openHAB 2.0 binding

[andreacioni]

Hi @Gustafsson,

Have you read the readme? Readme . Probably you have not configured things? See the readme on how to do that :)

[Gustafsson]

@andreacioni That's exactly what I did.

Things

Bridge mysensors:bridge-eth:gateway [ ipAddress="192.168.254.228", tcpPort=5003, sendDelay=200 ]
        door    frontDoor       [ nodeId="102", childId="4" ]
}

Items

Text    frontDoor       "Door"  { channel="mysensors:door:gateway:frontDoor:tripped" }

Sitemap

sitemap MySitemap label="Main Menu" {
        Frame {
                Text item=frontDoor
        }
}

This is how everything looks like now. I get the door item green in habmin but still the red cross on the gateway. The door item dosn't show me if it's open or closed.

You are missing the opening brackets

Bridge mysensors:bridge-eth:gateway [ ipAddress="192.168.254.228", tcpPort=5003, sendDelay=200 ] {
door frontDoor [ nodeId="102", childId="4" ]
}

[Gustafsson]

@gonzalonal sorry, I missed it when I pasted in my code here, so there is in fact a { in my code. Any other ideas?

I have a problem with adding one of my nodes.
My temp en hum nodes are working perfectly, but i try to add a Light Level node. The sensor is sending the amount of Lux and not the percentage:

18:14:59.572 [DEBUG] [g.mysensors.protocol.MySensorsReader] - 0;255;3;0;9;TSP:MSG:READ 1-1-0 s=0,c=1,t=23,pt=3,l=2,sg=0:3
18:14:59.572 [DEBUG] [g.mysensors.protocol.MySensorsReader] - 1;0;1;0;23;3
18:14:59.574 [ERROR] [g.mysensors.protocol.MySensorsReader] - (java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not update state, because callback is missing) on reading from serial port, message: class org.openhab.binding.mysensors.protocol.serial.MySensorsSerialReader

It is using CHILD_ID_LIGHT inside the skechts. Is this light level node supported?

@FutureCow said:

18:14:59.572 [DEBUG] [g.mysensors.protocol.MySensorsReader] - 1;0;1;0;23;3

According to this: https://www.mysensors.org/download/serial_api_20

V_LIGHT_LEVEL	23	Uncalibrated light level. 0-100%. Use V_LEVEL for light level in lux.	S_LIGHT_LEVEL
V_LEVEL	37	Used for sending level-value	S_DUST, S_AIR_QUALITY, S_SOUND (dB), S_VIBRATION (hz), S_LIGHT_LEVEL (lux)

Your node should send "1;0;1;0;37;3 if I'm not mistaken.

The light level message is supported by the binding.

Small update to the progress:

1. Expert mode: I've added a special thing that will allow rule based parsing and sending of MySensors messages. If the binding is limiting your creativity you are now free to go. ;-) You are now able to combine/adapt rules like in this Thread with the easy process of thing/item/sensor configuration. I've added a description to the Wiki. This may solve some problems mentioned above with sensors requesting information like pulse count.

2. Last week the OH2 core team has released beta4 of OH2. I've tested the binding against the current beta and it is working fine.

3. I've created a PR against the official openhab2-addons repository. I'm now awaiting feedback and hope to introduce the MySensors binding as part of OH2.

Great job @Timo!

[gonzalonal]

Great news to hear @TimO .
I will be testing the binding in a couple of hours. It's really usefull the new RAW messenger things.
Thanks!

Hi all, i am new in mysensors, but i have problem with install this plugin to OpenHab2.0 i tried versions 2.0 and 2.0b4 but i couldn't see this plugin in OpenHab2, i tried with RPi B, RPi3 with Raspian Jessie, and with Windows 10. But all with the same result.

I placed org.openhab.binding.mysensors-2.0.0.SNAPSHOT.jar into addons directory, but i can't se it in OpenHab.

Can anyone help me?

[TimO]

@xlibor Did you follow the instructions on the wiki and installed serial transport first? Is there a log file entry? How did you install OH2? Debian Package or Zip File?

[xlibor]

This post is deleted!

[xlibor]

@TimO Yes, i follow instruction on wiki and install serial transport sucesfully. I tried both types, first zip file and next package, but both with the same result :-(

In log file is nothing about mysensors or any error.

Now i downloaded again from github and now all works without any problem. But i don't know where was problem.

Hey All. Newbie alert here. I love the work you all do on here and this project is so exciting. I'm hooked after 2 weeks of 'fettling' and building sensors.

I've hit a brick wall though. after struggling with openhab1 I decided to make the leap straight to openhab2. Although in early days of testing it seems immediately abit more user friendly.

What I've done so far...
RaspberryPi3 is acting as controller with openhab2 installed and running fine. bindings to TV and Nest thermostat all working lovely.

Clone arduino Uno's with capacitors added for radio with NRF24 radio cards

Created GatewayW5100 gateway using the mysensors library sketch for it and set static IP to 192.168.0.11 (Openhab2 is set to 192.168.0.10) and my router gives DHCP from 192.168.0.20 up

created a temp and humidity sensor node and a node with a relay to turn a lamp on (both from mysensors library). Tested radio on all before moving ahead.

Installed the mysensors binding on OH2

Added a ethernet gateway

disabled startup connection check as it kept failing to initialise and showed as offline

Tried auto discovery of nodes... NOTHING

Tried setting node ID manually on the arduinos.. Still NOTHING, even if i add a thing manually to OH2.

I'm hoping i'm doing something stupid and its an easy fix.. Any pointers for a newbie??

D.

@daxjones

Have you tried to reach your gateway with telnet?

telnet 192.168.2.11 5003

Does it respond? Do you see the messages from the node arriving?

Have you enabled debug output of the binding like described in the wiki? What does the log say?

[Fleischtorte]

Hi@TimO

first, thanks for your awesome work :+1:
On the weekend i switched from OH1 to OH2 and your binding is working just out of the box :)
Im only missing the IR_Send and the V_TEXT sensor to integrate all of my sensors :(
could you integrate them in your binding?

[TimO]

Thanks @Fleischtorte!

There already was a request for IR and I've added one for V_TEXT.

https://github.com/tobof/openhab2-addons/issues

@andreacioni has done some serious refactoring of the code. After looking in the refactoring I'll add the missing sensors.

[Meshx86]

I have the following setup:

1. MQTT Gateway on Wemos D1 mini (ESP8266)
2. Node on Arduin pro mini

i can't get the openhab binding to distribute address to the nodes, in things in openhab there is no option for MQTT Gateway to add, what is the procedure ?

Cheers

[Qu3Uk]

@Meshx86 the openhab binding doesnt support MQTT as far as I know.

If you are using the MQTT binding then you need another controller/method to provide the internal functions for my sensors. I use NodeRed workflow to listen for ID requests and it provides them.

Or static assign them in the node stretch.

@TimO: Thanks to you this weekend, while kids slept or napped, I managed to setup RPi gateway/controller with NRF24 and OH2.
Following the OH2 install instructions caused me some trouble, not sure why, but following your install instructions it came right up.
Thank you for the time and effort here.
