Sorry but do I understand correctly that relay should be visible as a Sensor in MyController?

Of course it was issue on my side. My understanding was that GW baud rate in mycontroller should be baud rate of RS485. When I changed baud rate to correct value everything works well. Nod is added automatically.

But I would like to kindly ask you for next suggestion.

I plan to use one Arduino to monitor Temp, Hum and CO2. Those sensors are presented in MyController as static now.

Additionally script should control 3 relays. I added relay script from My sensors but I have no idea where I should see those relays in MyController and how to control them manually

Gateway

Node

Unfortunately function discover does not add anything

Hello,

I would like to ask you for your help. I frozen on adding a Nodes to Mycontroller.

I am using Serial RS485 gateway - This I managed to add to MyController

As a Nod I am using DHT sketch with RS485 enabled and NOD definition

#define MY_NODE_ID 22
#define MY_PARENT_NODE_ID 0

If I try to add Node manually Node is in status down

Communication between GW and Node works well

Hi,

I have the same issue.

I used example library and upload Serial Gateway RS485 and Motion Sensor RS485. Both to Arduino UNO. Wiring according to (https://forum.mysensors.org/assets/uploads/files/1585670689122-example-rs485-mqtt.p)

Try with NODE ID definition or without

#define MY_PARENT_NODE_ID 0

Thnak you for any help!!

I found an root cause.

In pin definition was

#define AIQ_SENSOR_ANALOG_PIN 1

but should be

#define AIQ_SENSOR_ANALOG_PIN A1

I do not know why with first definition it worked with nano but did not work with mini.

@rejoe2 said in MQ135 with RS485:

NodeID

Hmm, I tried to define sensor as 30 but still the same result. In log of sensor I can see

114895 TSF:MSG:SEND,30-30-255-255,s=255,c=3,t=7,pt=0,l=0,sg=0,ft=0,st=OK:

I think that it is not a case. As I told everything works with arduino nano.

How I can check if data from sensor are reading?
It seems that code does not continue if sensor is not connected to gateway.

Now I replaced mini pro and used nano instead. Data were send successfully.

Do you have any idea what can be wrong with mini pro?

Hello,

I try to get working my MQ135 on RS485 but I cannot manage to make it working.

I use UNO as Gateway + 2 separate sensors (DHT on UNO and MQ135 on pro mini 5V)
DHT works correctly but MQ135 does not work.

For testing purpose I disconnected DHT.

I wanted to be sure that MQ135 is connected correctly so I uploaded another code and everything works correctly, But with code below I cannot send data to gateway. I used as a source of code following MySensor forum code

Connection

MQ135 - arduino pro mini 5V
Vcc - Vcc 5V
GND - GND
AO - A1

RS485 - arduino pro mini 5V
DI - D9
R0 - D8
DE/RE - D2
GND - GND
Vcc - Vcc 5V
A - A(gateway RS485)
A - A(gateway RS485)

CODE

/*

  A H A   >>> 5V
  B       >>> A0

Thank you very much for any help!!!

Thank you very much for great explanation!!!

But is there a way how to connect ESP8266 to Controller. In MySensors are available just ethernet or serial gateway with NRF. Of course I can connect ESP to NRF and then use serial gateway but then there is no difference if I use ESP or nano.

My idea is that I want to use wireless network for sensors. One of my sensor should be LCD/TFT with touch so I wanted to prevent to use NRF (it occuy SPI)
https://forum.mysensors.org/topic/9276/home-automation-tft-touch-display

Hello,

Maybe I have a stupid question but I did not find proper information on this forum or internet.

Currently I use serial gateway (Uno + NRF24 connected via USB, MyController) for connection of sensors. So sensors are arduinos (uno, mini, ...) with sensor and NRF24.

And now my stupid question. Can I connect WeMos D1 mini directly to my gateway (without NRF24)? Both items works on 2.4GHz.

Thank you for your reply

Hello,

I would like to promote my home automation system and be able to control room settings for each room.

I use MySensors + MyController.

In rooms I measure Temperature, Humidity, AirQuality, and I control air condition, heating and electronic window blind.

I would like to have a TFT touch display in each room with possibility to see all measured values and (on button click or slide) + be able to control temperature (thermostat), open or close window blind.

Additionally i would like to build it small .. not like on mega but on nano. Unfortunatley NRF and TFT use MISO/MOSI so I need to use custom pins for TFT.

Do you know if it is doable and could you recommend solution/concept?

Thank you very much!
