Hello, let me shortly give you my 5 cents about this topic.

I have since 1.5 years a roller blind solution up and running. The logic is based upon the solution of @scalz.

It uses standard Becker (similar quality as Somfy) motors 4 wired, that normally has an indoor switch unit. I chose this since significantly cheaper than any radio controlled solution, and absolutely robust. Definitely a plus for something firmly built into the walls.

For control I have hubs for 4 windows each. They include mysensors, Arduino, and an 8 pcs relay board. Enabling of setting individual positioning by counting time. The total run time is adjustable through mysensors commands. This proved to be for me a simple but very reliable method. I can set any percentage, or even stop, and then it reports actual state. The complete ecosystem is within an openHAB controller, thus I can set automated rules, e.g. go down at the local dusk time, or gently wake up just by go up a bit.
Code is here available: https://github.com/krejcarek/mysensors

Overal very happy with the setup. Two issues I experienced:

• some struggle with range, and unreliable transfer in mesh
• the units are in the attic. In winter I experience some unreliable operation, some units "freeze". Can be literally, or due to some solder quality issues, not sure yet what is causing it.

Hello,
Not sure if it is related to the above mentioned ACK issue... I have some distanced actuators, and was heavily relying on the repeated message send if no ACK. I habe the impression with this upgrade, it does not work as before. Can it be the case?

@TimO, Thanks for the quick response. Probably was some stupid mistake with copying.jar file. Got mine now on 2.0.0.201701181308, and works like charm.
Hoping to have mysensors soon as official binding to avoid the need of workarounds and thus prone to mistakes.

I ran into trouble today by apt-get updating Openhab.

I am over redefining the Distro for Snapshot... I have 2.0.0-SNAPSHOT, Build #743 up and running.

my bundle list looks following:
204 | Active | 80 | 3.12.0.OH | nrjavaserial
205 | Installed | 80 | 2.0.0.201611221149 | MySensors Binding

Still getting these errors:
"03:17:10.911 [ERROR] [org.openhab.binding.mysensors ] - FrameworkEvent ERROR - org.openhab.binding.mysensors
org.osgi.framework.BundleException: Could not resolve module: org.openhab.binding.mysensors [205]
Unresolved requirement: Require-Bundle: org.openhab.io.transport.serial"

Any idea for next step?

Hi there,

I am building my sensor network with roughly 20+ nodes in an Openhab serial GW environment, with NRF24 communication.

For future compatibility and versatility I would like to use Auto-ID feature, though in my understanding the core implementation must be in OpenHAB.

My goal is to burn a unique identifier into the nodes, which could eventually be identical to the soft serial for security. The mapping between the node and the location/function should be based on this identifier in OpenHAB. Goal is to keep the node-ID "abstract".

Currently looking for good examples - does anyone have working implementation of auto-ID function in a similar environment?

Thanks!
