kiwi cluster
Hi James, looks cool
But be careful, heatsink on BB-AI fixed only on sticky thermal interface and I'm not sure how it will behave over time (about year) on high temp...
You add lever arm to it. Maybe you know about FlexRadio 6400/6600 problem when similar heatsink installed vertical goes down under the influence of time and gravity. -
Not Updating anymore. [fixed, package system problem]
You can build it manualy on SSH console connection.
For first time try use ./up script:
- connect to KiwiSDR console via SSH (you can use Putty for Windows) with debian user
> sudo su (type debian password again)
> cdp
> ./up
and wait about 40 min for build current version
if problems didnt goes you can build KiwiSDR software from Github and then copy config from old version... look this post for fix serious problems: http://forum.kiwisdr.com/discussion/comment/8480#Comment_8480 -
BBG and some PSU problem
Hello friends,
As you probably know know, for normal start BBG board need fast +5V voltage rise from PSU, if you use powerful transformer PSU you can have problem with autostart KiwiSDR after power outage.
Info from https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/beagleboard/aXv6An1xfqI[151-175]: "The BBG uses the TPS65217 power management IC. Per the data sheet, it will not turn on if the applied power has a ramp of greater than 50 mSec."
I have this problem with one of my PSU's, when BBG don't start after power lost and I installed device with 10s delay for allow power from PSU and it was very helpful for me:

Maybe this info was halpfull for something else.
