@Ed1500 Thanks for your answer. Went for espurna.. Tested tasmota, but compared to espurna it was kind of slow. Works stable for quite some time now.

I switched from the serial gateway to the lan gateway. I solved this in domoticz by updating the serial one with the LAN. Worked immediately without re-adding whatsoever. Maybe lucky?

Great work!

I was wondering if some of you already know if Espeasy supports the pow versions power usage reporting. I checked the github and couldn't find it. I know Espurna supports it (as a domoticz MQTT). However when I check the REST API of Esputna there is nothing noted about the power consumption (only humidity and temp) requests.

Any help is much appreciated.
Regards, and keep up the good work.

@meddie and @all Tonight I think I have fixed my issue however how I do not understand so maybe someone can explain, or maybe I think I have fixed it and it is not fixed at all.

On the arudino website it states that when you burn your bootloader you have to connect pin 13,12,11 and pin 10 to reset (and ofcourse 5v and ground). AFter burning the bootloader you should replace it with the rx and tx cable and disconnect 13,12,11 and connect reset to reset. Each time I did this I got the error of Yikes! However tonight by accident I forgot to rewire the pins to rx and tx and press “Upload using programmer” all of a sudden it stated “done uploading”.

I tested this with blink sketch so I attached a led to pin13 and ground. The led started to blink. I was happy however did not understand…. or is this just a n00b mistake

@m26872 Thanks for your answer... The problem is I read a lot about it (which makes me kinda stupid that I still haven't achieved this).

I tried to find atmel studio (I believe you are referring to atmel studio?) I couldn't find a proper mac version. I checked on the fuse calculator and still no success. Maybe some one could give me the correct fuse settings for AVR or a proper mac download link for atmel studio.

OI know I am asking a lot, but it would help me a lot. Thanks.!!

@meddie are you also using the optiboot 9600 NOBOD in boards.txt the same as in the first post (fuse settings I mean)? And are you using avrdude arduino ide for mac?

I tried your solution but i get the same results.. Yikes!

If you use the same setup, can you post your boards.txt? Did you also make changes to the hex file?

Thanks in advance.

Hello all,

I have been struggling with this for a couple of weeks now and I just can seem to figure out a good way to upload sketches to the arduio328p-pu. First of all I use this setup;

I use arduino for mac 1.6.5
I use a breadboard with a crystal, two capacitors and a resistor between reset and 5v.
An arduino to burn bootloader (with the chip inserted and sketch arduinoISP uploaded).
I use the same hex files as you guys with 1a. I used the optiboot 9600 BOD, just the 9600 and the 4800. Uploading the bootloader is no problem at all. Arduino ide burns the bootloader without any problems. However when I try to upload the sketches I get different errors. The “Yikes” version in which it states that my device signature is not ok and programmer not responding. I use upload using programmer.

So, I tried to upload the arduino uno version to rule out all miscabling. So what I did was upload the arduino uno bootloader, tried to upload the blink sketch afterwards and it works. So my cables are ok….

I thought to repeat the exact same process with the boot version above. However no succes, I keep getting stuck at uploading sketches. Is it just not possible?

I read about setting the fuse options and I read that when you define these in the boards.txt, they will be set as the fuseparameters. When I check the boards txt above i see that fuse settings are: L0x62,H0xde,E0x07, however when I open the png file (first post, fuse settings) it states L0x62,H0xDE,E0xFF. Furthermore the lockbits are at 0xCF, compared to the boards.txt 0x2F. What is true and how should I set these. I don’t see a possibility in arduino ide (I use another arduino to upload, so I don’t have a tiny or USBASP.

Help would be much appreciated here because I have like 30 boards sitting catching dust.

@m26872

I received my panelized boards as well (guess 1.4). They look great!!.

I do have a question about this. Maybe it was just some silly thinking. I was trying to program the arduino 328p-pu on a regular arduino uno board (default motion sketch). After I did this I hooked it up on to the board.

However I am not receiving anything on the arduino serial monitor. I connected the arduino uno to your board. v to v, rx to rx, tx to tx, ground to ground and reset to reset. Am I just thinking to simple? Can someone please advise me to get this board up and running? I also soldered d13 additional to the nrf.

I soldered all caps, however I did not solder the resistor, is that one mandatory?

Many thanks and keep up the good work.

@mfalkvidd @GertSanders Thanks for your answers!! How about the range, I know it is depending on the quality of Chinese products, however can you give an estimate regarding your setups?

@m26872
Thanks... Maybe it is answered, but I didn't quite catch it. 3v will be fed to the radio, but isn't the 3.3 important instead of 3v? I don't see any stepup. Is your range acceptible?

Thanks...

Nice example!!!

What I was thinking of, is can it also be a part of the gateway (GPS gateway). In that way things such as(just an example could also be connected to mysensors):

Like the board and ordered it. Can you also post exactly the capacitor types? Keep up the good work.

Hello all,

First of all great project, I have been using mysensors for a year now and collected quite a nice rig.. So may thanks to this project.

I have a question, recently I purchased a cc1101 transceiver to use with mysensors. However I cannot seem to make it work as a node (to use with RCswitch library). I would like to know if there is someone already tried this or is using this. I don't want to use it as a gateway, just as a node to collect data from my cheap 433mhz door/window contacts. I hope someone can push me into the right direction.

Regards

@korttoma, didn't had time to make the ir blaster yet. So quite frankly I don't know. I am using the remote delivered in the package. It still works by the way, which was surprising for that price. The flicker of the candles is kind of fast, like there is a firm wind in my livingroom.

@kolaf maybe a distance sensor at an angle on top off the barrel. You could than measure exact figures in some way??i don't know (just a noob)..

Nice! Would add a water detector in one of those containers. Just in case no water at all arrives....

I have the same one, but mine turned out to be the gateway.

@korttoma just bought these yesterday on ebay:

I have no idea if this is something useful

Worth a try for 8 dollar?
