Text: craag All stuff that was way over my head though adamgreig haha nice dbrooke I recently added some timeouts to the uploading from my car gateway in case loss of 3G connectivity was the cause of it occasionally wed ging dbrooke It;s on bench test at the moment so it will be interesting to see how the server downtime affects it dbrooke jonsowman: the commercial wireless current clamp sensors I have use batteries (2 x D cell) so I assume it's the usual method Oddstr13 is there a list over data types suggested added to the protocol? Oddstr13 I'd suggest adding G for Gateway, as a flagg simmilar to Z Oddstr13 alternatively, deprecate Z in favor for M, where 0=zombie, 1=repeating, 2=gateway Oddstr13 M for Mode Oddstr13 also, F for Frequency, allowing you to specify a list of frequencies the node is operating at (given in kHz? alternativly allow e notati on, 868.5e6) jonsowman thanks dbrooke, was just wondering :) mfa298 I'd totally forgotten about the server downtime, bot restarted craag A well-planned mode flag sounds good. craag Frequency flag would also really need a mode specified to be useful without prior information craag So I think that's obscure enough to just use the : field. mfa298 modes for a mode flag would probably make sense to have bit values, a node could be a repeater and gateway mfa298 maybe also identify other features (aprs, gsm) or speacialist node type (bouy, balloon) mfa298 although getting that in 8 bits might be hard, it might need to be 16 bits. dbrooke for readability, at the expense of message length, ASCII might be better, e.g. a combined repeater and gateway could use "Mrg" dbrooke I didn't get to observe my car gateway's behaviour in the absence of the server as there were several power cuts on Friday evening so I' ll have to actually test it Oddstr13 craag: yea, I couldn't think of a good way to encode that tho Oddstr13 mfa298: wouldn't really be 8 bits tho, as it would be a ascii encoded number mfa298 depends how good you are converting base10 to base2 (possibly via base16) Oddstr13 oh, I was refering to the fact that it wouldn't be restricted to 8 bits, as it would be a string 0-9, possibly a-z Oddstr13 can't contain A-Z or {} Oddstr13 whoops, better add a pull-up to D10/NSS :P jonsowman :) Oddstr13 22k pull-up, and avrdude stopped complaining about wrong processor, hehe craag morning all ibanezmatt13 morning</p> <input type='hidden' name='csrfmiddlewaretoken' value='' id='form_csrf' /> <input type="submit" /> </form> <script>document.getElementById('form_csrf').value = 'fBbFEexzRuhw1wsla2ugdkZPr7nrjUUV';</script> </div> <div id="footer" class="width"> © Odd Stråbø – <a href="mailto:oddstr13{at}openshell{dot}no" title="No spam please.">E-Mail</a> </div> </body> </html>
