@drock1985 I guess your switch string should be as follows, #Switches (Lights) switch 1: platform: mqtt state_topic: "mygateway1-out/2/1/1/0/2" command_topic: "mygateway1-in/2/1/1/0/2" name: "test1" payload_on: "1" payload_off: "0"

@Alphalove I highly recommend itead products, especially for those just getting into MySensors. They remove alot of the pitfalls that electronic noobs (such as myself) encounter when building their first sensor nodes. I used the RMini to build my first relay and it could not have been easier. Many of the troubleshooting problems posted on the forum have to do with setting up relays and these boards eliminate many of those issues. I also recommend the nano shield from itead to any entry level electronics noobs for setting up early sensor nodes who are not ready for intricate soldering. It provides a nRf socket and a power jack and breaks out all of the nano pins with individual power and ground headers. Just plug in a nano and nRf and program from USB and power the entire setup through a single jack - perfect for beginners.

Thanks for this input, please can you share which kind of relay i have to use ?

The distance sensor is supported in the beta version of Domoticz

@kunall , do you have a wiring diagram for this? I am having some issues with my relay module (but i think this is to do with it being 3.3v)

@dias I want a code with 2 relays and 2 pir You got to get started coding then :) If you bump into problem you can ask questions here.

@hek said: Does the repeater send any sensor data itself? The dashboard "last update" only reflect data coming from the repeater. No, all it is is a repeater. The only node that could send its signal through it is my doorbell which won't send anything until the doorbell is pressed, so I guess that all makes sense. I only have one sensor that is communicating all the time, which is my garage door switch which also sends temp values. The funny thing is that it is this switch that is the most reliable and ALWAYS works the instant I ask it to. the relay switches that I have turning operating some lights, that is the only thing I have them doing and there are times that I am having to repeatedly press there button on the dashboard to finally get the relay to work.

I need your help pls :/

@gadu String totalProjectSuccess = itWorks + wifeIsHappy; :)

@Shivanand-Chanderbally I recently finished a node using the acs712 and found it to be very sensitive to nearby magnetic fields. It is best to have it as far away from these as you can.

@BulldogLowell Yes, all is working, thanks. If you want to use this code for reference it is fully functional.

@C.r.a.z.y. yeah.... those are VERY bouncy. are you interrupt triggering or just using a state change? post your code, let's make sure you have it de-bounced enough.

@Dwalt oh wow.. thanks so much.. i was waiting for you to get back to me but never saw this post.. and i just happened to stumble on it when i was looking to see if you had been back on the forum or not. I'm good with the hardware side of things and can shell script and do windows scripting. but still have not learned this coding yet. i have all the hardware for the 433 stuff. i even got the RF stuff to work (on my RPI2) and sniffed all my codes i could just never get it to work with my arduino stuff. likely the code, so i'm excited to give your code a go. Thanks!

I have it ,look to my project.. project from example directory working .. but if power on node then register to gateway but not send actual state of relay .. I do it ..

Hi again I think so to, here is the new code. Scene_Controller_6_buttons_and_5_Relays.ino I reduced the relays to 3, and all the devices is in vera, but the relay status update is stile slow / not happing The scene controller has now child id = 0 and the relays 1-3.

Be aware that sensor need to have 20 consecutive failed transmissions before starting to look for a new relaying node.
