Repeater node not recognizing sensors
-
I have two temperature sensors each with a specific node id (1 and 2).
They connect fine to the gateway for testing close by.I have another node set in repeater mode with the sample arduino code, I'm using the latest 1.5 code base.
I place the repeater node in another location away from the gateway along with both temperature sensor nodes. I can see the repeater in the gateway output, but do not see the temp nodes being sent from the repeater. The repeater id is 255. I was under the impression that the repeater node would automatically send the data from the sensor nodes.
Why is this not working as I though it would????Thanks, Tony

Id 255 is reserved, see "Starting up the library on http://www.mysensors.org/download/sensor_api_15
You'll have to use a lower number.
The sensors will need 5 fails to search for a new parent so if your sensors send seldom they might need some time to re-configure.

Thanks, I thin that fixed the issue. I set the Repeater node ID to 100. The Arduino sketch has the ID set to AUTO which I think initially set the Repeater Node ID to 255.
