using a GMC-300 for a project detector?
(Message 2382)
Posted 3709 days ago by Valter Hi, everyone! Again, I am facing difficulties in attaching my GMC-300e to Radioactive@home. =( Everything was OK when, all of a sudden, trickles stopped to be sent. I received an email indicating that I should check if my sensor was disconnected and, a few hours later, it was excluded from the map. First I checked if the sensor was connected to the computer, and I found it is. The software that came with the sensor can receive data from GMC-300e normally. Then I started aborting WUs and getting new ones, and noticed that the BOINC manager showed progress 0.000% for all Radioactive WUs, and didn't move at all. Apparently they also never ended (I have aborted some of them after some hours). I then reset Radioactive@home at the BOINC manager, with no results. Later, I removed Radioactive, re-attached, re-installed the application, installed the latest version of the BOINC manager, re-started the computer and got new WUs. Now WUs show progress and go to an end, but no trickles are sent. BOINC manager event logs show no attempt to send the trickles. Now I am changing the sensor from one USB port to another to see if I find one that works. Until now, no results. You can see below in this thread that I had problems to get GMC-300e and the Quake Catcher sensor working on the same computer. This had been solved well before. Also, for information, on the same day trickles stopped to be sent, I changed my WiFi router (the old one had crashed). Now I have a D-Link DIR-905L. I wonder if something in the router configuration could have caused trickles to stop being sent (it was installed just before the problems started). I tried to check configuration settings, but could find nothing (I am a non-technical person, by the way). Can anyone give a hint? Many thanks, Valter. |

Posted 3740 days ago by Valter Well, it seems to have been solved. Following Fabio's remarks in this same thread, I have changed the positions of the USB terminals of both the GMC-300 and the quake sensor at the back of my computer. Some experiment was required and, after some trials, the four terminals are now: [] printer [] quake [] GMC-300 [] external HD It is now working properly. Thank you for all your help and patience. Valter. |

Posted 3745 days ago by Valter Hi, Fabio, TJM and everyone. Made further tests, but no results. I still have to run Radioactive on one computer and QCN on another one. I also have WUProp@home running here. Could it be that three non-CPU-intensive tasks are causing one (Radioactive) not to work properly? Thanks, Valter. |

Posted 3750 days ago by Valter Hello, it's really weird. What operating system do you have? I use windows vista, no windows 7 because of the problems I had. Have you tried changing the Warrior sensor port of Quake Network? Hi, thanks. I have Windows XP. And sorry for the ignorance but... what is a Warrior sensor port and how can I change it? |

Here, everytime I start QCN, Radioactive WUs end up with computing error. Something in my system, perhaps? |

Posted 3751 days ago by Valter Hi, everyone! I have just found out that here Radioactive WUs go wrong only when Quake-Catcher Network is running. Apparently the presence of two sensors (GMC-300E and the quake sensor) causes problems to Radioactive WUs. TJM, can it be true? If there is nothing to be done, I will run Radioactive on one computer and QCN on another one. Thanks again. |

Posted 3751 days ago by Valter Many thanks, TJM. I have disabled various projects, kept only one CPU WU working and closed my too many Firefox windows which remain always open. It worked. The Radioactive WU has finished just fine. I will now keep on testing and will inform of results. Thanks again, Valter. |

Posted 3752 days ago by Valter Sensor 10458 - As far as I understand, result outputs are OK. |

Posted 3752 days ago by Valter =( OK. The second WU showed the same computing error. Do you think that I should then try to limit CPU use? To how much %? |
