@zeke-holloman  great glad to hear it.

Which modem did you buy and where did you get it?. I thought they were in short supply,  and I’ve been keeping my eye open for them.

I’ve been using the Digi LTE XB3-C-A2-UT-001, which needs the the latest XCTU modem board to upgrade as its is a complex process.

@neilh20. Hey Neil! Sorry it’s been a while, but just a quick update. I was able to get it to work. I ended up purchasing a new XBee cellular modem (same type) alongside the Digi IoT Development Kit. Works great now!

I’m thinking the issue was either that I had set up the modem with a board that wasn’t the dedicated XCTU board (I was using the…[Read more]

Thanks, didn’t realize address had an effect on what mode it was on. not really, just not to clutter the screen up on the serial monitor

Sounds like it’s working, that’s a standard response string for that sensor.  Is there a particular reason you’re requesting the Mega to print the result in hex instead of decimal.

Ok so i changed the address from 0 to 1 for the sensor and i got this back

31 2B 32 35 32 33 2E 37 38 2B 32 34 2E 30 D A

which when i converted to ASCII i get

1+2523.78+24.0

Based on the photo, it appears the wiring is correct, assuming the orange and brown wires are inserted sufficiently deep into the header as to make a connection with the contact down inside the hole).

Your code is different from the latest a_wild_card.ino example that we include with the current SDI-12 library files.  Are you using an older…[Read more]

power to 5v and data to digital pin 11

Can you describe how you’ve wired the sensor to the Mega, or even better, can you post a photo showing the board and whatever setup you’re using to connecting the sensor to it?

No, im not getting any response from the sensor.

Are you at least getting the data in decimal format before you convert it to hex, or are you saying you aren’t getting any response from the sensor?

I’m using Release 0.30.0 for stability regression testing, its gone well, and captured a visual description of it here 0.30.0 testing

Hello @d_bozza123, the Ponsel sensor looks very interesting.

I’ve interfaced to a SDI-12 sensor Insitu LT500.

My suggestion is you think of breaking up the work into units.

That is first how to read the sensor Ponsel, and 2nd how to store it to the .csv

For my sensors, it required creating a sensor interface to read the parameters from the…[Read more]

Hi Shannon,

So the screenshot in my first post is using the ‘simple_data_logger’ code with one SDI12 sensor attached (I haven’t connected all 3 just yet), and it seems to work quite well.

The screenshot in this post is when I’m using the ‘simple_parsing’ code with no modifications.

The arduino just freezes after “213P,” and doesn’t write…[Read more]

Can you post the code for your sketch, or are you using the simple parsing example exactly as-is?
