VS838 IR receiver led anyone got it working with mys?
-
@electrik Baud rate is OK for mysensors as I see the initial presentation sequence, but I don't see anything in the serial monitor when pressing a button on the remote with the above code. If I just use the remote code without all the mysensors/ights lines then it works, but the baud rate is then 9600.
I tried adding Serial.begin(9600) to setup, but that didn't cure the issue.
Maybe I need to set 9600 in mysensors.h and try again. There's a big storm lashing us here at the moment, so I won't be going out today! -
Hi,
I can get the sample IRrecord working, so it is not HW issue. But when I add my mys code I get no output in the serial monitor. Here is my code just I case I made some huge error ;)

A fresh pair of eyes might help me see the light (no pun intended) ;)
@skywatch said in VS838 IR receiver led anyone got it working with mys?:
What library are you using? This one https://github.com/z3t0/Arduino-IRremote ?
-
Ah okay
So perhaps one of the devices you add in setup cause it to stop there.
For example the lightmeter
We have the same storm I think 😉@electrik Pretty windy to say the least! I have not had time to look into this today as I had hoped....soon I hope.
@Yveaux Yes, that is the one. It is a simple example that works on it's own and yet when added to the mys sketch it seems to not detect presses of the IR remote. Maybe a conflict somewhere?

@skywatch What Arduino and hardware connection are you using?
The sketch suggests "5V pro mini" and IR receiver connected to D8 (?) but sketch defines RECV_PIN = 6...
Also, you could try connecting a LED to a free PWM output pin and pass this pin as second parameter to "IRrecv irrecv(RECV_PIN, LED_PIN);" (ref https://github.com/z3t0/Arduino-IRremote/blob/master/irRecv.cpp#L110) so the LED flashes when data comes in.

@Yveaux Thanks for the assistance- I am using 5V pro-mini and it works as a stand alone with the IRremote example with IR Rx LED on D6. I tried D8 and D6 but same results (in the demo it is pin 11 and that would conflict with the nrf pins). I have D4 for data if needed already in the sketch (but no led as it won't be needed).
I have tried without the lightmeter BH1750 and still the same results. I also tried with MYS Debug commented out and still the same.
After your post I tried....
int blinkpin = 4; int RECV_PIN = 6; IRrecv irrecv(RECV_PIN,blinkpin);No output to the serial monitor - I will try again tomorrow when I have (hopefully) had a good nights sleep!

I just noticed a 'delay(100);' in the code above. It shouldn't be there, so will change it to 'wait(100);' and see if that was the problem - A new day a new try!
Well that wasn't the issue and I successfully combined the IRreceive and BH1750 sketches and all worked as expected. So something is happening when MySendors is involved, the question is what? - I'll continue to think on this and see what else I can think to try.

@electrik At compilation I get the following....
Sketch uses 21718 bytes (70%) of program storage space. Maximum is 30720 bytes. Global variables use 1207 bytes (58%) of dynamic memory, leaving 841 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.It looks OK to me, but I have been wrong before (and will be again, probably quite soon ) ; ).
I have 2 other nodes that will also require IR Tx/Rx between them so will try and build them this weekend and see if I get the same issue.
-
You could also add debug prints at specific points so you find out where the code still runs.
edit To me the memory looks fine. Only if use a lot of stack it could give trouble, but it seems enough space is available
@electrik It seems that the IR if statement is never actioned.
I added
Serial.println("Enabling IRin"); irrecv.enableIRIn(); // Start the receiver Serial.println("Enabled IRin");To setup and that seems to be OK....

Also tried input pins D2.4,6,8 and all show the same lack of doing what they should!
Very strange! -

BTW. Passing a LED pin to the constructor as status indicator doesn't seem to work, or my eyes are just too slow :smirk:

BTW. Passing a LED pin to the constructor as status indicator doesn't seem to work, or my eyes are just too slow :smirk:
@Yveaux I cannot thank you enough for doing this to try and help me out. It is really kind of you.
I am using 1.8.9 IDE as I had issues with 1.8.10 (as did others). Also I notice that you have forced 57600 as the baud rate in the sketch. Is this the magic bullet I wonder as I left mine at the default 115200 setting. I can't imagine why it would make a difference though.
I will be trying it shortly and will report back with anything I find.
I owe you a beer for sure! ;) -

I didn't encounter any issues with 1.8.10 so far, but I don't expect it will make a difference in your case

57600 is the default baud rate at 3v3 for pro mini iirr. This might be related to when using the internal oscillator and the frequency errors introduced by it. But pro mini uses an external crystal so I have to dig the datasheets to know for sure. Maybe some other forum member knows it by heart...

Great! That I will remember :laughing:

@Yveaux Your code works.....until I add it to mine and then it stops working for some inexplicable reason that will drive me insane I think. ;)
I copied across your code line by line and still it refuses to 'see' any IR commands being received.I have tried excluding the watchdog, excluding the bh1750, adding arduino.h and excluding wire.h and none of those make any difference.

@skywatch Maybe the cause lies outside your sketch; Are you using MySensors 2.3.2? Or do try with Arduino 1.8.10

@Yveaux Ihave 2 issues that I have identified, but can't work out the cause.
Issue 1 - No IR received seems to be caused by thise section of code. Commenting it out and it works as expected (but of course will never transmit).....
if (newcodeRX == 1 || lightrequest == 1) { irsend.sendNEC(INcode, 32); newcodeRX = 0; lightrequest = 0; }Second issue, is when receiving IR is working I cannot do anything useful with it. I have tried 2 methods to get a value and perform a function with it and both fail. See the 2 methods tried here......
decode_results results; if (irrecv.decode(&results)) { Serial.print("IR Received... "); Serial.println(results.value, HEX); IRin = (results.value, HEX); Serial.print(" IRin... "); Serial.println(IRin); irrecv.resume(); // Receive the next value } if (IRin == 0xFFA25D) { lights = 1; Serial.print("Lights ON... "); } if ((results.value, HEX) == 0xFFE21D) { lights = 0; Serial.print("Lights OFF... "); }I need to eat now, will get back to this later on......
