  • VeraPlus - sensors not showing data on dashboard

    It might be with the sensor itself? My readins are very unrealiable:

    Its a DHT11

    Also - I tried to reboot Vera and now I got "MySensors plugin : Cannot send command - communications error" ....

  • VeraPlus - sensors not showing data on dashboard

    Hello all,

    So I got my ethernet GW going , as well as my first testing sensor and I run on VeraPlus gateway.
    The sensor is working and the gateway is ethernet GW is recieving data:

    0_1465632197216_upload-f217000c-62a6-46e8-9aa7-c923f22788ec

    It is a bit unstable - sometimes I get: "Failed reading humidity from DHT" but most of the time it works ok. I do not have a resistor on the PCB for the DHT though.

    On vera the recognition of the sensor went fine, I got a node and 2 readings - temp and humidity. My problem really is that although I can see the values being recieved by the GW via serial monitor - Vera does not show it - it's just blank:

    Any ideas?

    Gents (and Ladies) my plugin as depicted does not have an inclusion start/stop button as referenced for other Vera models. Do I start the inclusion process in the same fashion as for other Z-wave devices using Vera inclusion?

    One observation: Having the GW next to my Vera, it seems some of my Z-wave devices that I had placed further away, now can't connect - strange, it seems like the range has decreased but I have to test it properly.

    Wow , ok with the approach from Peter/BartE it showed up.
    0_1463470480360_upload-02def1c9-a76e-44b3-bb1c-514df0c64b62

    Now I guess I have to configure it:
    For the Used by device: setting, select the Arduino Gateway Plugin [] from the menu of available devices.
    Set baud rate to 115200.
    Set the parity to none with 8 data bits and 1 stop bit.

    I don't see Arduino GW plugin - but I see MySensors Plugin (if this is right then I suggest to update the Vera setup page).
    So it's configured and I see : 0_1463470655308_upload-a29c6d2f-65ec-44e5-94e4-deeb46c3c54c

    I will try to plug in some sensor to test it out but I must say that if the power goes out and Its stuck then I have a problem. Would you say that the Ethernet GW has the same issue? Has anyone tested it?

    BTW. Thanks guys - you rock!

    Yes, this occurred to me as well so I changed for other USB mini cable. No change. too bad I don't have more Nano's lying around to test it - but this one was used for testing of the NRF transciever some 2 years back. I just connected it to PC , loaded the new sketch and connected to Vera.

    Hello Hek,

    I believe the FTDI is genuine, have a look - it's a bit blurry

    For the import of the vera files I used Vera-UI7 branch - imported actually all that was in except the CONTRIBUTING.md, .project and .gitattributes.

    Dear friends,

    Having purchased the new Vera plus I waned to start attaching my custom sensors into the controllers.
    The checklist first:

    1. Mysensors plugin - seemed all ok, uploaded all jsons and xml definition files, created the device, powercycled - gateway showed up, although with an error.
      0_1463335756872_upload-d7c3c996-65a0-4eff-a438-6b8e3e5af0df

    2. Connected the serial gateway - checked wiring, used V3 board, uploaded the code, and as seen below the pwr and red light are on (all the time).
      0_1463335827261_upload-e90288d4-f3c0-4d02-af4f-02b88415ba35

    3. App - went into serial port configuration and no luck - device not there. Powercycled several times - no luck.

    4. Plugin version 1.5 - attaching variables (UI7) - dashboard shows the below all the time:
      0_1463336015019_upload-2bbf05e7-4b06-47ad-9fcf-622c8b8dea3e

    5. Parameters:
      0_1463336060735_upload-5552b13a-ee33-4548-a950-cfcaf6bcbc0f

    6.Variables:
    0_1463336094829_upload-ab1ad5c2-177b-41d7-a9ed-be1f0fab82ef

    This is all I could think of - browsed the forum and sam a lot of possible topics but in all cases the device got recognized somehow but did not work - mine is not showing up. I have a IP GW module en route but till then I wanted to try the serial one first.

    I would really appreciate your feedback and experience with this. Anything I can do?

    Thanks!
