  Jake Lemon replied to the topic Regular Data Outages in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 2 years, 4 months ago

  Thanks all for the feedback. I went out to the site yesterday. One of our staff had switched out a Digi modem for an EnviroDIY modem a while back and plugged the EnviroDIY modem into the Digi adapter board. I wonder if that had something to do with the issue?

  I went ahead and switched out the logger, battery and modem as I didn’t have time to…[Read more]

  Shannon – thanks for your thoughtful reply.  I’m sure I’ll be able to find the problem now.  Answering your questions:

  1. I’m not switching D22 on.
  2. Humidity is a possibility. I’ll look for corrosion and add desiccant .
  3. I’ve had ants at another location but not this one…yet.
  4. I’ll make some tests as you suggest to isolate the problem.  It mi…

  For  powering I am using the new Solar2 connector.

  It requires a very precise diameter solid core wire – and took me some time to find it as old fashioned “Bell Wire” 20AWG, which I got from local Lowes store.

  The needs to be – 20-26 AWG solid core. It also needs exactly matched wire strippers. If the wire strippers are too small a dia, its…[Read more]

  An update on measuring battery voltage. I’ve purchased a number of Mayfly1.1 for a project. And on testing one of this batch, the noise level of measuring LiPo is better – which is great.  The noise level of resistors is part of their  specification, or it might be just luck in this case.  Often a batch of noisy resistors is because the ma…[Read more]

  Hi Jake, my take is its complex to be able to decode why MMW isn’t showing data ~ it needs a system look, location aspects (solar looks excellent) ,  maintenance inspection of site,  reliability of hardware/battery/mechanics reliability of software on the Mayfly, reliability of software at MMW

  It would be useful to know your configuration i…[Read more]

  For anyone reading this in 2022, the posts above in this thread are from 2016 to 2019, and the operating voltage and other electrical specification have changed with the Mayfly boards released in the past year.  The older Mayfly v0.5 boards had completely different input voltage limits compared to the new Mayfly v1.0 and v1.1 boards.  So the a…[Read more]

  That station appears to be running the older configuration of Mayfly v0.5b and Digi LTE board (with an EnviroDIY LTEBee adapter in between the Digi board and the Mayfly), correct?  There could be several reasons why it’s behaving like that, and it’s difficult to tell unless you start swapping parts or disconnecting things one at a time to see…[Read more]

  Hi All. One of our stations is experience regular outages where data isn’t being sent to MMW. The outages seem to start mid to late morning and last for several hours. It seems like the outages correspond with the period during which battery voltage is increasing. Any ideas what could be going on here?

  Reminder: we’re limiting this forum topic to non-technical questions related to the production status and availability of EnviroDIY products like the Mayfly Data Logger or its accessories.

  Please post other Mayfly-related discussions separately on the Mayfly forum. We’ll move off-topic replies posted here to their own threads to preserve the…[Read more]
