@jkandasa okay

@skywatch
Thanks

I am trying to understand the logic of the program. But what I expect is the following:

When I press the upload firmware I see a list where I can choose the firmware from and upload it. But that seems not the case after trail and error. So let me explain what I think it works.

When I have a new node, this will publish an auto node ID. Then I cannot upload new firmware because if I do this the default firmware will be loaded ? I am not sure if that is even possible with manually assigned numberings of nodes.
So the next step is that I press edit on the new node and assign the firmware to it (that I added to utilities\firmware tab) and save this and the press the above button upload firmware? This seems to work but I am not sure if this is the correct process as I find this not very logical.

When I would like to update a node, I add the software again to the utilities\firmware tab, edit the specific node and assign this new software and do the upload firmware again? Correct?

The part where it did goes wrong is that I put the default switch on for firmware as I saw errors in the logging about this. Then this will upload software (which is already on another node) to the new node and you get duplicated node numbers.

So preferable, I would like to see. Add also the possibility that you have a split menu. Upload Assigned/default firmware or upload firmware where you get a popup and select the one you would like to upload to your node.

Secondly, I had a problem with my boot software. The first time it advertises itself and after the upload of the new firmware, I could never upload new firmware again. I have downloaded the MySensors Bootloader and recompiled it for my hardware (slim node atMega328p 8MHz) and this bootloader seems to work okay

I am very new to this. Sorry for stupid questions.

@jkandasa I have still issues with OTA. It is uploading spontaneously to a wrong node? Anyone here has maybe a bootfile for 8MHZ node which should work correctly? (Also serial works?) and is there a clear description of how it should work. I have added the firmware but if I select the node and upload firmware I cannot select the firmware version only with the edit mode.

Thanks for any help.

OK, thanks. Will try this.

Hi All,

I am new to mycontroller.org and I hope you guys could help me get started.

I am running mycontroller on Windows. But I have some problem.

When I connect the gateway to my broker running on PI and do a discover I see this:

mysensors-in/NODE_BC/SENSOR_BC/C_INTERNAL/I_DISCOVER/0 (null)

This seems faulty as I expect something like:
mysensors-in/255/255/3/0/20 or so...

Also the nodes are not discovered.

What do I wrong?

Regards,

Marcel
