Here is my code for doing something equivalent. You seem to have the pinMode line missing in setup() // Initialize motion message MyMessage msg(CHILD_ID, V_TRIPPED); void setup() { pinMode(MOTION_SENSOR_PIN, INPUT_PULLUP); // sets the motion sensor digital pin as input } void presentation() { // Present locally attached sensors here // Send the sketch version information to the gateway and Controller sendSketchInfo("Motion Sensor", "1.1"); // Register all sensors to gw (they will be created as child devices) present(CHILD_ID, S_MOTION); } boolean pinstate = false; void loop() { boolean newstate = (digitalRead(MOTION_SENSOR_PIN) == HIGH); if (newstate != pinstate) { if (newstate == true) { send(msg.set("1")); Serial.println("Motion Started"); pinstate = newstate; } else { send(msg.set("0")); Serial.println("Motion Stopped"); pinstate = newstate; } } }

Good point! I use FHEM... the Gateway is connected... so FHEM maybe the Problem...

sorry... I'm blind... maybe I can change it here: int CS = 10; sorry again

Same problem here, very randomly only blink once when press reset button on node (or upload sketch) And something else... what about : #define MY_RANDOMSEED_PIN 7 // A7 - Pin used for random generation (do not connect anything to this) Must be pin 21 for A7 ?

@Meister_Petz Sometimes thats the most difficult problem Glad to have helped!

Ok, in addition, I found out, that everything works fine if I let nodes talk to the gateway directly. If the nodes are behind repeaters (I tried 3 different ones) they can send alright but they don't receive reads.

many thanks! I know it's easy for you - unfortunately not for me. That's why I'm here.

@marekd Thank you, it does help :

I use something similar mainly to show if messages are received. For this purpose I created a small class/ library to blink and time LED's. The class uses a similar syntax as Bounce2 for assigning and handling LED's attached to output pins. LedFlash. A code example: https://codebender.cc/sketch:85200

Worked! Many Thanks

@Meister_Petz I use millis() for this exact thing and it has been working great for me for months. Here is an example of what I do: unsigned long DHTPreviousMillis = 0; // last time update. long DHTDelay = 120000; // interval at which to do something (milliseconds) //Delay temperature and humidity for the length of time of DHTDelay without stopping the whole program unsigned long DHTCurrentMillis = millis(); if(DHTCurrentMillis - DHTPreviousMillis > DHTDelay) { DHTPreviousMillis = DHTCurrentMillis; //do something here } See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10773425/performing-a-function-after-x-time for more details on Millis delay Hope that helps.

Nano - so VIN! Thanks!

The power was the right hint! I solved it with a capacitator and a separate 3.3 V regulator. Now everything works perfectly. Many thanks!

For the size and cost I think you better chose an AC powered device. Additional to the link posted by @m26872, @petewill just posted full instructions on how to build this on $8 Lamp (Outlet) "Smart Plug" Module
