      @Matt-Pitts then you need to check your conenction to all wires and if are correctly. Check first post as there is a picture.

      @Matt-Pitts on 3 is short press and in code is scene on and on long press is 7 scene off

      MyMessage scene(KEYPAD_CHILD_ID, V_SCENE_ON); //scene ON
      MyMessage scene2(KEYPAD_CHILD_ID, V_SCENE_OFF); //scene OFF
      
      
              send(scene2.set(keyInt));
            } else {
            send(scene.set(keyInt));```

      @petewill
      Works with DHT22 and other library (old one). I could not make it work withe one from example.

      I'm almost ready with build, waiting for final pieces. hope to receive them this week.
      one more ting i noticed is that clock is behind with 2minutes, so i need to check the code again.

    • RE: 💬 Insulated Whole House Fan

      I can confirm that DHT library that is in example do not work with DHT11 and DHT22 in my case, using other (older) library i can see data.

      @flyswiftly
      I also did that try an older version library for DHT and receive data. So conclusion is that on current (latest) DHT library for DHT11 is not working. Now I'm on a business trip to China for a week and With this chance i will buy there DHT 22 to be sure. I will be back in a week with conclusion.

      @flyswiftly thanks for trying,

      in my case still i do not see any data. What library do you use ? The one from MySensorsArduinoExamples-master.zip ?

      This is the output that i get. Maybe you can understand why. And this is a clean example. Anyone have make temp DHT11 to work in version2 ?

      Yes, debug is enabled, see the code adapted for v2, below. I have build separate node for testing only temp and hum and no data is coming too (several DHT11 used).. i used example that come from library. (example used is this https://github.com/mysensors/MySensorsArduinoExamples/blob/master/examples/DhtTemperatureAndHumiditySensor/DhtTemperatureAndHumiditySensor.ino )

      @rechin304 said:

      This is hat i made until now. I have two issues:

      1. DHT11 is not working (no temp or hum is shown)
      2. I use Domoticz as controller and i do not see the node connecting to it, even the clock is sync with gateway. Gateway is version 2. So please if you have some time to look at the code your help be highly appreciated. Thanks.

       *******************************
      
         REVISION HISTORY
         Version 1.0 - Initial code
         Version 2.0 - Changed for Mysensors v2
         
         DESCRIPTION
         The code below will run a MySensors whole house fan with wall mounted lcd control panel.  The fan is installed in the attic and an insulated cover will 
         open/close to conserve energy.  The project cost a little over $300 US.  A comparable commercial product costs around $1200.
         
         FEATURES
         - Physical button switch to control on/off in case there are ever issues with radio communications.  
         - DHT22 sensor for temp/humidity monitoring in the attic
         - LCD screen displays status, temp/humidity, errors & date/time
         - If an error occurs a message is sent to the gateway
         - When the unit looses power it will make sure the cover is closed and the fan is off after power is restored.
         - Safety Features
      	- The cover will wait to close until power has been shut off to the fan
      	- Customizable over current protection on the cover motor (automatically shut off if the cover gets stuck)
      	- Customizable cover close time limit (if it slips out off the coupling the motor won't run indefinitely)
      
         NOTE
         This program is too large to run with all debugging and the display enabled.
         To upload either comment out "#define DEBUG_ON" in the code below or comment out
         "#define DEBUG" in MyConfig.h in the MySensors library.
         For troubleshooting "#ifdef TFT_DISPLAY_ON" can be commented out so all debugging
         messages can be output to the serial monitor

      Hi @petewill , i do not see anything on serial monitor related to temp or hum, and yes is connected correctly on A0, everything now works ok, except temp and hum. I do not have yet an DHT22 to test.

      Small progress. It can be seen now in Domoticz, however DHT11 not working.

    • RE: 💬 Insulated Whole House Fan

      This is hat i made until now. I have two issues:

      1. DHT11 is not working (no temp or hum is shown)
      2. I use Domoticz as controller and i do not see the node connecting to it, even the clock is sync with gateway. Gateway is version 2. So please if you have some time to look at the code your help be highly appreciated. Thanks.

         The MySensors Arduino library handles the wireless radio link and protocol
         between your home built sensors/actuators and HA controller of choice.
         The sensors forms a self healing radio network with optional repeaters. Each
         repeater and gateway builds a routing tables in EEPROM which keeps track of the

       *******************************
      
         REVISION HISTORY
         Version 1.0 - Initial code
         Version 2.0 - Changed for Mysensors v2
         
         DESCRIPTION
         The code below will run a MySensors whole house fan with wall mounted lcd control panel.  The fan is installed in the attic and an insulated cover will 
         open/close to conserve energy.  The project cost a little over $300 US.  A comparable commercial product costs around $1200.
         
         FEATURES
         - Physical button switch to control on/off in case there are ever issues with radio communications.  
         - DHT22 sensor for temp/humidity monitoring in the attic
         - LCD screen displays status, temp/humidity, errors & date/time
         - If an error occurs a message is sent to the gateway
         - When the unit looses power it will make sure the cover is closed and the fan is off after power is restored.
         - Safety Features
      	- The cover will wait to close until power has been shut off to the fan
      	- Customizable over current protection on the cover motor (automatically shut off if the cover gets stuck)
      	- Customizable cover close time limit (if it slips out off the coupling the motor won't run indefinitely)
      
         NOTE
         This program is too large to run with all debugging and the display enabled.
         To upload either comment out "#define DEBUG_ON" in the code below or comment out
         "#define DEBUG" in MyConfig.h in the MySensors library.
         For troubleshooting "#ifdef TFT_DISPLAY_ON" can be commented out so all debugging
         messages can be output to the serial monitor

      @petewill I already build the wooden box, and i have all electronic parts. I do wait for threaded rod, threaded Insert, Ball Bearing to arrive from china. I just finish today the shield that will hold arduino, testing lcd screen (i have a different version then you have, less pin's and no need for resistors). I will try to convert your schetch latter to V2 (still need to make an gateway for V2). If successful i will post the code.

      and
      
      //LiquidCrystal_I2C lcd(0x27, 2, 1, 0, 4, 5, 6, 7, 3, POSITIVE);  // Set the LCD I2C address to 0x27

           }
      

      I did this so all relays on is ok now.
      What i miss is to start individual zones more than once at a time :).

      Well, that's not the point.
      I will have 4 zones that need different type of water needs. For example one zone will be with micro irrigation watering, another one with lawn sprinkler. i do not understand why not to start all zones at once and they will finish according to the time set and not to start one after other. Another thing is why to wait for a zone to finish when you trigger another one.

      To start all valve at once when is trigger all zones i did change:

      else if (state == RUN_ALL_ZONES)
        {
          if (lastValve != valveNumber)
          {
            for (byte i = 0; i <= NUMBER_OF_VALVES; i++)
            {
              if (i == 0 || i == valveNumber)
              {
                gw.send(msg1valve.setSensor(i).set(true), false);
              }
              else
              {
                gw.send(msg1valve.setSensor(i).set(false), false);
              }
            }
          }
          lastValve = valveNumber;
          fastToggleLed();
          if (state != lastState)
          {
            valveNumber = 1;
            updateRelays(ALL_VALVES_OFF);
            DEBUG_PRINTLN(F("State Changed, Running All Zones..."));
          }
          unsigned long nowMillis = millis();
          if (nowMillis - startMillis < VALVE_RESET_TIME)
          {
            updateRelays(ALL_VALVES_OFF);
          }
          else if (nowMillis - startMillis < (allZoneTime[valveNumber] * 60000UL))
          {
            updateRelays(BITSHIFT_VALVE_NUMBER);
          }
          else
      

      with

      else if (state == RUN_ALL_ZONES)
        {
          if (lastValve != valveNumber)
          {

              }
              else
              {
                gw.send(msg1valve.setSensor(i).set(true), false); //to update domoticz
              }
            }
          }
          lastValve = valveNumber;
          fastToggleLed();

      Dear all,

      i have trying to make the irrigation controller to start all zones in same time and run for the specified. I'm using version for domoticz. Can you please help me out with hint of what i can change in the code ?
      Another thing is that from domoticsz when i start a zone that zone start and previous is stopped but that status is not updated.

      Thank you in advance.

      P.S. I will post some pictures of the hardware build soon.
