"Usually" is the correct term. You can request whatever you want using MQTT, but you need to handle the response manually inside the receive() function. This isn't an automatic internal process like the echo or ack response. void receive(const MyMessage &message) { if (message.getCommand() == C_REQ) { switch (message.getSensor()) { case 10: // Send SSR 1 state break; case 11: // Send SSR 2 state break; case 20: // Send temperature sensor value break; case 40: // Send humidity sensor value break; default: break; } } } Note: It's best to not send a message from within receive() as it can cause all sorts of weird stuff, including recursive loops. Preferably, you'd set a flag and handle everything else in the main loop.

@joaoabs yes that looks fine. Keep the non-shielded part of the cable as short as possible, but you’ve already done a great job so I think it would be hard to make it shorter. Personally I would probably have chosen to solder a pigtail (with sma contact) to the rfm module, to make it possible to switch to a different antenna/coax cable without soldering. But each connector introduces loss, so soldering might be the best choice.

While it would be possible via request() as @mfalkvidd suggests, I wouldn't recommend to do that in this case. I think it's rather pointless to regularly request variables which only change rarely. It adds a lot of traffic to the network - at least 4 messages (including echos) per request - while the requested values stay unchanged 98% of the time or so. Not to mention that the status LEDs could show a wrong condition for up to 10 minutes if you toggle a light switch right after its state has been requested. I'd suggest to use one of the following alternatives instead: You could have the light nodes send messages to both the gateway and the node with the status LEDs. The status LEDs would update immediately when a light is toggled and there's a lot less unnecessary traffic on the network. Let the controller handle the logic. Whenever a light node sends a state change to the gateway, tell the controller to send a message to the node with the status LEDs. This method has the same benefits as the one before and it's easier maintainable since you don't need to re-upload sketches to multiple nodes if something changes - just reconfigure a script in your controller.

@joaoabs said in Can't receive parent answer: Maybe the slim node page could have some reference to this? I totally agree, the IRQ line should be routed, also for nrf24 modules. Could you propose this in the slimnode maker's thread?

might be related to that thread: https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/11427

After much tentative-error, found a working setup. The drawback is that the node cannot be more that 4m away from the gateway in order to communication flow normally. Could this be bad quality RFM69's? I mean, isn't supposed that 433MHz range would be higher than this? I was expecting it to cross walls and so... The Slim node is currently powered by a USB/serial adapter (not battery) connected to the laptop so it shouldn't be a low power issue. All nrf2rfm69 modules have a bought 433MHz spiral antenna (like the picture), including the GW and I have also soldered a 10uF SMD tantalum capacitor (smd code 106A) in the back side.

Well, After removing some counters cycles on a node, I can state I have the MySensors GW working non-stop for 24h now with 2 nodes without any noticeable issue. Both nodes are using Encryption and Signing. The nodes are simply reporting temperature and Humidity every minute or so. Will try now the behavior with actuator nodes (relay). In the log I can see it isn't perfect yet. There are quite a few signing failures. The node #80 is 6 meters away from the gateway with line-of-sight, which concerns me a bit because when I place the nodes in the final locations, I'm sure the radio path will not be better than this. I'm assuming that the signing is failing due to radio issues - I might be wrong.

This signature failure isn't critical for temp/Humidity readings (even if it fails now, it will be fine in the next round), but for actuator nodes (where you really want something to be turned on/off) it will be a concern. I haven't noticed any other 433MHz interference (but only used the garage remote a couple of times during the day). It can be that a buggy node sketch makes the RFM69 unstable and jams the frequency. One of the side effects is that there are no entries in the GW log and therefore it seems is it down. Well, something to take into consideration when coding the nodes. My 2 cents

@mfalkvidd not necessary. We already have #define MY_GATEWAY_LINUX, so just #ifdef MY_GATEWAY_LINUX to define those constants in runtime at the init stage. As I see it, only SPI driver needs to be defined at compilation, other options could easily be set via config.

Hi, Got it working! It was a strange mix of RFM69/RFM69HW devices (all soldered into the nrf2rfm69 board - so couldn't tell which type it was) and also a faulty RFM69. Also, it seems the signing consumes much processing power (and memory) to the little at328 chips. A sketch with more than 65% memory usage may fail some signatures, so not recommended to put many functionalities in the same node, specially when running my_debug. Simple sketches just with a sht21 sensor are working fine with signing and RFM69 encryption. Copying the correct HMAC, soft-serial and AES to the mysensors.conf file and with RPI reboots after each config/make/makeinstall cycle solved the problem. Thanks, Joaoabs

@joaoabs said in Error compiling for RPI4 64 bit: RFM69_MAX_PACKET_LEN: Maybe MySensors isn't yet ready for 64bit It won’t be until someone wants it badly enough, and has the time and skills to do whatever is needed.

Bingo! This is a backwards incompatibility - thanks for reporting! @joaoabs You should be able to fix this by using the SecurityPersonalizer example from the 2.3.1 lib and copy/paste the settings section from your current sketch to the example sketch. @Anticimex issue originates from replacing all signerSHA256xyz() functions in the cryptoHAL

Doing further investigation, still no sucess.... Got the logs from the working node, based on Sensebender and everything seems fine. Changed the radios, still the same problem. Took the basic relay example from my sensors and just added my radio/signing stuff: Still the same problem. The code doesn't even reach setup() function, so it must be something on the MySensors initialization, but if that was the case, why does it work fine with the Sensebender micro? Any idea?

Well, one of the problems when buying from china is that it takes so long to get the stuff that we sometimes forgot what we ordered It seems my RFM69's are in fact RFM69HW (eventhough the chip has a "H"). After reconfiguring the sensebender code and the raspberry configure command accordingly I got dialogue between them! Will now try encryption Update: It seems it's not as simple as just adding the "#define MY_RFM69_ENABLE_ENCRYPTION" in the arduino code and "#define MY_RFM69_ENABLE_ENCRYPTION" in the ./configure command for the RPI GW... Will try to sort it out and if not able to make it work, will open a different thread. Update2: It seems it really is after all. Just needed a reboot, and the signing personalization will be re-used

@joaoabs said in Antenna for the RFM69: I'll be connecting a single core wire to act as an antenna to the RFM69 module. I could understand that it should be exactly 164.7mm long for 434Mhz. I could also understand that having the most accurate lenght makes all of the difference in the antenna efficiency. Now my question is: Since I'm going to solder it in the RFM69 hole, should I consider a few mm more, for the part that goes through the hole? In other words, is the 164.7mm the size from the PCB surface (and therefore needs a few mm extra to get into the hole), or what matters is having a 164.7mm wire soldered (and having some mm out in the other PCB surface). this exact antenna length is in an ideal world, but it's a good start. There are some points here that can also modify rf performance too https://forum.mysensors.org/post/91880 In short, pcb shape and its gnd size including battery (called the antenna gnd counterpoise, wider for 433mhz), antenna shape, bent or not, can have effects on bandwidth, efficiency etc. when you don't have tools for checking rf, you could empirically experiment by adding/removing few millimeters and see how it affects rssi for example. And better checking it with your node in final setup (in enclosure with battery, as it can also affect perf). This is fine tuning but sometimes depending on the node build it can improve range, then needs less TX power for same job, less TX power = less batt used.. and "greener" RF/less loud

This is actually strange. Its the same sketch, the difference is just the commented debug flag. With the debug flag off, I reset the GW, wait for the startup and then I reset some nodes in order to force presentation, but all I get is this: 0;255;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete. 0;255;0;0;18;2.2.0 With the debug flag on, I don't even need to reset the nodes, I get "automagically" the communication from my 3 test nodes (4, 10 and 44). 0;255;3;0;9;0 MCO:BGN:INIT GW,CP=RNNGA---,VER=2.2.0 0;255;3;0;9;4 TSM:INIT 0;255;3;0;9;6 TSF:WUR:MS=0 0;255;3;0;9;14 TSM:INIT:TSP OK 0;255;3;0;9;17 TSM:INIT:GW MODE 0;255;3;0;9;20 TSM:READY:ID=0,PAR=0,DIS=0 0;255;3;0;9;23 MCO:REG:NOT NEEDED 0;255;3;0;14;Gateway startup complete. 0;255;0;0;18;2.2.0 0;255;3;0;9;28 MCO:BGN:STP 0;255;3;0;9;34 MCO:BGN:INIT OK,TSP=1 0;255;3;0;9;1915 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=1,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;4982 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=3,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;6920 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=2,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;10014 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=4,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;11924 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=70,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;15047 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=30,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;16928 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=71,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;20079 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=31,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;21932 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=10,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;25122 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=70,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;26937 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=50,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;30155 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=10,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;31941 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=60,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;35186 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=255,c=3,t=26,pt=1,l=1,sg=0:2 0;255;3;0;9;35194 TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-44-44,s=255,c=3,t=27,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=OK:1 0;255;3;0;9;35217 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=30,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;36947 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=255,c=3,t=26,pt=1,l=1,sg=0:2 0;255;3;0;9;36955 TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-4-4,s=255,c=3,t=27,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=OK:1 0;255;3;0;9;39106 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=70,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;40248 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=31,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;44111 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=71,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;45270 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=70,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;50302 TSF:MSG:READ,44-44-0,s=70,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;53968 TSF:MSG:READ,10-10-0,s=30,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=1: 0;255;3;0;9;64184 TSF:MSG:READ,10-10-0,s=30,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=1: 0;255;3;0;9;69276 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=10,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;76290 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=60,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: 0;255;3;0;9;81298 TSF:MSG:READ,4-4-0,s=50,c=3,t=16,pt=0,l=0,sg=0: What should I see in the serial GW when the debug mode is off?

@tekka What debug flag should I activate for this? When I see the erratic behavior there isn't nothing appearing in the serial console, even with the MY_DEBUG on, so I guess there should be other that is of your interest... Thanks

@joaoabs If you want to go the "arduino-based" route: There seem to exist already a lot of projects reading this type of meter with a microcontroller e.g. an ESP8266. The code itself seems to be rather simple (assuming, the code provided eg here: https://github.com/reaper7/SDM_Energy_Meter/blob/master/examples/sdm_simple/sdm_simple.ino really works, but there seem to be some more working projects out there). So you may either combine this with normal mysensors-code and just use send commands instead of serial prints (at lower frequency). Could be you'll need a more powerfull mcu than the ATMega32, but most likely a STM32F103 will have enough resources to fullfill this task.

Is there any progress in this area? I guess this is not the same as smart sleep?

yeah i'm running a bunch. connect to the bottom pin on the top left side (basically not the vcc pin on the bottom) it take 3v and works great.

Hello, Fresh update: With 5k1 pull-down resistors the reel switches work as expected (with the diode "OR"), so I can keep the original plan and use the MySensors sleep methods. Thanks for that tip! And by the way, is it possible to configure the MySensors interrupts on the rising edge, or is it just limited to change? However, with the PIR (modified to work at 3.3V) the maximum voltage it reaches with a 5k1 pull-down resistor is 2.2V, witch is still not enough to activate the interrupt. I kept increasing the pull-down resistor up to 20k, but then the behaviour gets erratic: It starts activating/deactivating without any sense. Was anyone been able to use a modified HC-SR501 PIR (initial diode and 3.3v voltage regulator bypassed) successfully, or the step up to 5V is really needed? (Its a shame to step up 3.3v to 5v so then step it down again to 3.3v, but if there is no other way...). Anyone willing to share the experience with HC-SR501 PIR's in mysensors framework? Thanks, Joao

The "payoff" is that you know if you need to resend value or not. I would only use it for important values, like when you turn on/off a light or something. Asking for ack on sensor values doesn't give much benefit.
