Full Version: WD not decoding data

Hi, I'm looking for thoughts on my little problem with my setup, my wireless display shows everything but the transmitted data, I set it up to use it's own TH sensor and that displays perfectly but nothing so far as the RF transmitted data. The RX unit shows the data from the TX board perfectly.
My Hardware, Wireless Display with a 20 X 4 LCD and a DHT22 sensor, I have a TFT Display coming. My TX and RX boards work perfectly as best as I can tell. My oscilloscope tests show that data is being received from the RX board on the WD boards RF receiver's Data Pin but not decoding it so I'm hoping it it's something simple that I'm overlooking.
Thanks in advance.
Terry.
Hi Terry,

Does the WD led blinks?
If not, please check if you have set the same Relay_ID (ex: Relay_ID = 0xA3Wink on both Config_RX and Config_WD. It should be different from Station_ID

Hi Werk_AG,
Thanks for the prompt reply and the first question was the clue I needed and the answer was NO, and the answer to the second question was yes both RX and WD sketches had Relay_ID = 0xA3 but to make sure I took both Nano's out and re flashed them with a carefully inspected sketch. Still no go so I carefully tested the components on the WD board and made sure the current draw was inside the limits of the 386 on the LED circuit, all good and the rest of the board tested perfrctly as well. Then I remembered that the TX module used on the RX board and the RX module used on the WD board were not a matched pair so I swapped them out for a matched pair and it now works perfectly on the test bench, so I am very pleased with the Kit. Your help was much appreciated and I had a lot of fun working it out.
Cheers, Terry.

Yeh, is good to know that you are having fun building the WeatherDuino Pro2 system. Seeing it comes alive is really a fun process.
Thanks for the good news about your WD unit, you will enjoy even more when you fit the FTF display on it.

Could you please share what TX module and RX module you used that would not communicate?
