Hello Ian
Usually, changing the #define ID 4 from 0 to 1 is the only thing needed to enable sending the solar data to the receiver, which by turn will need some settings adjusted on the config. However from your description, I think the problem is that the TX unit isn't transmitting any data at all, thus the receiver not initialize properly (no Temp/Hum and Rain data).
Without seeing your TX Config_Option.h file, I'm just trying to guess:
- Could it be that you have enabled sending the ID4 and disabled ID0 and ID3?
- Check if you are compiling the TX software using AVR Boards Manager v 1.6.21, it doesn't work properly with newer versions.
- Depending on the type of the your Temperature / Humidity sensor, the system may not work properly if ID0 is enabled and the sensor isn't connected.
Since you have your TX on the bench, there are some things you can do to verify if the TX is processing all the data.
On the Config_Options.h of the TX software start by enabling only DEBUG_ID4 and DEBUG_ID4
Compile and upload.
Open the serial monitor (19200 baud) and check the output. You should get something...
Next, enable DEBUG_ID3, and repeat the Compile and upload. Continue checking what you get on the serial monitor.
At last enable DEBUG_ID0, and again Compile and upload. If now you don't get anything on the serial monitor, then you need to connect a T/H sensor (even temporarily) to the TX unit to proceed.
