💬 Building a Serial Gateway

@mntlvr you have now posted variants of the same questions in three places. This means efforts to help you will be split into three places. People will waste time helping you in one thread, not knowing the discissions in the other threads. This will waste people's time. Please only post your question in one place.

@mfalkvidd
Well I thought since you wrote this you could answer the question
I have searched entire site for answer and can not find one and since you posted the build last year you would be the one who could answer it -
Hi I'm new to MySensors, I've installed openHAB as my controller and installed the Add-on MySensors to it. But now that I have uploaded GatewaySerial.ino to a Nano with an nRF24L01+, I've noticed that there was no code to drive the setup and loop functions. And how do I verify that it is working? from the Karaf console?...

Hello,
im kind of lost, i need to install a distance sensor buried in a well of water, and will need a lot of tweaking and reprogramming until i get the desired correct measurements.
so i need OTA, extremely low power (battery powered, sleeps most of time), so i went to ultrasonic sensor HC04 which is even powered through GPIO of pro mini, and an nrf24l01+. the main problem is OTA. My concerns are:- should i burn MYSBOOTLOADER on sensor and Serial GW ?
- if bootlader burnt, any sketch can do the OTA?
- should I use only MySensors GW SW, or can i have my own sketch.
Any ideas are welcome.
Thanks a lot

Is there a way to make a serial2mqtt gateway (e.g. a NodeMCU is getting MySensor data on the serial interface and should just bridge that to MQTT)?
-
Is it possible to get a list of all attached nodes? I'd like to attach a TFT screen to the gateway that shows all the connected devices.
@alowhum there is no such thing as an attachment in a MySensors network.
Nodes send messages whenever they like. The nodes may go to sleep at any time, which would make them unavailable.
The gateway does not store information about when a node last communicated, nor about which child sensors have been presented.
-
@mfalkvidd Thanks. Would it be possible to generate that list somehow? Perhaps by listening to what nodes connect to it?
It doesn't matter if they are offline or not, it doesn't have to be perfect.

But could the gateway itself do it too? If so, do you have any suggestions on where I should start? How can I "hook into" the gateway to find out what devices are communicating with it? Is there example code of this?

Thanks!!

After 3 years of using RADIO_RF24 i replaced my all sensors with espeasy. It was just big battle with lost transmissions, disconnections, every day problems. Now for many days silence...Everything works.I still use mysensors in diferrent setup but NRF Radio is asking for trouble.

I tried building a serial gateway using an Arduino Nano, but it never worked (both gateway and node start, but node keeps saying NO REPLY). I used the same NRF24 module directly on the Raspberry Pi, and built a Raspberry Pi gateway, it worked perfectly. Any idea on what might be going on? Thanks!

Can serial gateway be build on Atmel 168 chip instead of 328 in terms of memory? It compiles fine, but leaves little extra memory for variables.
