You plug Arduino Mega (which on top has RFLink connected) to Raspberry Pi with USB cable

I have a last question please...
If I put a RFLink on an arduino mega, then I still can put there a personalized programs ?
What I need is another arduino mega that must make some personalized monitoring and must send
the data to the raspberry/RFLink ...is this possible ?
Thanks again
Denis

I really don't understand what you are trying to accomplish.

I make an example ...will be better
First of all I will connect an arduino(1) with RFLink firmware to the raspberry.
Then I will need another arduino(2)... one that I will use with some personalized programs in order to monitor my garden.
The arduino(1) must communicate with arduin(2).
So I will put also an RFLink on the arduino(2) in order to have RF interface.
On the arduino(2) I will update the RFLink firmware also ...
So if the arduino(2) have the RFLink on it... I can still use it with my personalized program on it ?
What I mean is... if I have the RFLink firmware on the chip... I can put other thinks on that chip ?
Thanks again
p.s. I just buy 2 X kits of this

No you can't. Even if you are able to put your SW on it, with every update of the RFLink SW you loose your's. If i'm correct you flash the Arduino with a single HEX file.

I think you want to make your own sensor based on an arduino or similar.. and then transmit values like a counter etc. to rflink..
This is possible!
We can advise you some software for the sensor side..
