@martinhjelmare Thanks, you post helped me in the right direction for a problem I had My hass also would not register a sensor and it's solved now.

Hi there, I had a similar problem gw and sensor saw each other but the sensor did not get an id. Later I found that the controller hands out the id's, not the gateway. So when I connected the controller to the gw and configured it to use the gw arduino it worked. Not sure if this is your problem also but just in case
Greets,

Thanks all for the advice. I cleared the eeprom and pushed the sketch again. The arduino does get a new device_id so that worked. After unplugging it from power and putting it back on I got the same message however and no readings.

I found however that another sensor I have that is working and sending readings also gives a 'child_id already exists warning' when I powercycle it. So now I am thinking that the warning is normal behaviour when an already registered sensor comes back online.
Than I compared the serial output in de log parser (amazing what a handy thing that is) with output from a working sensor.
I noticed that everything looks the same upto the the line

Callback setup()

My not working sensor gave no more output after that but the working sensor continued by sending a reading and going to sleep.
So I suspect there is something wrong with the sensor or sketch causing it to never correctly initialize.

@gohan I just tried that but still getting the same reply.
I am wondering where this message points to.
I.E. where the child_id is found. Is this a mysensors issue ? Or does this come from the controller ?

Hello all,
I'm having a problem when I want to add a new sensor. Using mysensors 2.1.1. and try to register the 'PressureSensor' sketch from the MySensorsArduinoExamples git repository and have a bmp180 sensor connected.
I know the MySensorsArduinoExamples repository is a 'use at own risk' area but I checked the sketch and it looks to be properly formed.

What happens is that every time I try to add a sensor I get a message like this in the homeassistant logs :

WARNING:mysensors:child_id 0 already exists in children of node 8, cannot add child

The debug log on the arduino gives :

So the arduino tries to register but somehow it doesn't work. I ran the log parser and the last 2 lines of the output mean

Registration response received, registration status 1
Callback setup()

Which I don't know what it means.
In all of the homeassistant database and persistence file there is no record of a node 8 anywhere so it seems to come from mysensors...
Anyone has an idea of what could be the reason failing registration ?
Thanks in advance

Hello, I am having an issue with a sensor with a BMP180 sensor. I can't get the sensor to properly register it seems.
A fews months ago I tested the same arduino with bmp180 with a modified PressurSensor sketch from the MySensorsArduinoExamples git repo.
Now I wanted to load the normal PressureSensor sketch with also has a weather prediction included.

I loaded the PressureSensor sketch on the arduino and it starts but in the HomeAssistant logs i get a message like this :

Sep 09 15:59:05 keo hass[18926]: WARNING:mysensors:child_id 1 already exists in children of node 6, cannot add child

So I stopped HA and deleted the whole '6' device from the persistence/mysensors.json
Started HA and switched on the sensor, same message.
I record all the readings in a mysql database so I thought maybe that could be the problmen so I deleted the old recordings of the '6_*' entity_id from the states table, stopped HA, removed the '6_' entries from persistence file and switched on the arduino.. Same message again.
So it appears HA or the gateway arduino already finds the devices somewhere and therefore can't add the new ones. But I fail to see why that is.

Here is the output of the serial terminal from when I load the sketch on the sensor.

Is there anything I am missing here ?
Any pointers are appreciated

@martinhjelmare Thanks, you post helped me in the right direction for a problem I had My hass also would not register a sensor and it's solved now.

Hi Madhias, would you mind sharing your final sketch ?
I am trying to get the very same thing working right now and am very new to programming for arduino's.
Thanks in advance

Hi there, I had a similar problem gw and sensor saw each other but the sensor did not get an id. Later I found that the controller hands out the id's, not the gateway. So when I connected the controller to the gw and configured it to use the gw arduino it worked. Not sure if this is your problem also but just in case
