Thanks @gohan it works perfectly using a digital pin and the door sensor example.

Event scripting (lua? really?) needs more advanced features.

You should check out dzVents which makes LUA-scripting much more powerful and even simpler.

@mfalkvidd Thanks for the quick answer! I also read on the page for battery powered sensors that the step up generates alot of noise that can interfere with the radio, and that a solution might be to add capacitators (which I already tried), but also powering the radio directly from batteries. I'll try that later today. Thanks!

And thank you for the link to the troubleshooting. It's now bookmarked!

@gohan Thanks for your help, it sure would have been easier to just buy a Sonoff, but I wouldn't learn as much

Were you thinking of something like this? (Don't mind me using a LED in replacement of a lamp).

Is it possible to update the article with a code example for a gateway that also uses NodeManager?

@mickecarlsson Thanks, I will try that later today

@Sergio-Rius Thanks man! I will definitely take a closer look. I just one silly last question....

Trying to use a simple DS18B20 temperature sensor, and I get the following error:

error: 'SENSOR_DS18B20' was not declared in this scope
nodeManager.registerSensor(SENSOR_DS18B20,3);

Seems like it doesn't like me declaring it. I have installed Dallas Temperature and One Wire through Arduino libraries.

@Sergio-Rius I think I understood it correctly. Code goes on the sensors, not on the gateway itself? That means, the MySensors Serial Gateway I use is only a carrier of the messages that NodeManager receives on the sensors I implement the code?

I have a hard time figuring out one simple thing... Is the NodeManager code supposed to be on the sensors? Or is it supposed to be on the Gateway? Or both??

Ah, thanks! I have actually seen that video ages ago

I was wondering about what I need for parts in the case of resistors etc.

I've been looking into making my own lab bench power supply out of the PSU of an old computer. I've seen a lot of videos on YouTube, but I just wanted to make a thread about it here just in case someone has already done it and can share some experiences.

The idea came after I figured out it could be nice to easily switch between 3.3, 5 and 12 V power when testing out my Arduino components.

Would be awesome if you made a fritz sketch of this

@Oitzu Thanks! I'll try that one out :simple_smile:
