Replacing Radio with ESP8266 on Nodes and Gateway

jeylites 7 Mar 2016, 05:10 last edited by

Anyone here knows if we could replace NRF24L01+ or RFM69 radio to an ESP8266, both on Gateway and Nodes?

Yes you can but only with the development version. See

@andriej Hi, I had problem using the main branch mysensors/Raspberry, that because of the bit-field struct (header_s) in Sensor.h They will get packed in different order on the arduino compared to the RPi (at least with my compiler, gcc). In order to fix this I created the 1.4dev branch. It uses full bytes instead of the bit-fields, but you need (of cause) to compile both the sensors (arduino) and the gateway (RPi) using the 1.4dev branch. We need to fix this in the main branch later on (and use the same files as in mysensors/Arduino/libraries/MySensors)

@GLAB You can set the frequencies using the settings in MyConfig.h, which is in the MySensors folder. If you put any of the defines from MyConfig.h into your sketch, they will override the MyConfig.h setting for that sketch only. If you are using the RF24 radio, there are different channels which correspond to a given frequency. The default is channel 76. There is a list of typical channels in MyConfig.h. If you want to change the channel for all the sketches, change it in MyConfig.h. If you want to change it just for the sketch, add a define to the sketch. For example: #define MY_RF24_CHANNEL (84) The problem with changing the channel in a sketch is that the gateway has to be on the same channel to receive from the node. So, normally it makes sense to change in MyConfig.h because you usually want the gateway and all the nodes on the same channel. Other radio's like the RFM69 list the frequency instead of using a channel. They can be overridden in the sketch as well. You can find the defines that are needed in MyConfig.h

@ZenBlizzard in case you are measuring the output with a multimeter, you will get an averaged level, since AC current waveform should be sinusoidal and overlapped with the Vcc/2->2.56V in your case. To measure the current you need a decently high sampling and some math. #define SENSITIVITY 66 // mV/A const float readings = 5; const float alpha = 2.0 / (2 * readings + 1); for (ifor = 0; ifor < 250; ifor++) { // Voltage voltageSampleRead = analogRead(V) * vccRead / 1023 - vccRead / 2; /* read the sample value including offset value*/ voltageSampleSum = voltageSampleSum + sq(voltageSampleRead); /* accumulate total analog values for each sample readings*/ voltageSampleOffsetSum = voltageSampleOffsetSum + voltageSampleRead; // Current currentSampleRead = analogRead(I) * vccRead / 1023 - vccRead / 2; /* read the sample value including offset value*/ currentSampleSum = currentSampleSum + currentSampleRead * currentSampleRead; /* accumulate total analog values for each sample readings*/ currentSampleOffsetSum = currentSampleOffsetSum + currentSampleRead; wait(1); } voltageMean = voltageSampleSum / ifor; /* calculate average value of all sample readings taken*/ voltageOffset = voltageSampleOffsetSum / ifor; reading = (sqrt(voltageMean) - voltageOffset) * 230.0 / 1.0; // read voltage / reported voltage. voltage = round_to_dp(alpha * reading + (1 - alpha) * voltage,1); Serial.println(voltage); if (voltage < 25) voltage = 0; currentMean = currentSampleSum / ifor; /* calculate average value of all sample readings taken*/ currentOffset = currentSampleOffsetSum / ifor; reading = (sqrt(currentMean) - currentOffset) / SENSITIVITY * 1000 - currentZeroOffset; // subtract no load current. if (reading < 0) reading = 0; current = round_to_dp( alpha * reading + (1 - alpha) * current,2);
Which device I have to use to connect with accelerometer before connecting to my pc?

When connecting an accelerometer to your PC, consider its communication protocol (I2C or SPI) and the appropriate interface device, like a microcontroller (e.g., Arduino). You may also need additional hardware for voltage adjustment or signal conditioning, depending on the sensor’s specifications.

It looks like duplicate email notifications may be linked to system settings or preferences. Have you noticed if the issue happens after specific actions or changes? Investigating your notification settings might shed some light

I hope the project won't be buried due to the fact that the protocol is the basis of nippy devices (https://nippysmart.com/) I also hope that the development of mysensors won't be directed in 2 directions - one commercial only for nippy - the other for all the rest, which could result in the two versions diverging so much that they will be incompatible and the second one will simply be buried.
