    @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.

    @samuel235 I changed the view like this:
    0_1456012839470_upload-8e46b7f5-cc01-4f76-b951-46f0a30beebd

    Then it shows like this:
    0_1456012880471_upload-37f9b436-520e-4991-936e-b01e68f34510

    I am using version 2.8.30.0 and I downloaded them from the FTDI site.

          @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

                        hi again, I noticed that domoticz would lose connection to the Gateway when I would ask one of the nodes to restart. Is that expected behavior?
                        For example when I want to introduce a new node/code to domoticz, the moment I hit reboot on some node domoticz would report that it has lost TCP connection with the gateway and it would wait 30s or something and then reconnect to the gateway, which is ok to restart but it will then miss the introduction/presentation data sent by the sensor. This is one of the coolest features of MysController, to update and reset remote nodes, without the need to reopen all the nodes and hitting reset or removing the battery etc.
                        Anyone noticing this, is there some workaround for this?

                          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.

                          Hi tekka,

                          I have tested MYSController, and it was a massive success ! thanks a lot for your work.

                          I have just one question, in the csv file there is a type.
                          According to my reading this is to tag a node type, but where are the already known types ?
                          Type 1 => only temperature
                          Type 2 => only humidity
                          Type 3 => temp & hum
                          etc
                          Is there another config file where to specify user types ?

                            @hek - would it be possible to get a subforum for MYSController stood up in the Controllers forum? This thread is getting pretty long and off topic (also, the RSS feed stops at the 27th post)

                                I have just one question, in the csv file there is a type.
                                According to my reading this is to tag a node type, but where are the already known types ?
                                Type 1 => only temperature
                                Type 2 => only humidity
                                Type 3 => temp & hum
                                etc
                                Is there another config file where to specify user types ?

                                Type,Name,Version,File,Comments
                                10,Blink,1,Blink.hex,blinking example
                                20,TimeReporter,1,TimeReporter.hex,TimeReporter
                                100,Sensebender Micro,1,SensebenderMicro.cpp.hex,Sensebender Micro
                                110,Sensebender Blink,1,SensebenderBlink.cpp.hex,Sensebender Blink

                                @DomoJimbo No, you are free to choose the node types. This information is used for OTA FW updates.

                                  Hello,

                                  for Linux, it works with wine, with TCP and serial.

                                  regards
                                  Thomas

                                    For completeness, here are the MYSBootloader instructions for OTA updates via MYSController:

                                    1. Load gw sketch and connect arduino either via serial or ethernet port. No special bootloader needed for that part (i.e. standard optiboot bootloader will do the job).

                                    2. Add these lines to the boards.txt file in your Arduino IDE installation folder (located somewhere like C:/Program Files/Arduino/hardware/arduino/avr)

                                      proMYSBL16.name=ATmega328 external 16Mhz with MYSBootloader

                                      proMYSBL8.build.board=AVR_UNO
                                      proMYSBL8.build.core=arduino
                                      proMYSBL8.build.variant=standard

                                    3. Copy MYSBootloader.hex (from MYSController/Bootloader folder) to the Arduino IDE installation folder C:/Program Files/Arduino/hardware/arduino/avr/bootloaders/MySensors/

                                    4. Restart Arduino IDE, choose under Tools | Board | ATmega328 external 16Mhz with MYSBootloader or Tools | Board | ATmega328 internal 8Mhz with MYSBootloader depending on your HW settings

                                    5. Connect USBasp to sensor node and select Tools | Burn Bootloader

                                    6. If everything worked well until here, you now have the MYSBootloader with the fuse settings from above burnt to your sensor node (16Mhz extXTAL or 8Mhz intRC, BOOTSZ 1024W, BOD 1V8).

                                    7. Please use the AVR fuse calculator to retrieve the individual fuse settings. If you need to change frequency, BOD or other settings, change the fuse settings based on the fuse calculator.
                                      Important: The MYSBootloader.hex file was compiled for 16Mhz oscillators but it should also work at 8Mhz. If you intend to go below 8Mhz, I highly recommend to compile the bootloader with adjusted frequency settings.

                                    8. Start MYSController, hit config and adjust settings (COM-Port & baud or IP address:port)

                                    9. Hit connect: Connection to gateway should be established (gateway answers with gateway ready message), the node should appear and request an ID & FW.

                                    10. Right-mouse click on that node, select assign FW, choose for example **TimeReporter ** (demo firmware included in the MYSController/Firmware folder). Then click reboot and wait until FW is uploaded and node boots.

                                    11. TimeReporter firmware reports every few seconds some values such as time, millis, and voltage.

                                    12. Custom firmware: compile your sketch and retrieve the generated .hex file (activate verbose mode in the Arduino IDE to get compiler messages and output path).

                                    13. Copy .hex file to MYSController/Firmware folder and edit firmware_config.csv file according to the existing lines.

                                    14. Hit Refresh Repo in MYSController and the newly copied firmware should appear in the Assign FW dropdown list, ready to be uploaded.

                                    Have fun :)

                                    I'Ve done the steps witch you describe but it doesn't show up in the ArduinoIDE.
                                    Step 1, added the lines to boards.txt
                                    Step 2, made a directory \MySensors under
                                    D:\Program Files\Arduino\hardware\arduino\avr\bootloaders
                                    Step 3, copied the .hex file into D:\Program Files\Arduino\hardware\arduino\avr\bootloaders\MySensors

                                    What did i do wrong???

                                      @MarkV you might want to check your "AppData" folder, I noticed the same behaviour and had to change boards.txt in this location.

                                      C:\Users{{user}}\AppData\Local\Arduino15\packages\arduino\hardware\avr\1.6.10

                                        Guys,

                                        I'm trying to get this working with my nano clone but am having no luck.

                                        When I flash the boot loader the nano doesn't send the request (the light on the nano comes on red and stays on).

                                        I'm presuming it's because I haven't updated the fuse settings etc for the nano? Would someone be so kind as to offer some help with regards what I need to change?

                                        Edit: I'm up and running!

                                          Did anyone figure out how to get MySensors debug messages to show? My sketch has debug uncommented and I can see them via serial, but not in the app?
