no new nodes are added to the gateway

Post by bgitmans »

I have a problem with the my sensors gateway.
I'm unable to connect any node to the gateway after I had to reinstall the complete system after a power failure that corrupted the SD card.

I reinstalled the whole system using the SD card image, and after that I restored my backup I made earlier.
But now I can see the Gateway that is connected, however no nodes are being added to the system anymore.
What could be the problem?

That solution works for devices attached to rfxcom gateways, however not for a mysensor network. Previosly i had to assign a different node id manualy otherwise the nodes would end up in a already excisting node.

the above solution is for all hardware/sensors, also mysensors

you can also try to reset your gateway, that is, writing/executing the clear eprom sketch

I've solved the problem by switching to an ethernet based gateway, now everything works fine.
And indeed use the "accept New Hardware" button.

I think mysensors nodes "remember" their node ID if you don't specify it in the sketch they get one automatically when they first connect and keep that value in eeprom. There's a clear eeprom sketch available to reset this info. I have found if I repurpose one then domoticz sees the old sensors and any new ones I have added when I look at the hardware. I usually manually delete the old unused sensors if the latest "thing" doesn't present them.
