Ethernet gateway troubleshooting advice
-
I used latest Master library this time and patched RF24_config.h (enabled SoftSPI and changed pins), included DigitalIO. Sketch uploaded successfully, I get "gateway startup" message and I can ping it. Vera also communicates with gateway (lib version shows up, inclusion buttons work). Then I tried to include two independent nodes / sensors : distance and relay. I can only include relay node (no light button) and distance sensor (no node). I tried several times. Gateway always receives radio message but somehow doesn't relay all info to Vera? I rebuilt sensors with latest Master library (with softspi disabled). What else should I try?

@hek see below, I included relay node, tried several times, only 1 device added (node, no relay button)

Looks like the sends is failing.
@Anticimex told me he was investigating send-fails that evidently started when the updated RF24-with-SOFTSPI was introduced a couple of weeks ago.
Hmm... somehow this new version could be affecting this. If rolling back would mean you'd lose SOFT-SPI-option.
@Anticimex: Did you locate the problem?

Something fishy is definitely going on: This is the log from a relay actuator I just hooked up.

read: 5-1-0 s=1,c=0,t=3,pt=0,l=3:1.4After the last send it finds messages (the last 3) which gateway not should have sent. Almost as the gateways hardware ack-messages is picked up by the sensor as regular messages.
You might wanna roll back until the root cause of the is found.
Pinging @TMRh20Projects here also.
This is the commit that is causing the problem: https://github.com/mysensors/Arduino/commit/2fd948fc6667460961194040bef635d25b4dfd8b

I think I've found the problem and a patch has been check in to master branch. So @niccodemi download the latest and try again please.
@marceltrapman this might be related to some the problems you experiences earlier as well.

I would be really happy when my case is solved as well with this.
Do I have to reload gateway, repeater, sensor or all sketches? -
-
Yes, I think it is solved. The problem was there even before the RF24 update but it didn't manifest itself as much.
-
Since it is a change to Mysensor.cpp, then I assume all sketches are the same but every sketch that uses Mysensor.cpp (which is all sensors and the gateway) need to be compiled/uploaded again after downloading the new library?
-
Gateway and sensors updated. Running fine.

I was able to get the GW up and added the temp sensors finally. Thanks for the help. :)

@karenbobiv Congratulations!!!

@p0lar The 1.4 version at github contains the updates. I guess the version number was not incremented.
I would also like to see version number change if the code changed so it would be possible to know what version you are actually on. There might be a few different 1.4 versions in use at the moment and this is not good when it comes to supporting people when they have problems.
