    Hello,

    Here it is https://www.mysensors.org/download/sensor_api_20#create-repeating-nodes
    lot of great docs on main site though ;)

      @stingone hi, the mysensor master library comes with an example file to create a "RepeaterNode" I've built 4 of them using an Arduino nano and a radio module ( https://www.mysensors.org/build/connect_radio) they work very well for me.

      So just using that example code is enough?

        @stingone yep all you have to do is upload it to your radio set-up and that's it, but you do waste a board and a radio unit, but in MY case is well worth it.

          Ok so no need to change any code in my original sensor? and will it send multiple values from more sensors if picked-up?

            no need to change anything on your original sensors and and yes it will relay signals from multiple sensors to your gateway/controller. Just our of curiosity, what controller are you using???

              Using pimatic v9. on a raspberry pi 3. I already build a mysensors combined temp/ph sensor. But had to change the code in mysensors v2.0. I'm using lot of 433mhz over more then 25 devices.. but im now changing also towards mysensors :). so the mysensors is a little bit new to me.

                  Now testing for few day's and i see that one of my sensors stops working after few minutes.. the one that is most close to the gateway... after resetting it sends af few minutes and then stops working again...
