Node is not using repeater to talk to gateway

Daniel Oliveira

It's a long shot but can you double check your power sources? I had some weird issues like those in the past because of bad quality power sources.

I recommend adding a 47uF electrolytic capacitor as close as possible to the NRF24 GND and VCC pins, as a 470uF between the GND and the Vin pins of the arduino.

And keep the external power source on even when connecting the USB cable to read the debug messages.

Hope you solve this issue soon

@karl261 Ok, I need to see the sketches first: can you post the sketch of all nodes, i.e. GW, node 99, node 3, node 4? Also, do you have MYSController installed for a few tests?

Oki doki, thanks for looking at this:

Sketch GW:

  /**
 * The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
 * between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
 * The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
 * repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the
 * network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.

 *******************************
 *
 * DESCRIPTION
 * The ArduinoGateway prints data received from sensors on the serial link. 
 * The gateway accepts input on seral which will be sent out on radio network.
 *
 * The GW code is designed for Arduino Nano 328p / 16MHz
 *
 * Wire connections (OPTIONAL):
 * - Inclusion button should be connected between digital pin 3 and GND  
 * - RX/TX/ERR leds need to be connected between +5V (anode) and digital pin 6/5/4 with resistor 270-330R in a series
 *
 * LEDs (OPTIONAL):
 * - To use the feature, uncomment MY_LEDS_BLINKING_FEATURE in MyConfig.h
 * - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
 * - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
 * - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error 
 *

@Daniel-Oliveira Yeah, I know about these power things. I am pretty sure the power is ok. I use the caps on all my nodes. For the repeater (99) I picked a very stable 5V source and the NRF24+PA+LNA sits behind its own 3.3V regulator that has a high current output. The NRF24+PA+LNA is shielded after @Oitzu's method, so it should not interfere with itself. Actually I tried to implement all the tricks.
Btw, all is on 2.0.0.
GW: Nano
99: Pro mini
30 + 4: 1Mhz battery nodes after @m26872's "My Slim 2AA Battery Node".

It all sounds too nice to be true... ;-)

karl261

@tekka MYSController? No, but if you point me to a link or so I could install of course.

Edit: Ok, I downloaded your software. It seems it is running well on my PC. I am ready to test.
Edit2: The 1.0.0beta.

tekka

@karl261 What version is it saying?

karl261

@tekka 1.0.0beta built 3314

tekka

@karl261 Ok, then send a C_INTERNAL | I_DEBUG | R message to the GW and node 99 and upload the output.

karl261

@tekka So you mean I connect to my serial gateway and then issue the commands? Yes, let's see.

tekka

@karl261 Ok, and now send C_INTERNAL | I_DEBUG | E - first to node 99, then to the GW and finally, press Discover in MYSController. This should re-establish the routing table.

karl261

@tekka I received ok twice back. Now the nano (GW) is blinking like crazy. And so is the pro mini (repeater). I do a power cycle?

tekka

@karl261 yup

karl261

@tekka Still weird:
99 says 0203 so 02 is going via 03?? Why?
0 says 0263 so 02 is going via 99?

@karl261 hmm...indeed, that's weird. Do you have the debug log of node 3?

karl261

@tekka Which log exactly? Node 3 is Mysensors 1.5... It is sitting somewhere hidden...

tekka

@karl261 But you wrote:

Btw, all is on 2.0.0.

mixed setups are not advisable (and not supported). Please update if possible.

karl261

@tekka Yes, with "all" I meant those being involved in the repeater stuff.

tekka

@karl261 Can you add this to node 4 (this is the relayed one?):

#define MY_PARENT_NODE_ID 99
#define MY_PARENT_NODE_IS_STATIC

karl261

@tekka I can add it to node 30 right now. It is also supposed to be relayed. In fact this is why I did start this thread in the first place, I had no luck with these two lines. Will try again.

Oooohhh, there is a mistake further up: I am talking about node 30, and wrote node 3. That is incorrect. Let's see if I can edit. That is why you were asking about the 1.5...

Node is not using repeater to talk to gateway
