Weather Station

I’ve spent the better part of 2021 summer working with a weather station I found on Instructables, assisting to get the deep sleep functionality working. I’m using my Confluence page to collaborate with a friend in Germany on the project.

I did start a couple of topics on this site where people can reach out with questions though.

  • Hello, I am currently using version 1.1 of your software on the original version of the PCB I have made your changes (LDO etc) I am struglling to get the wind and direction to work however , I tried the latest vers 1.2c I believe and I am getting an error and constant rebooting not sure if its a “ESP32 setup” issue in Arduino IDE or something else .The software loads (without having to push the boot button btw) and runs but immediately starts rebooting and I copied the error message as follows;
    failed with state -2E (60823) task_wdt: Task watchdog got triggered. The following tasks did not reset the watchdog in time:
    E (60823) task_wdt: – loopTask (CPU 1)

    Sorry so long but I am an intermediate DIY person and know enough to make me dangerous when changing code lol.
    If you have any ideas I direction for me I would greatly appreciate it,

  • Hi Jim,
    on monday I will receive the v4.0.1 from production and will also assemble the PCB and put it into operation. It is only about a 24 hour function test and will be published after the test. The first test PCB v4 runs great and the code v1.2 doesn’t cause any problems. The power consumption is good and you can operate the weather station for a few days (~ 14-20 days) without the sun.

    Actually there shouldn’t be any errors with the v1.1, did you set the right board in the Arduino IDE?

    Greetings Thomas
