RE: The Windchillator - Reducing the sleep current of the Arduino MKR WIFI 1010 to 800 uA

if you disable the ECC508 chip you disable the I2C interface, at least i have discovered on my skin this thing, lost lot of hour to found the problem :)

Thanks for this. By the way, your labels for R7 and R27 are swapped according to the board layout here -> https://store.arduino.cc/usa/mkr-wifi-1010

RE: Arduino MKR 10xx, ETH Shield and Amazon Web Services: Safe MQTT with SSL and Certificate

tdp1985 — Tue, 07 Apr 2020 10:51:40 GMT

Dear Jan,

Thank you very much for this article.

I use the same hardware as you : Arduino Mkr Zero + Mkr Eth shield.

I would like to connect to a MQTT server that support TLS or SSL, no certificate needed but just Login / Password.

So I stuck on this part of your code : sslClient.setEccSlot(0, certificate);

With a MQTT client on computer I use theses setting :

Connectivity : Websockets

Enable user authentification: User / password

TLS/SSL Mode : Certificates and keys provided externally

Protocol : TLSv1.2

Do you know how is it possible to modify your code to connect to these kind of MQTT with TLS server ?

Thank you very much.

Hi Ralph , this is pretty cool indeed , im looking to make a similar project. you mind if I ask a few thing or if you could share your code ?

Excellent write up. Is there a way I can get access to the AVT-1705 kit in the USA that you know of?

Thanks

Hey [mention:b60dcf9c31a8492ea6badbcc611934d0:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05]

Hope you are doing great. As you are getting problem with ALSA. Matrix updated the MATRIX kernel modules to be compatible with the latest Raspbian kernels so please try that may be you are getting error because of this.

Please let me know whether this fix your problem or not.

Note:- Don't use Debian Buster latest RPi image

Regards

Hi Ralph,

I'm using an older RPi 1B to run my sprinkler system with OpenSprinkler and my home-built control board to switch the zones, but the "enclosure" I have is just a little plastic ziplock-type container [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-c1fe56e4-abb6-4ff2-bae2-512ab4906c31/contentimage_5F00_2516.png:16:16]

I like the look of the enclosure you have, but am curious how this is working out for you (I'm hoping you've been using it for a month now?) - did you need to add any ventilation to the box? or do you just leave the front open or the lid off?

Thanks,

-Nico

edit: here's what mine looks like... needs work [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-c1fe56e4-abb6-4ff2-bae2-512ab4906c31/contentimage_5F00_2516.png:16:16]

Very useful data. I guess that's why it makes sense to aggregate sensors using lower power mesh communication like and then having a single WiFi gateway.

A great project.

Its a very useful thing for anyone who forgets where the things actually are.

Interesting product, does it need to be connected to 0V or earth to suppress the emf, or does it remain floating?

Kind regards.

I am also facing this type of error on my device. It is showing Asus error code 55. Do you have any idea how to fix this?
