Clone 2 skelets Relay and Button's

[tomrask]

Is there anyone out there who just want to give me a hand by getting this skeleton to work. I will be very happy just a little help. It could be great.

[Vladut Grecu]

Can you post the serial output of the Arduino?

@Vladut-Grecu

This is what I get from serial output

repeater started, id 1

There is something going on with you code. It tells your gateway that you only have 3 devices (0,1,2)

send: 1-1-0-0 s=0,c=0,t=0,pt=0,l=5,st=ok:1.4.1
send: 1-1-0-0 s=1,c=0,t=0,pt=0,l=5,st=ok:1.4.1
send: 1-1-0-0 s=2,c=0,t=0,pt=0,l=5,st=ok:1.4.1

I'll look into it when I get home, later this day.

thanks, I 'll be glad if you will

Please modify your sketch like this

for (int sensor=0, pin=RELAY_1; sensor<NUMBER_OF_RELAYS;sensor++, pin++) {
    // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices)
    gw.present(sensor, S_LIGHT);
    Serial.print("\nThe nr ");
    Serial.print(sensor);
    Serial.print(" relay has been presented\n");
    // Then set relay pins in output mode
    pinMode(pin, OUTPUT);   
    // Set relay to last known state (using eeprom storage) 
    digitalWrite(pin, gw.loadState(sensor)?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF);
  }

and

 for (int i = NUMBER_OF_RELAYS; i < (NUMBER_OF_RELAYS+NUMBER_OF_SWITCHES); i++)
  {
    gw.present(i, S_DOOR);
    Serial.print("\nThe nr ");
    Serial.print(i);
    Serial.print(" switch has been presented\n");
    delay(250);
  }

And post the serial output again.

From your serial output, I think that the problem is with vera.(config, etc.. I don`t use vera)
The node presents your devices and the gateway recognizes them correctly.

I guess you pressed the buttons to test them but when you press button nr 3 (child4) you got an error

send: 1-1-0-1 s=4,c=1,t=0,pt=2,l=2,st=fail:1
read: 1-0-1 s=4,c=1,t=0,pt=2,l=2:1

You either wrongly configured vera to use child 4 as something else rather than a button (and it doesn't expect for an update, even if you present it as a button and it says that is ok) or it's beyond my understanding.

I will kindly ask @hek to to take a look over what I said and verify the integrity of the code presented but before that, I'll try to do your setup and report back.

[hek]

I suggest you start simple. It is important you understand each step of the code.

• Remove loops (present each sensor separately).
• Remove debounce code (just read the digital inputs directly). They complicate things and you will better grasp what is happening without it.
• Same goes for incoming messages. Look at the incoming message and try to understand what digital output (relay) you want to set,

I could probably write the code for you. But what is the point? If you manage it yourself you'll feel like superstar. Take it in small steps and ask more questions if you don't understand what the purpose a particular line has.

Hey Hek

Thank you for your good advice. I have a little vacation here in Easter. so I got it to work with 2 door sensors maybe it's not the best looking program . but it works .
Where can I learn more about these lines, I do not understand 100 % yet :

Bounce debouncer1 = Bounce();

debouncer1.attach(BUTTON_PIN1);

digitalWrite(message.sensor-1+RELAY_1, message.getBool()?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF);

Thanks for the help .

@tomrask when you set the relays to the " last known state" the same value (1) is used for all the relays.
