The Telemetry Module provides two types of data over the mesh. Device metrics (Battery Level, Voltage, Channel Utilization and Airtime) from your meshtastic device and Environement Metrics from attached I2C sensors.
|
|
|
|
Supported sensors connected to the I2C bus of the device will be automattically detected at startup. Environement Telemetry must be enabled for them to be instrumented and their readings sent over the mesh.
|
|
|
|
The telemetry module config options are: Device Metrics Update Interval, Environment Metrics Update Interval, Environement Telemetry Enabled, Show on Device Screen, and Display Fahrenheit.
|
|
|

## Telemetry Module Config Values
|
|
|
|
## Update Intervals
|
|
|
|
### Device Metrics Update Interval

|
|
|
|
Default is every 5 minutes.
|
|
|
|
### Environment Metrics Update Interval
|
|
|
|
How often we should send Environment(Sensor) Metrics over the mesh.
|
|
|
|
Default is every 5 minutes.
|
|
|
|
## Sensor options
|
|
|
|
### Environment Telemetry Enabled
|
|
|
|
Enable the Environment Telemetry (Sensors)
|
|
|
|
### Show on device screen
|
|
|
|
Show the Telemetry Module on-device display.
|
|
|
|
### Display Fahrenheit
|
|
|
|
The sensor is always read in Celsius, but the user can opt to view the temperature display in Fahrenheit using this setting.
|
|
|
|
Default is off

### RAK 4631 with Environment Sensor
|
|
|
|
Setup of a RAK 4631 with Environment Sensor

|
|
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
|
|
- RAK4631
|
|
- Environment Sensor
|
|
|
|
Steps:
|
|
|
|
- configure the device:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
meshtastic --set telemetry_module_measurement_enabled true --set telemetry_module_screen_enabled true --set telemetry_module_display_farenheit true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
:::tip
|
|
You can change the values above to suit your needs. The commands can be run one at a time or in a group as show above.
|
|
:::
|
|
|
|
- Reboot/reset the device (press the button or unplug/plug in the device)
|
|
- When the device boots it should say "Telemetry" and it may show the sensor data
|
|
- If this does not appear to have any effects, run:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
meshtastic --noproto
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
And examine the serial logs for Telemetry diagnostic information.
