Looks great !

Have you measured what the minimum load is for the dimmer to function correctly ? I currently use X10 in wall modules but run in to trouble when switching to LED lights. The load is too small.

No i have not tested any minimum loads at the moment, this is one of the next steps

Hello, nice project!
does your system may work without neutral wire ?

Is this design for some existing enclosure?

Just to let you know that I solved the issue. I found a library where you can control the speed and make sure it get to it's position. You can find it here: https://github.com/netlabtoolkit/VarSpeedServo I incorporated it in the Mysensor sketch and it works eventhoug it looks like it only goes like 90 degrees but it's enough for me : #include <MySensor.h> #include <SPI.h> #include <VarSpeedServo.h> // #include <Servo.h> #define SERVO_DIGITAL_OUT_PIN 3 #define SERVO_MIN 0 // Fine tune your servos min. 0-180 #define SERVO_MAX 180 // Fine tune your servos max. 0-180 #define DETACH_DELAY 900 // Tune this to let your movement finish before detaching the servo #define CHILD_ID 10 // Id of the sensor child MySensor gw; MyMessage msg(CHILD_ID, V_DIMMER); VarSpeedServo myservo; // create servo object to control a servo // a maximum of eight servo objects can be created // Servo myservo; // create servo object to control a servo // a maximum of eight servo objects can be created Sensor gw(9,10); unsigned long timeOfLastChange = 0; bool attachedServo = false; void setup() { // Attach method for incoming messages gw.begin(incomingMessage); // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller gw.sendSketchInfo("Servo", "1.0"); // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices) gw.present(CHILD_ID, S_COVER); // Request last servo state at startup gw.request(CHILD_ID, V_DIMMER); } void loop() { gw.process(); if (attachedServo && millis() - timeOfLastChange > DETACH_DELAY) { myservo.detach(); attachedServo = false; } } void incomingMessage(const MyMessage &message) { myservo.attach(SERVO_DIGITAL_OUT_PIN); attachedServo = true; if (message.type==V_DIMMER) { // This could be M_ACK_VARIABLE or M_SET_VARIABLE int val = message.getInt(); myservo.write(SERVO_MAX + (SERVO_MIN-SERVO_MAX)/100 * val,255,true); // sets the servo position 0-180 // Write some debug info Serial.print("Servo changed. new state: "); Serial.println(val); } else if (message.type==V_UP) { Serial.println("Servo UP command"); myservo.write(SERVO_MIN,255,true); gw.send(msg.set(100)); } else if (message.type==V_DOWN) { Serial.println("Servo DOWN command"); myservo.write(SERVO_MAX,255,true); gw.send(msg.set(0)); } else if (message.type==V_STOP) { Serial.println("Servo STOP command"); myservo.detach(); attachedServo = false; } timeOfLastChange = millis(); }

@dzungpham0703 I buy them on Aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?catId=0&initiative_id=SB_20180706102504&SearchText=HTTM If you apply hot air it is easy to take off the white "double sided tape" and the plastic.

@dzungpham0703 I replied in the nrf51822 thread. Yes I managed to make it work like the original with BLE stack. And using the wonderful Cypress Proc BLE solution including capsense and lots of goodies . Cypress really rocks! I love them. The current consumption was lowered to 200uA without being connected and 700uA connected. Those numbers include LEDs current consumption and other blocks like touch sensing. I'll get back with more updates when it's finished.

@tlustoch The node is a very simple one. So I never considered boot loaders, as the node would not need changing sketches during it's lifetime. I have boot loading functionality on my other designs, this one is a minimal board. Any extra chip would beat the purpose of the word "minimal". It's a dumb node for a reason

I have published all the documentation in a Github repository. If someone wants to make PCBs, I recommend that you wait a little longer until you receive my PCBs and try them. https://github.com/giltesa/SmartHome

@zmatokan said in NModule: @Nca78 Are you still working on this pcbs? i think it would be great to add a version that supports HiLink 220ac->5dc module on powerboard. No I'm not working on NModules anymore, I have a few old nodes using atmega/nrf24 but I switched to NRF5 for "basic" nodes now, and to ESP32 for more "advanced" stuff. NModule was designed for beginner and simple/riskless use, so I don't think adding high voltage option is a great idea, it's better to use an external power supply and connect the output to the powerboard.
