I'll admit a newbie at this. but I"m about beyond frustrated. I've been trying to get my "Vera Edge" Serial gateway up and running. I had it working, using a nano ATmega328 w/FTDI chipset. So that was great! All your posts were very helpful! So I decided to move forward and start building my sensors. The first sensor I built was a motion sensor also using a nano ATmega328. So I got it up and running, communicating with the gateway, and than the Vera controller dropped it and I kept get the same error message, Device not ready, "LUA Startup Failure.
If you all have any another ideas on what could be causing this I could sure use your help!
Thanks
@epierre You can use a Peltier element to power this board. Like this one:

@kimot I am not handling that situation. I'm taking for granted ssr will do his job. Maybe there's some ssr safety topic I'm unaware? Suggestions for a v3.0 are welcome.
About the temperature measuring... I use two sensors. The one in the board protects electronics from temperatures beyond design (60°C). It's near the ssr because the ssr's derating curve is the most limiting condition.
The control sensor is placed in the bottom of the heater. It connects to the board through a 3 pin header connector.
@gohan said in Arduino Pro Mini Shield for RFM69(H)W:
If I remeber right that pin is used as input so the RFM69 is not receiving any 5v signal. In addition there are people claming they have the RFM69 module working on 5v on data pins and 3.3v on vcc, but I hardly suggest to do it.
thank you just what i thought .
about direct 5v on data...well... i seen a big red sign saying n :DONT do it! lol
Level converters are so cheap...that i ordered 5 or 10 thoguether with rfm69 board.
sorry about hijack this topic, i though i was on general discussion
