This helps me a lot, but I'm not using RPi but olinuxino-lime a10 (european ARM board)

regards

@sigolhi
ok, i'll try your EasyIoT's, seems good.
Where can i find documentation to connect the pi to the radio??? I've got olinuxino-lime, it's cheaper but there is not documentation about. I need to connect the board to the radio via SPI, and it's not easy.

quite similar errors with the plugin started or stoped

plugin stoped: my sensors is reciving a command while is not running. Turn on the plugin first.
** plugin started:** Succesfull test receives a command while is not ruuning. Turn on the plugin firsr

the logs appear and disappear as quikly thar they are almost imposible to read and i de log file is empty

bye

Hi freedomotic, I'm traying to test you plug-in in freedomotic, but dont make it works. Could you please give me a mini setup advise, for example for a** RelayActuator** using Lights General Switch. I set

protocolo: mysensors
dirección: 7;1 //static ip because i don`t use AUTO mode (or should I use AUTO mode? to make it works)
actions: turn on/of MySensors light

    <property name="serial.port" value="COM5"/>       
    <property name="serial.baudrate" value="115200"/>
    <property name="serial.databits" value="8"/>
    <property name="serial.parity" value="0"/>
    <property name="serial.stopbits" value="1"/>

There is allways the same message:
my sensors is reciving a command while is not running. Turn on the plugin first.

but the plugin is turned on, what im doing wrong???
thanks

my idead is to ask in the freedomotic thread:

http://forum.mysensors.org/topic/339/freedomotic

ok sigolhi, do as hek says. dont let your sensor into AUTO mode, and put an ID manually, for example 7.
If you want to have all your sensor automatically addresed you must program a controller or use one of mysensors administrators suggest. I`m trying freedomotics, (because of windows) but i dont make it works yet. Things are not so easy. Mybe im gonna use my ARM card to try an other one.

best

Thanks
** I'm reading that thread** because I feel that the explanation about the Mysensors API and the serial protocol is just a little brief. I'd like to have a more detailed manual about serial protocol and the api,,, not only explaining the three main classes; MySensor, MyMessage and MyGateway but the constructor, and all the methods, propieties ...

Thanks to everybody, at least it worked!!!

I gave a static ip adress for exaple 7 (not auto mode), and to comunicate (I have no controler installed yet) i changed the serial monitor to "new line" and y typed this to change the state of a led:

7;1;1;0;2;0\n

daulagari the child-sensor-id is 1, i think this is becasuse of the sketch RelayActuator

Im very happy, Ive spend lot of houres. anyone konows a freedomotic setup mysensors manual? I`m a bit lost.

OK, so the problem is that I`m not using any controler at all, but....

Is it possible to do without a controler if i only want to set up a mini network with one gateway and one sensor? I assume to use static radio id.

Anyway, is there any freedomotic setup mysensors manual? I cant setup the plug-in in windows by setting the serial port as this:

<property name="serial.port" value="COM5"/>

thanks to everybody for helping

I know that i'm receiving something, because each time i switch the sensor i receive the same message on the serial monitor screen buy it's always the same message. Nothing changes even if the pin3 is on ground or not:

0;0;3;0;9;read: 255-255-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0:
255;255;3;0;3;

Thanks

hi daulagari

I did as you say and i uploaded a BinarySwitchSensor and this is what i had as reponse from the serial monitor gateway:

0;0;3;0;9;read: 255-255-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0:
255;255;3;0;3;

each time y reset the BinarySwitchSensor i have that as reponse

thanks

hi everybody
I'm a beginner user and I'm starting with serial protocol. There is something i'm doing wrong. I don't succes to comunicate with my V_LIGHT node. I have only one serial gateway and one V_light sensor with a led attached to PÌN1.
I have uploaded the example sketch RelayActuator,and I've changed AUTO in gw.begin() for 150.
I'm trying to switch off a led by passing 150;1;1;0;2;0 via COM5 monitor Serial. I can`t switch off the led and I have no reponse. The message dosen't reach the 150 node
Any idea? is there any serial manual more detailed? is there any manual to use with Freedomotic?

Thanks a lot
