These postal companies, having the monopoly for postal services became pimps, picking pockets for their good.

@mfalkvidd said in Unable to add node - more than 2:

which debugs are necessary?

MY_DEBUG or MY_DEBUG and MY_DEBUG_VERBOSE_RF24?

pw44

@mfalkvidd i really like the concept, but having troubles by trying more than 2 nodes is simply ridiculous.

I'm not finding out how to solve it.

i have 3 nodes. all works, but only 2 at a time. clearing the eeproms and flahsing again, it's like the 2 fastest. in any order. but only 2.

@mfalkvidd
thx for answering.

all use the same radio channel: 72

the problematic node was working before.

original: esp8266 gateway + 4 binarys sensor node + weather station node - all ok, no problem
by trying to add the 6 binary sensor node, this new node was never added.

clearead all gw + 3 nodes - eeprom.

now: esp8266 gateway + 4 binarys sensor node + 6 binary sensor node - all ok, no problem
the weather station node, which was working before, does not get added.

seams that by node 3, it gets refused.

Hya,

i have a esp8266 gateway and had 2 nodes - one with 4 binary sensor (door/window) and one weather station

Both nodes works very well with the gateway.

By trying to add a 3rd node, did not work. the 3rd node, a 6 binary sensor (door/window).

By last resource, i cheared the eeprom of all devices, 3 nodes and the gateway and flashed all again.

Now, i have 4 binary sensor and 6 binary sensor recognized by the gateway and the weather station not being included.

Yes, all are using the same radio channel.

No, no hardware was modified.

Is there any limitation?

Any hint of what can be done?

Thx in advance.

pw44

@mfalkvidd may this problem be related with eeprom stored vars?

i will clear the eeproms and flash gatewayand nodes again.

@mfalkvidd ok, but does it have any influence by node being recognized by gateway?

pw44

@mfalkvidd well, neither my build gateway or the two working nodes have MY_NODE_ID and MY_PARENT_NODE_ID.

in one of the posts, one user claimed not being able to include a node, but was able to do it by defining those https://forum.mysensors.org/post/36819.

so, the question is if those are necessary by having the gateway and nodes, and how to use it?

shall i define MY_NODE_ID 0 to the gateway and AUTO do the nodes, by MY_PARENT_NODE_ID, or MY_PARENT_NODE_ID 0 to the nodes?

yes, maybe stupid questions, but i didn't realize, as i have one gateway and two nodes working and a third one not being registered, even with some nrf24l01 replaced.

pw44

@mfalkvidd ok, i did, and did not understand how it works, that's why i asked.

pw44

@mfalkvidd

what are these for?

#define MY_PARENT_NODE_ID 0

#define MY_NODE_ID 21

Thx!

pw44

@mfalkvidd with linux i'm very confortable... screen /dev/ttyUSB0 9600

pw44

@pw44 any hint in how to?

pw44

Hya,

correct me if i'm wrong.

To make use of this, two units must be built. One for node and other for gateway.

Is this undestanding correct? If not, how to use nRF24DoctorGateway and nRF24DoctorNode?

Thx in advance.

pw44

@mfalkvidd the two other nodes are as close as this third, and are being recognized.

How to get the gateway's log?

by telnet gateway's ip 5003? or is there any other way without pluging to the arduino ide and opening the serial monitor for debug?

Regarding "But it could be a problem with the radio or the antenna", it happened with 3 different nrf24l01 (no extendal antenna).

Thx in advance

pw44

Hya,

some time ago i've built a 8266 gateway, a weather station and a binary sensor ( for 4 door/window) and it's working well.

Today i´ve bult another binary sensor (door/window) with 6 sensors.

But no way it get's recognized.

as i understand, radio does not connect.

The radio definitions are the same:


// Enables and select radio type (if attached)
#define MY_RADIO_RF24
#define MY_RF24_PA_LEVEL   (RF24_PA_MAX)                                 // RF24_PA_MIN = -18dBm  RF24_PA_LOW = -12dBm RF24_PA_HIGH = -6dBm RF24_PA_MAX = 0dBm
#define MY_RF24_CHANNEL   (1)  // RF channel for the sensor net, 0-125.

and gateway and this new device are 1 meter far fom another.

Any hint of what could avoid the connection?

The capacitor i've used for the nrf24l01 is a 10uF 25V

Thx in advance.

Fehler beim Kompilieren für das Board LOLIN(WEMOS) D1 mini Pro.

anyone aware of what it can be?

thx in advance.

pw44

pw44

@pw44 and so, my first assbled gateway looks like:

Now i will try a more robust version, with external antenna.

pw44

@BearWithBeard exactly what i was looking for, the pin mapping for D1 MINI.

Thx!

pw44

@mfalkvidd thx for answering.

i was looking for the correct mapping for:

#define MY_DEFAULT_ERR_LED_PIN D0 // Error led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_RX_LED_PIN D3 // Receive led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_TX_LED_PIN D4 // Transmit led pin

thx to your hint, D0 =16, D3 = 0, D4 = 2.

So, i shall change to:

#define MY_DEFAULT_ERR_LED_PIN 16 // Error led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_RX_LED_PIN 0 // Receive led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_TX_LED_PIN 2 // Transmit led pin

pw44

@BearWithBeard could you please confirm the correct definitions for the pins?

#define MY_DEFAULT_ERR_LED_PIN 3 // D0 Error led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_RX_LED_PIN 5 // D3 Receive led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_TX_LED_PIN 4 // D4 Transmit led pin

D1 = pin 1
D3 = pin 5
D4 = pin 4
D0 = pin 3

is this correct?

thx in advance.

pw44

@BearWithBeard said in Which pins should I use for status led on a wemos d1 mini gateway:

@pw44 No, this isn't a good idea. You should have all status LEDs in either source or sink configuration, or some LEDs will be inverted (lit by default, off when there is activity).

D3 and D4 must to be connected like this to not prevent the ESP from booting: GPIO - Resistor - LED cathode - LED anode - VCC. D0 should be connected equally, even if it doesn't matter for the ESP's functionality.

Besides that, if you don't use I2C, you should also be able to use D1 (GPIO5) and D2 (GPIO4) for status LEDs, inclusion mode button, etc.

Thank you so much for your answer. Helped me a lot.

pw44

@BearWithBeard

Just make sure to connect them to VCC, not GND. If either D3 or D4 are pulled low, the ESP won't boot.

So, D0 to led anode and led cathode to resistor to gnd, correct?

pw44

@Danielo-Rodríguez good question, i'm also looking for it.

I used D1 for include button.
#define MY_INCLUSION_MODE_BUTTON_PIN D1

Tried

#define MY_DEFAULT_ERR_LED_PIN D0 // 3 // Error led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_RX_LED_PIN D3 // 5 // Receive led pin
#define MY_DEFAULT_TX_LED_PIN D4 // 4 // Transmit led pin

But did not succeed.

pw44

@Yveaux Thx for the hint! BR

pw44

@Sasquatch

got it working like, but there is problem: every time it's triggered, motion detected - motion ended and a second time motion detected - motion ended. not finding out why it's triggered a second time.

}

but what worked before (without mysensor) is not working anymore. and the Serial.println shows nothing.

Any hint in how to debug with the Serial.println?

It compiles with no error, but does not work.

Thx in advance

pw44

@boum thx, man. i was in doubt, so you confirmed that it's deprecated.

i was following the code:

void loop() {     
  // Read digital motion value
  boolean motion = digitalRead( DIGITAL_INPUT_SENSOR ) == LOW; 

  // Send debug output to serial monitor
  mprintln(PSTR("Motion sensor %s"), motion ? "ON" : "OFF" );

  if (lastMotion != motion) {
    lastMotion = motion;

    // Send motion value to sensor
    gw.send( msg.set( motion ? "1" : "0" ) );
  
    if (motion) {
      gw.sleep( SLEEP_TIME );
    }
  }
  
  gw.sleep( INTERRUPT, CHANGE, SLEEP_TIME );
}

to use the motion sensor without interrupt (pin 2 or 3).

pw44

Hi,

getting an example, gw.sendVariable was not recognized and i could not find it.

Any hint?

Hi All,

i have a working project for a curtain controller, which uses a stepper and light sensor, being able to be set to auto, close, open and pause.

I would like to retrofit it, being able to be used by mysensors.

Anyone interested to help?

Thx in advance.

pw44

@mfalkvidd Thx for the reply. It makes sense.

pw44

Hi All,

having two gateways and multiple nodes (with sensors) how to link node A to gateway 1 and node B to gateway 2, i.e.?

Thx in advance for any help.

pw44

any update? did it evolved? Thx in advance.

pw44

@NeoX i gave up the w5100 gateway (uno r3 + w5100 shiled + NRF24L01+PA-LNA).

the gateway with NRF24L01+ and Wemos D1 mini is working flawlessly the last two days - so, it will be the way to go.

Re: A few random questions (V_tripped vs V_armed)

i have a door sensor, and an defined MyMessage msg(CHILD_ID,V_TRIPPED);

It notifies me wether the door is open or not.

How can it also be connected to the alarm, in order that:

alarm unarmed and being home, only notify that door is open or not.
alarm armed and being away or not, notifies that door is open or not and in case of open, also activates the alarm.

how to use V_TRIPPED and V_ARMED?

Thx in advance

pw44

Dear All,

digging the various fori, i did not find que concrete answers, so i'm posting this to be sure about the understanding.

The node sketch shall make use of these defs for HA. Is it right?

// Node and sketch information
#define SKETCH_VER "0.2" // Sketch version
#define SKETCH_NAME "SwitchSensor" // Optional node name
#define CHILD_ID 3 // Id of the sensor child
#define CHILD_NAME "DoorWindowSensor" // Optional child sensor name
#define NODE_REPEATE false // Set true if a repeater node (i.e. always turned on)
#define BUTTON_PIN 3 // Arduino Digital I/O pin for button/reed switch

As i understood:

sketch_name - how it will identify itself for HA
child_id - the sensor of this node (i.e. the gpio where the sensor is connected to)
child_name - the name for this chid_id

So, on a node sensor, i can have from 0 to 255 child_id's, each with it's name. But how to give a name for each child, if more than one sensor is connected to the node?

Is this all right? if not, please educate me in the right way.

And i'm also getting the following:

This entity does not have a unique ID, therefore its settings cannot be managed from the UI.

Any hint?

pw44

Hi All,

i have HA Core and mysensors gateway + one mysensors door sensor node.

I simply not finding out how to add the node to be monitored.

What am i missing in order to have UI showing the node?

Thx in advance

@monte thx for your answer.

which kind of gateway do you have? serial, rj45 or wifi?

the problem i had with all 4 NRF24L01 PA LNA i have.

pw44

@pw44 - well, today i dismantled both gateways and built the ESP8266 (Wemos D1 mini) with NRF24L01+ (board antenna) and a sensor (door) with a nano v3 with NRF24L01+ (board antenna).

working with no problem until now.

seams that NRF24L01+ (board antenna) to NRF24L01+ PA LNA does not work as expected......

Will continue testing and post the results.

Hi all,

i found this link:

https://medium.com/@alencarrebeca/working-with-nrf24l01-communicating-with-nrf24l01-pa-na-b1466b4f3223

It seams to explain some of the problems i'm having.

Can anyone confirm this?

Thank you in advance.

Hi All,

after building the gateway with the w5100 shield + Uno R3 + NRF24L01, it starts, i can telnet to it, it responds.

Power supply is a 9V 1A feeding the Uno

After a while, it becomes unresponsive, telnet does not work, but it responds to pings.

Also extended with the leds for error, tx and rx, but these does not work.

Any hint what can be happening?

Thx in advance.

Hi,

i built the following:

HI All!

i'm struggling to build the ethernet gateway, using the arduino nano v3.0, nrf24l01 and enc28j60.

what i'm facing:

fixed ip works, dhcp (commenting out the fixed ip) causes compilation error (arduino IDE)
having usb cable plugged to nano v3.0 to computer and power supply connected ping works.
disconnecting the usb cable, ping stops (power supply and ethernet connected)

Anyone have it working?
What can you tell me about?
Which problems are knowns?
Is it reliable to be in production (work as expected, without extensive maintenence due errors, etc)?

Those questions refers to my intention to have it working with minimal intervention once installed and configured, and i don't want to start a learning curve to spend lot of time supporting it.

Thx for all help you may provide.

pw44

i really can't figure what is going on. with usb connected, i can ping to gateway, with usb disconnected, ping stops. yes, i have a 2 A power supply delivering 3,3 V to nano v3, rf42 and ens28j60 and ethernet cable on rj45.

does anyone have a reliable gateway working able to share the knowledge with me?

pw44

i built the ethernet gateway with the ENC28J60 module, arduino nano v3.0 and RF24 radio, using this guide and there are three problems which i'm not being able to solve (i used the https://github.com/mysensors/MySensorsArduinoExamples/tree/master/libraries/UIPEthernet, as suggested).

fixed ip, connected to power supply, ethernet cable and usb - ping works, but HA does not "sees"
fixed ip, connected to power supply, ethernet cable but no usb - ping does not works ????
commented ip definition, to enable dchp - does not work.
seams the instructions are outdated -
i really need help to make it work.
thx

for testing, i installed also mycontroller, but seams there is no interaction.

also trying to make it dhcp (commenting out the ip line), does not work (complie error).

beside that, disconnecting the usb cabe makes it becomes unresponsive to ping, even powered and connected to the ethernet cable.

Home Assistant Core also does not connect to it.

Thx in advance for any help.

@pw44

Hi All,

when i disconnect the usb cable (power is on and ethernet cable connected), the gateway stops responding to ping.

Any hint?

BR

pw44

@TRS-80 said in mysensor gateway with ENC28J60 Ethernet doubts!:

@pw44 said in mysensor gateway with ENC28J60 Ethernet doubts!:

seams there is no interaction

This is what it looks like to me, too.

I base that on:

13182 GWT:TSA:ETH OK which I am guessing means Ethernet is working?

Then it just keeps sending GWT:RFC:MSG=0;255;3;0;2; which, according to log parser and serial protocol API documentation command internal (3) value of 2 is "I_VERSION" described as "Used to request gateway version from controller." And because it just keeps sending it over and over, I agree with you, and also think that is where the problem lie.

Any progress on your end in the meantime?

No no progress yet. Does not speaks with mycontroller or home assistant.

pw44

@mfalkvidd

ok, i was curious as i didn't find how to.

Anyway, is it possible to have the "RF24 IRQ" used as soft?

pw44

@mfalkvidd said in Gateway Uno R3 + W5100 Ethernet Shield for Uno not working.:

@pw44 unless your nodes send very frequently, you probably don’t need irq.

If you need irq, you’ll need to use hardware spi.

Ok, but just in case, how to use the hardware spi in this configurartion (sorry if it seams stupid, but i'm just a very beginner on this).

Thx for the understanding and also for educating me,.

pw44

@mfalkvidd
thank for the answer.

i guess the UNO R3 is capable to do it, so, i tried

#define MY_RX_MESSAGE_BUFFER_FEATURE
#define MY_RF24_IRQ_PIN 3

and got the following error:

#error RF24 IRQ usage cannot be used with Soft SPI

Any hint? The idea is having something like 80 nodes when all is done.

Thx

pw44

@Yveaux and regardin IRQ from RF24, is it necessary to connect to pin2 of UNO R3?

pw44

@Yveaux

thanks man, you're right. commenting out

//#define MY_W5100_SPI_EN 4

solved it.

just another question: does the 3.3v line from Uno R# enough power to handle the RF24 radio?

Thx in advance!

pw44

@Yveaux

@Yveaux said in Gateway Uno R3 + W5100 Ethernet Shield for Uno not working.:

@pw44 why are spi clk/miso/mosi connected to A0.. 2 ¿

as described in https://www.mysensors.org/build/ethernet_gateway

pw44

@Yveaux
Thanks for the reply, removing the sd card or applying your fix did not change the problem.

pw44

these are the real photos of the setup.

wire codes are the same as the build instructions

managing the SPI_EN signal? tried with and without, no changes.

dhcp served by dnsmasq. all other devices work without problem.

@mfalkvidd
no controller yet. i need to make the gateway at least be recognized by the network, either way.

udp, for dhcp.

@mfalkvidd said in Gateway Uno R3 + W5100 Ethernet Shield for Uno not working.:

@pw44 the dhcp communication uses udp of course, but after that the MySensors gateway will use tcp unless MY_USE_UDP is defined.

The gateway doesn't respond to icmp ping?

Next step would be to check the gateway's debug log.

if MY_USER_UDP is commented out, i understand that no UPD is enabled from start, correct?

enabling MY_USER_UDP requires #define MY_CONTROLLER_IP_ADDRESS 192, 168, 178, 254
and #define MY_CONTROLLER_URL_ADDRESS "my.controller.org"

by enabling fixed ip, none of both is required, which is something not very clear for me.

@pw44 which machine are you running the arp command on? The router?
Is 192.168.80.115 the IP the router assigned to the MySensors gateway?

my server (dnsmasq, dhcp server) - 192.168.80.4
adsl + router - 192.168.80.1

mysensor gateway - 192.168.80.115 assigned by 192.168.80.4 (dhcp server)

with fixed ip address it worked, but i guess maybe udp is not active at mysensors gateway.

@mfalkvidd , thank you.

no problem, host name can be assined by dhcp.

problem is that commenting out the ip address, letting dhcp take care produces:

$ arp
Address HWtype HWaddress Flags Mask Iface
192.168.80.115 (incomplete) enp2s0

@pw44 what type of hostname are you referring to?
hostname to identify itself

@mfalkvidd said in Gateway Uno R3 + W5100 Ethernet Shield for Uno not working.:

To expand, there are two types of hostnames often used: a mDNS hostname and a hostname option in the DHCP request.

The reason MY_HOSTNAME doesn't have any effect is that MY_HOSTNAME is only supported by ESP8266 and ESP32. I'll amend the documentation to include that information.

Some additional info: https://forum.arduino.cc/index.php?topic=622543.0
got it.

@mfalkvidd

Thx, man!

and to set the hostname? tried MY_HOSTNAME "MySensorsGW" , but no luck

@mfalkvidd

Thank you for answering, and helping to solve. Having the radio module plugged, it worked.

How to define it as a dhcp client instead of setting a fixed ip address, having only the mac address defined?

Thx in advance!

Hya,

My network:

192.168.80.1 -> 0.0.0.0 (gateway)
192.168.80.4 (dns, dhcp)

192.168.80.20 -> mysensors gateway

not plugged the radio yet.

after assembling the pack Uno R3 + W5100 Ethernet Shield for Uno, i flashed the following sketch:

// Enable debug prints to serial monitor
#define MY_DEBUG

// Enable and select radio type attached
#define MY_RADIO_RF24
//#define MY_RADIO_NRF5_ESB

#define MY_W5100_SPI_EN 4

// Enable Soft SPI for NRF radio (note different radio wiring is required)
// The W5100 ethernet module seems to have a hard time co-operate with
// radio on the same spi bus.
#if !defined(MY_W5100_SPI_EN) && !defined(ARDUINO_ARCH_SAMD)

// If using static ip you can define Gateway and Subnet address as well
#define MY_IP_GATEWAY_ADDRESS 192,168,80,4
#define MY_IP_SUBNET_ADDRESS 255,255,255,0

//#define MY_CONTROLLER_IP_ADDRESS 192, 168, 178, 254
//#define MY_CONTROLLER_URL_ADDRESS "my.controller.org"

// The MAC address can be anything you want but should be unique on your network.

#include <MySensors.h>

void setup()
{
	// Setup locally attached sensors
}

void presentation()
{
	// Present locally attached sensors here
}

void loop()
{
	// Send locally attached sensors data here
}

Upload to Uno R3 was successful, and plunging to the ethernet switch, only green led on the RJ45 lights, arp does not shows the mac address defined and ip defined does not pings.

May i ask for help in order to solve?

Thx in advance.
