Can't connect to AQE V2
@JoostWesseling If the LCD doesn't show the banner and the backlight doesn't turn on, it probably isn't getting power at all... I wonder if something got bumped in shipping and the USB connector got...

@JoostWesseling Scratch that, I misread your response - you said the banner does show up. Please let me know if installing the drivers fixes it for you.

Hi, My brand new AQE, version 1, remains reporting 0 ppb for both NO2 and CO. For the Egg, see https://personal.xively.com/feeds/2111795491 . Any suggestions as to why this is? Thanks, Joost Wesseling.

@JoostWesseling if I look at the time series of your v1 Egg, it is true that most of the time it reports zero. But occasionally it does report non-zero values (at least for CO). Screenshot from...

Hi, Thanks for the help! After installing the suggested drivers on my Mac the Egg popped up as a serial device and further installation went quite smoothly. The NO2 values reported by the Egg seem a...

Thanks for the feedback. Later this summer we will compare the results of our V1 and V2 eggs to results of reference measurements. I will try to adjust the calibration of the Egg in the way you...

Awesome, glad to hear that worked! I'll have to give FTDI support a call and see if they have any ideas on why it didn't happen automatically for you.

@ambanmba to add a bit to @Dirk's answer, you may need or want to reset the unit at run-time. For example, if you want to calibrate the meters using the Serial Monitor interface, it may be helpful to...

Whenever my Angular Clock hits 56 minutes past the hour, the minute needle goes back to 0. Then at 57 minutes, it goes to 1 then 58 minutes to 2 then 59 minutes to 3 then at the new hour it goes back...

My Angular Clock is part of a larger project controlled by an Arduino DUE. Since the DUE does not have a battery backup or real time clock, your board is very helpful.I would like to send time...
View ArticleHow best to send RTC time info to DUE board?
Interesting question! Generally speaking it sounds like you want to have to the Due be a master to the Angular Clock board acting as a proxy to the RTC. The easiest way to do that would be to have a...

Hi Vic,Thanks, that is a very helpful and informative reply! Yes, I will have the DUE be the master and the AC board just sending time info every minute, say, or upon request by the DUE.Certainly I...

Regarding the Due's second USB port, it might work, in particular since it can act as a USB Host as well, but the only way to know is to dive in and try it. Even if you can do it USB to USB, doing it...

@ambanmba sorry for the delay in responding... that is pretty strange! I don't really have a clear understanding of what could be going on. It sounds like a software issue, but you're the first person...

That all makes great sense. Thanks so much for your help. Thanks for the ICSP header map, and the tip about the LED.My only question left is, do you have a reference I can use to learn all the...

The Angular Clock uses the Microchip MCP79410 RTC, and the stock software that runs on the Angular Clock interacts with that chip using this Arduino library. So with minimal effort you could...

That is correct. Also, when I am in clock setting mode, setting it forwards and backwards through the magic 56 minute mark causes the effect and reverses the effect. For example, 1:55->1:00 then...
