Shannon Hicks replied to the topic Mounting Sensor on Floating Buoy in the forum Infrastructure and Equipment 1 days, 11 hours ago
I know several people who have told me they’ve deployed Mayfly loggers in sensor stations on buoys or some other sort of floating platform, but I don’t think any of them have shared their methods or photos of their equipment. We’ve done several ourselves over the past few years, and I’m attaching a photo of one of our most recent versions. The l…[Read more]

There are descriptions of the battery and solar panel options in section 6 of the Monitoring Station Manual knowledge base, and also on this page about Mayfly Logger Battery Options.

Hi everyone, I’m in the process of ordering the mayfly and three probes. I am looking to purchase a stronger battery and solar panel than the ones in the starter kit. Does anyone have any recommendations? price range is 10-50 dollars.

Hi everyone, I am planning to install a sensor on a 32-acre reservoir that has a max depth of 8 ft. My plan as of now is to install it on a large (~6x6ft) flat floating buoy that would be anchored to the ground via a rope and cinder block. The buoy shouldn’t move around significantly, at most as much slack as I give the rope. Does anyone think…[Read more]

No, we’ve been busy with other projects and haven’t had time to do any more testing with the Digi modules.
Shannon Hicks replied to the topic Intermittent Data to SD Card in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 2 days, 12 hours ago
What do you mean by “it has told me the file belongs to another station”? The Mayfly is giving you that warning? Or do you get that warning if you try to manually upload files to MonitorMyWatershed. How many files are on the microSD card after a week-long or month-long deployment? It should be one continuous file unless the logger is resta…[Read more]
Shannon Hicks replied to the topic LTE Bee compatibility with older mayfly boards in the forum Mayfly Data Logger 2 days, 12 hours ago
Yes, the EnviroDIY sim7080 LTEbee module is compatible with the previous versions of the Mayfly board. There are no hardware changes to do, but you will have to edit your code slightly. The v1.x boards control power to the Bee socket (bee header pin 1) by using the the Mayfly’s D18 pin, allowing you to completely turn the 3.3v supply to the b…[Read more]

Hi,
Is the LTE Bee (sim7080G modem) compatible with older Mayfly data-logger boards? I read in some documentation that it could be used with Mayfly V0.5b boards with minor changes to code. Is it also compatible with Mayfly 0.4/0.5 boards, if so what hardware/code changes need to be made?
Any help is much appreciated.
Cheers.
