Raspberry GPIO NRF24l01+ make error

[sj44k]

Checked the wires 5 times .. all looks well. CE is on pin 15
Arduino should also be ok, I get error messages (Check wires) when it's connected differently

(Heres the Arduino mega pinout as I used it
http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/249/arduino-mega-sensor-shield-2/2 )

I have an Uno ordered but at this moment I am stuck to 1 arduino
I do have an extra Pi which I could use ..

By the way, where would I receive the information on my pi in this example (in case it would work)
?
in the screen where I started the
./PiGatewaySerial

Or in a cat /dev/pts/1 ?

[Vladut Grecu]

Move the pin on 22. The actual 22 pin not gpio22. Full restart the pi.

I think you can cat the /dev/ttyMySensorsGateway. In the way I use it(with pimatic) all the commands are logged.

[sj44k]

Tried that too, not working. But I now see why you asked that my output when starting PiGatewaySerial shows :

CE Pin           = Custom GPIO25

So that needs to be harware pin 22

This picture helped a lot and makes now that I am 100% sure my Rpi is hooked up correctly.

:s: must be overseeing something realy simple / stupid .. :/s:

Guess it must be the Arduino Mega causing the issue, back to my drawingboard .. will keep you posted

[edit]

Just found an interesting SPI reference picture for my Arduino Mega

My Pinout seems to be ok on the SPI side, just need to check CE / SE in regard to the scketch/libraries I am using.

Radio 1 GND Paars Arduino GND
Radio 2 3v3 Blauw Arduino 3,3v
Radio 3 CE Groen Arduino 48
Radio 4 CS Geel Arduino 49
Radio 5 SCK Oranje Arduino 52
Radio 6 MOSI Rood Arduino 51
Radio 7 MISO Bruin Arduino 50

YEAH !
It works !! thanks for pointing me in the right direction !
Arduino needed the right scketch uploade (I messed so much with it I needed to go back which I just did)

As a reference for all who are trying to get this to work.

Use this pinout for the RPI B+
Radio 1 grijs GND Rpi 25
Radio 2 paars 3v3 Rpi 17
Radio 3 blauw CE Rpi 22
Radio 4 groen CS Rpi 24
Radio 5 Geel SCK Rpi 23
Radio 6 oranje MOSI Rpi 19
Radio 7 Rood MISO Rpi 21

Arduino Mega
Radio 1 GND Paars Arduino GND
Radio 2 3v3 Blauw Arduino 3,3v
Radio 3 CE Groen Arduino 48
Radio 4 CS Geel Arduino 49
Radio 5 SCK Oranje Arduino 52
Radio 6 MOSI Rood Arduino 51
Radio 7 MISO Bruin Arduino 50

I used the Libs mentioned in the post above by Vladut Grecu :
https://github.com/mysensors/Raspberry

I used this Temperature sketch :
http://www.mysensors.org/build/temp

Before I did got the Temp sketch operational I needed to clear my EEprom :
http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/EEPROMClear

/*
 * EEPROM Clear
 *
 * Sets all of the bytes of the EEPROM to 0.
 * This example code is in the public domain.

 */

#include <EEPROM.h>

void setup()
{
  // write a 0 to all 512 bytes of the EEPROM
  for (int i = 0; i < 512; i++)
    EEPROM.write(i, 0);
   
  // turn the LED on when we're done
  digitalWrite(13, HIGH);
}

void loop()
{
}

Than we need to edit the sketch a bit due to the fact that the Rpi gateway DOES NOT hand out the Node ID's automaticly, and the Sketch is not Arduino Mega compatible so :

Set the Node ID manualy add

gw.begin(NULL,10,false);

Make sure the sketch is compatible with the Arduino MEGA pins (as published abover here)
Change Line 12 in the sketch :

MySensor gw;

into

MySensor gw(48,49)

Than compile and hook everything up and upload the compiled sketch and start the Rpi (SPI enabled) and start
./PiGatewaySerial

Output should show on your Pi when you
Cat /dev/ttyMySensorsGateway

Big Thank you to @Vladut-Grecu !

Just received a great pull request for the Rapsberry created by @Holger-Meyers .

https://github.com/mysensors/Raspberry

I had it finally working on my Pi2, but its very unstable. sometimes weird values, crashes and fails.

switched to a usb serial arduino and that works great.

[Andreas Maurer]

The original code on github is a bit buggy. Thats right. But the actual code after Holger has reworked it is running well.
I am using it for nearly a month now. Nothing has crashed after Holger has looked after the reason why.

Currently I am happy with the stability.

[Sander Teunissen]

@Andreas-Maurer Could you tell me which controller you are using for your setup ?

Thanks !

[Andreas Maurer]

I am using fhem on the same PI. connected over the pseudo serial port.

[blksun813]

What is the CPU usage of PiGatewaySerial when you look at top? Mine is using 97%.

[Andreas Maurer]

It isn´t on the list :)

[blksun813]

Thanks.. Looked again today and it has calmed down.. Maybe it's just at start-up before there are any messages received or maybe something reading the Serial Port.
