    @cleight Your nodes should each have a unique ID. And then the child ID might be 0/1 for each one.

    Since you claimed you don't have a programming background I'll try to explain the API (as I understand it anyways) And how to get to each piece

    The message that gets passed by the radio is going to look like this

    12;6;1;0;0;36.5\n
    

    Looking at each part

    12: node-id The unique id of the node that sends or should receive the message (address) message.sender

    6: child-sensor-id Each node can have several sensors attached. This is the child-sensor-id that uniquely identifies one attached sensor message.sensor

    1: message-type Type of message sent - See table below message.command_ack_payload (I think)

    0: ack The ack parameter has the following meaning:
    Outgoing: 0 = unacknowledged message, 1 = request ack from destination node
    Incoming: 0 = normal message, 1 = this is an ack message message.isAck()

    0: sub-type Depending on messageType this field has different meaning. See tables below message.type

    36.5: payload The payload holds the message coming in from sensors or instruction going out to actuators.
    Various functions exist to get the payload

    char* getStream(char buffer) const;
    char
    getString(char buffer) const;
    const char
    getString() const;
    void* getCustom() const;
    uint8_t getByte() const;
    bool getBool() const;
    float getFloat() const;
    long getLong() const;
    unsigned long getULong() const;
    int getInt() const;
    unsigned int getUInt() const;

    So you might have a childID of 0/1 if you are only sending 1-2 items from the sensor but each sensor will have its own nodeID

    So using the example Hek provided and assuming temp is sensor 0 humidity is 1

    #define BEDROOM_NODE_ID 42
    #define KITCHEN_NODE_ID 44
    #define TEMP 0
    #define HUM 1
    float bdtemp = 0, bdhum =0, kntemp = 0, knhum =0;
    void incomingMessage(const MyMessage &message) {
       switch (message.sender) {
             case BEDROOM_NODE_ID:
                  switch (message.sensor){
                       case TEMP
                              bdtemp = message.getFloat();
                       break; 
                       case HUM
                              bdhum = message.getFloat();
                       break;
               } 
               break; 
         case KITCHEN_NODE_ID:
                  switch (message.sensor){
                       case TEMP
                              kntemp = message.getFloat();
                       break; 
                       case HUM
                              knhum = message.getFloat();
                       break; 
              } 
              break; 
       }
      updateDisplay();  
     }
    

    That will give you 4 variables bdtemp, bdhum, kntemp, knhum so you know the temp/humidity coming from 2 different sensors

    @Chaotic I understand what you are saying and have the concept down of the message being sent to the gateway. What I don't understand is the code that Hek provided and how I seperate Node ID 1 Child Sensor 0 (temp Sensor) from Node ID 1 Child Sensor 1 (Humidity Sensor)

    Also I tried the code Hek provided but I cannot use Float to store the variable as I am out of room in my sketch, I tried changing to message.getInt(); without luck.

      I was putting in an example to do just that when you responded.

      as for getInt / getFloat it should let you switch but you might lose anything after the period.

        Make sure to send the same type as you're trying to getXXX on the receiving side. No automatic conversion is done except for the getString().

          @hek This is the code I am using on the sensor side to send to LCD Node (Node 11)

          gw.send(msgHTTemp.setDestination(11).setSensor(i).set(temperature,1));
          

          And in serial monitor on node 11 I see the data being captured correctly, so I believe my issue still lies in my code on the LCD Screen side.

          read: 1-0-11 s=0,c=1,t=0,pt=7,l=5:66.2

          Here is my latest Sketch after I made changes again per Hek's suggestion, only thing is I couldn't use float as I am out of room in my sketch to hard to use INT instead for testTemp

              You forgot to initialize begin like you were told above.

              I have this in my gateway.begin

              gw.begin(getVariables, RADIO_ID);
              

              I seem to need to have it this way or Vera doesn't get Node ID 11 anymore and it gets a random generated ID. So then I put the Case statement at the bottom of my getVariables Function.

                If you send it as a float value you must use getFloat (it is transmitted as binary data). Doing atoi will get you garbled data because it is not transmitted as ascii.

                If your memory is low, I suggest you either convert and send is as a string (char *) and do message.getString()

                or

                send it as a int and just do message.getInt() on the receiving side.

                BTW the "String" class you're using is VERY memory hungry and is probably the reason for low memory an after a while probably result in crashes (it fragments memory).

                    declare the variable you're sending as int or convert it by casting

                    gw.send (msgHum.set(static_cast<int>(humidity)));

                        just switch on message.sensor (should be one of CHILD_ID_HUM, CHILD_ID_TEMP)

                          @hek said:

                          declare the variable you're sending as int or convert it by casting

                          gw.send (msgHum.set(static_cast<int>(humidity)));

                          http://www.learncpp.com/cpp-tutorial/44-type-conversion-and-casting/

                          @hek Converting my sensor to send the data as an Integer worked and it is now parsing correctly, however I also have a humidity child sensor on that node I would like to send to node 11 as well, how would I capture that in the case statement?

                            @Chaotic I missed your code earlier, thank you for this, although while compiling is it saying I am missing a colon before knhum for some reason, need to dig deeper.

                              @cleight that is what I get for coding on the fly

                              change

                              case TEMP
                              

                              and

                              case HUM
                              

                              with

                              case TEMP:
                              

                              and

                                  Ok last issue to be worked out and I think I am good to go, thanks again to @Chaotic and @hek for there assistance with my project.

                                  Last issue is with the sensor node, it sends the data to the LCD Node (node 11) but only sends the data to the gateway on boot, it will not send it to the gateway after it starts sending to Node 11. I would like it to send to both the Node and the Gateway all the time, that way Vera see the information as well as my LCD.

                                  Here is the output of the Serial Monitor, also for some reason on each temp update it sends to node 11 twice for some reason:
                                  sensor started, id 1

                                    Ok last issue to be worked out and I think I am good to go, thanks again to @Chaotic and @hek for there assistance with my project.

                                    Last issue is with the sensor node, it sends the data to the LCD Node (node 11) but only sends the data to the gateway on boot, it will not send it to the gateway after it starts sending to Node 11. I would like it to send to both the Node and the Gateway all the time, that way Vera see the information as well as my LCD.

                                    Here is the output of the Serial Monitor, also for some reason on each temp update it sends to node 11 twice for some reason:

                                    @cleight I think the easiest solution (all theory btw) would be to duplicate the message for each sensor

                                    MyMessage msgHum(CHILD_ID_HUM, V_HUM);
                                    MyMessage msgHumLCD(CHILD_ID_HUM, V_HUM);
                                    MyMessage msgTemp(CHILD_ID_TEMP, V_TEMP);
                                    MyMessage msgTempLCD(CHILD_ID_TEMP, V_TEMP);
                                    MyMessage msgHTTemp(CHILD_ID_HTTEMP, V_TEMP);
                                    MyMessage msgHTTempLCD(CHILD_ID_HTTEMP, V_TEMP);
                                    

                                    then in the setup()

                                    msgHumLCD.setDestination(11);
                                    msgTempLCD.setDestination(11);
                                    msgHTTPempLCD.setDestination(11);
                                    

                                    Then in the loop when you are doing the gw.send just do a second one for the LCD message (you shouldn't need the setDestination)
