Thanks for the reply. I am not looking to use an LCD, although that may be the best solution. For now, I plan on creating a simple set of LEDs and buttons.
I have looked over the code, and was wondering which part of the code is retrieving the status of a sensor? What if I have multiple motion sensors, how would I retrieve each unique value?
@Nca78 Yes, I was actually thinking using DIP switch (or even more easy to read thumbwheel switch) to give a unique ID to each node! As soon as I receive the extra radio modules I ordered, I'll test that.
@Grubstake I'm afraid you're right! But it's ok to have just a few days of battery life. As I wrote, it might be often disassembled and reassembled.
I've been using processing.org to capture data from Arduinos. I haven't tried with an RPi yet, but the link here is dedicated to just that.
Processing is more geared for doing really fancy graphics, but its ability to capture data and put it to a file is great, and, of course, send data to the Arduino.
I am inexperienced in interprocess communication, but, apparently processing can put the data out to MQTT check this link
Let me know how that works out for you!
