openHAB 2.0 binding

[Fabien]

I try to send ORP calibration value to my sensors but it doesn't work.
NODE_ID : 10, CHILD_NODE_ID : 0
When I'm recieve ORP from my sensors it's ok :

13:55:38.216 [DEBUG] [rs.internal.protocol.MySensorsReader] - 10;0;1;0;52;996.3

But when I change the value, the value is not send :

14:09:24.051 [INFO ] [marthome.event.ItemStateChangedEvent] - orp01 changed from 40 to 50
14:09:24.266 [INFO ] [smarthome.event.ItemCommandEvent    ] - Item 'orp01' received command 60
14:09:24.266 [DEBUG] [rs.internal.protocol.MySensorsWriter] - Sending to MySensors: 10;0;1;0;0;

Item :

Number	orp01	"Redox [%.1f mV]" <faucet> (gPiscine) { channel="mysensors:waterQuality:gateway:orp01:orp"}

Sitemap :

  sitemap test label="Main Menu" { 
    Frame label="Piscine" { 
		Setpoint item=orp01 label="Calirabte ORP" minValue=0 maxValue=1000 step=10
    } 
  }

@Fabien I need a little bit more time to reproduce this behaviour. I've opened an issue here: https://github.com/tobof/openhab2-addons/issues/50

Hello everyone
I'm slowly migrating to OH2, my small MySensors network generally works fine but I see some weird behavior with the binding configuration in Paper UI.
So far it looks like "Disable network sanity check" is reversed - I'm sliding it to the left which means for me 'not disabled', i.e. 'enabled', but in the log I see "Checker thread disabled".

2017-01-11 16:50:38.405 [DEBUG] [rs.internal.protocol.MySensorsReader] - 0;255;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete.
2017-01-11 16:50:38.408 [DEBUG] [rs.internal.protocol.MySensorsReader] - 0;255;0;0;18;2.1.0

2017-01-11 16:50:48.516 [DEBUG] [col.serial.MySensorsSerialConnection] - Bridge is connected, connection skipped

Is that ok?

[TimO]

@AndrewZ Don't worry about that message, the debug log looks good. The warning is confusing and we need to change that. :-)

[AndrewZ]

@TimO Thanks, will keep it off in the GUI.

Hi @TimO

I've logged a job to include documentation about non-native OpenHAB 2.0 bindings in the official OH2 docs.

ThomDeitrich is looking to know why it's not yet in the official distro. Can provide some info?

https://github.com/openhab/openhab-docs/issues/188

[TimO]

Hey @Duncan-Pullen !

The main reason is: I'm waiting for suggestions / approval from the OH2 developers. :)

The MySensors binding has grown big and a review takes some time.

@TimO, thank you for all the effort you've put into this!

Hi everyone,
@TimO, thanks for everything you did here!

I just made the 2.0 version (code in comments of respective post) of petewill's Simple Scene Controller and discovered that a Scene Controller is not yet implemented in the OpenHAB binding. Is there a possibility that it will be implemented in the future?
For now, is it possible to get this working with CustomSensor or Text?

[TimO]

Hi @FusedHe3 !

My first thought was: that's easy, lets add this! But after a second thought ...

I see one problem with S_SCENE_CONTROLLER: how do I map this in OpenHAB?

In MySensors there is V_SCENE_ON and V_SCENE_OFF. The message contains the corresponding scene number.

In OpenHAB I've: Number, Switch, Selection ...

In OpenHAB I may choose between Scene A, Scene B and so on, but I can't select between ON and OFF. Is Scene A switched off, when I select Scene B?

I'm using scenes with a switch in OpenHAB. Something like "Christmas decoration ON". In OpenHAB I'm using a group for that gChristmasDecoration or a rule: switch light on, shutter to 33%, ..

My approach in implementing a (hardware) scene controller would be a mapping of those switches. So I would define a switch / child for every button (scene) on the controller.

I'm open for ideas on how to map V_SCENE_CONTROLLER in OpenHAB, so if you or someone else have and idea, shout it out. :D

[TimO]

Ah, by the way, I forgot to mention: SmartSleep is supported since last week.

[FusedHe3]

@TimO Thanks for the quick reply!
I do think the ON/OFF switch for every scene would be the most logical solution. In that way it's fully compatibel with the MySensors Scene Controller and you can have multiple scenes active at the same time.

Just updated my OH2 installation from snapshot to RC/beta and immediately got an error with the binding:

[ERROR] [rs.internal.protocol.MySensorsReader] - (java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "Gateway startup complete.") on reading from connection, message: class org.openhab.binding.mysensors.internal.protocol.serial.MySensorsSerialReader

But then the usual:

[INFO ] [col.serial.MySensorsSerialConnection] - Successfully connected to MySensors Bridge.
[WARN ] [col.serial.MySensorsSerialConnection] - Network Sanity Checker thread disabled from bridge configuration

What could be a problem? Do I need to perform some cleanup on my system? What exactly needs to be deleted?

[krejcarek]

I ran into trouble today by apt-get updating Openhab.

I am over redefining the Distro for Snapshot... I have 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT, Build #743 up and running.

my bundle list looks following:
204 | Active | 80 | 3.12.0.OH | nrjavaserial
205 | Installed | 80 | 2.0.0.201611221149 | MySensors Binding

Still getting these errors:
"03:17:10.911 [ERROR] [org.openhab.binding.mysensors ] - FrameworkEvent ERROR - org.openhab.binding.mysensors
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: org.openhab.binding.mysensors [205]
Unresolved requirement: Require-Bundle: org.openhab.io.transport.serial"

Any idea for next step?

[TimO]

@krejcarek please upgrade the binding to the most recent version. :-)

[AndrewZ]

@TimO what about my error? I'm on the latest version already.

[TimO]

@AndrewZ Sorry! Is it working despite the error? I need to test with RC1 myself. The error looks like it could be ignored. From time to time messages get corrupted, due to connection issues and the parser stumbles about that. But it should continue to work just fine. I suppose this is the case here, but I'll check!

[AndrewZ]

@TimO yes, it is working, but please check this one and 2nd (Network Sanity Checker thread disabled). Thank you!

[jogant]

I had the same error messages on first boot of OH. After finishing upgrade procedure and restarting OH once again error message is gone. New version of the binding is working well. No hickups at the moment.

Hi Guys
I am currently playing with a fairly fresh install of openhab2 (last weekend)
I have played with the auto-discovery function in PaperUI
Wow that's amazing :)
But i am having trouble when it comes to sitemap file : sitemap function is not included within PaperUI (as far as i know) and i need this file to configure properly my iOS app
So i have to go back to the old fashionned way and edit thing, item and map files with a text editor (which is fine)

Two questions from here:

• please prove me wrong in the way that i can discover things and configure items within paperUI and still create a valid sitemap file usable by my iOS devices
• if above not possible, is there a way to "flush" openhab things and items database as i am getting warnings about things that don't exist anymore (things previously discovered by paperUI but deleted since)
  Thanks a lot for reading
