MYSBootloader 1.3pre2 testing

Is there a way to debug the bootloader should it print debug information and how to see this?

Hi,
I just start to test this bootloader...
I use an ATmega328p on breadboard with no external clock, with nRF24 and somes sensors.
Firmware Upload (by usbasp) and Run is ok, Send/Receive Data is ok too , but when I ask a reboot (with MYSController 1.0.0beta), my node enter in sort of strange start loop...
My Fuse settings :

bootloader.unlock_bits=0x3F
bootloader.lock_bits=0x0F
bootloader.low_fuses=0x62
bootloader.high_fuses=0xDA
bootloader.extended_fuses=0x07

Node debug Trace :

.....
TSP:MSG:READ 0-0-4 s=2,c=1,t=0,pt=7,l=5,sg=0:28.18
TSP:MSG:READ 0-0-4 s=1,c=1,t=1,pt=7,l=5,sg=0:38.28

....

The "Startiþ" text is the first char of the first text printed by bootloader at start : "Starting sensor....."
Have you an idea ?

Thanks

Please provide additional information such as library version, full debug log of your GW and node. Which bootloader/version are you using?

Tetnobic

@tekka Thanks for you response
For gateway :
Raspberrry PI Gateway in Ethernet mode
Protocol version : 2.0.1-beta

For Node :
I use bootloader : MYSBL13pre_atmega328_1Mhz.hex
Inital Sketch do nothing :) :

#define MY_DEBUG
#define MY_BAUD_RATE 9600
#define MY_RADIO_NRF24
#define MY_OTA_FIRMWARE_FEATURE
#define MY_NODE_ID 1

#include <MySensors.h>

void presentation(){
  sendSketchInfo("MyFirstBoard", "0.0.2", true);
}

void setup() {
}

void loop() {
  wait(5000);
}

Test Case: Start Gateway, Connect MYSController 1.0.0beta, then start my sensor, after init complete, click reboot in MYSController

Need others infos ?
Thanks for your time

@Tetnobic

Starting sensor (RNONA-, 2.0.0)

Your node is running MySensors 2.0.0 (your GW is at 2.0.1, please consider updating), also, there is no sign of MYSBootloader in your GW log - please double-check if you followed the correct procedure.
One more thing: the startup message indicates that you enabled OTA firmware features (RNONA-) - this is not required with MYSBootloader.

Please have a look at @scalz's OTA guide for additional information.

Tetnobic

@tekka Thanks for your response
What are the sign of MYSBootloader in GW log ?
Can I also see any sign of MYSBootloader in Node Log ?

I remove OTA firmware features, I now have :

Starting sensor (RNNNA-, 2.0.0)

but same problem, after receive reboot message I have a "StartiStartiStartiStartiS...." loop :(:(

tekka

@Tetnobic No, you won't see anything in the node log - but in the GW log you should see somehting like:


1;255;4;0;0;64000200C803948D0105

@tekka Hi, I found my mistake ! You were absolutely right when you said there is no sign of MYSBootloader in my GW log...
But now I know why :) :
I use an USBasp Programmer with Arduino IDE for upload my bootloader and my sketch..., and I mistakenly thought that when I upload bootloader then sketch, it keep bootloader.....but NOT, it overwrite bootloader :(
I fix it by uploading the xxx.with_bootloader.hex file generated by Arduino IDE when compile.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your help

Anduril

@Tetnobic can this be done within the IDE? I have some nodes where I have to upload with ISP and thought to still have the bootloader, but this explains why OTA didn't work afterwards...

Tetnobic

@Anduril I think you can do this without Arduino IDE...
but how compile you code for generate sketch+bootloader ( the xxx.with_bootloader.hex file) in command line I don't know....
For upload this file on my ATMega, I use avrdude, the same command line that ardunio IDE use, but change the .hex file...

Tigroenot

Tried this bootloader.
Have two nodes 8MHz internal, two nodes 1MHz. All run beautifully, the OTA firmware update around a minute with binaryButton sketch. But the node startup is around 7-8 seconds. And no problems uploading the sketch via serial.
I use an UNO as an ASP to burn the bootloader and a simple USB_TTL FTDI converter to upload sketches.

This may be a stupid question, but I'm using the mysgateway on a Raspberry Pi as my controller which is described here:

Building a Raspberry Pi Gateway

The Raspberry pi runs headless and I do everything through ssh. Is there any way to use MYSBootloader using the mysgateway and initiating the OTA update using the command line?

Shall we all join hands and give a warm applause to @tekka for his work and pray that he'll find the time to give us a lovely christmas present. The MYSBootloader 1.3+ pushed to github 😃

@tekka pleeeease.... :pray:

Mark Swift

It's been asked that the source is uploaded multiple times over the last year +, I guess it will not happen anytime soon... :disappointed:

Redferne

@jerseyguy1996

You'll need a Controller to update the firmware in the nodes. I'm using MyController.org running on a RPI3 with a MySensors serial Gateway. Works great!

karlheinz2000

For all who have problems with serial (debug) output using MYSBootloader:
When you burn the 8MHz bootloader, it sets avr fuses to internal 8MHz RC oscillator. This has high tolerance. The serial baudrate was only 108000baud in my case and Arduino IDE did not work.
Setting the fuse to use the external quartz/resonator lead to 111000baud, which was close enough to 115200, to get arduino IDE to read serial data.

tlustoch

Please, can you provide source code? I need to configure radio pins (default MySensors CE and CS pins 9 and 10 are PWM so I need to connect the radio in other way). Thanks a lot!
