battery level doesn't appear ?

[Xander]

"Battery Level" is a internal message.
See: http://www.mysensors.org/download/serial_api_15
This means it is going to the gateway and nobody knows what the gateway is doing with it...
Please correct me if I am wrong.

[sundberg84]

I have several nodes reporting battery level to Domoticz.

hello,
here is logs from gateway

Is there a documentation to understand better ?

Can you post your sketch here?

You can also restart your Node and then it will send all data again like, Sketchname, version and also all childs

@flylowgofast
Look ok

[AWI]

@flylowgofast for information on the logs take a look at the debug topic

[flylowgofast]

My real problem is not to send battery level. I try to do that because after 24 or 48 hours my node stop sending messages . So, I hoped that was a way to make it awake !

[AWI]

@flylowgofast From what I read from your sketch you seem to do some high voltage / current switching. Especially the radio doesn't like all kinds of electronic disturbances (emc etc.) To avoid lockups you need to pay special attention/separate power supplies (if you haven't done already).

[flylowgofast]

Hello AWI,

Thanks for your reply, yes my node trigs 5 triacs. I use snubber, regulator, capacitor. And ond the other hand, all commands to the node work properly ? just battery level doesn't work and after several hours NRF24L01 stop to work.
I would like to reset NRF24L01 but with MySensors we don't have direct access to it anymore. Perhaps there is a way to reset the sketch globaly ?

thanks for your help

It would have been nice if you had wrote this in your first post.:disappointed:
So everyone could focus on the main problem

[flylowgofast]

Hello @flopp ,

Sorry I was myself focus on this second problem that's interesting to solve too ?
At the end twice aren't solve ! :disappointed:

[flylowgofast]

Hello all,

At the end, I choose to do a software reset every 24 hours. This solution is very bad for me but it works !!

bye

[sundberg84]

@flylowgofast One simple thing can be to move the radio away a bit and see if that helps. Its as AWI said probably interferance power-radio.

[flylowgofast]

Hello @sundberg84,
I already considered this idea but my node have been running perfectly for two days before failed. So I think, power consideration are not the problem. I can trigg on and off my shutters many and many times without problem.
