RepeaterProMini

Principles

• Build a MySensors repeater with the material in stock, to test if it would solve the problems with the sensors in the back of the house.

The result

Used Components

• NRF24L01+
• AdapterBoardForNRF24L01
• ArduinoProMini5V

Wiring

MISO = M1, MOSI = M0

Programming

• Use Platformio, see platformio.ini file.
• Board: Arduino Pro or Pro Mini
• Processor: ATmega328P (5V, 16MHz)
• Serial monitor: 19200 Baud

Code at: RepeaterProMini.ino
