MySensors 2.0.0 Released

DavidZH

I have now recompiled my node that was on 2.0DEV to 2.0Stable and it will not fly. So tomorrow I will recompile my gateway to see if that runs better.

I really have to get used to the new debug output though. But it give a lot more info!

I did now also update my gateway but I see two messages in the debug panel that I don't understand:
pm open,type:2 0
0;255;3;0;9;TSP:SANCHK:OK
Does anybody have an idea what that means?

I have this problem too. What does that mean?

The TSP:SANCHK:OK is a sanity check of the radio, this time it's OK. But if we fail in talking with the radio (spi failure etc) it will try to initialize the radio, and also write Fail (I believe)

It's @tekka that is the brain behind this part (and has promised to make some documentation on it :))

@tbowmo Thank you for the explanation. But what does that mean pm open,type:2 0

Hi there.
Good work.
I was using dev ver. - should I recompile all nodes and GW to 2.0.0, to use it?

Yveaux

@marekd quote from the main site : "We recommend updating both gateway and sensors to the the latest release."

AWI

@marekd To add to @Yveaux , if you are using repeaters (or nodes with the repeater functionality switched on) these also should be updated to the latest release.

Is there any plans to update the Raspberry gateway? The one where the nrf radio is connected directly to RPI gpio.
As far as i know it is version 1.4 at the moment.

I think that was someone who contributed it a while back. I remember going though the thread, and at one time someone was looking for anyone to update the 1.5 base for the signing; IIRC.

Probably best to switch to another Gateway for now.

@drock1985
Is there any pro/cons when choosing the esp gateway or the serial gateway (connected to Raspberry pi)?

@Tore-André-Rosander

Not really; depends on what your controller supports. Personally I have Home-Assistant running the latest MySensors 2.0 Wifi (ESP) gateway no problems.

@Tore-André-Rosander
for pros, I think serial gw is more secure. I mean esp is wifi, serial gw is only connected to controller. Of course controller is connected to network, but esp is just one more door directly connected to mysensors. Cons, not as verstatile as esp ;)

And with RFM69, ESP and MySensors 2.0 doesn't work for me. With serial gateway, it's ok. With Ethernet Gateway W5100 and MYS 1.0, I lost lot of packets (NRF radio).

Tore André Rosander

Thanks for the response, i tested the esp gateway and it looks good. But i think im going for the serial gateway just to eliminate the need for WiFi in my setup. So if the WiFi is messing up during the night the mysensors network still works.

scalz

@Fabien ah weird.. for test, i have a working rfm69, esp mqtt and mysensors 2b gw.. but i don't know for the other esp gw.

I like the new setup of the MySensors lib, but after getting some more gray hairs and replacing processors, boards and all the other stuff I noticed, there is something wrong with it.

Following effect (tried it with Arduino versions 1.6.3 up to 1.6.9 on a Mac with El Capitan):
I've setup a clean Arduino environment and installed the new MySensors lib. Wrote a program, where I wanted to test some interrupt routines with MySensor and it did not work. ok, seemed to be a bug and watchdog stepped in. Fixed software, rewrote software, created a small test program and always the same issue. I used Node Id 5 for this one.
Then, after a whole day and changing processors and all other stuff I loaded a file, working with 2.0-beta and using Node Id 7. And what I got where the same messages on the gateway, just with Node Id 7. ???
In fact I got a presentation of HUM (my tests with Node 5), but with Node 7, although the file never had anything to do with HUM.
Verseifen with an Arduino Nano board, installed a very small MySensor example script on it and same effect.

So, some pieces of the initial program were once compiled and resided in the system, regardless what source you are using afterwards.

Deleted the new 2.0.0 lib, installed my 2.0.0-beta and everything is fine. Switched back to 2.0.0 stable and instantly the old binary was back there.

Any ideas?

@tante-ju
Jumped onto my ESXi server with a windows VM windows setup and the problem you are describing for the mac went away. I have El Cap on my mac with the same type of problems. Don't have an answers but windows worked fine. Wasted a couple of hours trying to fix also.

@tante-ju Some sort of cache problem? I had a similar issue with the beta, i used the clear eeprom sketch on the node and set a different node id manually and fixed it.

EDIT: Had the same problem now with the v2 release, clear eeprom on the node solved it

Hi, as the same type of old code is written in a new proc, it could not be the EEPROM. The Arduino environment together with the new MySensors lib seems to build some object files only once and then uploads them all the time.

Hi, when I'm try to upload the sketch GatewayESP8266 I got the following error:

Error compiling for board NodeMCU 1.0 (ESP-12E Module).

Even when i try to comment the "Include Schedule.h" then i got an error about the "core_version.h" file.

anyone ?

Just started playing with mysensors - in my case trying to use a WeMos D1R2. I was getting the same errors - although I can happily compile other sketches on the boards so I knew it wasn't me.... well, probably not entirely. I think maybe because I've only recently started using it perhaps I don't have older libraries installed as well as the current ones? Anyhow, horrible hack is as follows:

Go to https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino
Download the core branch
Open the zip file and go to the cores/esp8266 directory (yes you can also download just the files below individually, but I have found in the past you can have issues with corrupted files doing it that way - feel free to give it a go if you want)
Copy the files Schedule.cpp, Schedule.h, and core_version.h and put them into your arduino\libraries\MySensors-master directory

Compile away and hopefully it will work this time! Did for me...... ;-)

Note - if you decide to use your board for sensors as well you may have to copy over other supporting files.

Cheers

Update - for some weird reason errors came back, and I could not trace the cause easily. Decided to do a clean install - backup up my sketches, and removed the Arduino IDE along with the libraries. Note that on my mac there was a library folder both in my documents as well as in username\Library. Anyhow, reinstalled, re-downloaded everything, and my sketches compiled without an issue.
