π¬ MDMSNode "Lighting" Rev 1.1
-
-
Added thermal fuse.
-
Nice Work! When you plan to publish the PCB design?
-
@artipi At the first I should check the new design (ordering pcbs + wait delivering (3 weeks) + solder and test (3-4 days). In my opinion, it will be in September.
-
Ok, thanks!
-
The first batch of devices will be shipping to the customer soon

Now i can understand the modifications on the rev1.1. Do you detect in the firmware if the light is off or on with the ACS712 ? Does the push switch from the wall will still be acting independently of this Mysensors board?
Light status (on/off) will update when the physical switch will be pressed?

@jeremushka I developed this device and added functionality to it that can be useful for many users of MySensors technology. Personally, I use only the lamp on / off function. I do not use the wall switch, current flow detecting, etc. I can only theoretically answer on your questions. For confirmation it, is necessary to implement all this in the sketch.

It is possibility.

Wall switch must connect directly to terminal block. No other connections should be.

This needs to be controlled by the sketch.

@kalina, Thanks. So it will not work for my configuration. Wall switch (push button) is already installed. No possibilities to draw more electrical wires.
Moreover, if i put the board near the light, i have just the Neutral and the return wire from the wall switch. No Live wire to power on the mysensors board.
I think in my ase the best way is to manage everything in my garage in the electrical main board where all the wires are mapped. I can get L + N for mysensors power supply. And i can continue to reuse the original wall switch independently of the Mysensors board.
