What is URL for this project?
-
Don't know if it has a project website but it can be found here https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/838/windows-gui-controller-for-mysensors

Tekka, is this working for 2.0 and mqttclientgateway? if so, this could be a dream come true for keeping tabs on what's out in my network and versioning ect.
-
@Jason-Brunk it's working with MySensors 2.0, but not for mqtt
-
Dang, the ota update is something i am looking for big time, but it seems using mqtt is killing that option for me. I went mqtt route since I have a fault tolerant openhab system and it's easier to fail over services than physical connections.
-
As far as I know tekka is working on a mqtt support and there is also MyController, which also has OTA support and mqtt. Maybe you can have a look at it.
-
@Anduril very cool. I will check on mycontroller. I probably won't need most of the functionality but if it can do the ota for mqtt for now it might work. I like tekka's project so I am hoping that gets the mqtt ota support. Thanks!
-
Is it possible to use this app when using RS485 transport? I have one of these usb (ftdi based) adapters connected with 2 Arduino MEGA on a RS485 bus:
Tried it but I don't see any messages. Connecting serial monitor does show a traffic.
-
@Bart You should not connect MYSContoller to the RS485 bus but to the serial (or LAN) gateway connection. In other words, MYScontroller works as a controller not a bus monitor.
-
Any news regarding OTA for MQTT gatways?
I have a MQTT GW running on a NodeMCU and I can upload new versions of the GW sketch to it using ArduinoOTA. It would be great to be able to also update the sensors connected to it without having to connect it to my computer.
-
Just wanted to support the support for MQTT, that would really be awesome (especially since MyController can do ota over mqtt
)
-
Hi all,
Thanks again for the great work.
Simple question: Is still MQTT support in the roadmap? Will it be possible to do FOTA over an MQTT Gateway?Regards! Merry Xmas and Happy New Year!

Myscontroller latest version 1.0.0.3316 shows trojan at virustotal
is this ok?
https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/6082b86e6a56783e692afaa7c6d79e5af0d6ca58476ef7e180a39594ce441cd7/detection
Whats the reason for it
-
@iocare-research-team False alarm (4 out of 67), most likely due to the executable being packed with UPX.
-
@tekka ok.. hope so!
-
Is there any chance of making this tool Open source. Its great tool.
Making it open could lead to its porting to various platforms like android and ios
and other desktop OS and also make it more stable.
just a suggestion.!
-
Nice app ! Is there any How To for the begeners i m not able to connect my network. Thinks
-
latest version I can find is 1.0.0 beta... but i've seen screenshots of 1.2.2. where can i get it from?
-
Absolutely great work! Just discovering the extent of the work done with mysensors. Amazing. Thanks
-
No MQTT Support?
-
Hello, is it possible to do FOTA updates from a desktop while the main gateway is connected to an openhab server on RPI3? Or do i have to replug my gateway between RPI3 en desktop every time i want to do an update?
-
@jimmy-loyens What I do in order to have multiple controllers is to make a ethernet-mqtt gateway on an Arduino Uno.
That way I can use OpenHAB, try other controllers and also use mycontroller.org to do node management and FOTA.
I think that there is no other way.
-
@guillermo-schimmel hi, thanks for your response. "Set up a ethernet mqqt gateway" could you elaborate on this? I'm quite competent with arduino, but i'm still learning about mqtt as i go. I have managed to setup mosquitto on my openhab server thoug. Do you mean let openhab send mqtt messages to the ethernet mysensors gateway and thus making it possible to connect MYSController to the ip of the mysensors ethernet gateway? Do you know of some example code? I know there is an example of an ethernet gateway but can it allso handle mqtt by default? Thanks
-
@jimmy-loyens ok, i did some reading and i think i just need to build the mqtt gateway (is this correct?). Do you hava an example of how to interface a mqtt gateway to openhab? I suppose this would be quite different to a serial gateway. Thanks
-
@jimmy-loyens Yes the mqtt gateway is very simple, just use some arduino+nrf4+ethernet.
There is a simple sketch for that.
In order to connect to openhab you should use openhab 2.4 and the mysensors (unofficial) binding. If you are on an older openhab you can just use the mqtt 1.x binding.
I did a post a few weeks ago. I'll try to find it for you.
-
@guillermo-schimmel Here you have some openhab+mqtt+mysensors examples
-
@guillermo-schimmel thanks, seems i have an ethernet shiel + spare uno lying around. I will give it a go. Is the mysensors binding compattible with custom nodes i written my own code for? Wich metod is less work to reprogram my openhab? I'm asking because my openhab is quite elaborate. I have a few 100 items and about 80 mylight sensors plugged in to openhab
right now (serial gateway) they all enter openhab via 1 rule with a large hashmap. If i understand correctly i have to create a thing for each sensor and link each item to the channel of this thing. Got a lot of work to do
-
@jimmy-loyens i use a mosquitto broker to get messages from my esp milight hub in openhab. Can i use this same broker with different topic? I beleive openhab uses mqtt binding for this. Sorry still got a lot to learn about mqtt
-
@jimmy-loyens Yes, use the same broker for everything.

Same setup here.

Yes, but if you do it in text files it's not that bad.
-
Ok, thanks for all your help! I'll get started this weekend with the mysensors binding approach.
-
@guillermo-schimmel hi, when i look under mysensors binding in openhab paperui i only see things for serial gw & ethernet gw but not for mqtt gateway. Am i supposed to build a ethernet gw or is mqtt gw allso supported? Just asking to know wich firmware to flash since hw is the same. Thanks
-
@jimmy-loyens You have to build an mqtt gateway. On the hardware side it is identical to the ethernet gateway.
There is another sketch for it though:
https://www.mysensors.org/build/mqtt_gateway
It is very easy.
Please let me know it if works. I really like the openhab+mqtt+mysensors combination, I think that eventually there will be a lot of us here.
-
@guillermo-schimmel I have been looking at the mysensors binding this evening (see my posts here: https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/7176/openhab-2-2-binding/118), but at first sight i cant get it working (i cant find a lot of clear documentation on the binding either) so i'm leaning more to the MQTT-binding approach right now. I will be exploring this route tomorrow. allready reflashed the gateway with MQTT-firmware
-
@jimmy-loyens do you use the mysensors-binding in openhab or the mqtt-binding (or a combination of the two)
-
@jimmy-loyens I use the openHAB-mysensors 2.3 binding.
But if you are unsure your mysensors setup works, it’s reasonable to start with mqtt binding and then migrate. Lots of moving parts.
I have posted here my own files for your reference.
-
@guillermo-schimmel can you tell me where you downloaded the binding? I think im using the 2.2 binding. Is it possible you forgot the link to your setup files? Greets

Please take a look here:
https://www.mysensors.org/controller/openhab
You will find my config and also a link to the 2.4 version of the binding.
-
@guillermo-schimmel ok thanks, the link was formilliar, i have come by this link at one time in the past but i couldnt find it anymore
. I will give it another try tomorrow with the newer binding. The configuration examples will help alot. Thanks
