Help needed



  • Hi guys , I'm really newby for my sensors community. I'm trying to do a little network with one distance sensor and a serial gateway,follow my configuration:
    Distance node: Arduino Pro Mini Clone + NRF24L01+(There's write on the chip) + HC-SR04.
    Serial gateway: Arduino Uno + NRF24L01+.

    So with a simple sketch implemented with only RF24 library I managed to establish a communication between the node and gateway.
    But using the mysensors library v1.5 I read "radio init fail"
    Following this thread
    http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/1728/uno-ethernet-shield-radio-init-fail-solved/22
    I seems on the serial monitor that the gateway is OK (Gateway StartupComplete) also the distance node but I can't read anything on the gateway.


  • Admin

    Are you getting the same error on both gateway and sensor node?

    Edit. ok.. didn't read the last sentence...

    You should probably start checking the wiring on the radio.



  • Ok.
    I try to explain all steps done.

    On the serial Gateway:
    Arduino UNO, NRF24L01+, 3,3 V supplied by Arduino UNO board

    1. Need set DATA_RATE on 1MPS (without I have "radio init fail") in Myconfig.h
      2)Uncomment #define SOFTSPI in Myconfig.h

    Result:

    0;0;3;0;9;gateway started, id=0, parent=0, distance=0
    0;0;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete.
    

    On the Distance Sensor :
    Configuration: Arduino Pro Mini Clone, NRF24L01+, 3,3 V supplied by Arduino UNO board

    1. Need set DATA_RATE on 1MPS (without I have "radio init fail") in Myconfig.h
      2)Comment #define SOFTSPI in Myconfig.h
    2. Comment isPVariant() check in MyTransportNRF24() (without I have "radio init fail")

    Result on the node:

    find parent
    send: 201-201-255-255 s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,st=bc:
    Ping: 3 cm
    

    I'm using the same transceiver for both boards.

    This is the transceiver :
