Hi
My SR1 receives BAS and HVS-1 and my TBS6903 receives HVS-2 and works
perfectly.. all from one line in from dish.
regards
Philip

David,
I RTFM at the section you said: 4.5.2 but I could not find the answer to my questions.
What I want to know it is possible receive both BAS and HVS-1 or HVS-2 or TER-1in the same time and on the
Same Dish. If not wrong I need a dual output LN. One output to RF1 and the other to RF2.
Is it correct?

I have tried to swap the actual cable, that I use on RF1 for Bas Services on RF2 but the LED does
Not switch to green. Maybe I need to set the RF2 port.
Is it correct?

Please can you confirm my questions to clear my mind?
Thanks

Yes, one dish handles both BAS, HVS-1 and HVS-2.

Either: dual output and two receivers

Or: single output and a dual receiver such as the TBS6903.

Ayecka SR1 receivers only take either BAS/HVS-1 or HVS-2. I've not used an SR1 for both BAS and HVS-1 so that information needs to be checked. Only RF1 is activated for EUMETCast.

Ciao,
David

Hello All,
Please I would like to know if it is possible to receive both BAS and

I am currently only getting the BAS. Please if it is possible what I
need to receive also the HVS-1????
Any help will be really appreciated

Hi Folks,

I am still struggling to get all running properly without success.

Please I do not know if I am making the connections to the right way.

I have connected the SR1 to the Dish but I cannot remember if I also need the Network connection.

Unfortunately I do not have the possibility to connect the SR1 to the Router as it is in  another

room. I have also an USB LAN adapter that I do not know if I can use it. I Have tried to connect it through an USB port and the SR1 but I do not understand how to  set it properly.

Actually I have installed on the PC the EKU and tellicast softwares but when I run the BAS service I get the icon on the tray fixed to yellow an d it would not turn white.

Please any advices???

Thanks

Hi Ernst,

Thank you very much for your answer, I wasted 99$ !!!

Could you please recommend another model ?

Youssef Bennouna

years ago, I asked Eumetsat for an ARM version of the Tellicast software and got a negative reply, but they said they would consider it. Now ARM is absolutely mainstream, with Apple adopting the architecture for their machines, so there is some hope. A RPI4 has more cpu power than Ernst's oldtimer PCs and if somebody would make use of the GPU for some processing it could really shine. IO is the weak point, but an external 1TB USB3 SSD (80€) will be good enough for most purposes.

@Ferdinand Yes, all done on the RPI 4. It’s amazing. And we should take in mind that the Pytroll/Satpy package is made for scientific computing and not optimized for low power machines like a Raspberry Pi 4.  

@Rob Yes, Tellicast doesn’t provide an ARM client. 

Interesting to get the data via internet. Btu O think get it vi satellite is more sportive.

I run two Linux receivers and did a quick connect of the Pi to one of the receivers via cifs (samba). Works nice. Files are read direct from the receiver disk. I compiled the Wavelet decompression software on the ARM, runs flawless - the scripts from Ernst use this compiled version. 

You could speed up the processing if you do the Wavelet decompression on the receiver, even uncompressing the .bz2?!

I would choose the 8GB version if some think about buying a new PI4 … or search for a 64bit secondhand computer to dive into Pytroll.

Christian, how do you get the data? Tellicast doesn't work on ARM processors,as far as I know, so you need to use a "normal" PC for receiving, I assume? And you need ARM compiled Wavelet decompression software too, for MSG.

Hi PyTROLL/SatPy Starter Kit users,

 

just for info: I installed the PyTROLL/SatPy Starter Kit V3.0 today successfully on a Raspberry Pi 4, 4GB RAM on MicroSD card. 

I had to solve some minor problems, but I’m amazed what is possible, even with the 4GB version. MSG4, Him8 and GOES16 full disk works, even MSG4 eurol area. I even could do a stacked NOAA-20 picture, all in around 3-5min per image.

S3A/B is not possible at the moment with 4GB ram. Maybe you have to install the system on an USB HD and activate swap to solve this issue or you switch to the 8GB RAM version. 

You really get a tiny little satellite image processor in combination with the PyTROLL/SatPy Starter Kit V3.0. 

I hope some native English speaker give the PyTROLL/SatPy Starter Kit V3.0 a try and we maybe will read something in next GEO Quaterly…? 

 

Regards,

 

Christian

Daniele,

what 'area' do you want to display?
Do you have the GOES16 files you are asking for?
Enable satpy debugging as described in the HOWTO!
