Stuart... a serious question here... Will all of that, especially the
MESH system, work after a big EMI pulse type incident? If not, what
would be the fallback plan?
The local boys set up a similar system, if not the same, and they were
really proud of it - they got it up and running quickly and it worked
and allowed the transmitters to be scattered all over the property -
some nearly a quarter mile apart, while maintaining a single real time
logging database.
My only objection to their setup was that the wireless nodes were sorta
vulnerable, standing out in the weather on tripods, with gel type
batteries for power, and it was all sorta exposed to the weather, and
where the marauding children or the killer bees could easily get at
them. (Although under a "first-things-first" approach, I suppose they
can worry more about security next year, having proved the system works
this year...)
Thanks.
