Remotes will not connect after latest compile
-
I have 3 remote nodes working off one gateway. The gateway is a ModeMCU 1.0 and remotes are Arduino Pro Minis. Radios are RFM69s. All 3 remotes have run great for about a year.
Yesterday I made a minor change in the code that reads an analog voltage on one of the remote units. I compiled the new code and received an error message that “RFM69_getReceivingRSSI()” statement should be changed to “transportGetReceivingRSSI()” so I made that changed and the code compiled.
I uploaded the new code and now that node will not connect to the gateway. The serial monitor log shows repeated TSM:FPAR:NO REPLY and then TSM:FPAR:FAIL. The other two remotes are still operating normally.I tried the troubleshooting steps including clearing the eeprom, and double checked the IDE settings, but still cannot connect. I also powered down the two working remotes and checked with MySController and all I see in the event log is
“Gateway startup complete” and “2.3.2” messages. No other nodes.I had updated my Arduino IDE since the last programming was done about a year ago, and I did not track which versions I was using then. Current versions are IDE – 2.2.1, Pro Mini board – 1.8.6, and NodeMCU board – 3.1.2, MySensors library 2.3.2.
I then decided to try monitoring one of the working remotes so I uncommented the debug statement and compiled (got the same warning about “RFM69_getReceivingRSSI()”). Now that remote will not connect either.
I appears that the problem is related to my IDE but I cannot determine what it may be.
Does anyone know what change would have triggered the “RFM69_getReceivingRSSI()” error and is it possible that that change is also causing the newly compiled code to not connect?

There are two drivers on the RFM69 which aren't compatible. Check if you are using the same one on nodes and gateway.
