MYS 1.1 pcb has now got a lower price.
If you by 5 or more boards the price is 2$ / board.

@pboye look at http://www.sa2avr.se/mys-1-1/ under parts list.

It all depends on what sensor or actuator you are going to connect.
I chose a basic assortment of resistors to get you started and be able to build all examples on www.mysensors.org.
As this question have come up before am I going to write down some examples on http://www.sa2avr.se -
Very useful PCB.
Had a question before placing the order for the pcb.
What is the pitch for the male/female headers and the screw terminals ?
Is it 2.54 mm (0.1") for header and 5.08 mm (0.2") for terminals ?
Thanks -
@activemind All headers are 2.54 mm and the screw terminals are 5.0 mm.
-
Excellent. Thanks for your response.
Also, you mentioned LED driver like PCB. I would be VERY interested in something like that. Do you have a thread which I can follow and maybe add in my cents or two?

@activemind
No I dont have a thread on the subject yet.
I have a prototype but it contains errors I have to correct before it is useful. -
Can you please start a thread on it so that people can take a look at what you are planning and provide input so that it can be generic and useful to a lot of people.
I also have a couple of requests/requirements that I would like to add.
It doesnt make sense to add them here and pollute this thread where that info would be lost.

Hello,
Are everybody ok with 5v arduino and 662k on U1? My sensor node refuse to work.
But on the breadboard everything is ok.
It looks like the problem is in radio power. On breadboard i used 2 different step down convertor board, but both of them was on AMS1117 the power was 3.264 and 3.287.
And on MYS 662k give 3.324. I tried to use capacitors 4.7uF - 100uF, without result.
I also tried to change to another 662k from the pack. But it shows the same result.Could you give me any suggestion ?

@hek I had the same problem. The sensor was received by the gateway but not vice versa. In the end I found out that the power level of the gateway is not set to max by default. After changing this to max everything worked fine. Is there a reason for this default?
As there are always the same problems here popping up in the forum: how about setting up a FAQ page? -
I had NRF24L01+PA+LNA Antenna version on the gateway. And simple NRF24L01+ on node.
Today I tried to set GW PA Level to hight by changing MyConfig.h. After this I tried to change to another simple radio module./*** * Configure Sensor Network */ #define RF24_CHANNEL 84 //RF channel for the sensor net, 0-127 #define RF24_DATARATE RF24_250KBPS //RF24_250KBPS for 250kbs, RF24_1MBPS for 1Mbps, or RF24_2MBPS for 2Mbps #define RF24_PA_LEVEL RF24_PA_MAX //Sensor PA Level == RF24_PA_MIN=-18dBm, RF24_PA_LOW=-12dBm, RF24_PA_HIGH=-6dBM, and RF24_PA_MAX=0dBm #define RF24_PA_LEVEL_GW RF24_PA_MAX //RF24_PA_LOW //Gateway PA Level, defaults to Sensor net PA Level. Tune here if using an amplified nRF2401+ in your gateway. #define BASE_RADIO_ID ((uint64_t)0xA8A8E1FC00LL) // This is also act as base value for sensor nodeId addresses. Change this (or channel) if you have more than one sensor network.But result is the same. Works great on breadboard. But fail on MYS board.
@hek how could i check the problem in GW radio ? Is it possible to fix?
Could you give me some advice? I`m new to mysensors so it will be great for me if you could help me :)

@NewFolk
Hard to say. Usually it helps switching power source and/or fiddle with capacitors.@Heinz
Before lowering default power level on gateway we had much more support from people who were taking out too much power from their Nano Arduino (+PA+LNA) which resulted in failed transmissions. So of two bad things this is the best (for most people).
There is a troubleshooting section on the main site. Problem is most people don't read it before posting. Gladly accept more things to add to that list.
