Moving Test Pi to New Site.

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Moving Test Pi to New Site.

Post by Phil23 »

Hi All,

Planning on trying to take my test Pi to a remote GW1000 site tomorrow & installing it there.

Just wondering if I have all the requirement listed for maintaining what I've configured locally to start a new data set for the new location without deleting the ini file & starting from scratch.

Code: Select all

Delete Data directory
Reset Name, Description, Location, Altitude etc
Remove Start Date, LastLoggerDownload, YTDrain & YTDrainyear
Change [FTP site] Host=, Username= & Password=
Change [GW1000] IPAddress=
Remove any Third Party Uploads settings.
Browsing the ini file I think that covers it.

Anything I've missed or likely to get tripped up on?

Thanks

Phil.

Sounds about right - except...

Do not delete the /data folder, just its contents!
