Pressure Sensor Node send fails.



  • I have been trying to build a sensor node for Temp+Baro, and have been unsuccessful since last week. The message fails
    Below is the output from Serial Monitor

    req id
    send: 255-255-1-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,st=fail:

    I have researched the forum a lot and tried the below, but no success.

    • Added 10uF caps to both Node and Gateway. Also tried with 100uF caps.
    • Cleared EEPROM.
    • Changed Bootloader.
    • Changed NRF Radio
    • Tried different power source

    I have one more node with Relay and its working fine. So i guess the problem should be with the node. The node is a custom built board with Optiboot. I worked fine a couple of times and now I wont work.

    Log file for MYSController when I had the MYSBootloader and tried updating FW using OTA. 0_1453856213616_MySensors_20160127-053410.log

    I am unable to figure out the problem and seek assistance from the experienced gurus out there.

    Appreciate and help I can get.



  • I have also tried other sketch on same node and they work fine.



  • Is your controller setup to hand out ID's to the sensor nodes?
    What if you set a fixed ID?



  • @ericvdb I tried with MYSController. Set Assign ID to Auto, also tried settings up static ID, but does not seem to work.

    Can you simply connect your baro sensor to relay node and see if something happens? Can you exchange hw/sw with the working (relay) node in any other way? Are both the working node and this one connecting to your repeater node 1 (parent = 1)?
