Tested a arduino node with a arduino gateway (433 rfm69hw) that works fine, used the same node code as posted above. This narrows it down the RPI Zero W gateway.

An other update:

Did a radio test:

Test program (only difference is the node id):

// ***************************************************************************************
// Sample RFM69 sketch for Moteino to illustrate:
//   - sending
//   - receiving
//   - automatic transmission control
//   - button reading/interrupts
// ***************************************************************************************
// When you press the button on the SENDER Moteino, it will send a short message to the
// RECEIVER Moteino and wait for an ACK (acknowledgement that message was received) from 
// the RECEIVER Moteino. If the ACK was received, the SENDER will blink the onboard LED
// a few times. The RECEIVER listens to a specific token, and it alternates the onboard LED
// state from HIGH to LOW or vice versa whenever this token is received.
// ***************************************************************************************
// Hardware setup:
// ***************************************************************************************
// On the sender, hook up a momentary tactile button to D3 like this:
//          __-__
//        __|   |___
// GND ----> BTN ----> D3 (D11 on MoteinoMEGA)
// Load this sketch on the RECEIVER with NODEID=RECEIVER (adjust in config section below)
// Load this sketch on the SENDER with NODEID=SENDER (adjust in config section below)

So my radio"s and arduino"s are fine.

Which brings me to the question is the Raspberry pi zero w not supported? Will try the RPI3 tomorrow.

I just tried the nrf24 and those work fine. Im stuck, all i can think is: rfm69 issue

MaDDoG

Same as I have, but have a look at the markings, only the H is marked.. same like mine

alt text

MaDDoG

@gohan I surely orderd the HW but its marked with only the H and now the HW. Is there any difference between them?

MaDDoG

@gohan Checked it, everything is connected correctly. One thing I saw, it is the rfm69H not HW. Don't really know the difference.

MaDDoG

No there is no output to the sensor, this is the only output i get, which is the controller i think:

mysgw: Client 0 connected
mysgw: Client 0: 0;255;3;0;18;
mysgw: Client 0: 255;255;3;0;20;
mysgw: TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-255-255,s=255,c=3,t=20,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,ft=0,st=OK:

mysgw: TSF:MSG:SEND,0-0-255-255,s=255,c=3,t=20,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,ft=0,st=OK:

Changing the distance does not help

Hi All,

For my project I want to use the PIzeroW as the GW and Controller and multiple GPS sensors.

My setup:

PiZeroW with raspian stretch + rfm69HW using dev branch

Controller: Mycontroller.org

build the gateway:

./configure --my-transport=rfm69 --my-rfm69-frequency=433 --my-is-rfm69hw --my-gateway=ethernet --my-port=5003

Got one warning:

Some unused define (bug?)

Right thing is build! Lets start:

sudo ./bin/mysgw -d

Output:

mysgw: MCO:BGN:INIT GW,CP=RPNG----,VER=2.2.0-beta

mysgw: New connection from 127.0.0.1
mysgw: Client 0 connected

Nice! Its working!

Well all good so far! Lets make an arduino node. Ok.. start simple:

Using version 2.1.1

// Enable debug prints to serial monitor
#define MY_DEBUG

// Enable and select radio type attached
#define MY_RADIO_RFM69
#define MY_RFM69_NEW_DRIVER
#define MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_RFM69
#define MY_RFM69_FREQUENCY RF69_433MHZ
#define MY_IS_RFM69HW 
#define MY_RFM69_NETWORKID 100
#define MY_NODE_ID 1

#define CHILD_ID 1
#define OPEN 1
#define CLOSE 0

#include <MySensors.h>
#include <SPI.h>


MyMessage msg(CHILD_ID, V_TRIPPED);

uint8_t value = OPEN;

void presentation()
{
    present(CHILD_ID, S_DOOR);
}

void loop()
{
    value = value == OPEN ? CLOSE : OPEN;
    send(msg.set(value));
    sleep(10000);
}

And this is where im stuck:

Radios are fine, there are tested, voltages are fine 3.3V powered by a powersupply since the pi zero and arduino cant supply the current. Ok software problem then? Using this as a base: what is wrong?
