    Hi Everyone,

    Can someone help explain why, when adding new sensors the following happens:

    In this example i just added a new relay sensor (Arduino light 1:3).

    If I then manually delete "Arduino Node 1" everything starts working:

    Thanks,

    Joseph

      Restarting Vera and refreshing your browser would probably give the same result as deleting the device..

        I've tried restarting the vera, my USB gateway and the sensor without luck. In fact if i don't manually delete the "Node 1" sensor my other sensors stop working.

        Just curious why this is happening. Other than this bug i can't believe how easy everything was to setup !

          try to flash the EEPROM

          sometimes you need to reset the radio ID, in my experience

          /*
          *
          * This sketch clears radioId, relayId and routing info in EEPROM 
          *
          */
          
          #include <SPI.h>
          #include <EEPROM.h>  
          
          void setup()  
          { 
            for (int i=0;i<512;i++) {
              EEPROM.write(i, 0xff);
            }
          }
          
          void loop()      
          { 
            // Nothing to do here...
          }

            @BulldogLowell

            Thanks i will try this over the weekend.

            I actually found a post from Hek on http://forum.micasaverde.com/index.php/topic,16170.msg158102.html#msg158102

            Which says "The -node (or -relay) device is automatically created for every Arduino in your sensor network. "

            So its interesting that i'm deleting this yet everything is still working :)
