@riochicken I figured it out, i am using rpi3 and apparently a couple files in the mysensors folder needed to be edited. Now since you use vera when building the sensors are you making any special edits or just using defaults from the sketches. I see some people have sleep times and other small adjustments.

I know 0.00001 about Vera (i know just the name), but i probably can help you light up an RGB LED. Can you post any code you already have running on an Arduino? I know there is a S_RGB_LIGHT message in MySensors.. So i guess: it is also known/recognized by Vera. shoot!

@riochicken said in Imperihome and mysensors distance sensor: Hi all, For some reason I cannot see my distance sensor which I created with mysensors help and in combination with my Vera in Imperihome, it's in a seperate 'room' but not showing at all while the other two in the group are showing, anybody any idea how to solve it? Can it be that the sensor is not presented to the vera as a real device? I do see the device in my Vera and it nicely displays the distance... I would like to see this sensor in my imperihome for obvious reasons.. Thanks in advance! Kind regards Richard Nobody any idea? Is nobody using the distance sensor?

Integration with mysensors it's up to you, you need to work with strings

I used a ESP8266WiFi module with a static IP address and that seems to be working fine, but then again, the car needs to be in the neighborhood... Would be nice to have something like a bluetooth module of some kind to detect a bluetooth device such as my phone... gotta keep on dreaming...

Ok, great! Hopefully the ethernet problems will be sorted out

I'm not sure what is going wrong either. What firmware is used in your Vera? It sounds like you are unable to put Vera in inclusion mode from the MySensors Plugin device. But there is also some communication issue since there are 2 messages failing to be sent: 0;255;3;0;9;!TSP:MSG:SEND 0-0-4-4 s=255,c=3,t=25,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=fail:1 I_PONG 25 In return to ping, sent back to sender, payload incremental hop counter 0;255;3;0;9;!TSP:MSG:SEND 0-0-4-4 s=255,c=3,t=27,pt=1,l=1,sg=0,ft=0,st=fail:1 I_REGISTRATION_RESPONSE 27 Register response from GW

Great! Thanks for reporting back

The capability to send SMS is not really needed in the MySensors library itself, but the Adafruit FONA library works together with the MySensors library (DEV version anyway). I added a sketch which make a node a SMS gateway if it is equipped with a SIM800L module. You can find it on Openhardware.io: https://www.openhardware.io/view/11/ACDCBatteries-capable-atmega328p-board The sketch is available under the design files and is now part of the MySensors library examples (again in the development version only). If you want to get notified of the fact that your internet connection is down, you will need to make something on the controller side to notice this and then send a V_TEXT to the node itself, or change a "switch" on the node, so that it can trigger the sending of a SMS.
