Nuts that it sounds like the switch might be oxidizing. The switch solves a power vampire problem by switching off the CP210x – so I would expect the processor to carry on working. You might check what the humidity levels are in the unit, ensure that its largely isolated from fogs and possibly put in some dessicant to dry it out. At one point I…[Read more]

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]
