Braedon replied to the topic XBee Networks of Mayfly Loggers – 900Mhz in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 1 years, 6 months ago
Yes, these two modules can be set up like a wire. I got a Mayfly to send information over the Pro S3B module to another module connected to a computer. I set them up on the XCTU in transparent mode, set the network IDs to be the same, and told the sender XBee what the serial address is of the receiver XBee. In transparent mode, anytime data is…[Read more]

Okay, so what do you think would be the best way to pull out the data generated from the logger object’s logData()? If it is easy to access it, then I feel it shouldn’t be too hard to just jump to a Serial1.print() statement once the logData() method is complete to send the data. Am I thinking this through correctly?

@braedon-dority I would add that the Digi range of modems is extensive- with many functions. They have good “Data Sheets” on their capabilities.
What it sounds like you are asking is can two S3Bs be setup like a “wire” – a link for two S3Bs – a peer-two-peer (P2P) link.
That is “print” an ASCII serial string to an S3B over the UART and have it…[Read more]

The radio XBee’s *cannot* be used directly with the logAndPublishData functions. That only works for XBees that have a direct internet connection.
You would have to set up your radio using the Digi software and then write your loop function, which would print your json or csv string out over the serial port for the radio to hear.

@srgdamiano would you know if the XBee Pro S3B modules can be used with the ModularSensors library? I know how to send data over them using Serial1.print(), but I would like to use these 900 MHz modules with ModularSensors if that is possible. Thanks!
marbles started the topic Email alerts rough draft. Free to use in the forum Miscellaneous 1 years, 6 months ago
Hey everyone! Here is a python program I wrote that downloads the csv file from monitor my water shed about a specific site and allows you to set up email alerts based on the readings. I will clean it up and put it on github eventually but if you want to check it out and play around it is posted below! Any suggestions or questions are…[Read more]

I just ordered a couple more sensors today and got this message from Meter “HYDROS 21s are currently on stop ship due to issues with EC readings. Our team is hoping to have this resolved soon.”

Thanks for the explanation – I do so appreciate that the code at 9600 baud works, and there is a lot of hard work gone into configuring it – as you say to work both first off and subsequent power ups.
Coming from a real time programming background I keep forgetting about the simplicity of Arduino. So I keep tripping over issues like this – it…[Read more]
Sara Damiano replied to the topic esp32-bee-wifi-bluetooth in the forum Infrastructure and Equipment 1 years, 6 months ago
The processor on the Mayfly isn’t clocked fast enough for reliable two-way communication at 115200. It’s pretty reliable at talking at that speed (ie, to the serial monitor), but when listening at that speed, it drops and garbles too many characters to be usable.
I don’t know why you had problems compiling the sketch. It compiles and runs for me…[Read more]
