RFM69 new driver delay

[pepson]

@kimot

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.

This is my sketch.

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.

@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
• gnd plane size
• etc

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 ?

[scalz]

@pepson
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

[mickecarlsson]

OK,
Here goes what I have:
Arduino Pro Mini, chinese clones. Regulator and led removed. Soldered on EasyPCB rev 9.
Radio is RFM69 868 MHz with helicoil antenna on the nodes, 86 mm antenna on the Gateway
Bootloader is from https://github.com/MCUdude/MiniCore
The bootloader settings are:
Board: ATmega328
Bootloader: Yes
Variant: 328P / 328PA
BOD: 1.8v
Clock: 1MHz internal
Compiler LTO: Disabled (default)

On the EasyPCB I have only soldered the radio, the antenna and the Arduino. No booster, no capacitors, no resistors.
I have put a link on the REG and run the node on two AA batteries.
The nodes only have one sensor, the BME280.

The controller I use is Domoticz, latest version (I think).

I have now reprogrammed some of the nodes to 2.30 and I use NEW_DRIVER.
Gateway - 2.3.0
Patio - 2.3.0
Test-node - 2.3.0
Kitchen - 2.3.0
Bedroom - 2.3.0
UV and LUX - 2.3.0

No problems at all.
However, I do not use the receive() function on my nodes.
And I see that you use the REPEATER setting, if your node can reach the gateway the disable repeater.

[pepson]

@mickecarlsson

Tell me for what you change bootloader ? And i also have clone chine arduino pro mini... I also must change bootloader on this Arduino Pro Mini CLONE CHINA ? Because i dont change bootloader after buy...

And if you can show also your antenna...and where you buy this antenna ? I try found on Aliexpres but not found.

And I see that you use the REPEATER setting, if your node can reach the gateway the disable repeater.
But i can not use REPEATER function to to increase the range from the gate - something like the MESH network ?

And is any chance to you test my SKETCH with relay on your arduino ?

[mickecarlsson]

You don't ned to change bootloader, I do because I run on battery and it fits my need.
I can't test your sketch as I don't have the necessary hardware to test it.
How far apart are your nodes?
My antenna is from AliExpress

[pepson]

@mickecarlsson
Now my node is very near my Gateway about 6meters. Because now i project my automation in my new home.

But if you only have Arduino Pro Mini with Radio RFM69HW you can test my sketch. I think that you dont need 2xrelay to test it... Please...

But for what is function REPEATER ? To increase range from Gateway to very far node ? Then the node with the repeater function extends the range?

When come back to home i try build node without option REPEATER and try run this...

Also can you give on priv info how upload this bootloader ? I can only write by ArduinoIDE or i must do other actions ?

[mickecarlsson]

You only need repeater fi you have a node far away that can’t reach the gateway, then you add repeater on a node nearer the gateway.
See here: MySensors Network
And if the node has repeater defined it must allways have power and no Sleep.
Sorry, I can’t test the sketch.

[pepson]

@mickecarlsson
Can you share me your all sketches ? Thanks
And tell me how you have connected Gateway to RPI3? By ethernet or by serial ? Because i see in your building Gateway that you dont use parameter ETHERNET on port 5003

And anybody has any contact to developer @tekka007 ?

@mickecarlsson I done next test.
Updated my Gateway on RPI3 to 2.3.0
Then also update my nodes to 2.3.0
One node which i use is to control Switch Relay. It works ok also with Repeater function and also without Repeater function.
Second node is to control cover by relay. It no working correct also with Reapeater and also without Repeater function. Status is not update in the same time. Sometimes no respod reaction on click button.

Below i see SWITCH releay SKETCH and also to Cover.
Please help me.
Also i need help to convert this sketch for Switch 1xRelay to Switch 2x Releay. ANybody can help me. ?

Finally
In my opinion on MySensors 2.2.0 all my sketches (switch relay and cover ) works better. With no problem. NO PROBLEM.
Cover works perfect and switch works perfect without any timeout and delay. ANd all node works without REPEATER.
My opinion is that in version 2.3.0 something not working correct with radio RFM69HW.
Maybe for sensors which send data from time to time is ok , but for cover which transfer data when cover is roll, it is problem... and gateway can not recived all data when node send position cover. Maybe developer read this thread and can do any changes to correct it.

@mickecarlsson

ANd tell me how you connect Gateway to your Domoticz Controller ? What path to usb or serial you setup in Domoticz ?

@pepson said in RFM69 new driver delay:

Like I said, we will take a look as soon as we get time. For the moment, busy (at least on my side). And we're a few, using rfm69.
So if 2.2 fixes your issue, it can be a good idea.

@scalz

Ok thanks. WAiting for info... and good info for me will be that problem with RFM69HW on version 2.3.0 will be resolve and i can update to this version. Now i must come back to version 2.2.0

If you don't need specific features in 2.3, then stick to 2.2 that works well.
