Hi there, I’ve got an Emonbase setup from 3 years back, which I want to get going again. Do I just follow the guidance for the EmonPi to set up Emoncms? I remember in my original setup having to use an external hard drive instead of the Pi SD card because of issues with writing too many times. But …

The latest emonSD image will work for both emonBase and emonPi with subtle differences. The most likely being the baud of the RFM2Pi verses the emonPi board in emonhub,conf. If you want to try and revive your kit we can help you, most of it will work out of the box, ie the emoncms server etc will b…

Yup as @pb66 the latest image should work fine with an adjustment of baud rate depending on your receiver module. Can you identify what receiver board you have RFM12Pi or RFM69Pi? The baud rate of the older RFM12Pi is 9600 see RFM12Pi photo: [image] The baud rate of the newer RFM69Pi is 38400 s…

Paul, Thanks. “In fact if I were you I would remove the RFM2Pi board, download the new image and install it to a SDcard and then boot up and do all the updates [you mean hit the update button on the emoncms web interface?] etc then power down and install the RFM2Pi [do you mean physically insta…

I can’t see any image attached.

This discussion has now melded with my older post: Unable to see emonTx inputs I have just tried swapping the RFM12Pi in the photo (version 2.6) with an older version (2.5.3) from another system, and I can now see Inputs! Suggests that the RFM12Pi v2.6 might be damaged (doesn’t look good on the ph…

[image] cmswinburn: Possible solve? Any way to resurrect the dead module? To know that we would need to know if it is dead and what sort of dead it was! To me it looks like you have some flux corrosion around the 10way connector joints and a “suspicious white bit” on the main chip. Previous…

[image] pb66: To me it looks like you have some flux corrosion around the 10way connector joints I noticed this on my RFM12Pi. Is there any way to clean it up and stop it causing problems in the future?[quote=“pb66, post:10, topic:3009”] What response do you get from this command? [/quote] …

Since my last reply Glyn gas relied on that other thread thread). to say the manifacturer was marking the chips with paint so that is no longer a concern, (see Newly created inputs not appearing in emonCMS via MQTT ).

Emonbase - same setup as EmonPi?

Sorry not sure what happened there.

No data from RFM2PI reaching emoncms
