    • RE: UI5 Mysensors library 2.0 gateway issues

      Im on UI7 and have the same issue, on the github development all files are many many months old, the should be newer than like 8 months???

    • RE: Getting the Ethernet/ESP8266 gateway to act as client instead of server

      @mfalkvidd

      Hi,

      I have look at both of them... But my interest lies in the esp8266 as a client/node without NRF24L01, to eg switch a relay on/off... And it has to go through my Vera controller... I have been playing with Apples Homekit, Raspberry Pi and Vera, and now i can control my vera switches and dimmers with just my voice

      @hek

      Hi, In the 3 post is there a link https://github.com/mysensors/Arduino/blob/development/libraries/MySensors/examples/GatewayESP8266/GatewayESP8266.ino#L104... The link is dead and i tried to find it, but with no luck... Can you post the new URL?

    • RE: Ethernet Gateway without NRF24L01+

      Hi,

      I did'nt have much succes with the radiodevice, and i have made the gateway 🙂

      But have i missed the code eg for the sensors???

      Hi,

      That im will try to work with 🙂 I have seen the one in your post, and i hope the one from dx is the same, but i'll keep you posted 🙂

    • RE: Arduino 220V AC wattmeter

      Hi,

      I found module from DX that i want to try, i dont want to mess with 220v cables 😉 So i waiting for this one to come 🙂
      http://www.dx.com/p/yqj010504-single-phase-ac-current-sensor-module-w-active-output-deep-blue-5a-294209#.VDOyK2d_t8E

      They also have this item, but then you have to play with high voltage...

    • Arduino 220V AC wattmeter

      Hi,

      I have a lot of arduinos lying around and thinking on turning them into a poweroutlet ac wattmeter... I have googled a lot and there are several solutions... But have any of you made a "poweroutlet ac wattmeter" connected to a GW?

    • RE: Lost USB/Serial Port Connection on Vera 3 AGAIN

      Hi,

      I triede it with version 1.2 and it worked fine, but a had to use the serial port in the vera for a RF device i changede it to ethernet version. Now i dont use the RF device anymore, in the meantime i was on version 1.3... So i decieded to upgrade to 1.4 and use the serial GW... None of my many Uno's Nano's and even a MEGA worked, the Vera couldnt see any USB, so i triede also with a powered HUB, different types of USB cables, still nothing... The i went back to the 1.3 version still nothing... Then i made a complete reset of the vera nad connected the Serial GW again, nothing...

      Hmm, thinking if i should try the old 1.2 again or just keep the ethernet GW shield...

      Regards

    • RE: PhoneyTV for Vera is Here!

      @BulldogLowell

      Okay, now i better understand, because in the schematics the J1 is connected to pin 3 and i didnt get it to work, but also the D1 you use is Blue, but in the sketch the first one you use is white 😉 So now i got the 6 diodes connected, what about the other 6? 🙂 are the connected parallel? (whites, red greens etc)

      Regards Jan

      @BulldogLowell

      Hi

      Im a bit confused about the J1 in the schematic... It seems you dont use it or i dont understand what it is 🙂
      But how is the diodes then connected to the board?

    • Binarysensor with sleep

      Hi,
      I want to make a snail mail sensor (battery operated), and tried to add sleep_time to the binary sketch, i want it to wake up every hour and send if has been tripped... But nothing, hope anyone can help...

      Here's the sketch: (5 seconds sleep 😉 )

      #include <Sleep_n0m1.h>
      #include <Sensor.h>
      #include <SPI.h>
      #include <EEPROM.h>
      #include <RF24.h>
      #include <Bounce2.h>

      #define BUTTON_PIN 3 // Arduino Digital I/O pin for button/reed switch

      Sensor gw;
      Sleep sleep;
      unsigned long SLEEP_TIME = 5000; // sleep time between reads (seconds * 1000 milliseconds)
      Bounce debouncer = Bounce();
      int oldValue=-1;

      void setup()
      {
      gw.begin();

      // Setup the button
      pinMode(BUTTON_PIN,INPUT);
      // Activate internal pull-up
      digitalWrite(BUTTON_PIN,HIGH);

      // After setting up the button, setup debouncer
      debouncer.attach(BUTTON_PIN);
      debouncer.interval(5);

      // Register binary input sensor to gw (they will be created as child devices)
      // You can use S_DOOR, S_MOTION or S_LIGHT here depending on your usage.
      // If S_LIGHT is used, remember to update variable type you send in below.
      gw.sendSensorPresentation(BUTTON_PIN, S_DOOR);
      }

      // Check if digital input has changed and send in new value
      void loop()
      {
      debouncer.update();
      // Get the update value
      int value = debouncer.read();

      if (value != oldValue) {
      // Send in the new value
      gw.sendVariable(BUTTON_PIN, V_TRIPPED, value==HIGH ? "1" : "0"); // Change to V_LIGHT if you use S_LIGHT in presentation above
      oldValue = value;
      }
      // Power down the radio. Note that the radio will get powered back up
      // on the next write() call.
      gw.powerDown();
      sleep.pwrDownMode(); //set sleep mode
      sleep.sleepDelay(SLEEP_TIME); // sleep for SLEEP_TIME
      }

    • RE: VERA 2 Device Install

      Yes, it was blank until i choose port 80...

      I choose 192.168.1.166 as ip for my ethernet gateway, but it didn't work for me with the standard port 5003 (192.168.1.166:5003), but when i changed it in the sketch to port 80 and also in the MySensors Plugin, then it worked.

    • RE: This is driving me nuts :-)

      Yep tried with decoupling capacitor, i didn't had 4,7 at home but tried with 2,2 and 10, nothing, Triede with 2 uno, one mega and one diecimila and 2 nano's and 11 nrf24l01 (one with external antenna). And no matter what i try, i can only get 3 boards/antenna's to work... So i have ordered some new antenna's and will buy 4,7 decoupling capacitor's soon...

      Hi,

      Just got me a new nrf24l01 with external antenna, and now it works 🙂 I have triede about 5-6 "normal" nrf24l01, but this one did it all 🙂
      So with debug enabled on the sensors, i finally get logs like this...

    • RE: This is driving me nuts :-)

      Hi,

      Eg in the humiditysensor sketch there is already Serial.println("Failed reading temperature from DHT");
      But nothing at all is showing in the serial monitor (also tried different baudrates)... I'm using Plugin version 1.3 and Arduinolib is 1.3b3 (7afb55c)

    • This is driving me nuts :-)

      Hi,

      I have a problem, hope you can help...

      I have been playing with arduino for a long time and got a Vera Light last year... And this weekend i decided to play with them both 🙂

      I have tried both the serial and ethernet gateway (with Mega, Uno and Nano, only the Uno on serial), im sure that the NRF24L01 are working and are wired correctly (SPI on 5,6 also tried 9,10), but with the RF24, gettingstarted i get fine ping/pong results. And everything seemes fine on the Vera (i had some trouble getting it to update what Lib version i was using).

      But when i set the Vera's MySensor plugin to start inclusion, nothing, and i have triede many thing... So what to try next? One thing i dont understand is when i use sketches that are doing serial.printf, noting is showing in the serial monitor???

      Hope to get some help 🙂

      Regards,
      Jan
