What do "error-blinks" say?

bgunnarb last edited by

Is there any documentation available about what different "error-blinks" mean in the MySensors MQTT gateway?

I just built one based on an RPi A and it works just fine. Now and then I get error blinks, different number of red blinks. They signal failure in some way but what failure? Collision, bad reception or what?

@OldSurferDude well, the ESP8266 is limited to 4 TCP clients in arduino IDE. This can't be really increased. I did som experiments and you can set it up to 15, but after the 5th client on my web server, I got a freeze. Maybe you got something wrong. #define MY_GATEWAY_MAX_CLIENTS 2 defines how many controllers (eg Home Assistant) can connect to the gateway, not how many sensors/MySensors devices. And yes, you can have multiple TCP gateways in HomeAssistant. I got an NRF24, an RFM95 long range and a RFM95 short range gateway (all based on ESP32) on the same Home Assistant. Regards, Edi

Thanks for the answer. I meant that Mysensors has ESP32 support but only in terms of WIFI. It supports e.g. stm32 with ENC or W5500 modules - and the question is whether and how to add ESP32 support with LAN8720 module. I am not considering using ESPHOME or MQTT - I want to have native communication with the controller that implements my control schemes on its side. I try to program KC868-A16 but it does not matter - the question is whether such support can be added in a simple way.

@OldSurferDude jus request counter states from controller on each reset, worked fine with Domoticz... or save in eeprom but increase location every write, on power up/reset search eeprom for largest value stored and carry on from that location, one long integer will fit 256 times in atmega328(p) eeprom, is that long enough for you ?

Thanks, I'll keep this in mind if I decide to debug it. I realized that I am also tired of patching the gateway through to the doctor container inside an LXC so now I am looking at creating an esp gateway. Just need to check if I can find a pcb on here. Thanks again!
