Hello,

i try to build new Gateway for my Problem and Upload the same sketch, but the new Gateway do not connect to the router. I reminded the China NodeMCU have problems with Serial.begin and with WIFI.beginn. It need a delay after.
I found the WIFI.begin in the "MyGatewayTransportEthernet.cpp" file and see a wait(500). See my last post wait/delay, so I changed from wait to delay and the Gateway connect.
If you can try to change it too or change from 500 to 1000.
But i use the 2.2.0 dev.

Thomas

Hello,

The NodeMCU looks like my.
and your ESP8266 Arduino version?
maybe there is a new version.
What Router or Access Point do you use?

regards
ThomasD

@pihome Hello,

and what type of ESP8266 you have?
Can you try a other one?
I have some NodeMCU V0.9 with TCP and UDP in client mode with AVM Router and Repeater.
Without problems.

regards
ThomasD

Hello,

there is a possibility to check the connection.
I will test with receive command from controller to the gateway and write a timeout to reset the ESP with ESP.reset or ESP.restart.

regards
ThomasD

Hello,

do you use only the Gateway Code or is there anybody else in your code?
If you do anybody else you need delays in the code.
I think the Arduino "delay()" not the "wait()".
Wait do Mysensors things.
Delay do WIFI things.

Hello,

in contrast to the topic "WiFi Gateway (ESP8266) - reconnect to Router", I have the problem with reconnecting to the controller.
The Gateway is made of the nodeMCU V0.9 and the NRF24L01+ in TCP Client Mode.
I try to reboot the Router, the Gateway connects easily, switch the AP, also no problem. Restart the Controller. But the Gateway does not reconnect.
After rebooting the Gateway the connection stays immediately.
Is there a solution for this?

regards
ThomasDr

@rejoe2
I'm assuming the Wifi is the best solution, but if RF868 would be better I'll look at it again.

I also have a couple Xbee module Series 1, could you start something else?

Perhaps also an idea add Xbee to the Mysensor API.

regards
ThomasD

@rejoe2 said in Connenct a RS485 Network to a NodeMCU Gateway?:

Just some guesses:

Btw: What is your motivation to build a wired network and then connect the whole thing wirelessly to your controller? (I personally try to get rid of all RF transmissions, so this is why I use RS485 as preferred transport layer and connect the whole thing via USB...)

Hello,

i will build a few Sensors in the yard and i thing the best way to connect these Sensor Array to the Controller is WIFI.

regards
ThomasD

Hello,

where connect the Pins DI, DE, RE, RO on the NodeMCU?
And how do I define the pins in the sketch?

regards
ThomasD

Hello,

i send a command at git, can any one test this fix?

regards
ThomasD

@gohan Hello,
My thought is simpler.
The original sensor is too expensive.
With a Reedcontact I must find the right position.
The magnetometer I could simply attach somewhere in the proximity.

regards
ThomasD

@Yveaux Sorry, it is 1 puls at 0.01 m3
That depends on the gas meter you use, the BK4 gives a magnetic pulse per 0.01 m3.
For this puls you can use a reed contact or a magnetometer.

regards
ThomasD

Hello,

here my sketch to form a puls:

Hello,

i have the same Project, i use a HMC5983 magnetometer.
i'm testing now, but it looks good.

regards
ThomasD

Hallo,

can a Gateway in Client Mode connect to 2 Controller?

regards
ThomasD

Hello,

I think I have found the error.
I use a 15sec. loop in the sketch and i thing a intern watchdog reset the Node.

regards
Thomas

Hello,

!TSM:FPAR:FAIL

the FAQ say this means a gateway / controller problem.
I can see the gateway hang. After reboot the gateway, the Node do the presentation
and reboot.
I can't find info's for "MC0"

Hello,

i use a Arduino Nano with mybootloader V13pre and the NRF24 Radio.
This Node works and i try to upload a new sketch.
First time the Node run in to a bootloop and i upload the sketch again.
The Node start, but i get this error.
I use the cleaneprom sketch to without result.

Hello,

i see this is a old posting, but i have the same problem. But i found an error.
I use

send(summsg.set(sum));

but this work:

send(summsg.set(sum,5));

Hello,

I found the mistake, I had to set the gateway as a client.
