Stuff I do, stuff I like
I have a bug! Four days ago the microcontroller got stuck. The LED was on, but it was no longer transmitting. So I hit reset and continued testing. One of the things I added was a watchdog trigger. The CubeCell board has a build in watchdog – and the only thing you need to do […]
Not too much progress but I said I rather blog more often this time instead of just reporting the result at the end. I am usually working about between 30 minutes to an hour in the evening on this project, a bit more during the weekend. So it is slow steps. Software When I built […]
I built this type of weather station before. But unlike the last times, when I blogged only after I completed it, this time I will blog during building it. I do not spend too much time on this. Still working from home I often lack the energy going back to my desk in the evening […]
In this part I write about the microcontroller I am using and the code. Recently the Raspberry Pi Foundation released a completely new designed microcontroller which can be programmed with MicroPython. Named the RP2040, it is somewhat limited as it does not have Wifi or any other means of wireless communication on board, but it […]
This is my most complex 3D printed project so far. The idea: I have now quite a number of weather sensors. I measure temperature with solar-powered sensors which transmit their data using LoRaWan at two locations now. I measure if it rains (qualitative measurement only). But I do not measure wind yet. So to keep […]
