Great! One question though, is everything already soldered and if so is there an option to for 868MHz?

@bjornhallberg if you want you can just order pcb and build your own node
@gohan Yeah I could but I'm just too lazy :-) There are a lot of components to source from AliExpress before anyone can build these boards. It would take months even if there aren't any errors in the BOM or lost packages from China.

@bjornhallberg since @Koresh is still in the early production stage, I think he can manage to make a few with a different radio, given of course he has the 866 mhz modules available 😁
-
If possible I would also like the option to chose 868 Mhz or be able to buy board without radio.

I have some assembled boards without the radio. You can buy them here https://www.ebid.net/eu/for-sale/arduino-ide-compatible-coincell-powered-controller-ready-for-rfm69cw-hcw-radio-156711327.htm . I just reminding this board has a rfm69HCW footprint but you can solder rfm69CW modules with the pcb adapter which I made. Of course I will supply the adapter with the main board. -

Great solution with the adapter board as well, you really do think of everything. Do you have the other boards without radio as well? Specifically the Switch Controller?

@bjornhallberg
I have some insertable switch boards without radio. I planned to solder nrf24 into them but can sell them without radio too (it supports only cw modules). Will put up for sale soon. -

@bjornhallberg I do not know exactly, but I don't think there should be any fees. Try to find out tomorrow.

@Koresh I got one of boards and would like to add Si1132-A10-GMR. What else I need to add? C8?
Why are you not using this sensor on your board?@alexsh1 yes, you should solder the sensor and the bypass capacitor. I have a lot of si1132 sensors, but I can't find the correct library. Almost promo videos of commertial sensors based on the si1132 shows incorrect data ))) It shows correct UV and IR level, but incorrect visible light value. So I decided to not solder this sensor yet.
-
@Koresh I would only use it for UV so this is good for me.

https://github.com/hardkernel/WEATHER-BOARD/tree/master/libraries/ODROID_Si1132
I am using this sensor purely for UV Index.
PS Got your sensor. Soldered it to the mote. Works just fine
-
@alexsh1 yes, you should solder the sensor and the bypass capacitor. I have a lot of si1132 sensors, but I can't find the correct library. Almost promo videos of commertial sensors based on the si1132 shows incorrect data ))) It shows correct UV and IR level, but incorrect visible light value. So I decided to not solder this sensor yet.
-
@Koresh I can see Si1132 visible light is twice more than BH1750.
Not sure what's wrong, but as you said it reports incorrect value.UV Index is in line with VEML6070
The sensor looks more complicated that I thought:
2.2. Ambient Light
The Si1132 has photodiodes capable of measuring both vi
sible and infrared light. Howe
ver, the visible photodiode
is also influenced by infrared light. The measurement of illuminance require
s the same spectral response as the
human eye. If an accurate lux measurement is desired, the
extra IR response of the vi
sible-light photodiode must
be compensated. Therefore, to allow the host to make corrections to the infrared light’s influence, the Si1132
reports the infrared light measurement on a separate channel. The separate visible and IR photodiodes lend
themselves to a variety of algorithmic solutions. The
host can then take these two measurements and run an
algorithm to derive an equivalent lux level as perceive
d by a human eye. Having
the IR correction algorithm
running in the host a
llows for the most flexibility in adjusting for system-dependent
variables. For example, if the
glass used in the system blocks visibl
e light more than infrared light, the
IR correction needs to be adjusted.I will have to spend more time to understand how to extract the correct ambient light
