I think the first thing to check is that you are using the latest EtherShield library: https://github.com/thiseldo/EtherShield

The next thing to check is that your have downloaded both files from: https://github.com/glynhudson/NanodeRF/tree/master/nanodeRF_2ct and have both of them in the same directory and that the directory is called nanodeRF_2CT. 

Let me know if this doesnt fix the problem.

What version orf Arduino IDE ar you using?  

 hello glyn.

it seems to be a problem in the some of the lines in the EtherShieldsimpleClient.pde 

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Send
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

void ethernet_send(char * apiurl,char * host,char * apikey,char * putget,char * string)
{
//es.ES_client_browse_url(PSTR("/api/22274.csv"),"20.0,30.0", domainname, &browserresult_callback);
es.ES_client_http_post(PSTR(""),PSTR("www.dev.openenergymonitor.org"),NULL,PSTR("GET "),NULL, &browserresult_callback);
}

void ethernet_send_url(char * hoststr, char * urlbuf,char * urlbuf_varpart)
{
data_recieved = 0;
es.ES_client_browse_url(urlbuf,urlbuf_varpart,hoststr,&browserresult_callback);
}

 If i change this lines with // before line   es.ES_client_browse_url(urlbuf,urlbuf_varpart,hoststr,&browserresult_callback);
i can compile and upload it to the nanode.

I can after uploaded sketch see that the red led is blinking evry 10sec. but i can not get the nanode to communicate with the emoncms. i get power etc in the serial monitor. but im still a newbee and litle bad in debuging.

Glyn can you explaine me what this code do?

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// Send
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

void ethernet_send(char * apiurl,char * host,char * apikey,char * putget,char * string)
{
//es.ES_client_browse_url(PSTR("/api/22274.csv"),"20.0,30.0", domainname, &browserresult_callback);
es.ES_client_http_post(PSTR(""),PSTR("www.dev.openenergymonitor.org"),NULL,PSTR("GET "),NULL, &browserresult_callback);
}

void ethernet_send_url(char * hoststr, char * urlbuf,char * urlbuf_varpart)
{
data_recieved = 0;
//es.ES_client_browse_url(urlbuf,urlbuf_varpart,hoststr,&browserresult_callback);
}
 

The error i get is for this code "  es.ES_client_browse_url(urlbuf,urlbuf_varpart,hoststr,&browserresult_callback); "

and this is the error message
nanodeRF_2ct.cpp: In function 'void ethernet_send_url(char*, char*, char*)':
EtherShieldsimpleClient:357: error: invalid conversion from 'void (*)(uint8_t, uint16_t)' to 'void (*)(uint8_t, uint16_t, uint16_t)'
EtherShieldsimpleClient:357: error: initializing argument 4 of 'void EtherShield::ES_client_browse_url(prog_char*, char*, prog_char*, void (*)(uint8_t, uint16_t, uint16_t))'
 

i have ports, rf12 and EtherSheild in libaries.
 

if i try other sketch for nanode from other projects it goes on it without any problem and working

I hope someone can give some tips/hints for how to get this to work. becouse this oem is a great peace of work.

 oki. i found out what the problem was. the code on github for nanoderf did not work with the newest version of EtherSheild lib. so i got help on irc #nanode and got an older version of EtherShield and compile was ok.

but when i debug in arduino serial monitor i get this:

Emonbase:NanodeRF ctonly

but still my emoncms cant recive any info from emonbase/emontx.

Anyone has any tips on how to debug this og tell me whats wrong.

is there any logs in emoncms that can be checked?

Obviously thiseldo has altered his Ethershield-library and now it is incompatible to the emonbase code examples.

I downloaded the newest library from github:

but as roedfjel mentioned, I experience that error:

NanodeRF_2ct.cpp: In function 'void ethernet_send_url(char*, char*, char*)':
EtherShieldsimpleClient:357: error: invalid conversion from 'void (*)(uint8_t, uint16_t)' to 'void (*)(uint8_t, uint16_t, uint16_t)'
EtherShieldsimpleClient:357: error: initializing argument 4 of 'void EtherShield::ES_client_browse_url(prog_char*, char*, prog_char*, void (*)(uint8_t, uint16_t, uint16_t))'

Whilst searching I read the following on the github repository history:

https://github.com/thiseldo/EtherShield/commit/85cddf86a5364f1e32256d22f34bc6e1857465c3

might this be the "root of evil" ?

;)

Robert

can you post a link to the older ethershield library that works?

Hello, all,

Thanks for flagging this up. It seems the the latest version of the etherShield library does not work with our current emonBase code. I will look into the problem (I think it's to do with compatibility between Arduino 1.0 Beta and Arduino 22), in the meantime follow the link below to download e version of the EtherShield library that I know works with the emonBase code

Thank you for your patience.

Glyn. 

Hey Glyn,

Thanks for the fast answer!

hehe   ;)
