Hi Jim – To get the linear correction, you should be able to make a calculated variable in .ino file and have that reported to MMW. It looks like there’s no code for calculated variables in the DRWI_CitSci.ino, but it is in the menu_a_la_carte.ino. Hope this helps!

The wiring and automatic temperature compensation would definitely be a time saver! Thanks for the comment!

I do get a 504 sending error when running 0.22.6, though. Fortunately, I was able to get version 0.21.4 working great after I made a fresh PlatformIO project and manually installed 0.21.4

I think that the “CEREG” change helped with the registration issue. I’m still not able to get ModularSensors 0.23.16 up and running, though. Seems like another modem issue – these things are definitely finicky! I’ll reach out through the SARA R410M modem GitHub thread or email. Thanks again for your help!

It’s odd that bypass mode works for the Xbees because the Sodaq Ubee I think is always talking directly to the Ublox.

I don’t have the latest firmware update. I’ve gotten in touch with Ublox for help updating the firmware because it looks like some Hologram folks have had LTE-M issues that have been resolved by…[Read more]

We are using the Sodaq Ubee R410M with Hologram SIMs to send data from our Mayflys, and up the modems were working great when we pulled our stream gauges from the field two…[Read more]

There are caps on how many ThingSpeak channels you can have and still have it be free (4 per account, I think), but you can make a ThingSpeak channel email or tweet at you when it meets certain conditions. Here’s a similar question about alarms from the…[Read more]

They are galvanic probes that are cheap and fairly accurate (+- 0.05 mg/l), but they do require a fair bit of effort to piece together. You would need the DO kit (previous link, $280), an isolated carrier board ($40, https://w…[Read more]

I have the same hardware as Cal and Brian, but I have a Taoglas LTE-M/NB-IoT antenna. Using the menu_a_la_carte.ino from Modular Sensors, the modem will throw a lot of “NO RESPONSE” messages while trying to synchronize with…[Read more]

I sent a pull request to the Modular Sensors library on GitHub yesterday with some messy code that I got to work with temperature, EC, and DO Atlas sensors using I2C, and it looks like @srgdamiano already made a new branch of the Modular Sensors library called…[Read more]
