HS3 MySensors.org plugin

[ESSCHENK]

Hello,

Its me again.

I have now a second sensor for controlling a relay.
But the same thing I see the sensor in the log but its not creating.
Several times pressing the inclusing button
Restart the node but no device in Homeseer.
I hope you can find whats happening here.

Thanks Ed

Hi,

The log shows that you have added a MySensors.S_LIGHT (node id: 2, child sensor id: 1) node and the parent device is of type MySensors.S_ARDUINO_RELAY (node id: 2, child sensor id:255). Have you checked that MySensors.S_LIGHT and MySensors.S_ARDUINO_RELAY are enabled in the device type selection of the HS www?

I assume that you are using the RelayActuator sketch?

Best regards,
Henrik

Hello,

Yes everything has enabled
The Node come up after a view hours.
So the moment that I write the Mail the node come up
Mhhhh.
I use the Relay sketch, but I cannot switch the relay.
There is no on/off button.
Also the Light with the on/off will not switch
So I use 2 nodes
1 With the dht11 sketch
1 with the Relay sketch

Everything looks right at the picture. You have an S_LIGHT and a S_ARDUINO_RELAY device for node id 1.

The RelayActuator sketch creates an S_LIGHT device that can be controlled (on/off) e.g. an LED. It also creates the S_ARDUINO_RELAY device - this is a parent device similar to the S_ARDUINO_NODE with the ability to relay messages to other nodes e.g. to extend range. I admit that the RelayActuator example is a bit confusing.

Check the presentation table for S_ARDUINO_RELAY at this page:

http://www.mysensors.org/build/serial_api

Regarding the missing nodes. I have not received any other reports regarding devices not visible in HomeSeer. Let's see if we can figure out what is happening if you are still seeing the issue when adding an additional node.

I checked the log for set entries related to the S_LIGHT object. None exists in the log. Can I ask you to press the on/off button on the device and attach a corresponding log? Please choose (All/All) at the debug configuration page.

Another debugging trick is to connect to the serial port for the device hosting the S_LIGHT device. It should state "Incoming change for sensor: ..." when you try to change the state.

Best regards,
Henrik

Hello Henrik,

Iam testing some nodes.
I have add a Pir node and this one came up ride away.
So I will do some more test, and let you know how this is going
Next week.


Thanks Ed

Thank you for the feedback.

Thank you for sharing this plugin!

Do you have the ambition to make the rain sensor working in the plugin?

[hleidecker]

Hi,

Yes, the plan is to implement support for all sensors. I've been working on stability, support for the ethernet gateway (postponed), communication timeout etc. but not new sensors. I will try to make a release during next week with rain sensor support. I will keep you updated.

Are you currently using the plugin?

Best regards,
Henrik

Hi,

That is very promising! I am very happy with this plugin I've tested only one input / output.

I'm testing with HS3 for migration. I still have everything working on HS2.

Best Regards,

Hi Richard,

Nice to hear that the plugin is working for you.

I've implemented the S_RAIN sensor - not tested yet though.

An S_RAIN sensor will show up in HomeSeer as two devices:

• S_RAIN_ACC (The accumulated rain)
• S_RAIN_RATE (The rain rate)

The sensor is configurable with respect to metric(mm)/imperial(in). I will release the plugin including the S_RAIN sensor support during next week. I have a number of other issues that I need to sort out before releasing it.

Best regards,
Henrik

Hi Henrik,

Thanks for making the plugin available. I've ordered hardware to build the interface & sensors. Will the lightning sensor be supported as well?

Cheers

Hi Al,

The plugin already supports S_LIGHT, S_LIGHT_LEVEL and S_DIMMER if that is what you are looking for?

Best regards,
Henrik

Thanks very much for the quick response. I just wait until the next release.

I also bought more hardware for testing. Will take a while for it to arrive from China to Netherlands. The rain senor I have already in stock

Hi Henrik, lightning, not lighting.

Thanks

Are you running HS3 on Debian or Ubuntu, or some other fork?
