RE: How to install Mycontroller on the RaspberryPI (or any other linux/UNIX system)
The links in this getting started guide are quite old and should be updated. Or maybe better: Link to the download page instead: https://mycontroller.org/#/downloads
I ran
1.0.0.Final
for some days now and wasn't aware that this is an old release.

RE: Send battery level to influxdb?
@Tag said in Send battery level to influxdb?:
I had the same question, and solved it by measuring the voltage using the AD converter, store it in a variable and have the node send it to mycontroller. The type I used is multimeter. The advantage of this solution is that you can graph it on the dashboards.
Thanks for this solution, but wouldn't it be nicer to simply forward the internal
I_BATTERY_LEVEL
message to influxdb, so that we don't have to configure another message for every node? -
Send battery level to influxdb?
Hi! Is it possible to send the battery level of a sensor to influxdb? In the resources data settings I only see the sensor values, not the battery level.

RE: Node name gets reset everytime I restart the node
Ok. I now upgraded to MyController
1.3.0.Final
. There I executed the actionsErase configuration
andReboot
for the sensor node but that did not help.I don't know if these actions really worked, but at least they didn't change anything.
I'll try your suggestion with the erase sketch another day.
But thanks for now for your quick reply!

RE: Node name gets reset everytime I restart the node
Aaah! Thanks! I wasn't aware of that. I just followed this getting started guide, and there is a link to the
1.0.0.Final
. Would be better to have a link to the download page there. -
RE: Override node names
I opened up a new thread for my issues...
https://forum.mycontroller.org/topic/370/node-name-gets-reset-everytime-i-restart-the-node -
Node name gets reset everytime I restart the node
I have an (almost fresh) installation of MyController
1.0.0.Final
and an Arduino Nano node running the following piece of code: https://github.com/benhubert/mysensors-tempsensor-hyt221When I power off the node and power it on again, MyController finds it and continues collecting data, but the node name is being reset every time.
I guess this is not the intended behavior, right?
Is this an issue of MyController? Or is it an issue of the node itself? Where is the name stored? I guess the default comes from my code, but do I have to change the code for every sensor?
Would be great if someone could help me understanding this.

RE: Override node names
Hi! I have the same issue here. Should the sensor name stay the same even after the reboot of a sensor?
How does this work? Where is this information stored? How does mycontroller recognize a sensor and detect that it already knows it? Does the sensor have some unique key? Is the name stored on the sensor itself? Is there a unique key that gets written to the Arduino (I don't know if this would be possible)? Where should I search for the cause of this issue?
