MySensors 2.3.0 released

[itbeyond]

Hum I am not sure what the deal is here but I have spent the last two days updating and then removing 2.3.0 from Gateways and Repeaters. It completely trashed my 22 node network. I still have some 2.3.0 nodes running but if I installed 2.3.0 and setup #define MY_REPEATER_FEATURE my nodes would crash within about 30 mins of booting. Also on the gateway the through-put of the radio RF24 died to a crawl. I was trying to OTA my nodes and they were going line by line for about 60mins or more each (MYSController). I simply went back to 2.2.0 on Ethernet Gateway made NO other configuration changes and the nodes flashed in less than a minute each.

Since removing 2.3.0 from gateway and repeaters the whole network appears to have stabilised again.

Thank you for your great work on this project. It is the best project for most of us to build a cheap and reliable wireless iot network.
I am stuck at version 1.5 with my home network. I have several repeaters and even more nodes. I have some quite complex nodes so I decided to make the version update slowly. My system can't be stopped for days.
I plan to operate the 1.5 and the 2.3 network parallel and change the nodes one by one.
The system runs on Domoticz using a serial gateway. First I will add a new serial gateway (2.3) and I will start to migrate the nodes.
Can I keep the node_ids in Domoticz to keep the controller-side scripts unchanged?
Can you suggest the best way to migrate everything?

With released 2.3.0 is many problem with communication on radio RFM69HW. On 2.2.0 this problem is no available.

@pvoj Domoticz will reassign internal sensor id's to each sensor it sees on the new gateway.

One way could be to use nodered in front of domoticz, and create some basic mysensors dual gateway routing, so domoticz only sees one gateway. I did this when I was running domoticz as controller. (I have now switched completely to nodered).

Hello,

please, how to revert from v2.3 to 2.2 on rpi? I started to have a problem with stability/freezing of my raspberry pi 3 after installing v 2.3, and I am not sure if it has something to do with new Mysensors v2.3. I need to elaborate a bit but I don't know how to use Git clone to get older version. I have no skills with git.
Many thanx.

@mirikbb you can download all versions from https://www.mysensors.org/download

Hi
I have MSGW 2.1.0 version on arduino
today I was install RPi3 MSGW 2.3.0
Can I work with sensors 2.1.0 or need to upgrade all ?
Thank you

Please modify source !!!!! 2.1.1 2.2.0 2.3.0

Solved - user error 🙂
Inside the Raspberry Pi setup (file /MySensors/examples_linux/mysgw.cpp), the inclusion mode define must be added:
#define MY_INCLUSION_MODE_FEATURE
This is present in the Serial & Ethernet gateway example ino files, just missing from the Raspberry Pi version as it is on GitHub.

With this added, the response to the StartInclusion mode request is then received & everything is fine:

TX(fromController) 0;0;3;0;5;1
RX(fromRaspberryPiGateway) 0;255;3;0;5;1
On the plus side, by working this out I'm a lot more familiar with the workings of MySensors!

Cheers!

@cadet looks like it is already present: https://github.com/mysensors/MySensors/blob/master/examples_linux/mysgw.cpp#L73
Or am I missing something?

[cadet]

@mfalkvidd ok its present
But I spend two days to find it

I finally took my time to update my Serial GW from 2.2.0 to 2.3.0.
Nothing came in from my nodes after I update.
I have nodes with 2.1.1 and 2.2.0.

Is there anything that I should change for update from 2.2.0 to 2.3.0, any settings in config?

Went back to 2.2.0 and immediately data came in from my nodes.

Anyone?

I recently upgraded my NRF24 serial gateway from 1.5 to 2.3.0 and did not have any issues. I upgraded my RFM69 gateway a while ago with no issues. If it is RFM 69, check the frequency because MyConfig.h will have gone back to the default (I use 915 mhx which is not default). Do you get any error messages? Maybe one of the more experienced MySensors users could help with those.

Thank you, you put me in the right direction.
I created a network for my friend(on 2.3)on different channel than I use, I didn’t change the channel in myconfig.h before I updated my GW

Hi,
Some time ago, I've updated RPi gateway on NF24 from 2.2 to 2.3
Now I see that OTA stopped working.
I had to go back to version 2.2.
On version 2.3 in log I see a lot of FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF data and rebooting, over and over again.

Did anyone have a similar problem?
