Vera Inclusion Issue



  • Inclusion not working. This seems to happen every time something changes i.e. MySensors version change, my ip scheme changes, phase of the moon, my brain farts etc. I'm guessing this is more a Vera/MySensors plugin issue than a GW problem but I've be wrong at least once in my life. Well maybe a few more times than one, maybe.

    The GW and the Vera both responed to a pings.

    I started by cleaing the GW's flash. I'm on MySensors 2.2.0 and Vera 1.7.3500. I using an Arduino Genuino Uno as a Eithernet 5100 GW with all the latest Arduino software and I downloaded the latest Arduino/Vera plugin's Ver. 1.5. This has worked in the passed. Normally in the Vera inclusion area the "Stop" button will be lit and when you press the "Start" button it will stay lit for the inclusion time of 60 sec. Right now neither one is lit and neither one will stay lit. They do light up if you hover over one of them. The 5100 is a Shield. The same Setting tab show the following

    At startup Serial Debug shows the following on the GW. As you can see the radio works just fine.

    Here is my GW sketch.
    //
    // My Vera 5100 GateWay V2.0 3/30/18
    // Must have Soft SPI Enabled and the Rasio pins moved
    // Also must have UDP Enabled
    //
    // * The GW code is designed for Arduino 328p / 16MHz. ATmega168 does not have enough memory to run this program.
    // *
    // * LED purposes:
    // * - To use the feature, uncomment WITH_LEDS_BLINKING in MyConfig.h
    // * - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
    // * - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
    // * - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error
    // *
    // * See http://www.mysensors.org/build/ethernet_gateway for wiring instructions.
    // *

  • When I started off and knew nothing about the MySensors system and was in the same spot as you (I didn't know what if anything worked). It was suggested i try the webserver example on the gateway. This would make sure the GW is talking to the LAN.

    Then I made a simple counting sketch on my node that counted from 0 to 250 in steps of 5, sending the count to my VeraPlus using the Multimeter Voltage parameter.

    Maybe this helps.
