💬 Building a Raspberry Pi Gateway

mfalkvidd

Hi @magjef29, welcome to the MySensors forum!

You can run your controller(s) on the same Raspberry Pi.

Depending on what tou mean by ”server”, the gateway can be a server, but the gateway is not a controller.

If you haven’t already, see the getting started guide for information about the different parts.

Hi! Does anybody test Cubieboard as Gateway? I have a cubieboard runing archlinux with spi enabled in kernel. How i define pins for nrf24 gateway connection? Or i need to make big changes in code to star work with different bord than Rpi?
Best regards

Артем ТИхонович

This is my old dream to connect directly nrf to Cubieboard GPIOs. Few years ago i try to do this without success using this lib - https://github.com/bearpawmaxim/librf24-sunxi

Hi @артем-тихонович, welcome to the MySensors forum!

For the NRF24, the same defines as for normal sketches are used. Documentation: https://www.mysensors.org/apidocs/group__RF24SettingGrpPub.html
The defines can be added to the Raspberry Pi gateway by following the instructions on https://www.mysensors.org/build/raspberry#advanced

I have not heard about anyone using the Cubieboard but hopefully someone else has. The information provided on https://www.mysensors.org/build/orange might be useful if the Cubieboard is similar to the Orange Pie.

oh, and in case you haven't already, see the ./configure --help text about the most common NRF24 defines; you might not need the advanced build options.

Thank you, @mfalkvidd. Ihave a little troubles with correct defining gpios from Cubie. In fex file the gpios defines is:
[gpio_para]
gpio_used = 1
gpio_num = 2
gpio_pin_1 = port:PH07<0><default><default><default>
gpio_pin_2 = port:PH15<6><default><default><default>
in sys/gpio:
[root@Archey boot]# ls -ls /sys/class/gpio/
total 0
0 --w------- 1 root root 4096 Nov 21 11:58 export
0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov 18 17:01 gpio1_ph7 -> ../../devices/platform/gpio-sunxi/gpio/gpio1_ph7
0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov 21 11:54 gpio2_ph15 -> ../../devices/platform/gpio-sunxi/gpio/gpio2_ph15
0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Nov 18 10:45 gpiochip1 -> ../../devices/platform/gpio-sunxi/gpio/gpiochip1
0 --w------- 1 root root 4096 Nov 18 16:52 unexport

When i define in configure: --my-rf24-ce-pin=1 --my-rf24-cs-pin=2 build is ok, but test failed with error:
Nov 21 11:58:15 ERROR Could not open /sys/class/gpio/gpio1/direction[root@Archey MySensors]#
when i define --my-transport=nrf24 --my-rf24-ce-pin=gpio1_ph7 the build failed wirh error:
./drivers/RF24/RF24.cpp: In function 'void RF24_ce(bool)':
<command-line>:0:16: error: 'gpio1_ph7' was not declared in this scope
./drivers/RF24/RF24.cpp:52:17: note: in expansion of macro 'MY_RF24_CE_PIN'
hwDigitalWrite(MY_RF24_CE_PIN, level);

How can i resolve this problem? Please help.

I just see for another app using nrf24 on cubieboard
and funcrtion to use nrf24 have GPIO defining is RF24 radio(SUNXI_GPB(10), SUNXI_GPB(11), "/dev/spidev0.0");
GPIO set using this style: SUNXI_GPB(10), this type of gpio defined in #include "gpio_sun4i.h" file. Maybe this specific defining in ARCHLINUX ARM distro.

In case someone can help @артем-тихонович, please post the answer in https://forum.mysensors.org/post/95304 so we don’t unnecessarily discuss the same thing in separate threads.

I get weird errors when "make"ing. Branch master.
My command:

Can someone better versed help?

Could be same as https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/10036/unable-to-compile-raspberry-pi-gateway-when-signing-enable

MasMat

@mfalkvidd It sure looks the same. I did a fresh git clone to update my gateway, so shouldn't it be fixed? From what appears on github it looked fixed..
EDIT appears fixed in development branch. But not master?

Yes that is correct

Robert Król

hi,
is it possible to conect NRF24 to SPI1 channel on RBpi3?
(i mean pins 26, 35, 36,38,40)??

mfalkvidd

Welcome to the forum @robert-król
I have not tried it myself, but I beleive https://forum.mysensors.org/post/76079 shows how to do it.

Hello

Is it possible to redefine pin used for DI00 with rfm69 (with configure option for example) ?
Indeed, DI00 is on pin 22 on raspberry, and pin 2 on arduino.
But with NRF, pin 2 on arduino is for IRQ, which is connected to pin 15 on raspberry.

So if it was possible to force pin 15 for DI00, we could use adaptator card like this one https://www.mysensors.org/hardware/nrf2rfm69.

Hi, just build an Ethernet gateway on a raspberry pi B+ following the instructions on this site. And it works! I'm running raspbian stretch lite and used the master branch. No issues. I use the RFM69 radio and this gateway has the HW model. I did have to update al my nodes to use the new RFM69 drivers but that was clearly mentioned in the article.
I have two questions:

In this section :

log_pipe=0
log_pipe_file=/tmp/mysgw.pipe

Is this correct, I think there should be a 1 to enable this type of logging.

When a new version of mysensors is released, how do I update the gateway version on the raspberry pi?

And here is a picture of my work:

Thanks for the effort you put into this project!

kted

Has the issue with RFM automatic transmission control been addressed?

Rolo6442u

@kted Can you give me a pointer to the details of this issue? I'm willing to do some tests and report back my findings. Some info about my configuration, I have 5 nodes at this moment, all battery feeded, they are sending only nodes. They all work but they have a interval of several minutes between sending. The gateway is connected to Domoticz running on another Raspberry PI.

kted

@rolo6442u I built an Raspberry gateway using an RFM69 radio, to replace one built around a NodeMCU.
All nodes are transmit only, and using the latest stable API.
I noticed that all sensors were using max TX power after the first couple of transmissions, although they were respecting the ATC setting before, and were using minimum power most of the time.
Now I am concerned about battery life, so I switched back to the NodeMCU gateway, waiting for a fix.
I'll put together a temporary net, with a RPi0 gateway and a single node later, to show some real data, if you need any more information.

Rolo6442u

@kted I wil do some tests to check if I see this behavior. Just build a simple test node with a pushbutton, on 2 AA batteries. This node has the low power W radio module. How did you discover/measure that the max TX power was used?
