msg .
I think i recognize some parts of this sketch, not sureSo, in your sketch, here you can see it sends at each %
if (isMoving) { unsigned long _now = millis(); if (_now - lastLevelTime >= timeOneLevel * 1000) { if (directionUpDown == DIRECTION_UP) { currentShutterLevel += 1; } else { currentShutterLevel -= 1; } currentShutterLevel = constrain(currentShutterLevel, 0, 100); #ifdef MY_DEBUG Serial.println(String(requestedShutterLevel)); Serial.println(String(currentShutterLevel)); #endif lastLevelTime = millis(); send(msgPercentage.set(currentShutterLevel));try to change this last line, by:
if (currentShutterLevel % 5 == 0) send(msgPercentage.set(currentShutterLevel)); // change 5 by 10 if you want to send each 10% for exampleno worry about shutter level update in controller, because when it will stop it will send its level (with sendstate in shutterhalt).
As your settings in top of sketch is 20sec for a complete roll, then it should send each second instead of 200ms previously (except if you did some calibration), and if i'm not wrong, I quickly read it!
-
Sorry but i dont know what line chage with this your line
if (currentShutterLevel % 5 == 0) send(msgPercentage.set(currentShutterLevel)); // change 5 by 10 if you want to send each 10% for example```
-
@pepson
I extracted a part of your sketch above. change the last line of the extract
-
Should looks like this ?
if (isMoving) { unsigned long _now = millis(); if (_now - lastLevelTime >= timeOneLevel * 1000) { if (directionUpDown == DIRECTION_UP) { currentShutterLevel += 1; } else { currentShutterLevel -= 1; } currentShutterLevel = constrain(currentShutterLevel, 0, 100); #ifdef MY_DEBUG Serial.println(String(requestedShutterLevel)); Serial.println(String(currentShutterLevel)); #endif lastLevelTime = millis(); if (currentShutterLevel % 5 == 0) send(msgPercentage.set(currentShutterLevel)); // change 5 by 10 if you want to send each 10% for example```

Ok tested as show in previus post. And the same problem. Maybe a little better. But maybe no...
On 2.2.0 is a very very better.
