Reliability ?
-
Getting started with this great product !
I have an rf node which has a led attached to it which I want to switch on and off.
When doing so 9 out of 10 times it works flawlessly. Is this acceptable or should I get 10 out of 10 times ? Node and gateway are 2 metres apart and I use the capacitors.I have the following setup:
- rf node with temp sensor and switchable led.
- rpi rf gateway with mosquitto broker and websockets enabled. (all connected through node-red)
- polymer web app with websocket connection to switch the led on and off...

Do you have any wall or any RF interference (such as microwave or hi-power appliances) in between or very close (<10cm to) the two radios?

Show the code.

My sensor is next to my home cinema system and a light dimmer. Could that be a source of the error ?

What code would you like to see ? (It is all very experimental anyway..)

@Sander-Teunissen , a light dimmer may cause some noise. How are you powering your nodes & gateway?
