💬 MDMSGate

@kalina

Will you also please add the design files to your project.

[kalina]

@hek This is my first complete device and I would like to know what else I have to add? Gerber files and scheme I have already added.

[hek]

I'm referring to the KIcad or Eagle source files so people can learn and fork from your fine project.

I like the product and want to buy two of them. Is shipping to the Netherlands possible?

[kalina]

Hi @rubenverhoef. In my opinion, it shouldn't be problems with the delivery. There are some questions:

1. How quickly will MDMSGates come to you?
2. How much will shipping be cost (i mean DHL or other post service) ?
3. What hardware (Wi-Fi, Ethernet, etc.) and software (bootloader, sketch, etc.) configuration do you need?

We can discuss the details in the chat or on Skype, as you wish...

[rubenverhoef]

@kalina I will send you a PM!

Maybe for future version of the gateway would it be possible to add RF-link ? I guess you can still use a rflink by connecting it to a raspberry pi gateway in the normal way but it would be cool to be able to also control 433/868Mhz and Mi-light products from one gateway.

Actually, not as you think, I'm going to use rflink to control my nodes. Gateway connects directly to the controller (as an example to raspberry pi) via USB, Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection.

@kalina When are you going to sell your devices? I'm going to buy one or two...

[kalina]

@damsh I can sell MDMSGates already. I have sent to you PM.

@kalina Received gateway and tested it. The gateway is good made and work fine. Thank you!
I'm using it as serial gateway for no, but late going to use it as MQTT ethernet gateway with Openhab.
Thank you once more!

This type

@kalina the box is really beautiful. Perfect for getting a high spouse acceptance factor. Do you print the film yourself? What kind of printer is required?

No, I don't. This sticker is printed by an advertising company.

Hello Kalina, I'm new to the whole gateway and sensors world. Can I connect this gateway to a raspberry pi and then use the wifi and 868MHz at the same time? So I can use different types of sensors. Thanks in advance.

Hi Kalina,

I've been searching RF gateway with enclosure for Raspberry Pi and your one seems to fit my needs but I'd like to know what kind of library is used for RFM69.

Thanks in advance.

[mfalkvidd]

Hi @pointbre, welcome to the MySensors community!

The library used, well, is MySensors :) https://www.mysensors.org/about/iot is a good place to start

Hi @mfalkvidd , thanks for your reply. Does that mean that I can plug this MDMSGate into USB port of Raspberry Pi? I would like to use MDMSGate as a RF gateway(based on RFLink firmware, see http://www.nemcon.nl/blog2/), which can commuciate with Node-Red on Raspberry PI via USB serial connection(see https://nodered.org/docs/hardware/arduino).
