Hi everyone,
I have been mobile streaming
for events and for Soundcamp (as TUMP53 chorus) but new to setting up a
more permanent offgrid-WI-FI stream, and generally unfamiliar with all
things PI, so excuse the simple questions in bold if you can bear to
read on, this is updated from the last one that I don't think was posted to the list.
Working
out a streambox solar powered to install in a nature reserve (an open
area surrounded by trees) in the UK to which only I have access but is a
couple of miles from my home, so once installed just needs to run and
be checked regularly on condition. The solar panel stands will be
mounted on a pallet on wheels with a dri-box attached which will contain
the equipment, and the mics will be sticking from that (although need to work out the distance). Have Primo EM272 mics Omni module, Stereo with 3.5mm plug, to plug directly into the Codec?
Other equipment so far: Raspberry Pi 0 WF (PI will ultimately power directly into the 5V usb Solar controller)
/ IQ-Codec Zero / Mini SD /
100w eco solar panel / Lithium iron battery 12V 18AH / Solar charge controller.
(double insulation copper wire for connections, will need more waterproofing)
Teltonika 240 WI-FI Router have a mini usb to Ethernet to plug into the PI -
Tektonika has 9v plug no USB so do I need to get an Inverter as well to power it?
12 month WI-FI SIM contract to get v aoon - Would 50mb per month be ok if
potentially on all the time? Sounds like unlimited better, if that is the case would
2mb per second be ok or 10mb per second for audio streaming?
I am planning to set up the software PI / Codec with the streambox (Streambox unstable
version 4.0-dev
or the 3 stable version?), then connect it to the router and check
with the mic if the stream works, then move onto powering it all with the set-up above, then
transfer to the reserve, am I missing anything here?
Any help is very much appreciated.
