Stephen H started the topic Issue with USB not connecting in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 6 days, 15 hours ago
On a Linux box(but really any platform I suspect), especially with mayflies that have been in the field for a time, the USB port goes dead. Strangely the Mayfly seems to continue to work, you just can’t connect to the serial port, and or upload new code. You can tell because with the USB switch(the double dip switch for power light and USB l…[Read more]

Hi Eric. this is a voltage sensor, so it fits a pretty basic type of sensor, measure the voltage and then translate it to depth.
For a sensor, layers of calibration give value. Calibration of the sensor to defined units (V to mm), and calibration of the water height to the measured height in the flume.
The accuracy sounds pretty reasonable, for…[Read more]

Thank you for the replay. Do you know the data logger’s maximum sampling rate (logging rate)? A LICOR rep said that the LI-710 transmits 10 Hz data

I spoke too soon. The Campbell ClariVUE10 eventually developed interval reporting issues with the last library that I mentioned above so I copied the libraries from my old computer onto my new computer because it was the last set of libraries that didn’t have issues. But now it is having interval reporting issues too and the CTD sensor readings…[Read more]

The electronics themselves are rated up to 85 degrees C (185F). We’ve never had an issue with the boards at high temperatures, it’s just that the lipo battery packs don’t really like extreme temps (either hot or cold) because they don’t charge efficiently. Just doing a cursory check of random stations on Monitor My Watershed in warm climates, I…[Read more]

Thank you for your reply. Do you anticipate the coding to be intensive (more than a few hundred lines)?
Yes, I would be powering the LI-710 with a deep cycle AGM battery.
On a different note, what temperatures has the Mayfly and LTE Bee been tested in?
I would be deploying it in an area where temperatures surpass 115 f.
