Yesterday we run a 7 hour test to check if everything works fine with the main board. We were at the same point excited and disappointed about the results: the hardware works without problems (wich was the main goal), but the station wasn’t able to upload data 8 times for about 15 minutes each.
We are putting all our efforts to solve that problem.
We made 3 hypothesis:
- The server could have been busy (but it could not have been for such a long time);
- There could have been problems in the serial communication between the ESP8266 and the ATMEGA328 (maybe because we used 115200 as baudrate)
- There could also have been problems between the ESP8266 and our modem, not allowing it to connect to the internet and so to perform the upload.
If you want to look at the results here is the link to our Thingspeak channel: https://thingspeak.com/channels/116312
