@sundberg84 - ok thanks, it makes sense ;). I was asking because I connected your Dimmable Led Strip daughterboard via MysX to this Easy PCB. Dimmer daughterboard is providing 5V on PIN3 (when LM2940CT voltage regulator is used on it). This would bring 5V to output of voltage regulator on Easy PCB so I disconnected PIN3 connection between dimmer daughterboard and Easy PCB. I connected PIN3 from dimmer board by wire to >3.3V power input of Easy PCB instead. Other option I'm thinking of would be not using voltage regulator on dimmer daughterboard at all but use its 12V raw voltage provided by dimmer board via MysX PIN1 (+ raw jumper on Easy PSB) and use voltage regulator (LE33) on Easy PCB only.

@LastSamurai Thanks for the image, I had the address as localhost instead of the IP of the raspberry PI, changed it and everything works now @gohan , yes, I upgraded to beta version since release doesn't have MQTT support yet.

Hello All, NodeManager v1.8 has just been released! I've opened up as usual a dedicated thread on the forum containing all the details of new release: https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/9944/nodemanager-v1-8-now-available

@maltimus - thanks, I can see the picture. frstratingly I have the Vera Edge though!

slight bump to this topic rather than starting a new one since I have some more questions Are there any example sketches for setting variables on a node? Thinking I'd want at least 2 variables. Is there a proper way for a node to report time to the controller or other nodes? This one will be powered 100% of the time so responding to messages shouldn't be a problem. I'm pretty sure I know the answer to this one but best way to set up a sketch to report the temp every X when it isn't the main function of the node. Thanks in advance.

@daulagari There are some on AliExpress. A bit cheaper than Antratek but not much. Not 100% sure you get the Uno shield adapter but it seems so. Still no big deal with the price since we only need one gateway.
