@martinhjelmare I see you PR was merged a while ago. It looks like the force_update property defaults to TRUE. Is this now the default behavior for all MySensors sensors?

Sorry if this seems obvious, I just want to double check.
Thanks for your work and time!

@CurlyWurly,

My situation involves 2 devices:

• Device 1 - Gateway (ESP8266 + NRF24L01)
• Device 2 - Temp sensor (NRF24L01 + DHT11)

FYI: I have a 4.7uF capacitor across the GND and VCC pins of the NRF24L01 on both devices.

This may sound silly, but make sure your ESP8266 is booted into the correct mode:
GPIO 0 = High
GPIO 2 = High
GPIO 15 = Low

@scalz,
I'm using the DHT11

I'm trying to diagnose some repeater issues. I have a temperature sensor sending data every 10 seconds. Home Assistant will go several minutes before it will show a last updated timestamp for my temperature sensor. I can verify in Netcat that the gateway is getting the values every 10 seconds. By chance, I noticed in the debug output, Home Assistant only fires the Event state_changed when the value actually changes. I guess this makes sense.
Is this normal behavior for HA? Can this be disabled so every sensor message is logged?

@mysensors-6043,
The normal setup involves 3 pieces:

1. The sensor (aka node) emitting data via RF using something like a NRF24L01
2. A gateway that receives the sensor data via the RF module (NRF24L01) and sends it to a controller over ethernet or wifi.
3. A controller to manage connected nodes and present data to the user.

It seems like you're combining the sensor and gateway into one device. If this is the case, I think you can comment out the #define MY_RADIO_RFM69 line as there is no radio connected. I don't know how this plays into the registration process of a sensor. There is no ID getting associated to the sensor because this is a gateway.

Maybe someone else can chime in who knows whether it's okay to combine the gateway and sensor into one device. If so, how is registration and ID assignment handled?

@mysensors-6043,
Post a updated version of your sketch.

@mysensors-6043,
The sketch you posted looks like you combined the sensors with the NodeMCU, is this true? Is this NodeMCU acting as a gateway as well?

@mysensors-6043,
Have you been able to confirm that you get temperature readings on the sensor? I would try to simplify your sketch to rule things out.

Here's what I'd do, in the following order:

• Remove all MySensors related code and just get the sensor reading to the serial monitor.
• I see you're looping over several temperature sensors on the node, simplify this, only read one for starters.
• Verify your gateway is on the network by using telnet or netcat. I.e.: nc xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 5003
• Try just getting your node to "present" to the gateway. Reading the sensor debug via the serial monitor and watch the gateway via netcat.

I'll create a pull request to update the Air Humidity Sensor example (DhtTemperatureAndHumiditySensor.ino) and reference this post.

@martinhjelmare,
Updated my sketch, thanks again!
