  Braedon replied to the topic Mayfly v1.1 technical questions forum thread in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 1 years, 7 months ago

  Is the 3.3 V for the 10-bit ADC on the Mayfly a value that is fixed, or can it be changed? I don’t know if this is related or not, but does the ADC voltage come from the default analog reference, or is it completely different? Could the analog reference voltage be lowered, using the analogReference() function, giving us a higher resolution as a…[Read more]

  LTEbees should be back in stock later this week in the EnviroDIY shop and in a week or two on Amazon.  The big order we placed from our manufacturer back in March had some production delays but is supposed to be delivered this week.  The RS485 adapter is still not ready for release, the original design relied on the 12v boost circuitry of the M…[Read more]

  I’m wondering when the LTE Bee modules and RS-485 adapters will be in stock. Thanks!

  Hey thanks for the overview. Welcome to the art of jumping in – and learning by doing (my philosophy though I’m an EE graduate) – though its beneficial to bring an engineering basis to analyzing the components, and then plug the components together.  The engineering basis can be thought of as a technical story – though for EE graduates we talk…[Read more]

  I am very new to the world of electronics and circuit boards. I am a graduate student of civil engineering looking to deploy snow sensing stations using the Mayfly. They will be satellite stations around an existing piece of infrastructure that already has radio communication set up with Campbell Scientific data loggers. I don’t think the network…[Read more]

  Okay, so this is what I have now for my sender code:

  #include <Wire.h>
  #include "Sodaq_DS3231.h"
  
  void setup() 
  {
    pinMode(18, OUTPUT);
    digitalWrite(18, HIGH);
    Serial1.begin(9600);
    Wire.begin();
    rtc.begin();
    delay(3000);
  }
  
  void loop() 
  {
    digitalWrite(8, HIGH);
    rtc.convertTemperature();
    
    Serial1.print(rtc.getTemperature());…

  The Bee socket of the Mayfly board isn’t powered continuously by default, so in your code examples above, it appears that you’re not turning them on.  If you study the schematic for whichever hardware version of the Mayfly you have, you’ll see that you either have to activate the power to the bee socket’s regulator by setting Mayfly pin D18 high…[Read more]

  Gosh Brandon, I successfully used the 900Mhz modules about 15years ago with the TinyOS framework.

  Seems you are thinking of using it in a Peer-2-peer arrangement, possibly in a mesh configuration. A lot of options.

  I wonder what your back ground is  – cause its sort of like jumping into the deep end, and you may wanna flesh out your plan – what…[Read more]

  Hello, I am new to using Mayflies and XBee modules, so I’m hoping I can get some help here since the modules I’m planning on using are the 900 MHz XBee Pro S3B. Programming the modules correctly in the XTCU is something I don’t entirely grasp, but for the moment I will focus on programming the Mayfly.

  Right now I am just trying to get two…[Read more]
