| | [[Winter 2009]] <br> |
| * Windchill calculation, both the Davis interface firmware upgrade and the new formula. Bryan.
| | [[2006]] |

| Alan, Jeff, Bryan, Colin, Maduna, Tom, Alex, Charlie
| |
| * C to read raw value, Perl (called from cron) to buffer to file and send to server every N times, server inserts into database and returns ACK to Perl.
| |
| * Use TV antenna for the tower.
| |
| * Check the TS-5600 library.
| |
| * Watchdog timer (Jeff)
| |
| * Rain gauge (Tom, Maduna)
| |
| * GPS (Alex, Jeff), solar radiation (Colin, Maduna)
| |
| * Alan's applications - 1) small machine that does temp and displays via http and send X10 commands out the serial interface with X10 switches and dial-up and ethernet interfaces. 2) robot to go in a house under remote control, B/W (or color) video, up stairs, 30 minute, budget of about $2000.

| ==To Do==
| |
| Last updated 2006-02-05
| |
| * Fix wind chill calculation, use new formula
| |
| * Figure-out watchdog timer on PMP
| |
| * Backup on PMP - just needs to be put in cron (Tom)
| |
| * Wind data for this area (Mary) | |
| * Problems with direction - determine input voltage and calibrate to that (Alex and Colin)
| |
| ** Stable voltage needed, e.g. when WiFi card is removed voltage fluctuates. Measure at start and end, if equal than ok.
| |
| * Porting wind speed and direction software and setup to pmp, made some progress (Mary, Alex, Colin)
| |
| ** Speed working now, using sigalarm(), need a resistor? DIO for power.
| |
| ** Direction isn't working yet.
| |
| ** Next week on roof?
| |
| ** Two weeks in field?
| |
| * Sleep and wake on pmp1 with watchdog timer (Mary)
| |
| * Weather Cam is working again, cluster camera to be setup in D209.
| |
| * RP&L Weather data, contact Gus Duke. Indiana American Water has a link which she sent. (Mary, Charlie)
| |
| * Rain guage, Mary has worked on it but it's not working. (Mary, Charlie)
| |
| * Solar radiation sensor, continues to make progress, conversion and data comparison (Colin)
| |
| ** How to set angle/calibration.
| |
| * GPS setup with time server (Tom)

| ** The Wind direction sends an analogue number.
| |
| ** The wind speed is the number of pulses per 2.25 second interval. The number of pulses is the windspeed in MPH.
