Having trouble with my RPI MQTT gateway talking to my first sensor



  • Hello,

    Finally got my radios working properly with my RPI Gateway. I'm now having problems with my first homemade DHT11 Sensor which is connected to a NANO V3 with a NRF24 radio connecting to my gateway and talking. Both Radios have a 47uF Capacator between the VCC and GND on the Radio

    I used the code in http://smarthomeblog.net/diy-home-automation-sensors-first-node/

    This is what I'm getting in the Serial Monitor of Arduino ..

    And keeps on going to

    161233 TSM:FAIL:CNT=7
    161235 TSM:FAIL:DIS
    161238 TSF:TDI:TSL**

    This is what i'm reading through SSH...

    mysgw: TSF:MSG:READ,0-0-0,s=0,c=0,t=0,pt=0,l=0,sg=0:
    mysgw: !TSF:MSG:LEN,0!=7

    And keeps on going and going and going.

    Any ideas why it's not relaying information from the Gateway to the Sensor?


  • Mod

    could be fake clones of NRF24 radio modules



  • @gohan

    Right again! I got some other brands of radio modules that came today and tried them and they worked like a charm right away. Guess I wonโ€™t be buying the ones from makerfire on amazon again. The kuman worked so far and came in anti static bags. The other ones were just loose wrapped in plastic bubble wrap. I feel so stupid posting such an easy fix ๐Ÿ˜‚

    The first nrf24 I bought were the ones with blob on the pcb, I spent countless hours trying to understand why it wasn't working, then I figured that those were everything but nrf24 so returned them to Amazon and bought other fake clones that were working up to 6/7 meters and I got them refunded after 1 star review I made. Finally I got the good ones (more expensive of course), link in the shopping section of mysensors site.



  • @gohan

    The Ebyte nRF24L01+ Ones?

    Also, does MySensors get a commission off of the links provided in the store? I would much rather support you guys!


  • Mod

    Yes, those.

    Yes, MySensors does get a commission when using the links in the store (and most links in the forum).
