Embedding MLRPT for recording Meteor M2 images #46
Comments

Hi Wilm,
Yes, it should be! Unfortunately I don't have the hardware to test this modules, but maybe some other people would like to give it a try? If there is a program for Meteor recording/decoding, which can be run from the command line, than building a module from it is super-simple. |

Also, please see issue #38 |

Hi Filip,
have a look at : http://5b4az.org
Go to weather imaging & Meteor-M ...
There is a piece of software called mlrpt which is a command-line
receiver/decoder.
http://www.5b4az.org/pkg/lrpt/mlrpt-1.1.tar.bz2
That one even works on Raspberry-Pi, so should be usefull for everybody.
Best,
Wilm

Good. I was able to download and compile the decoder (tested for But definitely we will need some beta testers then... 😅 |

Hi Filip, Best, |
|
I've created an super experimental module for meteor-m2 support, living in the
happy testing! |
|
Tested it since yesterday and firgured out, that mlrpt duration is not seconds, but minutes. Means, wrong documentation of mlrpt. We need to hand over minutes, not seconds. |
|
True, but (at least for 1.1) one may provide start-stop time range and duration is optional: |
|
... I think we should care about duration... I've added support for the duration in the meteor module: |

Hallo Filip, i just run the mlrpt by hand. Here i got the pics after Meteor is transmitting again. When the meteor.sh inside autowx2 starts it seems that there is something going wrong. It seems that after the first 20 sek. he received on the wrong freq. because mlrpt still is running. Best Tim Pic´s when i run by hand.

Congratulations on nice images! So what if in autowx2_config.py you set: |
|
Will give it a try. Next pass tomorow. |

God morning, tried to set SkipFirst = 0 and SkipLast = 0 If you looking at the last part of the log the used freq. is
but why?? Where is he getting the freq. from??

Good morning at all!
Solved the issue by removing the "-f" option in meteor.sh. As Meteor-M2
only uses 137900kHz, mlrpt defaults will do the job:

Modification in Meteor.sh
mlrpt -s $startT-$stopT -t $durationMin

But i get the same result.
If you looking at the last part of the log the used freq. is
mlrpt: Set SDR Frequency to 461046.5kHz
but why?? Where is he getting the freq. from??

Well done |
Is it possible, to embed mlrpt for Meteor M2 images as well ? It would be nice, to have a high quality weather-picture source as well.
Should be easy to implement another module for this case, (except for me)...
Best,
Wilm
