Excuse my English, I have to work with translators.
Hello, everybody,
I get messages about Fhem and request and send messages to Fhem as well.
Now I want to use Software-ACK and isAck() (new isEcho()) to make sure that the sent messages arrive.
Problem is, the requests and messages from Fhem do not contain Ack and the serial port goes into endless loop.
How can I check the messages in this regard (set, request)?
I have found a way:
message.getCommand()
As soon as all tests are positive, I will publish an example.
I found my solution here, first entry:
Sketch
The approach to differentiate the message did not work for my purpose:
I.e. all are set messages (no differentiation possible)
Because I use a counter to limit the resending of the status message from the node I used this counter to get to the destination.
In short: If the reception was successful the counter goes to 0, the request to <0 and the send to >0.
Here is my sketch, it is for switching several time controlled relays, for clarity I have removed the debug messages:
/**
* The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
* between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
* The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
* repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the
* network topology allowing messages to be routed to nodes.

*
* DESCRIPTION
* The RS485 Gateway prints data received from sensors on the serial link.
* The gateway accepts input on seral which will be sent out on
* the RS485 link.
*
* Wire connections (OPTIONAL):
* - Inclusion button should be connected between digital pin 3 and GND
* - RX/TX/ERR leds need to be connected between +5V (anode) and digital pin 6/5/4 with resistor 270-330R in a series
*
* LEDs (OPTIONAL):
* - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message received. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation received
* - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
* - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or receive crc error
*
* If your Arduino board has additional serial ports
* you can use to connect the RS485 module.
* Otherwise, the gateway uses AltSoftSerial to handle two serial
* links on one Arduino. Use the following pins for RS485 link
*
* Board Transmit Receive PWM Unusable
