NRF24 i cant configure raspberry pi1

@Rodolfo-Vieira said in NRF24 i cant configure raspberry pi1:

[SECTION] Detecting SPI driver.
[WARNING] No supported SPI driver detected

@mfalkvidd ahhhh ok :) sorry, now i can solve this problem:
[SECTION] Detecting SPI driver.
[WARNING] No supported SPI driver detected

[mfalkvidd]

@Rodolfo-Vieira that is just a warning. What does it say after?

[Rodolfo Vieira]

@mfalkvidd
ok, already actived SPY
[SECTION] Detecting target machine.
[OK] machine detected: SoC=unknown, Type=unknown, CPU=armv6l.
[SECTION] Checking GPIO Sysfs.
[OK] /sys/class/gpio/export found
[SECTION] Detecting SPI driver.
[OK] SPI driver detected:SPIDEV.
[SECTION] Detecting init system.
[OK] init system detected: systemd.
[SECTION] Saving configuration.
[SECTION] Cleaning previous builds.
[OK] Finished.

now what the frequency i should in this line:
--my-transport=rfm69 --my-rfm69-frequency=868 --my-is-rfm69hw

remember i use nrf24 no rfm69

[mfalkvidd]

@Rodolfo-Vieira none of the rfm parameters are applicable if you use the nrf24 radio.

@mfalkvidd
ok thank you so...i make this:

1 git clone https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors.git --branch master
cd MySensors

2 ./configure --my-transport=nrf24

3 ./configure --my-gateway=ethernet --my-port=5003

4 ./configure --my-gateway=ethernet --my-controller-ip-address=192.168.1.65

5 make

6 sudo ./bin/mysgw -h

7 sudo ./bin/mysgw -d

and i receive this:
pi@hassbian:~/MySensors $ sudo ./bin/mysgw -d
mysgw: Starting gateway...
mysgw: Protocol version - 2.1.1
mysgw: MCO:BGN:INIT GW,CP=RNNG---,VER=2.1.1
mysgw: TSM:INIT
mysgw: TSF:WUR:MS=0
mysgw: !TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL
mysgw: TSM:FAIL:CNT=1
mysgw: TSM:FAIL:PDT
mysgw: TSM:FAIL:RE-INIT
mysgw: TSM:INIT
mysgw: !TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL
mysgw: TSM:FAIL:CNT=2
mysgw: TSM:FAIL:PDT

what is the problem?

[mfalkvidd]

@Rodolfo-Vieira everything on a single line :)
./configure and then add all the options you want. Then press enter. Then run make.

But it looks like the radio is not correctly wired. Could you post a photo?

[Rodolfo Vieira]

@mfalkvidd lol ok, i am newbie sorry for the stupid acts.

1 ./configure --my-transport=nrf24 --my-gateway=ethernet --my-port=5003 --my-gateway=ethernet --my-controller-ip-address=192.168.1.65

2 make

3 sudo ./bin/mysgw -h

4 sudo ./bin/mysgw -d

result:

mysgw: Starting gateway...
mysgw: Protocol version - 2.1.1
mysgw: MCO:BGN:INIT GW,CP=RNNG---,VER=2.1.1
mysgw: TSM:INIT
mysgw: TSF:WUR:MS=0
mysgw: !TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL
mysgw: TSM:FAIL:CNT=1
mysgw: TSM:FAIL:PDT

[mfalkvidd]

TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL means the software is unable to communicate with the radio. That is usually due to the radio not being correctly wired. Could you post a photo?

[Rodolfo Vieira]

off course

@Rodolfo-Vieira thanks. It will take me a while to compare to the wiring guide but I'll report as soon as I have mapped the colors.

[Rodolfo Vieira]

@mfalkvidd ok no problem i waiting

[mfalkvidd]

@Rodolfo-Vieira on raspberry pi 1, pin 15 is not gnd. Move it to pin 20 or one of the other gnd pins. Stop mysgw (ctrl+c) and start it again after you have switched pins.

[Rodolfo Vieira]

@mfalkvidd you are correct. I confirm all the wires 5 times.
but the error is the same.

after that i changed my nrf for two other that i had, and the error is the same.

exist any way to confirm if the nrf24 is working fine? may be my nrf are damaged. i dont know.

edit: I tried to , connect POWER NRF24 to external power, and connect ground external power to ground raspberry pi.. and the result is the same.

TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL

[mfalkvidd]

@Rodolfo-Vieira do you mean that moving gnd on nrf24 from 19 to 20 on raspberry pi did not help?

[Rodolfo Vieira]

@mfalkvidd
yes i changed gnd As you told me,,,and not work.
after that i confirm again all wires...and not work again.... then i connect more two nrf24...make sudo reboot
and run sudo ./bin/mysgw -d

but the error is the same,,, so a decide help with external source 3.3v

i connected wire power nrf24 ---> power external source
gnd powersource -------> other gnd raspberry pi

sudo reboot again...
after sudo ./bin/mysgw -d

and the error is the same..... :(

[mfalkvidd]

Sorry, I see now that I probably misinterpreted the photo.

Cross-referencing your colors with the official wiring instructions is very tedious.

But it looks like the wiring is indeed correct.

[mfalkvidd]

Easiest way to check the nrf is probably to build a node, if you have a spare Arduino.

[Rodolfo Vieira]

@mfalkvidd
may be all my nrf24 are damaged, i have 3.

Is there any way to check if they are good?
If the connections are well made should work correct?

And is an external source even necessary?

tomorrow i will test what do you say me now, because now have to go to work.

Same problem here.

Same problem here.

If you solve the problem please tell me.
