    @waynehead99 Are you using the new 1.4 Lib?

      Somebody has good result in a working multisensor and wants to share his code?

      @egbertje Good Question :-) It would be nice to learn from existing working sketches..

        @waynehead99 you most likely need 1.4 Lib for the new sleep constructor. I have not used sleep on 1.3 so I do not remember what arguments you had available there.
        I have also extended sleep with an additional constructor which @hek has pulled into the release branch of 1.4 that permits you to use two external interrupts with independent triggers for sleep in addition to a timeout. Great for nodes with multiple sensors that still run on battery.

        Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

          @Mountainman ;

          Im trying your code and its almost what im looking for.
          I have two questions about it:
          1 : Is it possible that the battery info has is own child id?
          2 : Why dont you implement a light sensor like an LDR?

          I think that including LDR/light then you have the ideal multisensor ; light + temp/hum + motion + batt monitoring !
          But for now im playing with your code and try to implement light.

            Here is a version I'm currently using that makes use of interrupts so might be more suitable for a battery driven DHT/Motion multi sensor. It also includes the battery monitoring. Any feedback or improvements would be appreciated.

            #include <SPI.h>
            #include <MySensor.h>
            #include <DHT.h>

            #define INTERRUPT DIGITAL_INPUT_SENSOR-2 // Usually the interrupt = pin -2 (on uno/nano anyway)
            
            unsigned long SLEEP_TIME = F; // Sleep time between reports (in milliseconds)

            @mountainman Is there any instructions on how to wire/setup the hardware to work with your code?

              @egbertje;

              The battery percentage is associated with the parent Arduino Node in the vera UI.
              I have some LDRs ordered from Ebay so that is the next step. I had previously used the BH1750 I2C sensor in a multi sensor with the 1.3 lib but I want to debug on its own as it seemed to be giving unexpected readings.

              @codenea The instructions are pretty much from the main page although if I get a chance I try to draw it up and post some pics. My setup not very pretty yet with perf board and jumper wires. A dedicated PCB would be nice.

                Hello,

                Here is my combo to make a Home Monitoring solution:
                https://github.com/empierre/arduino/blob/master/MQv01dgi_1_4.ino

                It includes (currently on a Mega):

                • Barometer : BMP085
                • Temperature + Humidity DHT11
                • Particle sensor
                • Gas sensors MQ2 MQ6 MQ131 MQ135 TGS2600 2SH12

                To be added when stabilized:

                • Sound level in DB

                Could be added:

                • Light sensor
                • Vibration sensor
                • PIR

                  Hi guys,

                  this is a one node with publishing DS temperatures and listening for relay commands I finished and tested yesterday>
                  https://github.com/pgo-sk/mysensors/blob/master/arduino/DS_and_Relay.ino
                  feel free to comment/use/publish...

                  I combined the Dalas and Relay examples together - you have to deactivate the sleep for the relays to listen 100% of time.
                  MQTT identification on openHAB:
                  MyMQTT/20/0/V_TEMP - DS sensor(s)
                  MyMQTT/20/1/V_LIGHT - relay 1
                  MyMQTT/20/2/V_LIGHT - relay 2

                  If somebody is interested I can post the maps/items files for openHAB

                  Regards,
                  Pego
                  PS I am working on an home automation system with solar hot air panels control/solar hot water panels and all the common stuff like lights/temperatures/weather etc.. More here: https://github.com/pgo-sk/mysensors/wiki/Home-automation-using-mysensors-and-openHAB

                                  Yes :), for the sketches mentioned earlier.

                                    I could not decide yet on a platform. OpenHAB should be my next test.

                                        It runs quit stable on my old WinXP64Pro Quadcore w/many virtual machines on it.
                                        Have still some problems with the syntax of the openHAB settings, but else nice controller ;)

                                          @blacey I tried this already. This is a simple dimmer node, not RGB. It's work fine.
                                          But I would like to use a RGB colorpicker in openhab.
