Notes about upgrading RX software from v1.5 b0xx to v1.5 b013
- This is an important upgrade. Initialization sequence routines were much improved. The initial wait time, before you could start Cumulus (or other) is no more fixed in two minutes. Now this time can be as short as only 30 seconds, but also can be a little longer, depending on your reception conditions (better reception, less time).
The improvement is even more significant, for systems running for the first time, where before, the first initialization sequence also took other two minutes.
Now, the Com_LED remains ON until you will be able to start you preferred weather software (Cumulus or other).
At least one TX unit must be already working and sending Temp /Hum, Wind and Rain data, otherwise the RX unit never leaves the initialization sequence.
There is a new special Test Mode setting in Config_RX options. Enabling it, allows starting the RX unit without a working TX unit, but while the RX unit is running in Test Mode, it's not possible to connect it to any weather software, nor record to the data logger.
- Extra Sensors have a new easier and more logical mapping scheme. Instructions and examples of use are on the code, check the Config_RX tab.
Note: Today Rain, if any, may be lost after upgrading to WeatherDuino Pro2 RX v1.5_b013
Always check user config options. Default options, often are not suitable for you.
