@mfalkvidd I wasn't sure on how to do that. I saw that setup for NRF radios, but couldn't figure it how to apply that with RFM radios and what defines to use and such.

@mfalkvidd I just found the API docs for soft SPI. I'll give that a try tonight or in the next couple days.

Ok, Really dumb, I had MY_RFM69_IRQ_PIN connected to the radio's RESET instead of DI00. I was grasping at straws and went to re-do my antenna because they were about 3mm too short when I noticed the mis-wiring. Once I fixed that swapped 3.3v and Ground and troubleshot that for a minute before I realized it. Before trying to fix the antenna I thought maybe since I didn't have a sensor defined the battery level data wasn't enough.The node is now talking to the controller with the MockMySensors sketch.

Thanks for your help guys.

@ElCheekytico
I cannot find that you set your NODE_ID in the beginning of the sensor sketch.
Since OpenHAB does not hand out node-id as far as I know (I do not use the MySensors binding in OpenHAB since I connect over mqtt) you have to set NODE_ID manually.

Note: The GW does not assign node id either.

In your sensor sketch, start by adding

#define MY_NODE_ID   5

for example and see if you are able to connect.

@bgunnarb I found that OpenHAB does assign node ID's even though the controller feature table somewhere on this site says it does not.

I cleared eeprom and went back to my battery sketch and all is well.
