Hi I am looking for a UV Sensor that shows current intensity and accumulated light over time. Does anyone have any suggestions? I was looking at: Grove - UV Sensor, ML8511 and VEML6070.
@jvdk I don't use a raspberry pi, but searching on this forum I found this topic : https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/11315/raspberry-pi-zero-gateway-with-local-sensor
(important : read the comment to use wait() and NOT delay())
You could get in touch with the author if you have questions.
FYI for anyone who finds this thread:
I installed the shield on a Raspberry Pi 3 and used --my-leds-rx-pin=15 --my-rf24-ce-pin=12 config parameters. The network seems to work and the red LED is blinking. I have not verified whether the LED blinks when MySensors daemon receives a message, but I would assume it does and does not just blink randomly.
All in all this shield seems like quite a nice way to install the NRF24 radio to a Raspberry Pi, so I would highly recommend it over Dupont cables.
@virtualmkr I don't speak for mysensors, but while it may not yet be officially supported, I would imagine that it should work, other than maybe OTA updates/bootloader, provided that it's wired up correctly. I could be wrong, but I think you may just need to comment out whatever it is that's causing the compilation to abort with an error. Maybe some of the pin mappings need to change, but I wouldn't imagine it's terribly dramatic. If you have the gumption, give it a try and report back. After all, the atmega4809 has more flash and more ram. Running on lesser hardware would be potentially not feasible, but running on superior hardware shouldn't be a show-stopper if you work around the obstacles.
