Hi John,
appLog.txt
I also tried using datatype string but it doesen't work. Meanwhile I have studies the log files more detailed and found the following behavior:
when defining the device skeletal and when updating the derived device (first approx. 25 lines in the log file V_STATUS is declared as string with values 51 resp. 52 as specified in the web interface. The entity is "Modul 433 MHz".
Later on, when using the toggle switch in the web interface the value has changed in the decription in the log file (see line 164 or 185) value has been changed to on/off. With this definition it seem that the mysensors-Plugin is feeded has been changed from the specified values.
My conclusion is that the change is taking place somewhere outside the mysensors-plugin.
By the way, if I change the type to string do I have to use quotation marks in the web interface?
Thanks a lot for your support.
Martin
i think i finally get it.
It is impossible... well the only way to let nodes communicate with each other is when a gateway is available (directly or trough other nodes) when the node is starting up.
This forum discussion is explaining me the most..
a solution may be.. transform the node that is always on to an gateway. And use antoher channel.. Sidenode; then you can't tell the controller what the status is.
Is there realy no way that this can supported? Node to node comunication without the need of an gateway inside the network? Skipping the registration and just send the message around.
perhaps i will dive into the source one day and change the registration behavior.
Thanks anyway for the help and the very fast responding.
Well, sure enough we work on sensors but more related to home automation. Industrial automation requires higher quality stuff and usually the sensor types are different.
About other forum start searching "industrial automation forum" there are some coming out, also I bet there are some in your specific country too. Communities are everywhere

up !
Could anyone help me to configure domoticz & mysensors in order to control analog RGB led strip ?
Is this option working?
Or perhaps a RGBW strip...

@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
@jkandasa
Thank you for the update. I will use this controller in production in few days. Eactly what I want. For non-msensors devices I Will use node-red as glue !
This list seems the most complete list of available Home Automation Software and not only open-source and not only for MySensors.
I have some proposals:
is it possible to add voting here to see, who has selected what software and see what is the most popular HA platform?
OpenRemote seems to be more commercial, than open source. In free version it's so limited, that almost unusable.
You can add some more Commercial Software in the list, but not sure how they can support mysensors:

-- Iridium Server http://www.iridiummobile.net/server/
