@jvdk I agree with the point made by @evb , why would you want to wire connect the ultrasonic node rather than the usual radio connection ? You are adding levels of complexity and power demands for what reason ?
My ultrasonic water tank node (pro-mini+rfm69) is now 2 years on the same 2xAA batteries sending in levels every hour (RTC), the only problem encountered - condensation forming a drip on the face of the ultrasonic head during very low temperatures.
@Søren-Heide-Larsen different networks can be achieved by setting different channels / network ID.
See here for NRF24 and here for RFM69.
There is no pairing function in MySensors.
Hello,
I want to build this project. But I don't need to power it by batteries. Has anyone the circuit diagram (in FrizIng?)
I have also the problem, that I can't see, on the breadboard picture of this project where the red wire from the battery ends after the connection to the Arduino?
Does it go to the FET and the R7?
Can anyone help me?
Hey there @Chaotic ! This is Fay from codebender.cc Thank you for using codebender! I just wanted to let you know that one of the sketches you are using in this comment has been deleted and so it is not available for users to view it. Let me know if you have any question.
I'm not familiar with the project that inspired this one, but you should pay attention to hot spots, heat should be equally spread across the whole plate.
plus you should have good sensors and provide controllable configuration of heat points for soldering different components according to the manufacturer's datasheet.
