Can't connect MKr1000

Community Help With My Project Helped
1

Hi,

Ive copied the example code to connect mkr1000: followed instructions exactly but my device is still showing offline.

I have double checked the device code etc. and network password etc are all correct.

Once connected im trying to add several gas sensors and soil moisture sensors etc for a garden project…

Please help!!

add this at the top of your code and share the serial monitor output #define CAYENNE_DEBUG

You mentioned your device is not getting connected. can you share the code you are using.

//#define CAYENNE_DEBUG // Uncomment to show debug messages
#define CAYENNE_PRINT Serial // Comment this out to disable prints and save space
#include <CayenneMQTTMKR1000.h>

/* WiFi network info.
char ssid[] = "";
char wifiPassword[] = "";
*/

char ssid[] = "";
char wifiPassword[] = "";

// Cayenne authentication info. This should be obtained from the Cayenne Dashboard.
char username[] = "----";
char password[] = "";
char clientID[] = "----";

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Cayenne.begin(username, password, clientID, ssid, wifiPassword);
}

void loop() {
  Cayenne.loop();
}

// Default function for sending sensor data at intervals to Cayenne.
// You can also use functions for specific channels, e.g CAYENNE_OUT(1) for sending channel 1 data.
CAYENNE_OUT_DEFAULT()

{
  // Write data to Cayenne here. This example just sends the current uptime in milliseconds on virtual channel 0.
 // Cayenne.virtualWrite(0, millis());
  // Some examples of other functions you can use to send data.
  Cayenne.celsiusWrite(1, 22.0);
  //Cayenne.luxWrite(2, 700);
  //Cayenne.virtualWrite(3, 50, TYPE_PROXIMITY, UNIT_CENTIMETER);
}

// Default function for processing actuator commands from the Cayenne Dashboard.
// You can also use functions for specific channels, e.g CAYENNE_IN(1) for channel 1 commands.
CAYENNE_IN_DEFAULT()
{
  CAYENNE_LOG("Channel %u, value %s", request.channel, getValue.asString());
  //Process message here. If there is an error set an error message using getValue.setError(), e.g getValue.setError("Error message");
}

serial monitor output?

5

ive shared the serial monitor line of code and there’s nothing showing on the serial monitor… is that normal?

6

is the baud rate set to 9600?

7

yes its set to 9600.

8

is this the code you are running? i do not see #define CAYENNE_DEBUG added in the code.

#define CAYENNE_DEBUG // Uncomment to show debug messages

Run the below code and check if you get any output in the serial monitor.

#define CAYENNE_DEBUG // Uncomment to show debug messages
#define CAYENNE_PRINT Serial // Comment this out to disable prints and save space
#include <CayenneMQTTMKR1000.h>

/* WiFi network info.
char ssid = “TANGOBAR”;
char wifiPassword = “BARTANGO2019”;
*/

char ssid = “Jay1”;
char wifiPassword = “password1”;

// Cayenne authentication info. This should be obtained from the Cayenne Dashboard.
char username = "0fdad8c0-a94c-11e9-be3b-372b0d2759ae";
char password = "640293b3e1c44acf1b959acd4fb182e41c0c41e1";
char clientID = "055bc950-a950-11e9-be3b-372b0d2759ae";

void setup() {
Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("Starting");
Cayenne.begin(username, password, clientID, ssid, wifiPassword);
Serial.println("Finished");
}

void loop() {
Cayenne.loop();
}

// Default function for sending sensor data at intervals to Cayenne.
// You can also use functions for specific channels, e.g CAYENNE_OUT(1) for sending channel 1 data.
CAYENNE_OUT_DEFAULT()

{
// Write data to Cayenne here. This example just sends the current uptime in milliseconds on virtual channel 0.

CAYENNE_IN_DEFAULT()
{

//Process message here. If there is an error set an error message using getValue.setError(), e.g getValue.setError(“Error message”);
}

hi,

now im getting the following error code?

CAYENNE_LOG(“Channel %u, value %s”, request.channel, getValue.asString());

stray ‘\342’ in program

13

delete all “ and replace them with "

14

still nothing showing on serial monitor :frowning:

15

is the code atleast uploading on your MKR1000?

16

yes its successfully uploading to mkr1000

17

Do you get an output of this at least?

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600);
Serial.println("setup");
}

void loop() {
Serial.println("loop");
delay("5000");
}
18

yes “loop” is coming up
