OK, I’m giving up on the ProTrinket solution. I went with the ProTrinket originally because there was a wiring diagram I could understand (not a hardware person). I need a similar picture for the Mayfly. I don’t understand what the following means: “First you need to enable the pullup resistor on pin D10, which is already built in to the Mayfly board, you just have to close jumper SJ12 on the back of the Mayfly.”

I see the SJ12 D10 P/U on the back of the Mayfly. Don’t know what to do.

I went with the ProTrinket/Mayfly solution. My problem is no red light on the ProTrinket, only a green, I have pushed the reset button on the ProTrinket but still no red light. Is there a setting under tools that needs to be changed? If you look up bootloader for the ProTrinket, it says the ProTrinket must be connected to a computer via USB. In the above instructions, the Mayfly is connected to the computer via USB and the ProTrinket is connected to the Mayfly. Is that my problem?

 

I have loaded date/time and the blink sketch so I know the Mayfly is good.

Thank you for your help. I’ve ordered a ProTrinket. Basically, I am trying to recreate what the rain logger did before it died. Log date, time and a tip, convert the tip to inches and have a running total per rain event. Ultimately, be able to retrieve the data remotely. We have three broken loggers (very old) and one that is still functioning. We are only measuring rain, not temperature. Info on logger:
