[SOLVED] Testing Serial Gateway?
-
Hi,
Being new to Sensors, I have build my first serial gateway (Aruino Pro Mini (328P 3.3V) & NRF24L01) according to the instruction video on this site. The gateway seems to be working according to the debug log; my controller (Domoticz) also 'sees' the gateway.
0;255;3;0;9;0 MCO:BGN:INIT GW,CP=RNNGA---,REL=255,VER=2.3.1 0;255;3;0;9;14 TSM:INIT 0;255;3;0;9;22 TSF:WUR:MS=0 0;255;3;0;9;34 !TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL 0;255;3;0;9;43 TSM:FAIL:CNT=1 0;255;3;0;9;51 TSM:FAIL:DIS 0;255;3;0;9;59 TSF:TDI:TSL 0;255;3;0;9;10070 TSM:FAIL:RE-INIT 0;255;3;0;9;10078 TSM:INIT 0;255;3;0;9;10090 !TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL 0;255;3;0;9;10100 TSM:FAIL:CNT=2 0;255;3;0;9;10110 TSM:FAIL:DIS 0;255;3;0;9;10119 TSF:TDI:TSL
However, when I fire up a (DHT22) client, it does not see the Gateway.

I use 47uF capacitors, the gateway and client are 1-5m apart. I tried seperate power supply..
Any suggestions?
Is there any way I can test if the Gateway is working?Regards, Frank

Hi @frankvk, welcome to the MySensors community!
!TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL
this means that the node is unable to communicate with the radio chip. The most common cause is a mistake in wiring. Triple-check your wiring, and post photos here - often a new pair of eyes is helpful to spot mistakes.
If you haven't already, see https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/666/debug-faq-and-how-ask-for-help/ for a handy flowchart on how to troubleshoot the most common problems.

Thanks for your reply!
It appears to be a newby mistake: I overpowered the NRF24L01 radios: the FTDI board did put out 5.0V although the output Voltage selectors witch wat at the 3.3V position..
Another lesson learned today... always doublecheck !

Now that we have communication: if I run the (standard) DhtTemparatureAnd HumiditySensor sketch, the Setup() en Loop() never seem to run.. The Serial.println commands don't make it to the Serial monitor..
Am I missing something here?

@frankvk what does the debug output of the node and the gateway say?
-
Recompiled & uploaded the sektch and now I see the Temperature and Humidity values allright!
Thanks again!
