💬 Building a Raspberry Pi Gateway

gohan

Exactly, I was about to write pretty much the same

Grubstake

@gohan I beat you to it!

@Grubstake: Thanks. I have tried to follow "NRF24L01+ Radio" pin out connection. I have double / triple check my wiring is correct. But I still get the same fail message in mysgw debug mode:

I can run mysgw. But what can I use it for? I want to make it control my light with 2.4G RF. But I don't know what to do next. Please advice Thank you.

gohan

@ccy
You need to provide some more details about your hw and general setup, what have you done so far, log messages, etc.

ccy

@gohan Sorry for my typo mistake. I can now run mysgw. But what can I use it for? I am trying to control my light with 2.4G RF.

gohan

Do you mean your light has already 2.4G RF or do you need to make a relay node with NRF24 that can switch on and of that light? But this is going a little OT in this thread.

ccy

@gohan Yes. I want to do that. I am sure my LED controller is 2.4G RF. But I can't detect any signal yet from my nrf24l01+ on raspberry pi. I am not sure what's wrong. Still trying now...

gohan

@ccy
Being 2.4G RF doesn't mean it is NRF24L01 compatible also without knowing what channel is using will make it even more difficult. So, unless you want to make a Mysensors LED Controller, I think you are out of luck if you want to directly control your existing one with a RPI and the mysensors gateway. Either way this is OT.

ccy

@gohan Is there a way to know the channel by doing some sort of scan? If the channel is known, what are the setting to fix the channel for mysgw?

Velo17

Hello everyone!

I'm using a Rasp2 (with the 40 pins GPIO header)

Has anyone experience with using the NRF module on different pins than default? I'm asking because I wonder if I can connect a GPIO-connected touch TFT (which would use the 2 CE lines for the touch and display interfaces) together with the NRF - by hooking the MISO/MOSI/SCLK to the default pins (and thus sharing them between the TFT and NRF) and defining free pins for the CE and CS lines in the ./configure script when compiling the gateway code...?!

Or maybe using the SPI1 by first enabling it as laid out in this blog post - but how to proceed from there? (How to tell the gateway code to use SPI1?)

marceloaqno

@Velo17

./configure --spi-driver=SPIDEV --spi-spidev-device=/dev/spidev1.0

(replace the /dev/spidev1.0 with the one you enabled in /boot/config.txt)

engy

Hello Masters,

Could you please help me with setting up virtual serial port?

I can't see the interface created under /dev.
I'm using the instructions and finish with the setup with the following command:

Everything seems to be OK. However, when I check /dev directory, the interface is not created.

What could be an issue?
Thank you in advacne!

gohan

Why don't you compile it as ethernet gateway?

engy

@gohan Etherner Gareway is not supported by OpenHab MySensors binding.

gohan

Mqtt?

engy

@gohan I'm sorry, MQTT is not supported by OpenHab MySensors binding. Ethernet Gateway is not supported on Raspberry PI.

marceloaqno

@engy OpenHab2 supports mysensors serial and ethernet gateways:
https://github.com/tobof/openhab2-addons/wiki

Maybe the build guide may have given you that impression, but ethernet Gateway is supported on Raspberry PI:

./configure --my-gateway=ethernet

keldandorin

@gohan Solved the problem with radio...Thx

engy

Thank you guys for prompt reaction. Indeed, Ethernet GW works flawlessly!

TommiP

Hi
Is anyone else having this same problem on Rpi3?: Gateway works ok after "sudo make install" with openHAB. With "sudo ./bin/mysgw -d" I can get debug log visible and log works ok.
But if I run "sudo systemctl enable mysgw.service" after "sudo make install", debug log start showing endlessly "mysgw: accept: Bad file descriptor". So debug log function gets destroyed and it can't be used anymore. I have made several clean installations and every time this same happens.
Br
Tommi

marceloaqno

@TommiP What I think is happening is that you are running two instances of the gateway.
If you need to get the debug logs, first stop the mysgw service:

sudo systemctl stop mysgw.service

TommiP

@marceloaqno
Ok, now I understand what happened, thanks.

Re: Building a Raspberry Pi Gateway

Silly questions, I'm a little bit confuse.
I have a serial Gateway running with arduino nano + nrf24 and a raspberry pi with domoticz on board. The link between domoticz & Gateway is done via USB <=> serial port (/dev/ttyUSB0). This setup runs like a charm.

Now, I would like to access to my Gateway via the network because I would like to use "Over The Air " functionnality with MYSController.

Can I install MySensors Gateway on the raspberry and keep the arduino + nrf24 connected via usb ?? For the moment, I can not use GPIO port.

If for some reason you can't use the GPIO pins of the Raspberry Pi, you could connect the radio to a arduino with the GatewaySerial sketch and feed the pi through a serial port:

./configure --my-gateway=serial --my-serial-port=/dev/ttyUSB0 --my-serial-baudrate=115200

[SECTION] Detecting target machine.
[OK] machine detected: SoC=BCM2836, Type=RPi3, CPU=armv7l.

Where is my mistake ??
Again, Can I install MySensors Gateway on the raspberry and keep the arduino + nrf24 connected via usb or I must connected the nrf24 directly with GPIO on the Rasp ??

Thanks in advance for your reply.
Romeo

gohan

@romeo01 I think that connecting nrf24 directly to arduino and compile mysgw as ethernet gateway is the cleanest solution (I have it as MQTT and it is working fine, but ethernet is the same). Keep in mind that you'd better use one of those adapters 5v-3.3v for nrf24 chips + capacitor because the 3v output of raspberry isn't very suited for the task.

romeo01

Thanks gohan for fast answer.

Arduino nano + nrf24 are already connected together. Hardware is already built.

How access to the gatway installed on the raspberry via the network and use my arduino + nrf24 connected via usb/serial to the raspberry ??

Sorry but I do not understand what you mean
...compile mysgw as ethernet gateway is the cleanest solution...

If I configure on this way
./configure --my-gateway=ethernet --my-port=5003

I could access to my Gateway via network an the Gateway will use the arduino + nrf24l via usb/serial ??

That's why I say I'm confuse.

--my-gateway=serial

What is this option ? The link between gateway and nrf24 or the way to access to the Gateway ??

romeo01

In summary,

Is the Gateway (software) installed on the raspberry, is able to manage the nrf24 connected on arduino via USB/Serial port ??

gohan

no, I don't think so. If you want to manage nodes over network you need to make an ethernet gateway (could be a UNO with w5100 shield, an esp8266 or mysgw compiled on raspberry)

romeo01

nrf24 connected to a arduino nano and plugged to the raspberry over the usb/serial cable is not considered as a serial device ?

What is this option ?

--my-gateway=serial

If for some reason you can't use the GPIO pins of the Raspberry Pi, you could connect the radio to a arduino with the GatewaySerial sketch and feed the pi through a serial port:

That's exactly what I need, but how to do ??

./configure --my-gateway=serial --my-serial-port=/dev/ttyUSB0 --my-serial-baudrate=115200

Serial port /dev/ttyUSB0 is ok, because I use this with domoticz and it'running good.

My initial question is how to use my old gatway (arduino + nrf24) with the gateway compiled on the raspberry over the usb/serial cable ?
I can not use GPIO port.

gohan

The serial gateway on the raspberry does what your nano is doing and you can't have gateways talking to each other. Maybe you could look at mycontroller and see if can manage nodes the way you want.

dirkc

When talking about this Raspberry Pi Gateway, I suppose, that its just connecting the NFR24L01+ to the Raspberry Pi GPIO and run

./bin/mysgw -d

right? On my Pi it does not work this way, maybe the NFR24L01+ is not ok. Instead I am running an external esp-wifi-gateway, but a direct gateway seems the better solution to me.
So did I get it right, that I can use a NFR24L01+ connected to the Raspberry PI GPIO without any external gateway? If so, what are the parameters for building the mysgw daemon? I tried this one:

./configure --spi-driver=SPIDEV --spi-spidev-device=/dev/spidev0.0

update: as in https://www.mysensors.org/view/180#wiring
22 – CE
24 – CSN/CS
23 – SCK
19 – MOSI
21 – MISO

SPI is activated:

$ls /dev/spidev*
/dev/spidev0.0  /dev/spidev0.1

And this is the result, when building it with the settings mentioned above. (Raspberry Pi 3, jessie 4.9.13-v7+)

$ sudo ./bin/mysgw -d

And can someone show how to bind this gateway into FHEM? As said, today I am running an esp-wifi-gateay.

Thanks in advance for any support...

romeo01

@gohan
With the serial Gateway on the raspberry; how is connected the nfr24 ??
If usb/serial port is no possible, which serial port to use ?

keldandorin

@gohan Been trying to find my old post to tell you all how it got with my rpi and nodes that did not register. I bougt some voltage regulators LM350. used the 5v output insted of 3.3 V but still no luck to get node to register. when messauring volatage when GW send awnser it drops way below 3.3v. I think voltage output from rpi just is to bad. So I bought a nodemcu for GW instead and it works like a sharm

marceloaqno

@romeo01 You have to connect the nrf24 to the GPIO if you want to use it with the RPi, the information on the wiki was wrong, sorry about that.

gohan

@marceloaqno he said he can't connect nrf24 chip on the rpi, so that's why he is struggling

marceloaqno

@dirkc Try to connect your module to the SPI0 (https://www.mysensors.org/view/180#wiring).
You only need to enable the SPIDEV if you want to use the SPI1.

gohan

@dirkc I don't know where you got those pin numbers but they don't look like the ones on the guide. In addition you don't have to use spi driver. The PA version of nrf24 are quite a pain to get them working, so I suggest you first test with regular modules and then upgrade to PA

dirkc

@gohan, @marceloaqno : sorry, I corrected the "typo", the NRF was already connected as shown in https://www.mysensors.org/view/180#wiring. I double checked that again.
What is the correct setup for ./configure ?

romeo01

@marceloaqno

Thanks marceloagno, the answer is clear.

Keep up the great work !

marceloaqno

@dirkc The default settings for ./configure is to use the nrf24 module connected in the same way as shown in the guide and as an ethernet gateway.

lshield

I'm having issues with the LED setup as shown on the page. The LEDs are just constantly on even though everything looks like it's setup just like the picture. I'm new at this so I could be doing something stupid.

dirkc

@marceloaqno ok, thanks, I will change the radio.

marceloaqno

Support for RFM69 was added to the development branch (finally!).

jirm

@marceloaqno

I´m really happy ear that !

RFM69 is one of best RF transceivers in these days for IoT.
So good news I believe for Mysensors community.

You know if are any hope that RFM69 will be added too to OPI boards support mysgw development ?

Congratulations for that great work !

marceloaqno

@jirm Support for RFM69 also applies to the OrangePi

jirm

@marceloaqno

Awesome !!!
Thank you so much.

Best regards

ftw64

When I configure "MY_RFM69_MAX_POWER_LEVEL_DBM" in MyConfig.h, compiling fails.
Perhaps you should change the code in ./drivers/RFM69/new/RFM69_new.h from:

#define RFM69_MAX_POWER_LEVEL_DBM MY_RFM69_MAX_POWER_LEVEL_DBM //!< MY_RFM69_MAX_POWER_LEVEL_DBM

to:

#define RFM69_MAX_POWER_LEVEL_DBM ((rfm69_powerlevel_t)MY_RFM69_MAX_POWER_LEVEL_DBM) //!< MY_RFM69_MAX_POWER_LEVEL_DBM

ftw64

I cannot get the RFM69(HW) working. When I start myswg in debug mode (-d), I see:

Is there any 'check' I can do to perform basic RFM69HW testing on my RPI?

gohan

Was it working before on a normal Arduino gateway? How did you wire everything up?

ftw64

I'm pretty sure I wired up the RFM69 correctly.
However, I'm debugging. It seems we are stuck in "core/MyGatewayTransport.cpp":

inline void gatewayTransportProcess(void)
{

  if (gatewayTransportAvailable()) {
    // NEVER REACHED

I never seem to get pass gatewayTransportAvailable. I will continue debugging.
Disclaimer: I'm relatively new to MySensors and not really 'up to speed' with the source code :-).

ftw64

@ftw64 Ok, this has to do with connecting an Ethernet client. When a client connects, this code works...
Any idea where to start debugging for incoming RFM69 messages?

gohan

Download myscontroller and connect it to the gateway, you can now see all messages from ethernet controller

ftw64

@gohan said in Building a Raspberry Pi Gateway:

myscontroller

I just did. When I also have a Domoticz controller connected to the gateway:

However, I found out that the DI00 (=IRQ) on the RFM69 never gives a rising edge...

Can't get the RFM69HW to work on RPI. I tried the following:

I installed on an old RPI1 (clean Rasbian install). Same results as on my Domoticz RPI-3.
Setup the original RPI3 as a node, using the 2.2.0-beta code. I verified that in this case the RFM69HW actually transmits (I can hear it burst on 868.000 MHz). However, it is unable to connect to an existing Arduino 2.1.1 gateway.
I built an Arduino 2.2.0-beta serial gateway. Even then, the RPI as a node fails to connect to the 2.2.0-beta serial gateway.
I built an Arduino 2.2.0-beta node. This node is able to connect to the above gateway.

There seems to be something different in the radio network between the RFM69HW on the RPI and the RFM69HW on the Arduino. But I'm unable to find out what the difference is :-(.

The RPI RFM69HW will not communicate with the Arduino RFM69HW. When the RPI is a gateway, the RFM69HW will not physically interrupt when another node is trying to connect. When the RPI is a node, the RFM69HW on the ARduino does not interrupt either.

Did anyone get the RFM69HW working on the RPI? I'd really like to get this beautiful piece of code working!

gohan

I have to ask a stupid question : did you use a logic converter between rpi and rfm69 radio?

ftw64

@gohan There are no stupid questions, right :-)? But perhaps a stupid answer: no, I did not use any logic convertors. The RFM69 is 3.3V and as far as I know, so are the GPIO pins on the RPI. But I might be mistaken, of course... Should I use logic convertors?

At the moment I have no idea where it fails. Perhaps I need to give it a rest for a couple of days to think it over...

I followed the steps as given on the web site (git branch development). Connected the RFM radio (7 wires: Vcc, GND, MOSI, MISO, SCK, NSS, DI00). Only modified MyConfig.h with regard to the NETWORKID (100 --> 101; my 'production' MySensors runs at 100) and enabling "MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_RFM69". I configured with:

% ./configure --my-debug=enable --my-config-file=/usr/local/etc/mysensors.dat --my-gateway=ethernet --my-transport=rfm69 --my-rfm69-frequency=868 --my-is-rfm69hw
% make -j 4
% sudo bin/mysgw -d

mfalkvidd

The gpio pins on raspberry pi are 3.3V. https://raspberrypi.stackexchange.com/questions/3209/what-are-the-min-max-voltage-current-values-the-gpio-pins-can-handle

mfalkvidd

@ftw64 that configure command looks like an ethernet gateway. Could you post the configure command for your "RPI as a node" as well?

marceloaqno

I forgot to mention in the guide:
To communicate with the RPi using the RFM69 radio, all of your nodes need to use the new RFM69 driver available in the development branch.
To make the change, add the following line to the node sketch:

#define MY_RFM69_NEW_DRIVER

gohan

@marceloaqno you forgot just a little little insignificant detail

marceloaqno

@gohan @ftw64 sorry for all the trouble

gohan

It's OK, don't worry. We need to update the guide with the new instructions

marceloaqno

@gohan Done!

ftw64

@marceloaqno Thanks! That indeed does the trick! And no worries, it is my own decision to play with beta(!) code (and it was a fun weekend troubleshooting it - I learned a lot about the structure of the MySensors code)!

Only 'bad' thing is that 2.2.0 is not compatible with my existing nodes :-).

I appreciate all the work that has been put into MySensors.

Fat Fly

This is really stupid. RFM69 radio need powered separately ?

gohan

They shouldn't, but it's always a matter trying

Oliver Acevedo

This post is deleted!

Richard van der Plas

How will this work with HASS running on the same pi ?

gohan

It's the same as it was running on separate hw, you will only set ip address of the gateway in hass

Richard van der Plas

so i can attach the NRF24L01+ to the pi running HA, make it a Ethernet Gateway and point to his own ip adress ?, will this be a long job with converting from a USB connected GW (Arduino with local sensors ? )

gohan

That's pretty much it. I don't know what is your current setup and what sensors you have, but is should not be a long job. Anyway you can install the ethernet gateway and when you are done you take care of the sensors

Richard van der Plas

excellent, will the cpu utilisation be much higher that with a usb connected gw ?

gohan

No, it uses very few cpu

manul

@Richard van der Plas: I strongly recommend to use MQTT instead of Ethernet gateway, as it is a standard way for 2 processes to communicate, and platform-agnostic.
HASS comes with an embed MQTT broker taht works out of the box.
Plus:

you can easily mock either your sensors network or your controller
it does support secure communication
you can add other clients to observe the event, e.g. to log what is coming from/what is sent to the gateway

gohan

I suggested ethernet because it's easier to setup and configure, mqtt is the next step.

pettib

Hi
I also have problem to get the NRF24L01+ chip to work with the RPi3.

I find that the masterbranch don't recognize the board as RPi3 and sets SoC and Type as unknown.
But if i take development branch it´s detecting RPi3 and seems to work correct.

This is result from development Branch configure:

This is the result from cat /proc/cpuinfo:

gohan

That's odd, I have the 2.1.1 compiled on mine rpi 3

marceloaqno

@pettib @gohan There have been some changes in /proc/cpuinfo in newer versions of kernels which leads to a wrong detection.
The problem was fix in #827 and will be available in the master branch in the next mysensor release.

gohan

I'm using dietpi and I compiled it like 2 weeks ago..

Fat Fly

@Richard-van-der-Plas what is this: HASS ?

Richard van der Plas

Ok, i am standig on a crossroad it seems, i have to build a new gateway but i am also interested in the MQTT option, this is between mysensors & HomeASSistant i presume? i have some ESP's lying around unused, but i have 0 knowledge of mqtt (i dont think my hass has it running by default)

gohan

Just go with ethernet first that is easier, get used to it then take your time to learn MQTT. Of course MQTT is more advanced has authentication and encryption but it adds complexity to initial setup.

Richard van der Plas

Damn, just connected as in manual, but gives an error : mysgw: !TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL
Double checked the GPIO pins (except 15 cannot find that one) but seems ok

Richard van der Plas

NM, used GPIO numbers instead of Pin numbers RTFM

I always have a mysgw: accept: Bad file descriptor error when I launch a new ./bin/mysgw -d Exact problem is the following:

mysgw: bind: Address already in use
mysgw: Failed to bind!

And I always need to kill the process first. Is this normal ? (I'm in LAN GW)

Thanks!

gohan

If you already installed mysgw as service to start at boot, it is normal that you can not run another process in debug mode and it conflicts

@gohan said in Building a Raspberry Pi Gateway:

lready installed mysgw as service to start at boot, it is normal that you can not run another process in debug mode and it conflicts

Oh, Ok. Thanks.
Another thing is that when i close PuTTY, the gateway doesn't retrieve anymore the data...

gohan

You need to install it as service so it always runs in background

Is it this process :

1421 ?        Rs    40:25 /usr/local/bin/mysgw

Seems it runs for 40 minutes, but no the gateway sees no data...

gohan

what gateway did you compile? What option in ./configure did you use?

First of all : thanks for helping !

I compiled an Ethernet gateway
The options are the following:

./configure --my-gateway=ethernet --my-port=5003 --my-rf24-irq-pin=15 --my-transport=nrf24

The only way I make the GW working is through the debug mode (by switching off the service process)

Hello, it seems I found the problem: Complete newbie thing:
sudo ./bin/mysgw -h worked, but /usr/local/bin/mysgw didn't
I just gave the right to the folder, and now it's working.
Thanks for taking time to help beginners !

sillicius

@Richard van der Plas : i was have the same error with my raspberry zero. I have succed with the devellopement branch version...

gdekeijzer

Trying to setup a Rpi1, as i got one lying around here.

All work untill i want to 'make'

Has this to do with a limitation of Rpi being v1?

@gdekeijzer There was a recent update on the random number generator for the RPi port, but unfortunately not all linux versions support the new method. @d00616 is working on a solution to this problem #856. Please use the master branch for the time being.

gdekeijzer

Ah great. Thanx for the response. I'll go try that for now.

gdekeijzer

Installed master branche. That did the job. Thanx.

Hello, did anyone tried gateway on pi with RS485 wired network ? It looks like node with ID set is looking for parrent and gateway does not respond to the node and therefore there is no succesfull presentation.

@Luc3as Okay, Again I found answer while after asking, I used dev branch of mysensors and it is working like a charm.

I am a novice, trying to get the raspberry pi gateway to work. I did get it to work on one pi, but while installing it on the second, it produces the following error:

In file included from examples_linux/mysgw.cpp:74:0:
./MySensors.h:254:2: error: #error No support for nRF24 radio on this platform
#error No support for nRF24 radio on this platform
^
In file included from ./drivers/RF24/RF24.cpp:23:0,
from ./MySensors.h:290,
from examples_linux/mysgw.cpp:74:
./drivers/RF24/RF24.h:52:17: fatal error: SPI.h: No such file or directory
#include <SPI.h>

I can see that the SPI.h library is among the files downloaded.

Any ideas?

Paul
