I setup the MQTT Gateway with the Wifi and MQTT Broker.
I have also used a USB Modem to check that the sensor is transmitting data.
The MQTT Gateway is showing light white, then yellow, then blinking white,
I am using the mosquito MQTT broker and it does not have user and password. Is it a problem?
I have use MQTT.fx to validate that the MQTT broker can recieved data.
Just realised that the default is to use static IP. I switch the MQTT to use dhcp, how it is showing solid green light.
But it is still not sending any data to the MQTT Broker.
Hi,
Do you have any sensors powered up? Keep in mind our battery powered sensors ship turned off so you have to open them and either move a jumper inside or flip a switch on.
The problem is caused by MQTT gateway requires the MQTT broker with user name and password. I have to switched to another MQTT broker for it to work.
Hi,
No, The MQTT Gateway does not require a broker that requires a username and password. Enter the text:
blank
For the username on The MQTT Gateway config interface and make sure the TLS setting is off. This will configure the gateway to connect to the broker while only submitting the Client ID on the connection.
Hi,
I am seeing that my WiFi MQTT Temperature/Humidity Sensor is connected to a HiveMQ broker (via its dashboard), but the sensor LED is flashing red, and I am seeing only Ping Request & Response messages in Wireshark. I have not configured authentication in the broker and have entered “blank” for the username in the sensors configuration webpage.
I attempted an OTA firmware and filesystem update, one of which jostled it to connect and spit out a single message before bricking? I now only see a faint red led flashing and do not see it in AP mode and cannot get it into config mode either. What are my options to re-attempt the firmware update? What do I need for usb connectivity?
Is the Red LED flashing in a sequence? This could indicate the type of issue.
Can you confirm this is the device you are working with?
Thank you,
Travis
Yes, that is the device and sensor that I have. Prior to attempting the OTA update, I was observing a bright red two-flash repeating sequence (which started after white flashes and wifi connection). Now, I see only a steady, faint, repeating single red flash.
Hi @chandc
A two flash red code indicates the processor is not able to communicate with the temperature probe. Did you have the temperature/humidity probe connected to the box? If not that is the code you will see. If you did have it connected then it will need to be returned for repair. You can complete an RMA here:
Thank you,
Travis
Sounds good Travis. Will do. Fortunately, I have another unit here. Thank you for the assistance.
