Well that's embarrassing....

That was part of my testing to make sure it worked as a normal node. Looks like I forgot to put it back.

Thanks for pointing it out.

The log parser now works for me too. Thanks.

This is the output from the repeater node when I turn on the temperature node:

@rjad ,

Also, I have 4.7uF caps on all the radios. And even if I put the repeater a metre away from the temp node I get the same result. Its awkward getting the log from the repeater, but I'll get on it.

@mfalkvidd

When I go to the link https://www.mysensors.org/build/parser I get a page with the message:
!Doh.. This project isn't published!

Hi,
I'm having a lot of trouble getting a repeater node to work. I've tried to do some background on this, and have checked a few other posts that also seem to have trouble, but I'm not really any closer.

Here is my scenario:
I have a gateway connected to a raspberry pi.
I have a battery powered node (set node ID to 47). I'd like to be able to place this a fair distance away from the gateway, and so I need a repeater. I made a repeater node (node id set to 46).

The repeater node appears to connect to the gateway ok. The mobile temp node also connects ok if I'm close to the gateway. But doesn't seem to be able to use the repeater.

For testing, to try to force the temp node to use the repeater, I have set:

#define MY_NODE_ID 47                    //To set a fixed ID for your node
#define MY_PARENT_NODE_IS_STATIC
#define MY_PARENT_NODE_ID 46             //To set a fixed parent for this node

I noticed that if I didn't have MY_PARENT_NODE_IS_STATIC the node would still connect to the
gateway. If I defined it, then it seemed to only try to connect to the repeater node, which is what I want at least for testing.

So, I'm pretty sure the repeater node connects. Code for repeater is:

#include <Arduino.h>
#define MY_DEBUG
#define MY_RADIO_RF24
#include <SPI.h>
#define MY_NODE_ID 46                        //To set a fixed ID for your node
#define CHILD_ID 0
//#define MY_REPEATER_FEATURE
#include <MySensors.h>

MyMessage msg(CHILD_ID,V_TRIPPED);

void setup()
{
}
void presentation() {
  sendSketchInfo("Repeater Node", "1.1");
  present(CHILD_ID, S_DOOR);
}
void loop()
{

}

And output from gateway when connecting the repeater:

So seems ok. Connecting the temperature node, with debug on, serial output looks like:

I'm guessing that the repeater isn't forwarding the messages. I'm also having trouble parsing the log output. There are links to the message parser, but this doesn't seem to function anymore (https://www.mysensors.org/build/parser doesn't point to a project anymore).

If anyone could help interpret the messages that would be great.
