Concentrator reset pin on RAK v1.5 different than variant file, causing packet-forwarder crashes #21

Open danstruble opened 1 year ago

danstruble commented 1 year ago

I encountered an issue with an older RAK v1.5 where the concentrator reset pin was 17 instead of 25, which is the default specified in the variant file for COMP-RAKHM. This was causing an endless loop of packet-forwarder crashes.

Using a device variable "CONCENTRATOR_RESET_PIN_OVERRIDE" set to 17 resolved this issue. Wanted to get this out there for any others that might have older RAK v1.5 units that experience the same issue. No issues on my RAK v2s

what concentrator is used on this? As far as the rak v1.5s and rak v2s we have here, they seem to all have the same reset pin. Have never seen one with a different pin.

Can you show a picture of the outside and inside of all the units?

Exohayvan commented 6 days ago

had the same issue, I'm pretty sure it's actually a v1.1 RAK (as I've been told but never looked into it) it uses pin 17 instead of the default 25.

CONCENTRATOR_RESET_PIN_OVERRIDE being set to the value of 17 fixed this for me as well. (Been trying to figure it out, but went to open an issue and my solution was in the top of an already open issue xD)
