    Hi, just found this so downloaded and installed. Went to config to see what was there and selected TCP/IP tab to turn it off as it is not on a network and I only need Serial. The thing locks up and crashes and I have to use Task Manager to end it.

    Is there some way to start it without it trying to access 192.168.0.5?

    @NotTooTechy try setting

    TCPACTIVE=0
    

    in MYSController.ini

      Hello everyone,

      I am new to the forum, I really appreciate your community.

      I embarked on the adventure of MySensors and naturally, I leaned on OTA. To do so, I followed your tutorial but I have a problem when sending the FW on the node.

      My setup:
      • 1 Arduino Mega with nRF24L01+ which I use serial gateway
      • 1 Arduino mini pro 3.3 volts for 8 mhz node (single sketch that sends a random data every 5 seconds)
      • Arduino IDE 1.6.7
      • MySensors libraries 1.5.3
      • MYSController_0_1_2_282

      The mini pro flashed with the bootloader (MYSBootloader 1.1), I can detect through MYSController application where it is named "Booting: 65 ... - 65 ...", I right click on it and send the skit "blink" .

      Sometimes I manage to push the "blink" directly and other times must be repeated 2-3 times (that's a lot of times, I grant you ). What is troubling is that at that time, I see the LED 13 of the mini pro flashed at a steady pace, but in MYSController, it is always named "booting ..." and to name the sketch "null".

      Afterwards, when I try to put my sketch, it loads but still in a loop with an error when it reaches 100% "FW update on the failed node = 1" and then starts again at 0% and so on.

      I hope you will refer me.

      Thank you.

        Hi all,

        I've been working on this project since some time, basically it's a GUI for controlling/updating/debugging a network of MySensors nodes. OTA functionality is supported via MYSBootloader - read posts for further instructions/troubleshooting or PM.

        link updated: MYSController Version 1.0.0.3316 released

        New features:

        • support OTA FW update Sensebender board
        • metric/imperial system I_CONFIG
        • save nodes

        Update via update button in MYSController or download here.

        Using the SerialGateway:
        Is there a tutorial at all for using this? I can figure out a lot of stuff, but...

        Is it possible to assign the ID to a new node? I want to group Nodes numerically as in Area-1: = 10,11,12 then Area-2: = 20,21,22,23 etc
        How?

          Tutorial would be awesome :)
          I have a specific case that fails uploading sketch to 3.3v pro mini. I have a combined sketch which works fine if uploaded to 3.3v via cable, sketch also uploads fine OTA on 5v pro mini. When I try to upload sketch to 3.3v it fails eventually. If I upload "blink" from MysController, it uploads and works fine.
          I am suspecting that i am not flashing bootloader properly maybe. This is my boards.txt

          I can burn 5v bootloader with both "boards" from ArduinoIDE using Uno as ISP. And on two 5v I have, OTA works great, it is just 3.3v with larger sketch (sketch is combination of several sensors) that eventually gives

          I am using the latest stable version of mysensors on both gateway and when compiling the sketches.

          If someone can test this on 3.3v or can look at the code and perhaps figure out what could be the problem, I would really appreciate it.

          Keep up the great work guys, I am loving the mysensors&co projects!

            I'm having some issues with the MYSBootloader, I've uploaded a sketch perfectly with the ISP connection after burning the fuses and bootloader, all using the Arduino IDE. Now when i come to update the sketch using FTDI I can't upload due to a error of:

            avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding
            avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x0a
            

            I'm assuming the timing in my fuses have been incorrectly set. Could anyone shine some light onto this?

            The settings i used were L:0xE2 H:0xD8 E:0x06. The boards.txt reflects this too, its also set to 8Mhz, with a baud rate of 57600.

              Sorry, just getting around to try to get MYSController setup and I can't seem to get it sorted out to connect to my serial GW that is attached to my VeraLite.

              Here is what I have done to try to get connected:

              1. ssh into Vera and enter this command.
              ser2net -C 5003:raw:0:/dev/ttyACM0:115200
              

              I also tried

              ser2net -C 5003:raw:0:/dev/ttyUSB0:115200
              

              Next I launch MYSController on my PC and in the config window under TCP/IP tab set the IP to the IP of Vera and port to 5003.

              Hit connect and I get the following....

              2/17/2016 13:04:54	INFO	Connected to 192.168.0.108:5003
              2/17/2016 13:04:54	INFO	Unknown message, Msg=
              Port already in use by another process, dc=1
              2/17/2016 13:04:54	RX	
              Port already in use by another process
              

              For those of you have have done this before...any suggestion?

                I think you are supposed to be uploading the sketches OTA and they won't upload via USB anymore (unless I missed an update, which is possible).

                  @petewill - You are correct regarding no usb/ftdi uploads. Everything has to be done OTA. I'm using a standard arduino bootloader at the moment, attempting to troubleshoot ftdi with that :).

                    @samuel235 are you using a Windows PC to upload your sketches? FTDI recently released drivers that stops FTDI clones from working with the new drivers. This happened to me and my errors looked very similar. The solution for me was to uninstall the drivers and re-install the older ones. I got the info from this post: http://www.eevblog.com/forum/microcontrollers/ftdi-gate-2-0/msg854401/#msg854401

                    Also, I had to log in to my computer as an admin to make all these changes. For some reason using a standard account then typing in an admin password at the UAC prompt did not help. Maybe it was a coincidence but tried many times and only after doing it in admin context did I get it to work. Also, make sure you turn off Windows update for drivers. Let me know if you get stuck and I'll do my best to help.

                      @petewill - I am using a windows system. I was reading about this new driver release the other day and didn't think anything of it. I didn't realize that it could apply to myself when I was reading it.

                      Just out of curiosity, what does your FTDI converter come under in device manager, i always thought it was supposed to be a USB device, mine comes directly under Ports (COM & LPT). I know its obviously a port, I just for some reason thought it should be under Universal Serial Bus controller?

                      Just to let you know, windows hasn't automatically updated my drivers. I'm still on the search for an older version.

                              @petewill - Right okay, well my adapter is slightly different in the sense that it is all in one with a USB 2.0 adapter on the end of the board rather than a USB MiniB that you run a cable to the USB port on the PC. But apart from that the chip on-board is pretty much standard i think, from what i have found out on the internet anyway. Just for reference, this is what mine is http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161791651010?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT.

                              However, when purchasing some Arduino Mini Pros, i have gotten another. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161795041342?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT. We will see if they're both the same functionality when it arrives.

                                @samuel235 A quick way to test if it's your adapter or the drivers is to plug it in to a Mac or a Linux computer and try to upload from there.

                                  @petewill - As soon as my Mini Pros arrive I will start to troubleshoot this with more depth. Thank you :)

                                    @petewill I can also confirm that MYSController can coexist with Vera.
                                    I use node-red to abstract things. In my case, I want the Vera (and MYSController) to be left in the dark on how my controller is actually implemented and node-red is the ideal tool to do this.

                                    This is my "flow"
                                    upload-15f178c5-b7e4-4216-b469-301b48dcc060
                                    Using it, I can have either a serial or an ethernet gw without the controllers knowing.
                                    Instead, I create network serial pipes using socat that the controllers connect to.
                                    I can also filter out the debug prints from the gw if I want to examine something and also prevent them from "disturbing" the controllers (if they do not explicitly support the debug messages or gets bogged down by them).

                                    I still need to see if the node-red nodes support OTA since they key packets on '\n' currently which is not really "binary friendly" though, but for normal MySensors operation not involving binary streams, it works just fine :)

                                      @vikasjee not straight away as it contain pushbullet secrets so I need to launder it a bit first. And I have also changed it around in quite a bit and have added some experimental debugging facilities that don't really work so are you sure you still want it? :) if it is the multi controller support you are after it should still be a valid reference.

                                      Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

                                        You will need @tbowmo's mysensors node-red plugin for this flow. And be aware that the debug log management in this flow is NOT working as it is really supposed to.

                                        To create the socat pipes I use a number of shell scripts of this form executed as root:

                                        #!/bin/bash
                                        while sleep 1; do
                                                socat PTY,link=/dev/ttyVera,mode=666,group=dialout,raw TCP-LISTEN:5003,reuseaddr
                                        done
                                        

                                        Typically, you can invoke such a script using

                                        sudo ./socat_vera.sh &
                                        

                                        which would let the script execute in the background. The while loop make sure the pipe stays available even if there is nothing connected to it.

                                        For sure there are a lot of different things about this that can be improved and optimized, but that is what I am currently using in my testing environment.

                                        Do you feel secure today? No? Start requiring some signatures and feel better tomorrow ;)

                                          Ditto on the "very very cool" I looking for a app I could actually see what my sensor builds were doing. Prefect!
                                          Thanks
