lemon started the topic Parameter Threshold Notifications in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 2 days, 19 hours ago
Has anyone set up notifications when Mayfly logger stations data exceeds a prescribed threshold? For example, if conductivity were to exceed 500 us/cm an email would be sent to a designated email address.

Thanks Scott!

Sensors, no. Autonomous orthophosphate wet chemistry, yes. Check out Green Eyes Science’s NuLab (https://gescience.com/nulab/) and Seabird’s hydrocycle (https://www.seabird.com/hydrocycle-po/product?id=54721314201). There are others out there, but these come to mind first.

Thank you – appreciate the quick response. I am not sure if I understand you correctly. At least the parameters that I am sending have correct UUID’s, I double checked, and all the parameters that I listed under the variableList[] have a UUID. However, I do measurements, e.g. soil temperature with a soil moisture sensor, which I do not send to MMW…[Read more]

Thanks, Shannon, for your response, clarifications and tremendous work with the Mayfly. Addressing your questions:
I’m powering the CS451 with the same 12v battery that powers the Mayfly from the 12-5v USB converter. The ground (-) of the Mayfly & battery are common. I could not find anywhere in the Campbell Sci specs the voltage level for the…[Read more]

I have a really similar issue (12V powered sensor + SPI-12) that I would appreciate some advice on. We want to monitor solar radiation (shortwave) under forest canopy, for which common silicon diode pyranometers (e.g. Apogee SP212) are not suitable – a thermopile pyranometer is needed. We have two options for thermopile pyranometers. 1) Apogee…[Read more]
Shannon Hicks replied to the topic Battery Power Options in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 6 days, 10 hours ago
To address your points:
1. Any power source connected to the 2 pins labeled “Ext 12v” will power the Mayfly but will not charge any LiPo batteries connected to the two LiPo jacks.
2. The solar panel connected to the JST jack labeled “SOLAR” should never exceed 6 volts. The charging circuity on the Mayfly uses a small chip that has a 6v…[Read more]
