Trouble with FiPy code not working

[Dylan]

@mj I've tried lots of different things to get Atom working again with no luck, I just didn't even realize Visual studio was an option, I'm liking it so far.

[MJ]

@dylan Thanks for sharing but i am using the Atom not the Visual Studio. But until now the Pymakr still cannot installed.

@mj
Not sure if this will help but I just downloaded the VScode and got it running so I can do all I need to do in that.

@ralph Is the Pymakr version 1.2.10 compatible for the Atom 1.25.0 already? As until now i am unable to install the Pymakr 1.2.10 and show me failed to search for the Pymakr package " connect ETIMEDOUT 50.16.223.157.443". May i know how can i solve this? Thank you.

The code that worked on LoPy but not on FiPy. Worth noting that the LoPy was 1.11.0.b1 which is the version I downgraded the FiPy too.

Also how do I make the code look all neat in posts like I've seen elsewhere?

from network import LoRa
from pytrack import Pytrack
from coords import Coords
from CayenneLPP import CayenneLPP
from L76GNSS import L76GNSS
from LIS2HH12 import LIS2HH12
import machine
from machine import Pin
from machine import I2C
import socket
import binascii
import struct
import time
import array
# Initialize LoRa in LORAWAN mode.
lora = LoRa(mode=LoRa.LORAWAN, public=1,  adr=0, tx_retries=0)
# Remove default channels
dev_addr = struct.unpack(">l", binascii.unhexlify('269928E2'.replace(' ','')))[0]
nwk_swkey = binascii.unhexlify('7A7E7000000F93BD1BB4693127C374FE'.replace(' ',''))
app_swkey = binascii.unhexlify('F93BD1BBBA53BBF3B4096A72115E9F5D'.replace(' ',''))

for index in range(0, 72):
    lora.remove_channel(index)

    lora.add_channel(index, frequency=918000000, dr_min=0, dr_max=3)

lora.join(activation=LoRa.ABP, auth=(dev_addr, nwk_swkey, app_swkey), timeout=0)
# wait until the module has joined the network


while not lora.has_joined():
    time.sleep(5)

# remove all the non-default channels

for i in range(8, 15):
    lora.remove_channel(i)
# create a LoRa socket
s = socket.socket(socket.AF_LORA, socket.SOCK_RAW)

# set the LoRaWAN data rate

s.setsockopt(socket.SOL_LORA, socket.SO_DR, 3)

# make the socket blocking
s.setblocking(False)
time.sleep(2.5)
while lora.has_joined():
    acc = LIS2HH12()
    pitch = acc.pitch()
    roll = acc.roll()
    time.sleep(1)
    py = Pytrack()
    battery = py.read_battery_voltage()
    battery = battery * 10
    cayenne = CayenneLPP()
    time.sleep(1)
    l76 = L76GNSS(py, timeout=10)
    lat1 = str(l76.lattitude())
    lon1 = l76.longitude()
    if len(lat1) > 5:
        lona = lat1
        lata = lon1
        meta = 9500
        lat = float(lona)
        lon = float(lata)
        met = float(meta)
        cayenne.add_gps(4, lat, lon, met)
        cayenne.add_temperature(3, battery)
        s.send(cayenne.get_buffer())

    if len(lat1) < 5:
        cayenne = CayenneLPP()
        cayenne.add_temperature(3, battery)
        s.send(cayenne.get_buffer())
        print('No fix')
    rx = s.recv(256)
    if rx:
        print(rx)
    machine.deepsleep(890000)

@ralph Ok Cool, it all worked on the home computer so I managed to get a bit of work done over the weekend anyway.

@seb No problem, I'll put both here next post.

[Ralph]

@Dylan Sorry about this, but Pymakr has some issues with Atom 1.25. If you are on OSX, update to todays v1.2.10 of Pymakr. For windows and linux we are still working on a fix.

@dylan
Can you share the code that didnt work until you upgraded? If you dont want to share publicly you can email it to me: sebastian@pycom.io

As for the pymakr issue, I will pass this along to that team, they will be in touch soon.

[Dylan]

Not sure if coincidence or not, but straight after downgrading the firmware I get the following error in atom:
Failed to load the Pymakr package
Cannot find module 'serialport'

I've tried re-installing many times to no success, I'm just going to Filezilla what I need to test over the weekend and let it be a Monday problem, but if you have any ideas whats going on there, any help would be appreciated,

[Dylan]

Downgrading the firmware has solved the problem

[Dylan]

@dylan Looks like it isn't waking up from time.sleep or machine.deepsleep, I'll give that a google and see how it goes.

[Dylan]

@livius I am using the sample code from the LoRaWAN nano-gateway docs for the node with ABP.

[livius]

@dylan
without the sample i suppose no one can predict the reason
