Re: Grass dry enough to cut

A Leaf Wetness Sensor maybe?
It sited right it might emulate a reading similar to the wetness of the blades of grass.
Soil Moisture could indicate when it's wet & boggy.

Re: Maximum Thermometers

They still seem to be pretty common. As in the combined Max/Min ones with the Magnetic marker.

Re: running old standard website and the new MX website together

Not sure what happened to my main one, but all PHP stopped a week or so back. Turned out to be these extra lines that the Hosting Provider had added to the end or the file # php -- BEGIN cPanel-generated handler, do not edit # Set the “alt-php71” package as the default “PHP” programming language. <I...

Re: Backup Software?

FreeFileSync has been one of my favorite's for years.
Can be configured in a manner of ways; Two Way, Mirror, Update etc.

Can be run from a Batch File & scheduled in Task Scheduler & also has a real time option that can monitor two folders, a bit like a cheap replication.

Did you ultimately get the rewrites to work? In my case the simple test I used to see if it was working was to attempt to open:- http://weather.inverellit.com/new/realtimegauges.txt which does not exist, but redirects & opens http://weather.inverellit.com/realtimegauges.txt Should be able to dup...

Re: Remote Access to rPi.

I got it work!! Some questions, is it possible to show the dashboard for Cumulus MX? (like 192.168.1.50:8998) Over the VNC Connection? When you are connected you can certainly launch a browser on the pi & go to localhost:8998. Viewing it on a remote PC's browser would require port forwarding &a...

Re: Adding a Today v Yesterday Page

My version seen here may suit you needs for the new site format.

You could us as is or slot it in elsewhere in the menu.
(Rename you existing one as a backup).

Cheers.

Re: Geiger counter

The problem is that the ESP is from a code point of view a kind of stranger to me. I do most on the RPi, preferably with C#. But is there not an advantage there in that the Arduino Code is essentially C++. That's something an Old Dog like me has been learning over the past week. Trying to move my h...

Such a mishmash of standards. Don't miss it at all. What is next steps for the Geiger Counter? Does an ESP32 Host sound like the ...

Re: Second Anemometer

I think Multiple Anemometers would just create a mess. I was a member of the Smallbore Rifle Club here for many years. We shot at a 50m range that was about 30m wide. 15 lanes/shooters & each lane had wind flags (ribbons) at the 20 & about 35m marks, all at about 4' off the ground. The wind ...

Quite the opposite down here. Into a very wet season it seems. Tried to Pan the graph South, but it covers a limited range. Wonder how it ties in with our Southern Oscillation Index which is currently high. http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/enso/history/ln-2010-12/SOI-what.shtml Ties in pretty well with...

Re: CUtils 6.8.1

Fixed,

Muggen's File Sync utility didn't copy over the changed earlier version of Renci.SshNet.dll on the Win install & then he compared files on the Pi install......

It comprises of 3 Swann cameras and an IQ? camera, a Vivotek VS3100 video server and a Norbain VQLC box. I've rigged it all up in the garage and all cameras show up on a TV which was a good start I'm using iSpy/Agent here on mine. But sounds like your camerars are primarily connected to an NVR........

Re: MXdiags - file encoding

Sounds like something weird going on within your OS. Every editor I've opened on my Pi's has been fine with all files. Geany is my main go to editor on the Pi, only using Nano for the likes of Crontabs. Sudo Geany [Filename] works for root edits. If you have a spare card or another Pi, you could tes...
