update:

Adapted the old distance sensor sketch to the 2.0 library and upladed it and connected to my PC. Also connected the gateway 2.0 to raspberry (Domoticz).....
Allright it works....I do get distance in my serial monitor and in domoticz.

Now try to upload the basement alarm sketch...See what happens...

To all,

Thanks for your answers. Unfortunatly I didn't have time to check your answers. I will keep in touch

Hi,

I promised to keep in touch....

I have disconnected the radio from the Arduino, so the radio is fed through a seperate stable 5V.
And also the relais board is fed seperately.
It runs for a cuple of days and it seems to work well. Time to move on.
To see if the magnet is working or not, I decided to connect a RGB led. When I connect the led, the board is going bonkers. The led is connected on D5 and D6 and the other side to ground (via a resistor)

Anybody a clue?

Naitsirhc

Again, thanks all for answering

Until now its working 2 days flawlessly.

Unfortunatly the sensor stopped working last night. I have ordered a relais board with opto coupler....
I will keep in touch

Going bonkers is probably not the right word. I actually meant that the owner, and especialy his wife, are going bonkers
What I meant is:
When I connect the led: (red = D5, Green = D6 and the ground is connected through a resistor of 1K.) When I turn on the relay it's answering for aprox. 5 minutes and than it crashes.
I can only reanimate it by turning off the power

Naitsirhc

Thanks for your quick reply.

The led is indicating one colour at the same time. Green for open and red for close.
I can give it a try to have more resistors connected...

Hi,

Picked up the hobby again
I would like to build an irregation system with a pump, 4 valves and a sensor to easure the total amount of water in a tank.
I have found some sketches to help me with the problem. So I hope this would not be the problem.
I now have tried the relais sketch on my doormagnet (other project), and after a while it will fail (probably noise causes the problem)
My system is:
Arduino nano
radio NRF2401 PA/LNA
NRF24L01+ Socket Adapter Board
relais board
All of this are connected with jumper wires and the arduino + radio are fed seperatly with a charger.

Before I try to build the irregation system I would like to know if there is a good method to calcuate the size of the decoupling capacitor. And where do I have to put it. Do I have to put it on the 230V side, or also on the 5V (on the relais board)

Hope too get some aswers here, thanks in advance

Hi

First of all, thanks for all the answers.

Started from skratch again. Downloaded the new arduino IDE.Some Libraries (NewPing and Mysensors) and finaly the sketch compiled
I uploaded it to the Nano and then expected to see something on the serial monitor....

Too bad...Oh right. removed slashes for MyDebug and MyDebug_Verbose...

Presto.

Unfortunatly I see in serial monitor:

Starting sensor (RNNNA-, 2.0.0)
TSM:INIT
TSM:RADIO:OK
TSP:ASSIGNID:OK (ID=32)
TSM:FPAR
TSP:MSG:SEND 32-32-255-255 s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,ft=0,st=bc:

!TSM:FAILURE
TSM:PDT
TSM:INIT

Too bad. What have I done wrong? Is it possible to see the distance in serial monitor and to see if a relay turned on or off?

EDIT:
Upgraded my Gateway also to 2.0

Stil no succes

I turned of the LED pin (I don't need it)

The compiler does his job till the last line:
saveState(PUMP, PumpStatus);

which returns:
exit status 1
'saveState' was not declared in this scope

What can I do to make this error disappear

Thanks in advance
