Hey! I am really glad I found you guys and thank you hydrosys4 founder/creator for your great work!
I am playing around before installing hydrosys4 to my almond field and I would like to ask if:
- there is a way of either getting a photo each day by mail (tried to change the controllercmd of default mailcontrol to photo but didn't work)
- or is any other way of creating a timelapse without logging in each day and download a photo through WebCam Setting test.
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
- yes, it is possible to get picture by email every day, once you have set the email, go to setting, in the webcam setting, check the box with activate daily photo. If you change something on the hardwarecontrol, better to reload a preset config)
- yes, it is possible to create a time lapse, see this post:
- In case you can access to the SD card or through SSH to the raspberry, the pictures are stored in the folder /env/autonoom/static/hydropicture/
Thanks a lot,
I just set the webcam time 2 minutes before the mail1 Daily mail time and works like a charm!
There is no need to set the address in the hardwaresetting, the picture with the report will be sent to the email address set in the eMAIL section.
Thank your for your answer,
Should I enter the email on the "address" cell in HardwareSetting page in "photo" line or the image will be sent each day alongside with the "eMail item: mail1" mail+info+link?
