@Mrlynx
Please 5 boards/kits for me:-)

@rafael.brasilia Sorry, I don't know what is wrong. I got problems myself: I can see my Gateway in the Vera... but cannot get it to communicate with the sensors - I am also new to this. Hopefully one of the experienced guys on this site can help you!

@rafael.brasilia I followed the instructions in this link.

Can you give some more information on how far you got, eg:

• Did you test to upload the blink example to the Nano? Did it work?
• Was the upload of the Gateway to the Nano successful?
• Any problems downloading files from Git.hub, uploading these files to Vera?
• Is the creation successful in the Vera?

Status update: Just stubbled across the

• "Serial Port Configuration" in the Apps->Develop Apps->Serial Port Configuration tab,
• selected the "MySensors" device in the drop down,
• got an error when reloading ("select 115200 baud rate") so I changed the the baud rate
• reloaded - and no errors!

Don't know if it works (got not clients/sensors to talk to) but the HUD is all green :-)

@hek
I bought a Nano today at Electro:Kit Malmö cuz I just couldn't wait for the boat from China :-)... but the the error remains the same! Reboot, re-download, rewiring, ... I cannot get the MySensors plugin to work.

BTW, I use codebender and know the software loads OK.

Any suggestions?

@hek ... Sorry, typo - of course it is a Nano I am waiting for.

@Yveaux said:> silkscreen

Sorry, cannot explain that. However it is exactly as in the official pic on arduino.cc that i linked above: the CTS connects to the GND.

I have the same (almost) issue as @rafael.brasilia.

Installed the MySensors device with files downloaded today (18/9-14) according to the instructions. When pushing "Reload" after creating the device i had not connected the Gateway to the USB yet. Got the error in the picture below. I then connected the gateway with exactly the same result. Then rebooted and got the same result again.

Please note! I am using a not supported gateway - the Arduino Pro Mini (the Uno is still on a boat somewhere between here and China :-)), but the issue doesn't seem to be related to the gateway, rather the creation of the device.

What is my newbee mistake? Except for using the wrong hardware ;-)

@John @Zeph @Yveaux - Thanks guys, I got it to work and thought I better write it down for others with the same issue.

When sending a sketch to the Arduino Pro Mini (328, 5V) the IDE gives an error, after the upload progress bar stops a while at around 90%: "avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding".

The issue is the missing FTDI driver for OSX. Of course, all is in the installation instructions, but you need to select the correct driver. I think my problem was the wrong driver.

This is how I did the successful installation of the required FTDI drivers for Arduino Pro Mini on a MBP 2010 with OSX 10.9.4:

• Download and install the Arduino IDE (it is actually just a zipped download of the arduino.app) by moving it into the Application folder
• Head over to the FTDI Driver page.
• Select VCP Drivers->Mac OSX->x86 (32-bit) and download
• mount the dmg and run the installer (there are two installers, select the one with the higher release number)
• a nice installation script runs for a while, after it finished
• restart your mac (don't know if this step is actually required).

Voila! It works.

@Yveaux - thanks for you fast response. I would agree with you if it wasn't for this pic (http://arduino.cc/en/Guide/ArduinoProMini) (halfway down) on arduino.cc...

@John, thanks for confirming the wiring. So on to the next steps: boot loader or ftdi drivers? I read the link you kindly suggested. The behavior of the board is identical and the blog refers to a long illustrated article on how to upload a new boot loader. That is a pretty complex project so I will start with the driver. A question, is the FTDI OSX/Windows/Linux driver different for each Arduino board? I know the driver is good for the Uno.

Help :-O
Before soldering and connecting the radio for MySensors i decided to run a sample program from the IDE examples with just the Arduino. However, I cannot upload to the board. And I don't understand what I am doing wrong. Some information:

• the Mac+IDE setup works fine with Arduino Uno and a serial-USB cable.
• I'm now trying an Arduino Pro Mini 328 5V/16MHz
• to connect to the Arduino I am using LowPowerLab's FTDI adapter (set for 5V) (I have also tried another 5V FTDI compatible with same result)
• i have tried with another Arduino Pro Mini 328 5V/16MHz - same result
• pics from IDE and the connections at this link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/y9uz4y23rqluyqw/AAA0jpxh5UNDE783aXbqNzVYa?dl=0
  Please help
