RFLink = MySensors gateway ?

Post by knop »

Hi
I have RFlink with fw R47, it is said in mysensors wiki page that we need MySensors gateway (serial or ethernet or mtt..) to detect MySensors node.
In my rflink config (checked with rflinkloader.exe), i've mysensors=on, but impossible to detect mysensors node in domoticz :-(
Do I need mysensors gateway additionnaly to rflink ?
If not what is missing?
Thanks for your help.

Hi,

So it seems that if we want to work with his own sensors (sensors based on arduino + sketch build with mysensors ) we need gateway (serial, ethernet, mtt).
So I would like to know what is the meaning of MySensors option "setMysensors=ON" in RFLink ? (because RFLink it is not Mysensors GW)

(My RFLink setup is Firmware R47 and setRF433=ON;setNodoNRF=OFF;setMilight=OFF;setLivingColors=OFF;setAnsluta=OFF;setGPIO=OFF;setBLE=OFF;setMysensors=ON;)

Thanks for clarification.

well... I'm not completely clear with your question... but... you can have a better look to the RFLink compatibility and ask the author about your setup

RFLink can receive mysensors devices. However, it is not a full gateway.
There are also no plans to make it a full gatgeway either.
This is done to accomodate users who have some mysensors devices, like some temperature sensors or so but do not need a full mysensors network or gateway.
Note that in order to receive mysensors devices without a gateway you might have to make a modification to the mysensor device so that it does not do a timeout..

Thanks Stuntteam for clarification.
Concerning modification to do in mysensor device to ignore timeout. Do you have an example of sketch ?

Thanks for your help
