Several of the weather reporting systems we have running broke down at 5:15 PM yesterday. While setting up fans in the windows after a long hot day, I suspect I bumped the GW1100 gateway device and cause it to malfunction. The gateway gets signals from all the local sensors, and makes that data available on the LAN. From there, a Raspberry Pi reads the data, formats it into several pretty formats, and forwards it on the website where you read it, and also forwards the data on to other online sites.
The gateway was in a quirky state neither on nor off, and the Raspberry Pi locked up waiting for it complete a conversation with gateway.
I didn’t notice the problem until this morning and after a lot of running around getting diagnostic info, turning things off and back on again (still the #1 solution to IT problems!) and jiggling a lot of wires, it appears we’re back up and running.
