Meshtastic 01 try to work with ttgo lora V2.0

I still have some ttgo lora V2.0 on hand.







Base on the web info of meshtastic, 
https://meshtastic.org/docs/hardware/devices/lora/?t-lora=v2.0#resources-2 

this board has charger IC problem(I knew it).

and for ready made firmware selection, try T-loraV2.1-1.6

I tried to flash with 2.4 and 2.3015 firmware, it took a while, but it was able to load the firmware.

with android app, I can connect to each device through BT, first you need to config the region, then, the device will reboot.

connect through BT, the messaging between 2 devices, works fine. 

But on the other hand, I also have some heltec cube cell, which is a cypress CPU with newer lora chip. it only has 16MB memory, far from enough for meshtastic.


The OLED has serveral pages, For the Lora V2.1-1.6 and V2.1-1.8, Shorting IO12 to ground will progress through the screen pages and/or wake up the device. A simple push switch can be added for this purpose.

Meshtastic 03 adding GPS on TTGO lora32 V2

圖片
 I wish to add GPS on my running meshtastic client on TTGO lora32. I have a GPS module outputs with nema at 9600bps. In the config app, in the position sector, you  can find the redefine of PGS pins. I firstly use IO00 as GPS_RX_pin. But it does not work. I guess the web config use 0 as none-config default. Then I want to know what is the default pin for GPS in meshtastic for TTGO Lora 32, I use the 2.4.x firmware for V2.1-1.6. Checked the git, there is no default gps pin for this hardware, so I changed the gps to mcu pin to 34, leave other pins stuff as 0 and do the config .  And it works. there is a new flasher, which still has LILYGO T-Lora V2.1-1.6 as board selection, with latest 2.5.xx firmware maintain 34,0,0 setting is no longer working. after few try, I decided to set to 34/32/25, where 32/25 are free pin on my board. I also reference to  LILYGO Meshtastic T-Beam V1.2 ESP32 LoRaGPS WiFi , it has a gps on 34/12 with 34/12/0 the setting is still working

GeoSetter how to add geotag on to pictures, and export to google earth as kmz

圖片
I use gps info of my cell phone when I take pictures, so that I can find where these pics were taken after a long voyage. I also wish to export these pics to google earth or google map, which can be kml or kmz. https://geosetter.de/en/download-en/ Geo setter is a very powerful one. Some times my phone was not able to add geotag info on the the picture, since it does not have location info at that time(indoor picture or gps was not available). Of course you can edit the pic, but geo sitter provide a better interface, you can pic a location on map and then assign the location to the photo that you selected. much easier than deal with coordinates. I notes the steps as following. After install geosetter, select the folder where you store your images. photos with a blue location dot means these pics contain geotag. select one pic with no blue dot, and go to top menu "map", select "show overview map"  a google map will show up with goe location of pictures...

 It's possible to config client with attached sensor, in 2.4 version, there is IIC ones, maybe we can also use serial  function for sensors as well.( Serial Module Configuration ) Currently Supported Sensor Types ​ 2.4 Sensor I 2 C Address Data Points BMP085 0x76, 0x77 Temperature and barometric pressure BMP180 0x76, 0x77 Temperature and barometric pressure BMP280 0x76, 0x77 Temperature and barometric pressure BME280 0x76, 0x77 Temperature, barometric pressure and humidity BME680 0x76, 0x77 Temperature, barometric pressure, humidity and air resistance MCP9808 0x18 Temperature INA260 0x40, 0x41, 0x43 Current and Voltage INA219 0x40, 0x41, 0x43 Current and Voltage INA3221 0x42 3-channel Current and Voltage LPS22 0x5D, 0x5C Barometric pressure SHTC3 0x70 Temperature and humidity SHT31 0x44 Temperature and humidity PMSA003I 0x12 Concentration units by size and particle counts by size PMSA003I 0x12 Concentration units by size and particle counts by size DFROBOT_LARK 0x42 Temperatur...
