However.... macascos on "EthernetDHCP not declared in this scope" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=113#post-253 Tue, 06 Dec 2011 19:57:57 +0000 macascos 253@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ I was following this, Libraries go into the main Arduino document folder. Here’s some instructions from the Arduino site “To install third-party libraries, create a directory called libraries within your sketchbook directory. Then unzip the library there. For example, to install the Twitter library, its files should be in the/libraries/Twitter sub-folder of your sketchbook folder.” and I have also tried putting the libraries where you told me. I have libraries now in both places, but still cannot compile the code. When I do import library Ethernet, I see no new line at the top like the other libraries. Do you think this might be the issue? rob on "EthernetDHCP not declared in this scope" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=113#post-252 Tue, 06 Dec 2011 02:41:41 +0000 rob 252@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ No the correct path would be ~/Documents/Arduino/libraries/ArduinoEthernet/EthernetDNS/EthernetDNS.h Check the library documentation linked to <a href="/kits/customize">online</a>. macascos on "EthernetDHCP not declared in this scope" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=113#post-251 Tue, 06 Dec 2011 01:53:32 +0000 macascos 251@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ This seems right no? macascos on "EthernetDHCP not declared in this scope" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=113#post-249 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 03:40:12 +0000 macascos 249@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ Would this be the path?

Without the detailed instruction in this thread it would have been much more difficult and time-killing!! Some corrections and advices: - Take v2.17 not v2.15, it's the adapted and updated version, so you have to do less adjustments in the code. - Be aware of the other FTDI cable direction for the old vs. new kit while hooking up the cable, do not follow the Link "Customize" in maathieu's posting, it refers NOW to the new leaf, use the old manual under <a href="http://www.botanicalls.com/kits/xport-leaf-kit-customize/" rel="nofollow">http://www.botanicalls.com/kits/xport-leaf-kit-customize/</a> Seems that the direction has changed: New kit black cable to the bifacial foliate, old kit: green! Double check the "blk" mark on your board! - I had problems uploading the code to IO Board, seems you have to press first reset on the leaf and then start the upload (order is a bit confusing in the other posting above ;-). - Had also some problems with right COM port initially. Played around some time so it worked. Can not remember what the problem solved in the end - did updating some days before writing this. ;-) admin on "Twitter shutting down basic auth June 30" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=36#post-199 Thu, 30 Jun 2011 12:16:17 +0000 admin 199@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ In what way did the leaf board die?

All worked when I put it together with the preprogramming. However, I still can't upload the version 2.17 codes no matter how many times I press reset then upload with the recommended timing. I had some luck uploading when I changed the board to Arduion Duemilanove or Nano w/ ATmega328. But when it uploads the red led stays on for quite some time goes off for a second then back on for a long period of time. I get no responses when i press the test button to twitter and have checked my supertweet password and activation about 1000 times. any suggestions? rob on "Twitter shutting down basic auth June 30" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=36#post-190 Thu, 14 Apr 2011 01:35:56 +0000 rob 190@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ Yes you can use v2.17_OAUTH code on that original leaf board.

The larger cap will filter out lower noise frequencies, possibly most useful since there's generally going to be a regulated A/C power supply connected to the regulator. However feel free to substitute other values if you prefer. lscarmic on "Voltage regulator - cap. discrepancy" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=83#post-187 Sun, 10 Apr 2011 20:25:38 +0000 lscarmic 187@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ The Botanicalls schematic on SparkFun shows a 100u an a 10u on the in and out of the voltage regulator, respectively.

Since some people seem to have trouble to get it to work, here's a tutorial compiled by the <a href="http://www.logre.org">LOG</a>, Grenoble's Hackerspace, from many different internet sources, which I tried to quote accordingly. Special thanks to Meik Mense for the authentication mod, and to the earlier posters here for the initial pointers to SuperTweet and beyond. Of course, we decline all responsibility, yadda yadda yadda. Double-check everything! What you will need Hardware <ul> <li>One FTDI 3.3v cable (can be bought on several online stores). 3.3v is important, maybe 5v will fry your leaf.</li> </ul> Software <ul> <li>Install the Arduino environment suitable to your operating system (<a href="http://arduino.cc/en/Main/Software">download here</a>)</li> <li>Get the Botanicalls Source Code v2.15 (<a href="http://www.botanicalls.com/kits/customize/">download here</a>)</li> </ul> Getting started <ol> <li>First of all, you will need to register on SuperTweet. It's actually easy: go to <a href="http://www.supertweet.net/">SuperTweet</a> and login with your Botanicalls twitter account (Botanicalls0XXX) by clicking on "Sign in with Twitter." Follow the instructions and "Activate" your account. You will be asked to set a new password (different from your twitter account's password), do so and write it down - you'll need it later.</li> <li>Then, unplug your leaf from the power supply and plug it in the FTDI cable, following the instructions of the <a href="http://www.botanicalls.com/kits/customize/">Customize</a> page of this website. Holding the leaf upwards (network connector going towards the ground), the connector should be plugged on the pins that are on the right of the board. There is a small "blk" marking at the bottom and it should be matched to the black wire of the connector.</li> <li>Then, plug the USB end of the FTDI cable into your computer. You'll see your leaf blinking and it's going to go live again.</li> <li>Unzip the source code you got earlier in a convenient directory.</li> <li>Finally, start the Arduino environment and open the said source code (File > Sketchbook > Open...)</li> </ol> Modify the code Until Botanicalls integrates those modifications into a new firmware, you will need to patch the code manually. Here's what you need to edit: In BotanicallsTwitter: At line 8 replace: <code>#define VERSION "2.15" // initial leaf board</code> by: <code>#define VERSION "2.15c" // initial leaf board</code> (this will be useful later) At line 12 change: <code>#define USERNAMEPASS "username:password" // your twitter username and password, seperated by a :</code> And put in your Twitter username and the password you defined in SuperTweet (NOT your Twitter password!). At line 54 change the IP address: <code>#define IPADDR "128.121.146.100" // twitter.com</code> becomes <code>#define IPADDR "66.180.175.246" // api.supertweet.net</code> At line 56 replace: <code>#define HTTPPATH "/statuses/update.xml" // the person we want to follow</code> by <code>#define HTTPPATH "/1/statuses/update.xml" // the person we want to follow</code> And finally uncomment the two lines 121 and 122: <code> // uint8_t response = posttweet("Botanicalls!"); // send a startup message to Twitter // notify(response); </code> so you get: <code> uint8_t response = posttweet("Botanicalls!"); // send a startup message to Twitter notify(response); </code> This will allow for immediate testing. In checks: At line 111 replace: <code>char *str3 = "%";</code> by <code>char *str3 = "%25";</code> This is to correct a bug (strings should be urlencoded). in twitter: Replace line 167 and following: <code> // next, the authentication putstringSS("Host: "); putstringSS_nl(IPADDR); putstring("Host: "); putstring_nl(IPADDR); putstringSS("Authorization: Basic "); putstring("Authorization: Basic "); mySerial.println(linebuffer); Serial.println(linebuffer); putstringSS("Content-Length: "); mySerial.println(7+strlen(tweet), DEC); putstring("Content-Length: "); Serial.println(7+strlen(tweet), DEC); putstringSS("\nstatus="); mySerial.println(tweet); putstring("\nstatus="); Serial.println(tweet); </code> by the following: <code> // next, the authentication putstringSS_nl("Host: api.supertweet.net"); putstring_nl("Host: api.supertweet.net"); putstringSS("Authorization: Basic "); putstring("Authorization: Basic "); mySerial.println(linebuffer); Serial.println(linebuffer); putstringSS_nl("Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); putstring_nl("Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); putstringSS("Content-Length: "); mySerial.println(7+strlen(tweet), DEC); putstring("Content-Length: "); Serial.println(7+strlen(tweet), DEC); putstringSS("\nstatus="); mySerial.println(tweet); putstring("\nstatus="); Serial.println(tweet); </code> Credits to Meik Mense for the info (<a href="http://groups.google.com/group/supertweet-myapi-proxy/browse_thread/thread/448fc5de115714e/878a4e668845cb55?lnk=gst&q=botanicalls#878a4e668845cb55">found here</a>). Compile and test OK, now you're done with the changes. What you need to do is threefold: <ol> <li>CHANGE the BOARD by going in the Tools > Board menu and choose "Arduino Diecimila or Duemilanove w/ ATMega 168</li> <li>Click the "Verify" button (it's the disk-shaped arrow button).</li> <li>If it doesn't show any errors (you'll get a "Binary Sketch size:..." message), click the "Upload to IO Board" button.</li> <li>If you get an error message during the upload, click the button again, wait for two seconds, then press the "reset" button of the leaf (it worked for me - <a href="http://www.arduino.cc/en/Guide/Troubleshooting#toc1">see here for more info if you experience issues</a>).</li> <li>If the upload is OK (no errors), click the "Serial Monitor" button. Wait for a while, the leaf initializes and then it will print "Botanicalls v2.15c". If there is no "c" at the end, then it didn't upload the new firmware correctly :(.</li> <li>Open Twitter and go to your Botanicalls account. You should see a new Tweet: "Botanicalls!"</li> </ol> If you get the "Botanicalls!" message above, then it's ok, your leaf is now twittering through Supertweet. You can then unplug your USB cable, the FTDI cable and afterwards plug in your power supply, and your leaf is autonomous again. Troubleshooting If it doesn't work, make sure to check the following: First, press the "test" button, wait for ten-ish seconds, and refresh your twitter page. It should print the moisture level. Apparently, the "Botanicalls!" twitter printout will only work once every day (Twitter spam restrictions), so you need a different message, and the "test" button does just that. <ul> <li>Did you use the Twitter password or the SuperTweet password in your code? (hint: use the SuperTweet password)</li> <li>Did you manage to upload the new code? (test by resetting your leaf and see if it prints "2.15c" in the Serial Monitor</li> <li>Is your SuperTweet account active?</li> </ul> Aftermath Botanicalls devs, I hope you'll update your code soon enough with this info (or base yourself on it), because it's a great project you have here and it would be nice to see it alive again. There are a few more things to do in the code IMHO, I didn't have enough time for that: <ol> <li>Finish the URLencoding: all the "space" characters should be coded with "+" or "%20". It works without it, but it should be corrected.</li> <li>Change the "Botanicalls!" initial tweet so that it shows a random string (Botanicalls!whatever) at every reset. Would be useful for testing.</li> <li>Recode the "twitter" stuff so that it doesn't hardcode the URL in the auth data (will ease portability to other third parties services)</li> </ol> meik76 on "Error Blinks on Yellow Test LED" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=16#post-142 Sun, 24 Oct 2010 14:23:11 +0000 meik76 142@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ Turned out, that an error with 6 blinks ("Bad response on reset") has something to do with the communication with twitter, referring to the change of authentification method.

Definetly good to know BEFORE you reed the customizing information on the website... meik76 on "Arduino + Botanicalls + Leopard connection problem" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=25#post-140 Sun, 24 Oct 2010 12:55:00 +0000 meik76 140@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ I have the same problem. I have the latest driver installed (coming with the arduino.dmg) and using arduino IDE 0021 and a sparkfun ftdi 3.3v. As long as the ftdi is hooked to usb only the ide seems to recognize the usb-port. when I connect the leaf, usb-port disappears in the concerning menu. Any ideas? meik76 on "Error Blinks on Yellow Test LED" http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/topic.php?id=16#post-139 Sat, 23 Oct 2010 22:02:46 +0000 meik76 139@http://www.botanicalls.com/forums/ Hi! Could you explain what is meant by "Bad response on reset"? Is this indicating a soldering issue or could that be a connection error because of the change of the authentification system used by twitter? Thanks for your help.
