My Sensors Repeater Node

hi,

just built a repeater node. my first question is -> do i need to register a repeater node in easy iot?
within the repater node i added a DOOR node, according to a post in the forum.
the repeater was registered as DOOR sensor successfully.
when i try a battery driven test actuator (LED) in a part of my flat where it is able to be switched on and of, but the state is not read back sometimes, the repeater does not make it better :S
what am i doing wrong ? :unsure:

thanks for every help or tip in advance!!! B)

Do you try to debug? It seems that repeater node is not between your final node and server.

How can i set the repeater between node and server? I did not find any tutorial which explains how to use a repeater node ;(
Do you have a tutorial ;)

No I don't have tutorial, but I know from source code. When you add new node it will always try to find server or node which is closest to server. If new node is in server range it will connect to server and not to repeater node.

Hi,

It's possible to force which parent node is to be used by a sensor node. Have a look at

www.mysensors.org/download/sensor_api_14

By using this you should be able to force your sensor node to use the repeater node.
