Overview
The Weather board is an easy to use ODROID-SHOW Add-on that grants you access to UV Index, barometric pressure, altitude, relative humidity, illumination and temperature. Each board comes with a 6-pin connector for ODROID-SHOW connection. All the sensor data goes though I2C communication between sensor ICs and ATMEGA328P MCU on the ODROID-SHOW.
With a lithium polymer battery, you can make a portable outdoor weather data capture system.
To use Weather board in ODROID-SHOW, you need to write a WEATHER-BOARD firmware.
Setting up the ODROID-SHOW on ubuntu
Download the ODROID-SHOW source code
# sudo apt-get install git # cd ~/work # git clone https://github.com/hardkernel/ODROID-SHOW
Install the arduino IDE
Run arduino IDE
Open “show_main.ino” sketch file in this path.
ODROID-SHOW/show_main/show_main.ino
Setting Preferences
Add Libraries
You need to add the ODROID-SHOW libraries in the IDE through the menu skech → import Library… → Add Library…
The following way, add ODROID-SHOW folder. (sketchbook folder)
Compile and Upload
Check the serial port between /dev/ttyUSBn and “tools → Serial Port” of arduino IDE.
# ls /dev/ttyUSB*
Finally after connecting the jumper, click “upload” button of arduino IDE.
The DTR reset jumper MUST be installed when you upload the firmware.
The DTR reset jumper must NOT be installed in normal usage mode.
