radmon.org

I knocked up a simple monitor to easily see if radmon.org is up or down. It uses an ESP8266 (Wemos D1 mini clone) and a single RGB LED. It simply polls radmon.org by asking for a response from the server. If it gets the reply it is expecting in a timely manner it lights the LED green. If it doesn't get the reply it wants, or times out, the LED changes to orange and sets a fail counter +1. If it receives the correct reply again it goes back to green, but after 3 consecutive failures the LED lights red. There really isn't much more to it. There are positions in the code where an alarm or

** Note: This is for submission of CPM readings to radmon.org. This was working at the time of writing but updates to libraries may cause issues. Here is some Arduino code for the Arduino Uno, Mega2560 and Pro Mini with WizNet W5100 ethernet shield. This is bare-bones code only. It does only these things: receives pulses on pin 2 (Uno, Mega & Pro Mini), calculates CPM and submits it to Radmon.org (via ethernet shield) every 60 seconds. It has a little debugging that can print to serial and I have also added CPM print to serial (much like the NetIO GC-10) that can be used with the Radlog

** Note: This is for submission of CPM readings to radmon.org. Here is some Arduino code for the ESP8266 written and tested on a Wemos D1 Mini. This is bare-bones code only. It does only these things: receives pulses on GPIO 13 (physical pin D7 on Wemos D1 Mini), calculates CPM and submits it to Radmon.org (via WiFi) every 60 seconds. It has a little debugging that can print to serial, flashes the internal LED when an interrupt event is detected and I have also added CPM print to serial (much like the NetIO GC-10) that can be used with the Radlog windows logging software - and that is it.
