I wrote the same code for all of the Spokane stations. Compare the battery behavior for SpokaneR-SpokaneValley (poor) to that of SpokaneRiver-Peaceful (good), despite running the same code.

I’ll attach the code for both stations.

Great, thanks @srgdamiano! Got it working on my desktop; now will deploy into the field.

One small change: The lib_deps line I used to grab the latest ModularSensors was:

envirodiy/EnviroDIY_ModularSensors

(without a version number).

We have an EnviroDIY station that’s been running for a number of months, using a v0.5 Mayfly with Digi LTE modem, a CTD, and a Maxbotix sonar sensor. More recently, the Digi failed, and we upgraded the modem to an LTEBee and the Mayfly to a v1.1. Accordingly, I updated the code (attached) for the new modem. Since then, no data has been uploaded to…[Read more]

Thank you!

Matt Barney started the topic Sampling Feature UUID for manual data upload in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 1 years, 2 months ago

I have a colleague for whom I programmed a Mayfly without any modem-related code because this station has no cellular service nor modem, so they upload data to MMW manually from the SD card. However, the data file being written to the card does not contain the Sampling Feature UUID, so they have to add that to the data file manually before it can…[Read more]

@neilh20 The most recent one I purchased was: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/revx-systems-corp/251/1998-251-ND/10484959
However, the volunteer determined that AT&T served his site best, so I have not tested nor deployed this SIM.

Best,

Curious sensor failures and cyclical measurements

We have a station with HYDROS-21 and Turner Turbidity+ sensors. Beginning on 12/30/22 the HYDROS appears to have quit communicating, reporting only values of -9999 for all its variables. Near the same time, the Turner began reporting values with a daily cyclical pattern: higher in midday, and…[Read more]

Yes, it’s working again. Thanks.

I’m unable to download data from any sites. When I click ‘Download Sensor Data’, Chrome returns “Failed – Server problem.” When trying the same in Firefox, a new tab opens, but is empty.

Matt Barney replied to the topic Modem Alternatives (Verizon certified) in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 1 years, 7 months ago

We purchased NimbeLink’s Verizon SIMs, and we activate them and purchase service directly from NimbeLink, so never had to deal with Verizon itself.

I did contact SIMCom (maker of the modem chip on the LTEBee modems) about Verizon certification, and they said they were still awaiting it. Then they notified me once they received Verizon…[Read more]

Ah! Thank you @heather! I had already forgotten that notification after a week – yikes!

Matt Barney replied to the topic Unable to login after v0.15.0 in the forum Monitor My Watershed 1 years, 7 months ago

OK, I received the password reset email; it just took a bit longer than expected.

However, after using the reset code and entering a new password, I got the error attached below. (Page URL is: https://monitor-my-watershed.auth.us-east-2.amazoncognito.com/error)

Matt Barney started the topic Unable to login after v0.15.0 in the forum Monitor My Watershed 1 years, 7 months ago

Following the release of v0.15.0 yesterday, I can’t log in to MMW. I tried the ‘Forgot Your Password’ link, but as of now, I’ve still not received the password reset email that the app says that it sent.

Is everyone required to reset their password for the new authentication mechanism? Was there an announcement I missed?

Matt Barney replied to the topic Modem Alternatives (Verizon certified) in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 1 years, 7 months ago

We’ve had success using the EnviroDIY modem on Verizon (though I recognize that the modems are currently out of stock). See this thread for details on the SIM and APN.

Matt Barney replied to the topic 2022 EnviroDIY Hardware Status and Availability in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 1 years, 7 months ago

Any estimate on when the LTE Bee modems will be back in stock, either here on EnviroDIY or on Amazon? -Thanks.

Matt Barney replied to the topic Mayfly v1.1 technical questions forum thread in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 1 years, 9 months ago

I don’t have a ton of experience reading schematics, so I could be in error here. But FYI, it appears there may be an inconsistency in the v1.1 rev A schematic regarding the part number of the LiIon Charger chip. Please see attached screenshot. (Also understanding that these things are a moving target as chip availability changes.)

Matt Barney replied to the topic 2022 EnviroDIY Hardware Status and Availability in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 1 years, 10 months ago

FYI, just noting here that the Hardware Status and Availability page is not up to date, at least with respect to Mayfly board availability on Amazon, as they are out of stock.

@jamesbailey @neilh20

I’ve confirmed that the Verizon SIM we used was this one, from NimbeLink:

Matt Barney replied to the topic LTEBee on Verizon? in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 2 years, 2 months ago

@jamesbailey I’ll check with my colleague to find out exactly which SIM he used for the test; he’s in the field for a few days. My test code is based on https://github.com/EnviroDIY/ModularSensors/blob/master/examples/DRWI_SIM7080LTE/DRWI_SIM7080LTE.ino, and the only modem-related code change I made was to the APN.

Matt Barney replied to the topic LTEBee on Verizon? in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 2 years, 2 months ago

Hi @neilh20, I believe the SIM we used was a RevX.
