Hi there,

When I power up my z-uno board, it looks my sketch doesn't automatically start.
The Z-Wave layer appears to boot though: operation green led lights up and one of the following messages are received from controller:

I expect my sketch to blink the user led every 10s and the consumption to be <1mA most of the time because I enabled FLiRS.
But the board consumption stays at ~60mA and nothing happen.

However, it appears the node is responsive to incoming messages, because it answers to requests.

To actually start my sketch, I have no choice to force a message to the node (eg. get parameter or get battery).

As soon as a message is received, the user led blinks and current consumption drops, showing my sketch has started as expected.

Note that the wake up service button (three times press) does nothing, neither a press on the reset button.

I attached my sketch to the thread.

Hi,
I have tried your sketch. For me it works right. You have to add some delay to see the white led is blinking. I have found some things that make work of the sketch unstable or they lead to some unpredictable behavior:
1. It's a bad idea to use Serial for debugging purposes, cause it uses full speed USB stack and needs time to boot. Use Serial0/Serial1 instead of it. In this case you need an adapter (USB2UART), but it gives you right messages and stable connection to your device. Serial is only for non sleeping devices.
2. Don't use type float. Z-Uno has no hardware float point support, that means floating point operations occupies large amount of stack and CPU time. Use fix point math instead of it(int/dword/word and right order of operations).
3. Make all handlers as short as possible. Make all complex calculations in the loop() function and save their results for further use. You used this approach for humidity/temperature values already. Use the same one for battery value.
Thank you for your sketch it quite difficult to dig in it

I have some fun )

Wow, thanks for your detailed answer Alex!

In this case you need an adapter (USB2UART), but it gives you right messages and stable connection to your device. Serial is only for non sleeping devices.

Your advice makes me ask myself the following questions:
- Do you mean that using Serial0/Serial1 is a better way to debug?
- Do you think I can ship my Serial0/Serial1 "logs" in my "production" code, and just plug my adapter I want to debug?
- Do you know if I can just connect Ground + RX/TX, leaving VCC unconnected? so that I would be able to hook the Z-Uno while it is operating using a different power source.
- Does the Z-Uno in sleep/flirs mode will prevent from connecting to Serial0/Serial1?

I'm asking all those questions because debugging/uploading sketch using USB is convenient, it allows me to iterate quickly...
Anyway, I have some spare USB2UART adapters in stock, I'll give them a try.

Ok thanks for this information. float is really a handy type, especially when dealing with some basic decimal calculus. Relying on fixed point maths will make the implementation more complexe (I'm not used to). Sad there is no note about that in the float reference documentation.

I had some fun writing it too

Actually, this is the best experience I had coding on open home automation boards (I tried MySensors, Moteino and plain nRF24). Documentation is really good quality and Z-Uno helpers are really explicit and convenient to use! Integration with Z-Way is also really great.
