      @johannes-schoeller
      hi im currently struggling with the same problem, i dont suppose you found a solution? i tried to do what martinhjelmare said but obviously i did it wrong. any help would be apreciated anyone. at the moment i have the mysprinkler for mysensor showing in home assistant and if i try start one of the relays it just goes to next relay but doesnt start. it shows on the display 0 sec and i cant find how to set how to put in time for the relays as im a noob lol. cheers

      i wish i would. i now 3d printed a case for it, got it all working so far, but can't make it announce the sensors in HA. no idea, why it worked before, and what's not working now ...

    • RE: mysprinkler for mysensor and home assistant not working together

      i investigated further and now i know that the sensor is requesting VAR_1 to VAR_3 and afaik this is not working with home assistant.
      any ideas how to circumvent this? i need to set the value in HA and then the sensor is requesting it. how would this be accomplished in HA?

      @martinhjelmare said in mysprinkler for mysensor and home assistant not working together:

      Also remove the mysensors sensor platform from your configuration yaml. That's not needed.

      you mean this form configuration.yaml:

      mysensors:
        gateways:
          - device: '/dev/ttyUSB0'
            baud_rate: 38400
            persistence_file: 'home/homeassistant/mysensors.json'
        optimistic: false
        persistence: true
        retain: true
        version: '2.0'
      

      or this from sensors.yaml:

      - platform: mysensors
          port: "/dev/ttyUSB0"
      

      EDIT: got is sorted out myself. NOT the configuration part is wrong, but the sensors.yaml part is too much. i removed it, and it works fine. thank you!!

      thanks that did work. basically it worked the very next day w/o changing anything. it just did send initial values. so problem solved.

      but i have another issue. now that everything is working so far, and i see the switch automatically added in my home assistant dashboard, i can use them and click them. this is seen by the sensor and it acts appropriately.

      but how the irrigation controller is meant to be used is: it ASKS the hub for data. this data is a) time (works!) and b) duration to activate each zone on button press.

      so it has 4 irrigation zones, each of them ca be assigned 2 values, one is how long it's turned on when activated alone, and one how long it's turned on when you run all zones, one after the other.

      but i don't know how to set those values in home assistant so i can send them back to the sensor.

      this is what the sensor looks like in home assistant:

      @martinhjelmare said in mysprinkler for mysensor and home assistant not working together:

      You need to send initial values for each device. That's what's missing.

      Also remove the mysensors sensor platform from your configuration yaml. That's not needed.

      thanks martin. i read that, but i have no idea how to send those initial values?
      is this something that i have to implement in the sensor's code?

      https://home-assistant.io/components/mysensors/#presentation says:

      Send at least one initial value per V_TYPE. In version 2.0 of MySensors this has to be done in the loop function.

      is it something like that?

          Serial.println("Sending initial value");
          send(msg.set(state?RELAY_ON:RELAY_OFF));
      

      if that is the case, i assume it's missing in the irrigation controller's code. correct?

    • mysprinkler for mysensor and home assistant not working together

      first of all i must admit that i'm quite a noob. so please forgive if my questions seem stupid.

      i built the irrigation system board, and it seems to work electronically. i also built a serial gateway with the same 3.3v arduino pro mini that i used for the irrigation controller.

      the serial gateway is connected to the usb (with a serial - rs232 converter which also powers the arduino and the nrf2401 with 3.3v). i added the gateway to configuration.yaml

      mysensors:
        gateways:
          - device: '/dev/ttyUSB0'
            baud_rate: 38400
            persistence_file: 'home/homeassistant/mysensors.json'
        optimistic: false
        persistence: true
        retain: true
        version: '2.0'
      

      the sensor.yaml has this added:

        - platform: mysensors
          port: "/dev/ttyUSB0"
      

      the serial debug of the irrigation controller looks like that:

      there seems to be some communication between the hub and the sensor which is ok. but i don't see any mysensor sensors in home assistant and i don't understand what the log errors below mean, or how to get rid of them.
