Hi Nawab,
There are no upgrades for the gateway / nodes since the last version. (2.2 for the gateway)
People have adapted the I/O portion of the nodes to their needs, but the inner working of gateway/node have not been changed.
My gateway has been working for several months now, no need to change ;-)

Likewise, my CompuTourist based gateway has been reliable for a couple months. The nodes especially based on his DHT node have also been reliable. I did use the Buono Uno arduino boards in 3.3v mode instead of Pro Minis. As CompuTourist indicated, I have adapted some other functions on the nodes & OpenHAB You can see progressively more details about my home automation network at homeautomation.proboards.com/thread/62/success-home-automation-arduinos-rfm69s |

I have incorporated code for a PIR and DS18 temp sensors, and integrated sleep mode. Sleep mode is based on the watchdog timer functionality. I still need to do real life tests with my node to see what the energy consumption is, but for your entertainment hereby attached! This code is fully integrated with the 2.1 computourist node code btw... happy coding! edit: make sure to supply enough voltage otherwise the PIR becomes erratic... for your reference; reporting back on the low energy node sample I posted above. My PIR ran for 5 months on 3xAA batteries in a relatively frequently visited room. Could be better, but maneagable... |

Thanks, gandalph, for this reminder. It was very timely & helpful for me. I just started a new thread, Battery-sipping DHT Node (a la Computourist) to collect our conversations about battery nodes & perhaps add some progress. Thanks for your contributions. |

Could someone post a version of their working ethernet library file please?
Thanks

Here's the w5100 library files I'm currently using, in case those might help. w5100.h (14.82 KB) w5100.cpp (4.99 KB) |

Thanks papa. Looks like its alive so I'll let it run and see what happens. I started on an old computer and for some reason I decided to update to Arduino 1.6.7. Thank goodness I still had 1.5.8 on my main machine because everything was blowing up. Looks like a better library management system but 1.6.7 doesn't play well with the 2.3 gateway yet.

Yes, the more recent IDE has some interesting features popping up: One must now define subroutines (or at least give their first line) before they are called. So having functions at the end of computourist end node sketch throws compile errors. See the first fouir posts in this thread. Also the newer IDE pops up saying one's libraries are outdated, but I'm not sure that it is recommending good replacements. |
