Well I'm lost
-
deleted gw from vera and reinstalled new device called it my sensor
logged out of vera and back in and was able to get to serial port config and pick "my sensor",
this time was able to set the baud to 115200 and then reload luupthe blue strip at top then said loading a device I/o and then dissappered.
going under device tab I still see in red writing "Cant detect device!" and still in ver 1.3
no number under lib ver.
after hard start there is no plugin or port config
by pulling usb out of vera and replacing it got me back to same spot ( with portconfiged but not detecting device. ) all I have is nano + radio and with serial software uploaded.@shawn_ky said:
as set to UI7.... I guess the big deal is to get the auto update flag turned off by support and then resetup with UI5. Sounds like support is taking their time. I'll try and see if a chat button magically appears during their working hours and downgrade myself. It works for what I'm using so far, but haven't added the MySensors. Definitely don't want to have to deal with a mess there.

Are you using version 1.3 of the plugin AND the mysensors library/sketch you deployed on the arduino NANO?
-
if you like send the links from where you downloaded the software. Also how long ago did you d/l them? ( as i thought Hek made it quite a clean cutover from 1.3 to 1.4 on the website. But if you used links from micasaverde forum then you may very well have old versions.
Any reason why you are using 1.3, and not 1.4 ?

I just used the plugin that is offered on my sensors website.
I did not see the files from 1.4 in the drop down list used to create device.The word I was looking for last night was the usb light on the front of vera was fluttering as opposed to rapid blinking.

Well here we go again
now at remote veralite with ui5 running win 8.1I have deleted all the old "MySensors Plugin" and started new.
Same old thing, I get setup with ver 1.3 and no lib #
I reloaded the files from my sensors vera page using the gitrepo have since bought a gravitech nano .My files under /users/.../arduino/ show two things not sure about there is file in there called arduino-master with all the libraries under /libraries/. Also there is file MySensors with / all the 1.4 lib version.
Additionally, there is a file arduino/vera-master/ containing all the files from gitrepo but it is coming as ver 1.3
also now after setting new device plugin for nano in ui5 when I go to set the config for serial port under used by device all there is is "MySensors Plugin" which I accepted and saved and up dated.
Tried to reboot the vera and also to reset the nano.I'm running out of hair to pull!!

@5546dug did you download Vera files from this website? There is "Download ZIP" button on the right side. Extract those files and upload one by one to Veralite. After that is done you should have Mysensors plugin under your Devices tab (same as on photo below except Lib version should stay blank until Veralite starts communicating with serial gateway).
-
I believe that is what I have done,
I extracted the files and uploaded to veralite and I get version 1.3Is there a way to delete these lua files on the veralite so to start fresh?
These files were extracted to folder aurduino/vera-master
then up to the vera if I purge 1.3 maybe 1.4 will populate veralte? -
thanks for your time @niccodemi
-
ok will try this now @niccodemi
-
just thinking out loud Would this be best done using chrome or internet explorer browser?
I downloaded the zip from gitrepo with chrome but may have used ie to upload to veralite.
Issues? -
-
@5546dug I guess you are uploading wrong files or something is wrong with vera. Did you try removing Mysensors plugin and rebooting (not just reloading) vera before uploading new files?
Anyway if you want to remove files from vera check this thread and this one on how to get your ssh password. Maybe you could also ask MIOS support to remove files for you.
-
ok progress
I Do need to upload the vera plugin file sto veralite with chrome,
Under the Devices page the device MySensors Plugin was created showing
plugin ver 1.4
lib ver
so looking at the serial config there was not any
research on this site under /Lost USB/ Serial Port on Vera3 again
@blacey gave advice to @clippermiami on how he acheves usb connection
unplug usb>reload>plug usb>reload> set config for port
now I have port set for gw/vera communications
no lib version yet
I know the files are in folder Users/Arduino/libraries/Mysensors/
also using nano v3.0 from gravitech and not clonenext step(s)
-
Ok So this seems to be the end
After the last post I went by the veralite and saw the inclusion light fluttering
What the heck I pressed the reset button on the nano and then the plus on veralite and left it alone
opened the vera a little later see ver 1.4
lib 1.4looks like success for now
thanks to you who responded to my plight and those who posted other issuses on this site.
I did not know about inclusion for the gwNowtosee if I can get a device to be recognized by vera
keep you informed
-
so an update for the veralite ui5
built and installed the humidity sensor
used the my sensor library/humidity and uploaded this to second nano with radio and as the instructions on adding new sensors on the vera plugin page on "My Sensors"/vera,
got the node to be recognized by vera and created three nodes!
main, humidity and temp.Man this is neat
so thanks again for all your posts on these pages very good help
Guess now it is time to set vera3 back to ui5 until I here ui7 is better than now.
But before doing so will see if the ui7 will let this node be accepted and stop the red "No device detected" banner.
