    @nca78 about my gateways: an old gateway running on MySensors 1.5 for years now. There are several nodes and sensors connected through it like temperature sensors, relays, switches. It controls my heating system with heat pump, buffering, 18 circles of floor heating, garden irrigation, alarm system, and some lights just for fun. the new gateway is a gateway to a Bluetooth network. Since MySensors has a great serial API and I have some experience with it I preferred to use it without a radio. I also think that it will be an interesting way of development and it could help to make MySensors even more popular. I had an idea to fork the library but unfortunately I don't have the experience and time to make it in good quality. But I'm sure letting developers to build connectors to different protocols is a very good idea. Catching Bluetooth messages from the air and decode them (with some reverse engineering) to send it through the MySensors gateway is relatively simple compared to the bidirectional communications. Processing some simple sensor data is a good first step.

    @dzairo search the Web for rebooting arduino from code. There are many ways each with its own (dis) advantages.

    Can you simply connect your baro sensor to relay node and see if something happens? Can you exchange hw/sw with the working (relay) node in any other way? Are both the working node and this one connecting to your repeater node 1 (parent = 1)?

    If you use the MySensors provided functions (saveState) you can store 256 bytes without overwritnig anything.

    @ricardot said in pimatic-mysensors controller plugin: @Dheeraj, Do you plan to continue to develop this plugin? I will very pleased to see a mysensors button. Thank you! I second this. And also see if we can lose the dependency on serialport 2.0.6 so that we can use Node.js > 4.9.1

    Ok, thanks. I'll try to use some extra repeaters then. Boozz

    Does this help: http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/748/manual-assigning-node-id-s-for-network-with-repeaters I agree with you that the serial messages are not perfectly documented, but realise that this site has been made (as far as I know) by a bunch of people that share their 'love' for home automation..... boozz

    Thanks hek, Did it a bit different, but probably with the result i wanted. In the repeaternode sketch I used the following line: gw.begin(NULL,4,true); This created a repeater node with node-id 4 (just an arbitrary number) In the Dallastemperature example I used: gw.begin(NULL,5,false,4) This created the sensor node with id=5, talking via repeaternode 4 to the serial gateway. This works. See the info from the temperature sensor being relayed to the serial-gateway. I haven't tried the method you suggested yet, but this sounds interesting of course. Wiil do that after Christmas I think. Boozz
