    @fets Yes, indeed, I made some progress during the last weeks. Today I finally found a way to display these debug messages. Took me months. See this thread: http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/2392/how-to-properly-debug-serial-gateway-nrf24l01
    I think my serial gateway was somehow badly connected. During the past weeks I verified everything, re-soldered, tested various power supplies and radio modules, etc. Now it seems to work usually stable. But not always. Now I am playing around with increasing the sending power of the radio modules.

    I am using a pi 2.

    Interesting, your problem sounds very similar. Unfortunately I do not really have any advice. Maybe try to build a duplicate and see if this works better?

      Hi everyone,
      I installed Pimatic and it looks work just fine.
      In the Config menu I added the codes below.
      Saved and restarted the Pimatic.
      I see "Light Unknown%" on the frontpage.
      How can I fix that? Thanks....

      {
        "plugin": "mysensors",
        "driver": "serialport",
        "protocols": "1.5.1",
        "startingNodeId": 1,
        "driverOptions": {
          "//": "'/dev/ttyUSB0' if using serial Gateway",
          "serialDevice": "/dev/ttyMySensorsGateway",
          "baudrate": 115200
        }
      }
      

      ],

          Hi,
          Thanks for the answer.
          1-I installed Pimatic.
          2-I installed Serial Gateway on the Arduino Nano.
          3-I installed the Light sketch from MySensors on the Nano.

          Pimatic logs look like below. It seems it doesnt receive any signal.
          I think there is someting wrong with the USB port...
          Are my USB port settings coreect?
          You can see MySensors plugin settings above.

               }
             }
            

            You may want to double check that config.
            It should be more like:

             {
               "plugin": "mysensors",
               "driver": "serialport",
               "protocols": "1.5.1",
               "startingNodeId": 1,
               "driverOptions": {
                 "serialDevice": "/dev/ttyUSB0",
                 "baudrate": 115200
               }
             }
            

            if, ttyUSB0 is your connected arduino nano.

              I plugged the controller and light sensor on my pc.
              The controller receives and the sensor transmits signals.
              So, the hardware is OK.
              I changed the USB setting as "serialDevice": "/dev/ttyUSB0"
              But still no signal.
              Because I am new on RPi I cant set the USB corectly.
              My USB settings (lsusb -t) are like below:
              What is my USB port? USB0 or USB1 or other else?

              pi@raspberrypi:~ $ lsusb -t
              /: Bus 01.Port 1: Dev 1, Class=root_hub, Driver=dwc_otg/1p, 480M

                dmesg | grep tty
                

                Will give you an output like:
                ch341-uart converter now attached to ttyUSBXX

                  Oitzu thank you very much.
                  I solved the problem.
                  It was the nodeID. I set the nodeID to on the sketch to 15 and the problem solved.
                  Thanks for your help...

                    Hi everyone,
                    I installed Pimatic. It works fine...
                    I installed light sensor code from MySensor: http://www.mysensors.org/build/light
                    Light sensor works fine...
                    After that I intalled the Relay code: http://www.mysensors.org/build/relay
                    The relay doesnt work!!! Any idea for the problem???
                    When I turn the buton On/Off I can see the sending messages on debug.
                    Thanks!!!
                    Below are my Pimatic Config codes and debug messages:

                        I've seen the "protocol" line. Is it suitable for 2.0.0beta sketches ?

                          @rollercontainer the plug-in works fine with 2.0. You dont have to change the protocol value in the plug-in.

                                I second this. And also see if we can lose the dependency on serialport 2.0.6 so that we can use Node.js > 4.9.1
