Thanks all you guys, now my first experimental system is working

Thanks for the advise

@TimO Thanks for the info I shall work on it at the weekend shall update about my progress

@mfalkvidd Thanks a lot for the enlightment I'm not using a controller I've just asumed that gateway will be fine to manage the Nodes which is the dumb thing I was missing.

I've started to work on selecting a controller.

Can anyone advise which controller is most easy to setup and integrate for a newbee? I have Raspberry Pi3 at home hosting Blynk Server which I plan to setup on this platform.

Thanks again for the help and support so far.

@TimO thanks for responding but I still can not get the ID from controller. I also have tried to set ID in node manually as 0 but this had not helped either.

I think I'm missing a very basic dumb thing please check the setup I've listed below and added sketches I've used and output log files.

As far as I understand from the output logs : Node requests ID from Gateway and I see that gateway also receives data from node but gateway do not respond to the node creating and delivering an ID.

Thanks a lot for your help

I've re-setup both Gateway and node from scratch. I've downloaded latest lib. from github. I also have cleared the eprom of the Node.

Gateway I used Arduino nano clone and NRF24L01+(not the powerful model with antenna) used 10 micF condensator as described. Code I've used created from example of Serial Gateway as below

 *******************************
 *
 * DESCRIPTION
 * The ArduinoGateway prints data received from sensors on the serial link.
 * The gateway accepts input on seral which will be sent out on radio network.
 *
 * The GW code is designed for Arduino Nano 328p / 16MHz
 *
 * 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):
 * - To use the feature, uncomment any of the MY_DEFAULT_xx_LED_PINs
 * - RX (green) - blink fast on radio message recieved. In inclusion mode will blink fast only on presentation recieved
 * - TX (yellow) - blink fast on radio message transmitted. In inclusion mode will blink slowly
 * - ERR (red) - fast blink on error during transmission error or recieve crc error
 *

This is the log screen in node device. Node requests ID from Gateway and I see that gateway also receives data from node but as far as I see from log gateway do not respond to the node creating and delivering an ID.

Thanks for the reply I shall try

I have revised all wiring and reinstalled latest library. I just have switched gateway and sensor nodes.
I've checked that after TSP:MSG:SEND 255-255-0-0 s=255,c=3,t=3,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,ft=0,st=ok: in sensor side there should be a TSP:MSG:READ line then TSP:ASSIGNID:OK but this is not happening.

Any idea where I have to check? I've stuck in my project.

I'm just using example sketches in have not changed anything

Your help is appreciated. Thanks

Hello,

I just have started to use mysensors which I have the feeling that I can do a lot with my projects but I've stuck in the first project of using serial gateway with Arduino nano and motion detector with Arduino uno.
I just have used the example sketches and used 10micoF 16V capacitors but can not able to register sensor client.
I have updated Arduino ide to latest version but this also had not helped.
I also have ran Clear EepromConfig successfully but this has not helped either..

Please find the output from serial monitor of the sensor client below. After TSM:PDT it loops back to TSM:INIT.
