A list of nodes
| Name | Description | Usage | Realization status | Quality |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Back Door Sensor | A small module powered by a coin cell to detect if the back door is open. | Backdoor | Working | Works good. |
| Blinds Module | A module to open or close the blinds of a window. | Living | Working | Works good, and has been improved with custom PCB, added protection circuit on the relay contacts. |
| CO2 Node T6703-5K | A module that measure the CO2 ppm with a T6703-5K unit. | Living | Working | The prototype works good. It took a few days before the unit was calibrated correctly. Extended with a hardware watchdog which fixes sporadic crashes. |
| Coin Cell Node | A coin cell powered Arduino Pro Mini sensor to detect an open window (or door) and measure temperature and humidity. | Anywhere | Working | Works good. |
| Coin Cell Stable Node | The Stable Node used with a coin Cell and a reed contact to detect the state of a switch (door, window, button) | Backdoor | Working, Destroyed | I accidently reversed power supply, that destroyed it. |
| Controllino Domotica | Controllino Domotica MySensors Gateway with inputs and outputs | Hidden | Working | The relay contacts sometimes stick together when switching on/off a few times after each other. This is treated with more delay in the software and NTC Thermistor Resistor 47D-15. |
| Curtain Module | A module to open or close the curtains of a window. | Living | Planned | Remains planned since I succeeded to send RF codes another way. |
| DeltaTempFanController | A module to control a fan based on temperature difference. | TV Cabinet | Working, Retired | The temperature measurement is perfect, but the fan PWM not: makes noise and stops at some speeds – improvement needed. The effect isalso minimal, and the heat producing amplifier is replaced by a more ecological one. |
| Domoticz on Raspberry Pi | The controller is a Raspberry Pi that connects to the gateway with a USB port and runs Domoticz | Study | Working | |
| Domoticz on Synology NAS | Domoticz on Synology NAS | Living | Working, Retired | There are no up-to-date versions available on the NAS, and it is hard to add Python files etc. |
| Door Window Button Sensor | A cheap battery powered sensor to detect an open window/door or switch | Anywhere | Working, Retired | It works, but is not made in reliable way. Replaced by an other sensor. |
| EnergyMonitor | Measure mains energy - current, voltage, power | Working | It works quite well, measurements maybe not so accurate. | |
| Fan Module | Control a bathroom fan remotely, with button. | Bathroom | Working | Works good, is also repeater. Sometimes there is no connection with the gateway, and then there is no reaction on pressing the button. Might be improved to react locally. Sometimes, after a few weeks, it behaves strange. A hard reset always solves that problem. |
| Gateway Ethernet W5100 | The gateway between the NRF24L01+ network and the Controller. Used medium: Ethernet | Living | Working | Working good. Already for years. |
| Gateway MQTT Client | The gateway between the NRF24L01+ network and the Controller. Used medium: MQTT (via Ethernet) | Living | Planned | I experimented once with it, but do not need it. |
| Gateway NodeMCU ESP8266 | MySensors Gateway build with NodeMCU ESP8266 | Upstairs | Working, Retired | Used as an extra MySensors gateway on a different radio channel. Works fine, but not used anymore. |
| House Web Server | A web server for house documentation - if the house is sold, then this webserver contains the documentation that the new owners need to receive. | Hall | Working, Retired | Works fine, but if I keep it switched on, nobody will be using it. The limitations to the tree of files is quite severe – not very usefull. |
| LED strip and 6 spots | A LED strip and 6 spots are controlled by an 8 relay board with an Arduino Nano | Study | Working | Works very well, no crashes. |
| Light Relay with Arduino Nano | A LED light switching relay build with an Arduino Nano | Study | Working, Retired | Works fine, but soon replaced by multiple lights and a LED strip |
| Light Sensor | A small light sensor supplied by a coin cell, based on a MAX44009 | Failed | Did not get this working (bad Arduino?) | |
| Light Sensor Uno | A light sensor supplied by mains based on a BH1750 | Bedroom | Working | Works well, but it needs a better location. |
| RadioWifi | Radio Wifi NodeMCU ESP8266 with VS1053B Audio Codec | Living | Retired | Works fine, sometimes slight interruptions, but still enjoyable. More recently, there is too much cracking to enjoy. |
| RadioWifi2 | Radio Wifi ESP32 with VS1053B Audio Codec | Living | Working | Works soso, sound is good. Song title in MySensors is cut off. Webpage with song title does not auto-refresh. |
| RepeaterNanoEbyte | A MySensors Repeater made with a 5V Arduino Nano and an Ebyte radio module | Attic | Working | Works very good, the communication range is much better. How to see how many messages relayed? |
| RepeaterRFNanoTenstar | A MySensors Repeater made with an RepeaterRFNanoTenstar | Failed | The Tenstar modules do not respond – is there even a working bootloader inside? | |
| RepeaterProMini | A MySensors Repeater made with an Arduino Pro Mini 5V | Working, Retired | ||
| RepeaterProMiniWithSi7021 | A MySensors Repeater made with an Arduino Pro Mini 5V and a Si7021 | House | Working | It works good as a repeater – but it needs a strategic location in the house. |
| Printer Module | Control the printer remotely. At power up, the printer draws so much current, that the SSR did not survive. | Living | Testing; Destroyed | At power up, the printer draws so much current, that the SSR did not survive. |
| SceneControllerLcdTouch | Use the OpenSmart TFT IL9320 Display 2.8 inch with touch function as a scene controller | Living | Planned | Not yet. |
| Gateway Serial | The gateway between the NRF24L01+ network and the Controller. Used medium: the serial bus (USB) | Living | Working, Retired | Initially I tried this, but switched to a Ethernet gateway when switching to the NAS Domoticz. |
| Temperature Humidity Sensor | A sensor for temperature and humidity. | Outside | Working, Destroyed | It worked, but fell and broke. |
| Window Open Sensor | A battery powered sensor to detect an open window (or door). | Bathroom, Living, Veranda | Working | Have one of these at most windows in the house. Expensive (due to the Sensebender) but nice. The reed contacts are too difficult to work with reliably, hence replaced with Hall-sensors, |
