This was on Ethernet.
Glad you have found the issue.

mc-Gateway / Hung Gateway.
« on: February 20, 2017, 02:46:55 pm »
Hello.

This morning our data wasn't coming through and required a power cycle of the gateway to restore connectivity.

Our current project is for remote monitoring on a 4G modem so this type of hang up is not ideal.

Looking on the losant server side i see the following errors.

I am not sure if its the gateway or Losant that caused the problem.

Gateway firmware is
mcGateway110-hp-v0.8-421.bin
mcGw110.bin

Anyone have any ideas?

Regards
Bart

mc-Studio / Maths library or functions ??
« on: February 16, 2017, 08:26:57 pm »
Hello

Are there any maths libraries for square root, sin/cos/tan etc?
I am gather there isn't but being hopeful.

Hello.

While on the subject of GPS feature requests, knowing the Dilution Of Precision would be very helpful.

This could be used in the backend server to calculate the gps position error.

The telit gps is not fantastically fast at locking especially while on the move.

Hi Abe,

Thank you for your reply.
It does not appear to come through even thought it should be queued
I set my thread to 20s with no change and then bumped it up to 30s and everything kicked into life.  :)
What really got me was the difference running in debug (no breakpoints) vs standalone.
Many thanks

Regards
Bart

Thank you for clarifying these details. I have a for loop search work around for now.

Hi Abe,
Thanks for the reply

Yes this will likely explain the missing packets as i was hammering it from the ide to see what was going on.

However with the debug vs stand alone code there seems to be still an issue.

True we are in a 5 second thread but under normal condition we only send on sensed events.
In the test setup I have it the unit will power up and send one message and then wait for an event.
this is what i see under debug with no breakpoints but stand alone nothing happens.

Is there a power on wait period required before trying to send?

Regards
Bart

I spoke too soon. now my current project is 100% dead also...

Sigfox works mostly fine under debug but as soon as i build and "load and save"
power cycle and run from battery or usb for that matter...

I the code blinks an led after Lplan.Sigfox(msg) fine but nothing ends up at the sigfox backend,

The thread is called every 5 seconds to poll sensors and do so calcs there is only the odd message sent based on filtered events.

Code snippets / flow concept below please let me know a support email address that i can email the full project to..

Is there something i have missed???

I have tried the build release and debug neither seem to work for me.

As soon as i connect in mcstudio build and run in debug works first go...

regards
Bart

Hello,

I am missing events from my 205 and am having a closer look to see whats going on.

It looks like the 205 is not sending occasionally and I suspect I have seen this before.

Our office is covered by 3 sigfox base stations and even though our RSSI is somewhat low ~15-20dB SNR the packets are usually seen 2-3 times per station.

However I have just logged two missing packets that never made it even though i manually stepped through the code..

This is really messing up our demo projects and budgets.

Any one have any ideas?
