Internal modem software can only be as good as its tested, sub-modules  comms software is complicated and its very difficult to test for all cases.

The Maylfy1.1 now supports a power off c…[Read more]

I would note that the Mayfly1.0 charger is different than 0.5b, and I’m seeing that it wants a slightly higher+5V than the Mayfly 0.5b for it to do a 0.5A charge of the LiIon battery. I am using USB charging monitor “USB Meter” to monitor the charge…[Read more]

Thank you @srgdamiano and @ckillen!! I’ve begun ordering parts for 9 additional stations and have been fearing that buying another 9 XBee3 LTE-M modems was going to lead us into a world of frustration with failing modems; hopefully this discovery prevents that.

Regarding XBee firmware: Just a week ago, we deployed a batch of…[Read more]

Interestingly, despite the face that I’m pretty sure there’s better service with Verizon here tha…[Read more]

You know, though, I’ve never actually done it.  Time to walk down the hall to borrow Shannon’s soldering iron..

The socket can be used for several types of radios, including the 2G one that you have, WIFI radios, and the new XBee3 by Digi, that supports LTE-M communication…[Read more]
