  Solder bridge location for PCB 17.x
Posted by: hazelnut - 2019-01-10, 04:31 - Forum: Hardware, Software, Lightning Physics - Replies (2)

The docs say:

Quote:Due to a small manufacturer's breakdown on Panel 20.5, the printed circuit board next to the E-field preamplifier is not connected to the input of the E-field preamplifier. Here, either a small solder bridge must be set or a corresponding antenna must be connected to the input.

I've got PCB 17.1 2016-03-20 (from the overall PCB 20.6) and can't find any obvious location to add the solder bridge, is this still required for current revisions, and if so where do you place it?

Also, for the ground terminal on the case, do you need to solder a connection to the 19.x PCB somewhere for good contact or is it sort-of connected via the case -> Ethernet jack contact?

  Lightning animation and map during year 2018
Posted by: RongeLuk - 2019-01-05, 21:20 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (4)

Hi,

I have made some (maybe) interesting maps and animation from Blitzortung.org data during whole year 2018 over Europe (and surroundings).

First is timelapse movie of 90 minute strikes [Image: lightning.png]  history with 10 minute step. 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ygQJ1-iBnE&hd=1


Second is GIF animation of monthly merged lightning strikes into European map.

  MQTT Support

Hi,

Are there any plans to support MQTT on your local device. Or any other ways to push measurements? 

Cheers,

  Station statistic data correct?
Posted by: hazet_CHAM - 2018-12-19, 10:48 - Forum: Website, Maps and Applications - Replies (1)

Hello
Since a few days the servers seem to be at work again. 
However, I wonder why the column "number of signals" in the station list displays the same figures across all stations in the list. Is this correct or how is this to be interpreted?
Thanks for explanation(s).

Cheers and regards
Hans

  NTP server - problem
Posted by: Kingfisher - 2018-12-15, 22:46 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (3)

I have a system blue going (station 2241) and I notice that the time-stamp of NTP server
function is consistently 4 - 5 mS ahead of my other reference servers.  

Listed below is a time query from my workstation:-

allenc@pippin ~ $ ntpq -p

MOD EDIT:  REMOVED URL INFORMATION... please protect your security!
You can see that the time offset of every server except blitzortung is within + or - 1 mS. but  the
blitzortung offset is +4.8 mS

Obviously, you will want to keep the limited processing power of system blue available
for the primary purpose of monitoring lightning strikes,  but it would be nice if you
could get the NTP time-stamp a bit closer than 4 milliseconds.

  Two Issues so far...Fault light & Request Acct.
Posted by: Mike - 2018-12-01, 19:27 - Forum: General Discussion - Replies (13)

Hello,

Finished installing all the components onto the System Blue board.....  I purchased the alum. box with my kit and when I use the on/off switch which is connected to the jumper of pin 5 and 6 I get the fault light on.....to get rid of this I push the reset button on the System Blue board and the Power and Mode lights just come on.....I can connect my gps and after just a minute the blue gps light flashes on and off continually.  I then connected my network cable and the green network lite comes on steady and the lights at the network connection work as they should...green on steady and yellow flashes randomly.  

I can't find the "request and account".  I enter the IP address of my board in my browser, login and can see everything...Status, Settings, Tools, Signals, etc.... Under Settings/Network  I find Web Interface where I checked "Need authentication:" and put the same username and password that I used to get into my IP (not sure if this is what there looking for) address and clicked on Apply...but I'm not getting an email with the information I need.....sooo I think I'm in the wrong area here...

So where is the "request and account

Thanks for all your help...

  Lightningmaps.org still semi-active after 1 month
Posted by: dalex - 2018-11-25, 11:46 - Forum: Website, Maps and Applications - Replies (2)

It's being a month now, and the data flow from the server(s) to Lightningmaps.org has not been restored...

[Last update: 44,630 minutes ago]

Some of the information is correct, e.g. [Strokes Detected], station's [Last Update], etc.

All the rest stays "frozen" at the status of the problem day, October 25th.

Do we have any hope to see our (and others) data active before the New Year?  I know that is not a commercial operation, and developer staff has a life to live too, but ONE month?

How can WE help?
