RFM69 new driver delay

[mickecarlsson]

I run mysgw 2.30 on a RPi 3 Model B and all nodes on 2.20 with RFM69:

cat /proc/cpuinfo
.
.
Hardware	: BCM2835
Revision	: a02082

I did a git pull then configured:

./configure --my-transport=rfm69 --my-is-rfm69hw --my-rfm69-frequency=868
make
sudo make install

Note that I don't use LED's or specify gateway. My Controller is Domoticz

I then started the gateway with debug (note missing -d) (and the log is from today):

pi@mysensors-gw:~ $ sudo /usr/local/bin/mysgw

After the debug check I pressed ctrl-c and started mysgw as a service

sudo systemctl start mysgw.service

System has been running without any hickup since then.

If you check the commit 2175c993ef81b78527c85649f5bdc3585d2f41b2 you will notice that -d is removed and some other features has been added.

    Linux: Use config file for gateway settings (#1061)
    
    - The following settings can be use on the config file:
      - verbose=[debug,info,notice,warn,err] - Logging verbosity.
      - log_file[0|1] - Enable logging to a file.
      - log_filepath=(FILE) - Log file path.
      - log_pipe=[0|1] - Enable logging to a named pipe(aka fifo).
        Use this option to view your gateway's log messages from the
        log_pipe_file (defined below).
        To do so, run the following command on another terminal:
        - $ cat "log_pipe_file"
      - log_pipe_file=(FILE)
      - syslog=[0|1] - Enable logging to syslog.
      - eeprom_file=[/etc/mysensors.eeprom]
      - eeprom_size=[1024]
    - Change some mysgw parameters:
      - Added:
        - -q, --quiet:  for quiet mode, disable log messages written to the
        terminal.
      - Removed:
        - -d, --debug: removed, log messages are now enabled by default.
      - Replaced:
        - -b, --background: replaced by --daemon
    - isatty() is no longer used, log messages by default are printed to
      stderr unless the gateway is started with --quiet (#1022)
    - MY_LINUX_CONFIG_FILE: no longer holds the path to the eeprom file,
      but to the configuration file

My nodes has these definitions (I don't use New Driver):

#define   MY_SPLASH_SCREEN_DISABLED
// Enable and select radio type attached
#define   MY_RADIO_RFM69
#define   MY_IS_RFM69HW
#define   MY_RFM69_FREQUENCY RFM69_868MHZ

@mickecarlsson

Hi
But you run gateway on 2.3.0 and node on 2.2.0 without NEW DRIVER and it was working ?
Even though the gateway has a different version and nodes have a different ?
All people tell that gateway and nodes must have the same version ?

[gohan]

There have been versions in the past that were not backward compatible, but usually it is not necessary to have same version on gw and nodes

[pepson]

@gohan

Ok thanks

[mickecarlsson]

@pepson
Yes, I run gateway 2.30 and nodes on 2.20 without new driver. No probems.

[pepson]

Today i installed Gateway on RPI3 with version 2.3.0 but node has 2.2.0 with NEW_DRIVER and still is problem with communication.

After come back to home i test it with change version on node to 2.2.0 without NEW_DRIVER.

I give you and info...

But tell me on what RPI you have run gateway version 2.3.0 ?
I have RPI3 version B.

Type as above and check the last entries, my RPi is revision a02082
Se here for more info:
Raspberry Pi revision codes

[pepson]

@mickecarlsson
It is the same hardware and rev.
Ok i done test...
On Gateway on RPI3 i have installed MySensors 2.3.0

On node i installed version 2.2.0
One with NEW_DRIVER. Communication with gateway sometimes is ok but still with problem lost communication.

Second test installed on node 2.2.0 without NEW_DRIVER and it no working. No communicate with gateway.
Not working NODE. Any reaction to control relay.

For me only all working when i have MySensors 2.2.0 also on Gateway and also on node with NEW DRIVER option.

[mickecarlsson]

What kind of antenna do you have on the RPi for the radio? And what kind of antenna do you have on the node?

[pepson]

@mickecarlsson

I have a wire length if I remember 82mm.

[mickecarlsson]

Just a hunch, add 4 mm to it so that it is 86 mm instead..
And the power supply for the RPi must be able to provide at leat 1.5 A at 5Volt. Dont go for a cheap powersupply, it wont cope with the power drain from the ROi.

[pepson]

@mickecarlsson

Hi
my bug lenght antenna is 86mm. Sorry.
Power for RPI is very good and original raspberry manufacturer provide about 2,5A

After my tests only on MySensors 2.2.0 on Gateway and on Nodes 2.2.0 with NEW_DRIVER all works ok.

In other like gateway 2.3.0 and node 2.2.0 or 2.3.0 with NEW_DRIVER or without NEW_DRIVER not working correct.

I dont must use NEW_DRIVER, but when i write sketch to my node without option NEW_DRIVER, it no working. I tested some combination...mix. Gateway 2.3.0 or 2.2.0 with node 2.2.0 and 2.3.0 and Only with NEW_DRIVER works ok and only on 2.2.0 on node and gateway.

And is any chance to run gateway on RPI3 but on old default driver not with NEW DRIVER ?

Anybody has any solution for my problem with communication on version 2.3.0 ?

[mickecarlsson]

I just checked all my nodes:

1. Garage - measures temperature/humidity and power usage - uses NEW_DRIVER, Arduino UNO, powered all times.
2. Storage - measures temperature/humidity and power usage - uses NEW_DRIVER, Arduino UNO powered all times.
3. Greenhouse - measures temperature/humidity - uses "old" driver, Arduino Pro Mini, battery powered.
4. Patio - measures temperature/humidity - uses "old" driver, Arduino Pro Mini, battery powered.
5. Bedroom - measures temperature/humidity - uses "old" driver, Arduino Pro Mini, battery powered.
6. Kitchen area - measures temperature/humidity - uses "old" driver, Arduino Pro Mini, battery powered.

My nodes are within 40 meters from the gateway.
I will no reprogram the node 4 and 5 to use the new driver to see if that makes any difference.
Node 1 and 2 are the nodes farthest away from the gateway, there is one brick wall and three wood walls between the node and the gateway.

[pepson]

@mickecarlsson
Please also for all points give info what version MySensors use and if you can upload your sketches for all point.

And Gateway has on RPI3 with version 2.3.0 ? By Serial or ethernet ? And tell me with what controller you use it ? I use with Home Assistant.

And BTW tell me how long Arduino Mini Pro work for you on battery and what battery you use ... and show your project... Did you remove LED from Arduino to save power battery ?
In Sketch you measure % power from battery ? And send to controller ? What controller you use ?

@pepson @mickecarlsson
in theory, if I remember well, length of antenna should be:

• 86mm for 868mhz
• 82mm for 915Mhz
  Better check which frequency you can use where you live.

Also this is in ideal world, it depends on:

• antenna material

So when you want to tune your network, you could use a good, 868mhz for example, antenna on gateway (from a reliable supplier, as there are also a lot of unmatched antenna around).
Then you can try to tune emprically, by checking rssi vs length. Add length or cut, and check. If you need more or less length is dependant on above factors.

As already said, we don't recommand mixing new driver with older.. As packet has not the same format.
No eta for fixing rfm69 if issues, too busy for the moment, but we'll try asap.

Yes i have for my radio anntena 86mm.
On nodes and gateway i am sure that i use freq 868MHz.
Look on my command to build gateway and on my sketches node.
On version 2.2.0 i use gateway (as people write by my command i use NEW DRIVER) and also on node also use NEW DRIVER and in this solution all works perfect with no problem.

When i update gateway and node to 2.3.0 also with NEW DRIVER i have a problem that controll node and connection is no stabilish. In my Home Assistant sometimes i can controll relay but sometimes no reaction on click by Home Assistant. When use on node old driver (but on gateway NEW DRIVER) it is no working. Only on version 2.2.0 on gatewy and node all works perfect.

Is any chance to build gateway on RPI3 with old driver to RFM69HW ? Because as people write in default building on gateway on RPI3 use NEW DRIVER and we can not change it.... It is true ?

My comments about tuning antenna were general, it can be useful for optimizing your network.

I already read what you said previously ;) It should be normal that new&old driver not working together (unless a recent change..).

We'll take a look at which changes are incorrect. I'm using experimental local mysensors version, so I'm a bit off topic regarding official release and no time for debugging, for the moment, as like I said we'll try to check that asap.

Regarding RPI, I'm not using it as gw (I prefer a lower power gw that i can place where i want) so I'm not sure. Take it with a pinch of salt but if i remember, old rfm69 driver spi functions etc are not adapted to linux (whereas new driver is)

If 2.3 is blocking, do you need a particular fix in 2.3 ? Else you could stick to 2.2
