./configure --my-transport=nrf24 --my-gateway=mqtt --my-controller-ip-address=[IP-OF-MY-RPI] --my-mqtt-publish-topic-prefix=mysensors-out --my-mqtt-subscribe-topic-prefix=mysensors-in --my-mqtt-client-id=mygateway1

Hi thanks for the quick reply.

I checked the NRF24 module by communicating with each other and it works fine...so I don't think the problem is with the module.

I attached 2 photos of my wiring of the NRF with my Pi so you can have a look.

As for error messages while "make" - none.

Here is the output of make:

Would you know what I am doing wrong? :(

I really want to get this to work.

Thanks again in advance.

@kkanedaa it looks like the "adapter board" you're using for the nrf24 has got an LDO on it. Is that the case? If so, is 3.3V sufficient for it? If you used it when you checked that the nrf24 works then it should be fine. But just to try to eliminate possible problem sources, how about connecting the nrf24 directly to the raspberry pi?

It is recommended to place the capacitor as close to vcc/gnd on the nrf24 as possible. I see on the picture that it is placed at the input to the adapter board.

mfalkvidd

The connections on the raspberry pi side look good. I can't see if the connections to the adapter board are correct because I'm not familiar with that board. Would you mind posting a photo where the adapter board silkscreen / labels are visible?

I dont know if it's important, but your configure didn't detect the BCM chip for SPI?
Did you enable SPI via raspi-config (or /boot/config.txt) ?

Hi there, thanks again for the reply :)

I have removed the baseboard and attached the wires directly to the NRF24. I also moved the capacitor to Pi's VCC and GND.

As for the baseboard, if you are wondering, the layout looks like this. I always used it in all my NRF projects and never seemed to have a problem.

Yep, SPI is enabled. Otherwise I would get error message while executing "make" (I guess). But thanks for trying to help :)

I will try to get MySensors running now once again and let you guys know the results. Hope it will work this time...

kkanedaa

Nope....still same error message....

What am I doing wrong? :(

kkanedaa

@mfalkvidd Should I try to use the dev version? Also, should I "format" my SD card with a fresh install of Raspbian Stretch Lite?

Do you think this might help?

Also, it does not matter if my Pi runs the controller and MySensors at the same time, right?

mickecarlsson

Download the development version of MySensors and try that. I could not get MySensors to work on a RPI 3 with the 2.1.1 version.

gohan

There is a note in the raspberry page to use development version. BTW, did you connect the 5v pin to the nrf24 module? It seems so from the picture and if it's the case, say bye-bye to it. Also the capacitor it is better to be closer to the radio module and not on the raspberry gpio

mikee

I had same problem (but on serial GW). It started after I removed IRQ connector. I was able to add devices (using Domoticz as controller) , bust after few hours it stops to work.

gohan

I'm using irq pin without issues

I will try with the dev version and let you guys know again.

Nope, it's connected to 3.3V. Regarding the capacitor, I had it first near the NRF24, but mfalkvidd told me to move it.

But thank you for your inputs, guys. I'll try the dev version and hope it will work.

mfalkvidd

@kkanedaa sorry for being unclear. I meant closer to the nrf24, not further away from it.

kkanedaa

This post is deleted!

Hey all,

So I removed the stable version of MySensors and got the development version.

Let me show you step by step what I did:

sudo rm -r MySensors
git clone https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors.git --branch development
cd MySensors

./configure --my-transport=nrf24 --my-gateway=mqtt --my-controller-ip-address=[MY-PI-IP] --my-mqtt-publish-topic-prefix=mysensors-out --my-mqtt-subscribe-topic-prefix=mysensors-in --my-mqtt-client-id=mygateway1

make
sudo ./bin/mysgw -d

[MY-PI-IP] has been changed to my RPI's IP.

The output I got first is this:

Now I have a problem with the gateway. Did I configure something wrong? Or did I forget a step?

All help is very much appreciated :)

I struggled with RPi gateway for ages without success. The easiest solution by far is to run the gateway on arduino and interface it to RPI through a serial gateway. Its not a very elegant solution but works. I did some investigation and came to the conclusion that the problem with RPi gateway is to do with the low level library that communicates with the radio but never found a fix.

Hi, thanks for your answer.

If you are telling me that you have had the same issues as me, I am willing to do your method. True, not an elegant solution but I just want it to get up and running...

When you say "run the gateway on arduino and interface it to RPI through a serial gateway", do you mean you built a serial gateway as mentioned here: https://www.mysensors.org/build/serial_gateway and then with an USB cable you connect it directly to your RPI? Am I understanding this correct?

If yes, could you please tell me which parameters you have used while building your MySensors on your RPI. Would this be correct:

./configure --my-transport=nrf24 --my-gateway=serial --my-serial-is-pty --my-serial-pty=/dev/ttyMySensorsGateway

Did you leave the value for --my-serial-pty was shown above? Did you add any other parameters?

Sorry for asking so many questions but I cannot fully grasp the concept of MySensors without MQTT.

I appreciate your response and thank you in advance :)

I've been running the Ethernet gateway (port 5003) on my raspi without issues for several months now.

@kkanedaa It looks like the development version finally works with your nrf module. Regarding the MQTT connection refused: Are you sure your MQTT broker does not need a username and password?

@grdl on rpi3 is running fine, I have 2 radio modules too

This weekend a had also issues with nrf24 on rpi3. I'm using openhabian image and it was all working ok. But my sd card got corrupted and i had to reinstall openhabian. So I downloaded the newest image burned and ran my setup script - which should give me running and restored setup of OpenHAB, MySensors and couple more. But mysensors didn't work ... I found that the mysgw was failing to initialise nrf module (!TSM:INIT:TSP FAIL) - wierd because even with the binary that was working in previous setup i got the same error ... same hardware only new software ... So I connected my oscilloscope to spi pins and to my amazement there was no life on MOSI pin ... I even try with python to send something trough SPI - the same result. Then I compiled the mysgw with BCM driver ... and it worked ! Even better, I recompiled again with SPIDEV driver AND STILL WORKED !!!

So @kkanedaa try to compile with BCM driver - maybe it will work, for me it did.

Cannot run MySensors on RPI 3
