Blynk, Arduino and 433 MHz RF

[nervimarco]

Hello everyone, sorry for my english …

Please can someone help me with Blynk, Arduino Mega and 433 MHz transmitter?

I would like to use Arduino Mega with transmitter to send the codes in RF 433 Mhz and some Arduino Nano with 433 MHz RF receiver that, according to the code received, turn on and off the relays …

Can someone help me with Blynk?

Thanks so much.

Can someone help me with Blynk?

you need to be a bit more specific than that:

• What do you have already coded (pls share)?
• With what do you exactly need help?
• What is the blynk part of your project?

[nervimarco]

Thanks for your interest…

I can not create the part that sends the codes … for example:

If I send the code 1755 it turns on the light of the room 1

if I send the code 1756 it turns off the light of the room 1

if I send the code 1888 the boiler is turned on

if I send the code 1889 the boiler is turned off …

thank you.

Thanks Alexis, great …

Now I have two arduino nano, the first controls the light of camera 1 and the second commands the caladia, both have a 433 MHz RF receiver, according to the code launched by the transmitter they must be able to reset the digital pin 2 or 3 … .

Thank you

[nervimarco]

thank you very much for the help you gave me …

But how do I make Arduino and Blynk understand that the 433MHz RF is connected to the digital 4 pin?

Thank you

hello !
this is the code

[nervimarco]

Thanks, it gives me error "exit status 1 ‘mySwitch’ does not name a type

What does it mean?

[Blynk_Coeur]

don’t forget to declare that

#include <RCSwitch.h>
RCSwitch mySwitch = RCSwitch();

[nervimarco]

@Blynk_Coeur

don’t forget to declare that

I declared it
but still gives me the error …

Help me, please …

[Blynk_Coeur]

please post your entire code, I will take a look.
don’t forget to format it.

[Blynk_Coeur]

@nervimarco

I declared it

‘RCSwitch’ does not name a type
RCSwitch mySwitch = RCSwitch();
^
error: ‘mySwitch’ was not declared in this scope

this is the issue when I comment :

 //#include <RCSwitch.h>

so, you have not the RCSwitch.h library , or you made a mistake naming your lib

#include <SPI.h>
#include <Ethernet.h>
#include <BlynkSimpleEthernet.h>

@nervimarco

I compiled your code and it works fine
so you probably have an issue with one of the libraries !

can you send me error list?

[nervimarco]

Thank you so much for your support …

the error comes out when I insert the line
“mySwitch.enableTransmit (4);”

gives me error “exit status 1 ‘mySwitch’ does not name a type”

I do not understand.

Thank you

[Blynk_Coeur]

@nervimarco

“mySwitch.enableTransmit (4);”

ah ah
you put an extra space !
try enableTransmit(4);

[nervimarco]

@Blynk_Coeur

ah ah

you put an extra space !

try enableTransmit(4);

thanks, I’ve already tried …
nothing changes, always a mistake …

Help…

[Blynk_Coeur]

@nervimarco

always a mistake

are you sure you put mySwitch.enableTransmit(4); at the right place?
it must be into the void setup , like this

void setup()
{
  // Debug console
  Serial.begin(9600);
  mySwitch.enableTransmit(4); //<<<<<<<<<<<<<--------------------
  pinMode(SDCARD_CS, OUTPUT);
  digitalWrite(SDCARD_CS, HIGH); // Deselect the SD card
