Arduino Nano V3.0
#5

As uncle_bob said you can use the cheap chinese versions. I have always used these versions. They work well and are much cheaper.
You can find them for less than £ 4

Try these, they work:

Lately, have appeared some new versions that use a new chipset, the CH340. uncle_bob have one of these, also works, but it seems the method I use to prevent auto-reset does not work in these new versions.
Until I can test them, I don't recommned these versions. Search for the ones with the FTDI chip.

Just for future readers who stop by here, please note that the 2 Ebay auctions linked to above of the Arduino Nano compatible units, feature the Prolific PL2303 chipset. The PL2303 is an unknown quantity at this time for using with this WDPro2 project. Instead, a Nano with an FTDI chipset is recommended, just as Werk says. Also, uncle_bob has managed to get a CH340G chipset Nano to work by using a capacitor instead of resistor to prevent the Nano resetting upon connection to Cumulus, if I understand correctly. uncle_bob lists this Ebay item number here ;-

I personally bought the same type as Bob did for use in my RX 4.02 board, I ordered Ebay item 171488915728 here ;- http://www.ebay.com/itm/171488915728?_tr...EBIDX%3AIT ...and we will see if it works, as I build my own WDPro2 here ;- http://www.meteocercal.info/forum/Thread...-at-WDPro2

Fine Offset WH-1081 (Maplin N96FY) at present, soon to be WDPro2 I hope so that I can have Solar & UV graphs as well
