earthquake_detector

Hardware low power device to trigger messages when detect earthquakes.

Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your device.

Prerequisites

Follow all instructions here to get hidnseek board working on arduino IDE: https://github.com/hidnseek/hidnseek/tree/master/arduino

Libraries needed: Hidnseek library: https://github.com/hidnseek/hidnseek

Accelerometer library: https://github.com/Flummy/FluMMA865x

Streaming library from: https://github.com/kachok/arduino-libraries

USB-Serial driver download: http://www.prolific.com.tw/US/ShowProduct.aspx?p_id=229&pcid=41

Installing

Steps to flash Hidnseek device:

Long(First setup): Follow instructions here: https://github.com/Bucknalla/sigfox-hidnseek-tutorial/blob/master/README.md

Short(Already setup):

1. Take off top
2. Plug device into power source
3. Short G and R pins
4. Quickly upload firmware as programmer (Arduino IDE: Sketch->Upload using programmer) (Important that step 4 is done quickly after step 3, while red light flashing on device)

Running the tests

In DEBUG mode, prints to serial. To use USB-Serial port download(mentioned earlier): http://www.prolific.com.tw/US/ShowProduct.aspx?p_id=229&pcid=41

All easily modifiable values are in def.h:

• Variable clock fix loop
• Variable device sleep loop
• Variable gravity scale for accelerometer
• Variable accelerometer sensitivity threshold,
• Variable accelerometer sleep count after interrupt
• Variable accelerometer data rate for sleep and wake modes

Built With

• C/C++ (Using Hidnseek device)
