It looks as though re-powering the emonTx hasn’t worked. I’m still not receiving anything through emoncms.org, so maybe it is the emonbase power supply. I have a plug socket available so i’ll try using that instead of the usb option.
I would like to try connecting via serial to the emonbase though as it sounds more robust (although i’ll still have rf connectivity for one of my emonTx’s on site). Can you confirm that the sketch you built doesn’t need any modifications (except switching off rf) when I connect via serial? I’m assuming I can connect per this wiki - EmonTx V3.4 - OpenEnergyMonitor Wiki. It would also be good to understand what I would need to do if i’m connecting to 2x emonTx with a single emonbase. Could I connect one via serial and one via rf or would it be better to do both via rf and have some delay in the signal?
@borpin - Rob, has suggested you might be the right person to speak to regarding PiZero connectivity?? I’m looking to connect a PiZero to an emonTx per this thread 4 CT emonBase using emonTx and Pi Zero W My question is do you know if there will be sufficient power for me to run the PiZero off the emonTx and also use a usb/Ethernet adapter to connectro to the LAN network? Thanks
