Hello,
Thank you for sharing this project. I have built it and am testing it on my outdoor lights.
.
I have three issues I can't seem to figure out and am hoping others may have had similar problems and figured out a fix.
First some background. I built a double relay board and have 120V 60 hz power. I am controlling it through MyNodes 2.0. I am using an unedited version of the source code. My networks includes about 7 other nodes that are only measuring temperature. Half of them are set up to be repeater nodes. I was suspicious that I may be getting interference from the other nodes causing the problem but have had the same problems with the other nodes disabled.
Here are the issues I am trying to fix.
- I am finding that the relays will not stay in the position they are controlled to be in. Mostly they close when controlled to be open but also they are opening when controlled to be closed.
- When in a closed state relay 1 flickers every few minutes. I have replaced this relay and still have the same issue.
- The hardwired switch control isn't working for me work. The switch only causes a flicker in the lights.
Any suggestions? For me Half of the fun in the projects is trouble shooting and making them work. I'll send updates on any fixes I come across.
