Question: reading from gateway from Linux
-
Hi Folks,
I am new to this site and would like to try your approach (I already had built arduino sensors with the radio transmitters). I don't have a "controller" but rather would like to read the values of different sensors when the gateway is connected to a Linux box through the serial gateway. I browsed through your webpages but couldn't find how to do this. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. My immediate need is to read values from a temperature sensor.
Thanks

Z.@zuru The gateway will dump info on the serial port, so you could write a script or application to parse that. The API info is here: http://www.mysensors.org/download/serial_api_15. Note that the controller also assigns node IDs so you would need to hard code them if the script or app you build does not respond to those requests.
