IT WORKS, thank you very much!
One thing, the interrupt (motion) status is only sent when the other data (temp hum) is being send. So once a minute it jumps from "on" to "off" in stead of every time the Sensor goes HI/LO.
Is there a way to fix that?
Thanks again, you are a HERO

Hi
I am having trouble combining multiple scetches into one node since the last mysensors library update.
I have combined the DHT and RELAY scetches and they work great. I just want to add an interrupt sensor (door, motion, whatever) to pin 3.
I think the problem is the sleep function. it is different in all 3 scetches, i am an absolute NOOB with programming, but simply cut/paste is not working anymore.

Can somebody please be of any assistance? You would save the day! thanks!

what DID happen the day before, was that when i added more WHITE, at around 60% white the whole unit stopped responding to any inputs, it would just freeze in that color, until i removed the 12v power supply. Also strange! :)

xypzo

@maghac The stupid thing, is that the day before, same setup, no red lights stayed on. It happened overnight!!! Maybe the mice did it! :')

xypzo

@maghac said in RGB LED strip:

your connections, perhaps you're connecting to the wrong pin on the arduino

Then green keeps on, so it should be a pin 6 problem, but i can't find it. Maybe I try a 10kohm resistor between gate and ground... Or IRFZ instead of IRLZ transistors.

BTW, bought a LD362A ufo which works great with my controller, but i still want to win this battle!

xypzo

I dont know what went wrong, but RED is just always on. Yesterday in the breadboard it was ok. Today in the breadboard red was on. So i thought lets just solder it... Now I soldered it to a pcb, RED on all the time. This must be a ground issue, but where do i look?

It is even red when just all the connections are off, 12v to raw and strip, then connect ground to arduino, BOOM red comes on...

Hey David,
Could you share the working code (with the SHARP sensor integrated) with us?

xypzo

Fhem tells me this all the time:
MYSENSORS: ignoring presentation-msg from unknown radioId 0, childId 255, sensorType 18

Hey guys, I have a strange problem using excact this scetch and the new 2.0 serial gateway scetch using FHEM.
I do get KWH values, but no Power values, and sometimes all of a sudden it gives me a power value, like twice a day.
It didn't do that before and I am a complete copy-pase N00B, so maybe somebody already sovled this issue? HELP

xypzo

Wow, thank you so much, it works like a charm!

Hi, I am trying to have a double relay switching using FHEM controller.

I took the code of scetch RelayWithButton and modified it for 2 relays.
When I switch in FHEM, it will always switch both relays at the same time.

I am a copy-pasting extreme code NOOB, so please be gentle!

Thanks in advance
