Great! That worked. I was just trying to get it to work between the node and gateway, and the motion example didn't have the MY_NODE_ID in the example.

FYI: I do not think the Rpi gateway works with Openhab on the same unit. I have tried both the virtual serial port and mqtt, and neither will work with Openhab 1.83.

Unfortunately, no luck:(.

I created a virtual serial port using this ./configure --my-gateway=serial --my-serial-is-pty --my-serial-pty=/dev/ttyMySensorsGateway. I can see the port in the dev folder, but when I run dmesg I do not see it listed and therefore my openhab can not find it. How can I fix this?

Has anyone gotten the raspberry pi gateway to work with Openhab on the same raspberry pi? I have both the virtual and mqtt gateways working, but I can get either one to communicate with Openhab.

@jmmorgan83 The good news is I was able to create a virtual serial port (tty64) using the pi as a gataway. It communicats with my node without problems. Unfortunely, when I add the line "mysensors:port=/dev/tty64" in the openhab.cfg file I get an error stating it can not find /dev/tty64 even though I can see it in the /dev directory. Any ideas?
Thanks

I reset everything and ran it again. It did generate the file this time. Thanks, - Now to test it.

I followed the instruction above to make a mysgw file, but no file was generated.

I am trying to set up openhab 1.8_ on a raspberry pi using the pi as an Arduino gateway (i.e. I wired the NRF24L01 to the pi pins). I do not understand what "configure" commands I need to execute to get it to work with the openhab binding? Any help work be appreciated.

Great! That worked. I was just trying to get it to work between the node and gateway, and the motion example didn't have the MY_NODE_ID in the example.

I thought that node id is auto obtained from the gateway. How do I assign the node ID?
