Hello
However, nothing happens when i press on the button… for the 3 of them…
can you help me please ?
this is my sketch based upon the “example” sketch
#include <TheThingsNode.h>

const char *appKey = "****";

#define debugSerial Serial
// Replace REPLACE_ME with TTN_FP_EU868 or TTN_FP_US915
#define freqPlan TTN_FP_EU868
TheThingsNetwork ttn(loraSerial, debugSerial, freqPlan);
TheThingsNode *node;
#define PORT_SETUP 1
#define PORT_INTERVAL 2
#define PORT_MOTION 3
#define PORT_BUTTON 4
/*
Decoder payload function
------------------------
function Decoder(bytes, port) {
var decoded = {};
var events = {
1: 'setup',
2: 'interval',
3: 'motion',
4: 'button'
};
decoded.event = events[port];
decoded.battery = (bytes[0] << 8) + bytes[1];
decoded.light = (bytes[2] << 8) + bytes[3];
if (bytes[4] & 0x80)
decoded.temperature = ((0xffff << 16) + (bytes[4] << 8) + bytes[5]) / 100;
else
decoded.temperature = ((bytes[4] << 8) + bytes[5]) / 100;
return decoded;

ysimonx:
i see traffic data for event “motion” or “interval”
However, nothing happens when i press on the button… for the 3 of them…
Are you sure you’re not triggering motion just before you’re pressing the button?
(Aside, please see How do I format my forum post? [HowTo] )

Thank you
but, even after a while, without moving any sensor, nothing happens when press a button and release it, on 3 of them…
To be very precise: with your code nothing will happen on button press , but only on its release .
I assume you only changed the appEUI and appKey? (It looks good, but I’ve not compared line-by-line.)
You could comment/remove the following just to be sure:
The sketch I use looks the same, but it does not have any node->onButtonPress(onButtonPress) defined.

ok, i will give it a try , thank you
Even more: it also does not have node->configButton(true) (but surely acts on the button release). (Also, it does not send any acceleration details.)

Hi Arjan
a) even with the original example sketch, nothing happens with the button
b) when i shake the NODE, keeping the button pressed, the status shows
as it occurs on 3 different NODES, i think this is a problem with software (i don’t know which one)
example with “interval” event

Well, keeping the button pressed won’t generate button events, I assume. The device will/should act on changes, and will remember its state to return when requested at a later time. But of course, it should have handled and remembered the button press (unless you already had it pressed while booting the device).
It seems GitHub - TheThingsNetwork/arduino-node-lib: Arduino Library for The Things Node has not changed since February. Can you tell which version you’re using? (I was using 2.0.8 it seems.)

I tried with both
i also tried with
(Sorry, just bricked my device by selecting the wrong Arduino board. Oh well. I know how to fix that , but that’s not going to happen right now. Success!)

Hi @FloatingOne
I did not find one solution. Not sure if it is hardware ou firmware … but i never heard about someone who managed to use it…
