Vera Edge pi v1 ethernet gateway

[urbanus]

Hi. Anybody have the above configuration working? I have compiled as per the build instructions and run the test and all seems well, no error messages etc. Vera however doesn't seem to communicate with the gateway. I can ping the Vera.
Regards

@urbanus I also note that the wiring diagram for the LED's seems to be incorrect 9or I'm not reading it correctly. Doesnt the pi switch the outputs HIGH when a GPIO pin is called? The diagram seems to feed the LED's from 3.3v and then on through the limiting resistor back to the GPIO which will be at 3.3v when high.

@urbanus this is the output from the test:

@urbanus Just looking at the config.h file - do I have to set my SSID and password in this file before I "make" ? If do is this my VERA ssid etc. or my wifi ssid?

[urbanus]

Just in case anybody visits this post with the same problems - It's now sorted and working. Basic issues were:
1 - I did not set the parameters in the MyConfig.h files correctly, especially I needed to uncomment the inclusion feature!
2 - The fritz diagram for the LED 's is incorrect, if you build the gateway with the LED's you need to switch the GPIO pins to ground not to vcc as shown.

Thanks for reporting back @urbanus

Could you share where the fritzing diagram is? Would be good if we could correct it.

Did you use MY_WITH_LEDS_BLINKING_INVERSE ?

Hi. Hope this link is okay, I'm not really sure how to do this.
https://www.mysensors.org/uploads/57c1a876f40891c215911e40/image/RPi3_status_led.jpg
It shows the GPIO pins routed to pin 1 on the pi - pin 1 is 3.3v. I followed the diagram withoit thinking the first tie and it was only when I had problems I started to think "how does this work"? taking it to ground sorted it.
Thanks
David

Hi again, I did not select the inverse feature as I was under the impression this just changes their behaviour ( i.e normally illuminated and turned off/on during tx/rx/error or normally not illuminated and turns on/off during tx/rx/error).
Thanks,
David

Thanks for explaining. I have not used the status leds myself, and from what I see the wiring in the picture is correct but maybe the code behavior has changed. I'll try to dig through the code some day sson.

@urbanus in your wiring, did you flip around the leds? (i.e. did you connect the longer pin to the gpio pins instead of to vcc?

With your wiring, are the leds on when there is no traffic?

My guess is that you have reversed the connections. Which is fine, but by default the leds will be on.
