==Problem Statement==

I want to test a temperature / humidity sensor on my porch that will tie into the Raspi datalogger and visualization system. I want to use the EZ430-CC2500 because they are cheap and I have template code written already in MSPGCC. I want to use the DHT22 because I have a couple, and it seems like an affordable solution. It should be powered from a solar panel or other harvested source.

Update: I want to measure the wind speed, and this sensor is already in an ideal location for a 3D printed anemometer. In any case it will make a great testbed.
Update: I want to measure the rain, and this sensor *might* be in an ideal location for a 3D printed tipping bucket gauge. In any case it will make a great testbed.
Update: DHT22 sucks - temp is good but humidity has drifted *WAY* off over the past two years of installation. Replace it with an SHT31?

==System Overview==

EZ430-CC2500 runs an MSP430F2274 and a CC430 chip for a 1mW 2.5Ghz radio, which I am running at 250kbps for short burst speeds and hopefully less packet collisions between various nodes reporting at random intervals.

		+
		+	Wind will be counted with a magnet on the rotor and a reed switch on the stator of a 3D printed anemometer. Sustained wind will be reported as total number of pulses recorded within a 2 minute nonoverlapping interval. Gust will be reported as maximum 3 second period (nonoverlapped 3 second chunks) within the 2 minute window. Data, especially gusts, may be misreported if spread across the non overlapping intervals, maybe my algorithm could use some improvement. Scaling and calibration will be done server side.
		+
		+	Rain will be counted using a magnet on a tipped bucket gauge with a reed switch on the gauge. Total rainfall will be reported as the total number of pulses recorded since power on. Cleared data, and data calibration (volume per dump and collection aperture) will be performed server side.
		+
		+	Data for the reed switches is counted using interrupt GPIOs, and needs filtered to prevent switch bounce from registering as high rate data. A low pass filter was designed with a debounce time of ~35mS and a reset time of ~3mS. Care must be taken not to dump any filter capacitor elements directly into the reed switch as this will cause an overcurrent pulse and damage the contacts.

		+	==SHT31 Library ==
		+	Software I2C library ported badly from Andy4495's Arduino C++ library to MSP430 C.
