Re: [AFMUG] [WISPA Members] how would you bill this? Voip question

2017-08-30 Thread Faisal Imtiaz
For many(good reasons, Tax, reporting etc) we would break this down as 
follows:- 

1) Application server (Phone/pbx functionality) (hosted applications are not 
subject to taxes). $50/MRC 

2) Inbound Trunk w/ 1000 mou each. $19/each MRC (inbound calling min, multiple 
trunks would allow for concurrent calls etc), allows us to size the system 
(This is a telecom service, so it would be subject to Telecom Taxes, if 
applicable in your State, but not subject to USF ) 

3) Outbound mou $8MRC/1000min ...(Local & US LD, would allow for outbound 
calls)... (This is a telecom service, would be subject to Telecom Taxes, if 
applicable as well as USF . 

Doing it for Free ? Call me whatever you like, in all the years of serving in 
business what we have learned is that , doing anything for free has ZERO value 
in the eyes of the receiver, and it is never remembered if ever there is 
opportunity to have that taken into consideration. Do it for Full value and 
feel free to apply a visible discount on the bill...but the figures and the 
line item description of the discount should reflect that on the invoice ... 

Keep in mind, if you decide to do it for free, you will still be obligated to 
collect and pay the applicable taxes ! 

Best of luck !

Re: [AFMUG] OT Home Battery Array, Generator and Solar Readiness

2017-08-30 Thread Zach Underwood
1 watt of lead battery does not equal 1 watt of lithium ion. With lead acid
you can only take them to about 40-50% depth of discharge but with the
lithium ion you can get like 80-90% depth of discharge. Also the number of
discharge is only like 1000-3000 cycles where with lithium it can be as
high as 9000 cycles. The number of cycles is less of a problem in a grid
connected back up only but if off grid solar then with lead you would have
to replace every 2-3 years where with lithium it could be every 5-10 years.
When I was looking into solar this year the 10 year cost of lithium was
cheaper then lead.

 Seems difficult to adjust magnet nuts in the center of the array as
 they would be under the mounting plate, right?

 We followed the Magnemount design and took a typical 5'x5' non-pen and
 drilled holes in it and put
 a lot of magnets on it. The magnets had pretty long bolts on them so we
 used that to adjust each
 magnet so it would still sit flat on a curved surface.

 It's been holding a 2ft dish just fine for a couple years now.

[AFMUG] how would you bill this? Voip question

2017-08-30 Thread CBB - Jay Fuller

I've received an inquiry to setup an automated attendant for a growing 
non-profit in our area.  They take care of the vets.
There basically is no office, just a network of volunteers.

I may not charge them anything but assuming this were a for-profit of a similar 
type, how would you bill this?

Thanks for calling XYZ Vet Services

For Veteran Services and Assessments, press 1
For events and volunteer services, press 2
To schedule the pickup of donations, press 3
To schedule the transportation for a vet, press 4
For grants, funding, or charitable giving, press 5
For Ordering merchandise, press 6
To reach management, press 9

Once hitting 9 there is - 

For the chief of operations, press 1
for the company financial manager, press 2
for the company executive officer, press 3
for the company project manager, press 4
for hte company general contractor, press 5


This is the script given to me by them.  I wish I could say I made it up :)

Each menu option transfers to a different cell phone.

I can set this up in our voip switch, no problem - but how would you bill it?

Not even sure there are any "real" phones here, just transfers to cellphones

Thanks.

Re: [AFMUG] Magnets on a warm summer day

I have not yet added up all the nuts bolts and washers but it will come in at a

You just order it with the pull you need and I will add the magnets.  A 250 lb

Re: [AFMUG] Cost effective battery charging and monitoring device

2017-08-30 Thread George Skorup
I would be very happy to have a 20A 100mv shunt in your DIN package. The 
Traco BCMU360 is only rated for 240W continuous. 240/12 = 20A. I will 
typically only load them up with no more than 220-225W, since I'm using 
Mean Well SDR-240-48's, so I still need 10-15 watts for battery 
charging. If I have a site that outgrows 220W, then I'm gonna be looking 
at a rectifier shelf like the ICT 1U modular that has all the bells and 
whistles.


On 8/30/2017 3:16 PM, Forrest Christian (List Account) wrote:
The challenge with higher current shunts is how much power is 
dissipated by the shunt.  A 20A shunt at maximum will dissipate 
(waste) around 2 watts.  I know this doesn't sound like a lot, but 
when you're talking a tiny device on a circuit board, it is.


I've recently redesigned the shunts and currently have a couple under 
test.   The new shunt has a connector suitable for over 10A (the old 
was rated for 12), and am hopeful that I can get 20A to work, but the 
first try didn't go so well, unless you like melted mounting hardware. 
 (The good news is the shunt electronics survived just fine).  I've 
changed resistive elements and plan on using them for 10A and 20A 
models but am waiting for everything to come in to test in the next 
day or two.   If you've got a 10A shunt order on backorder with us 
this is why.


The other thing I continue to mention is that shunts above 10A are 
relatively easy to come by or as Chuck points out, make.   (Google 20A 
100mV as an example of buy).   I know they're not on a din track - and 
I'm aware of the form factor desire to have them on the DIN rail

Then if the power glitches I would like to seamlessly run off a battery

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Cost effective battery charging and monitoring device

Most of these should work, as someone has pointed out, you should be able to 
use a voltage divider to get it down to the range...   If you put a 204 ohm 
resistor across the shunt input and 10K ohms in series with the shunt that 
should scale 5V down to 0.1V.   If you need other ranges, see 
http://www.ohmslawcalculator.com/voltage-divider-calculator .  I'd start with 
10,000 ohms in the R1 field and 0.1V on the output voltage. 

The other challenge is that most hall effect sensors are relatively low 
accuracy, say 5%.   Calibration seems to help, but isn't really applicable in 
this case.   Add the uncertainty of the divider and you may not have the 
accuacy you want.

Remember that the shunt input is only a 10 bit ADC, which means you only have 
1024 steps.  So for a 100A input, each 'step' would be 0.1A.   Just be aware of 
this.

Re: [AFMUG] DC Generators?

2017-08-30 Thread Chuck McCown
I think they are alternators, that rectify the output then feed it into an 
inverter.  So AC-DC-AC

True DC generators are not seen much.  

Alternators have slip rings which last far longer than commutators.

Aren't all "inverter generators" technically DC generators in the first place? 
They have to run whatever they produce through an inverter in order to produce 
110, or 220 AC.

I would poke into one to see what feeds into the inverter in the first place.

Re: [AFMUG] Cost effective battery charging and monitoring device

2017-08-30 Thread Forrest Christian (List Account)
Most of these should work, as someone has pointed out, you should be able
to use a voltage divider to get it down to the range...   If you put a 204
ohm resistor across the shunt input and 10K ohms in series with the shunt
that should scale 5V down to 0.1V.   If you need other ranges, see
http://www.ohmslawcalculator.com/voltage-divider-calculator .  I'd start
with 10,000 ohms in the R1 field and 0.1V on the output voltage.

The other challenge is that most hall effect sensors are relatively low
accuracy, say 5%.   Calibration seems to help, but isn't really applicable
in this case.   Add the uncertainty of the divider and you may not have the
accuacy you want.

Remember that the shunt input is only a 10 bit ADC, which means you only
have 1024 steps.  So for a 100A input, each 'step' would be 0.1A.   Just be
aware of this.

Re: [AFMUG] Cost effective battery charging and monitoring device

2017-08-30 Thread Forrest Christian (List Account)
The challenge with higher current shunts is how much power is dissipated by
the shunt.  A 20A shunt at maximum will dissipate (waste) around 2 watts.
I know this doesn't sound like a lot, but when you're talking a tiny device
on a circuit board, it is.

I've recently redesigned the shunts and currently have a couple under test.
  The new shunt has a connector suitable for over 10A (the old was rated
for 12), and am hopeful that I can get 20A to work, but the first try
didn't go so well, unless you like melted mounting hardware.  (The good
news is the shunt electronics survived just fine).  I've changed resistive
elements and plan on using them for 10A and 20A models but am waiting for
everything to come in to test in the next day or two.   If you've got a 10A
shunt order on backorder with us this is why.

The other thing I continue to mention is that shunts above 10A are
relatively easy to come by or as Chuck points out, make.   (Google 20A
100mV as an example of buy).   I know they're not on a din track - and I'm
aware of the form factor desire to have them on the DIN rail

Look at the maximum current that will pass through the shunt, and then buy
one just larger than that.   For instance, if your charger can charge at
15A you need a 20A shunt.

Re: [AFMUG] DC Generators?

2017-08-30 Thread Chuck McCown
Pretty easy to make DC out of AC.  A true DC generator probably has brushes and 
a commutator.  Not something you really want.  
I imagine anything you are likely to find is probably AC that is rectified.

Re: [AFMUG] Cost effective battery charging and monitoring device

2017-08-30 Thread Chuck McCown
V out = Vin x [R1/(R1+R2)]

So you are giving it 5 volts full scale and you need .1 volt to represent full 
scale.

V out/ V in = .1/5 or .02

Pick a R1.  Normally telemetry inputs are pretty high impedance like 100K or 1M 
so the divider resistance can use 1K as one of the resistances.

So if R1=1K then 1k/.02 = 1K + R2
50K=1K + R2
So R2=49K.

Voltage in through the 49K resistor in series with the 1K resistor then to 
ground.

The telemetry would be fed from the junction between the two resistors and 
ground.

No, we'll probably keep using the 180 for really short links, but we really 
don't use that many as it is. I'm not really sure how often we'll end up using 
the 190, but I'm thinking it will be something like if we get less than -60 use 
a Force 200, otherwise, use a 190 or a 180.

The neat thing about the Force 190 is that it comes in the same size box as the

[AFMUG] open source netflow tool?

2017-08-30 Thread Dev
I’m looking for an open source way to analyze netflow and traffic flow 
(Mikrotik’s version), what are you guys using/happy with? Super nice if it 
provided historical information via RRD/mrtg so I can keep track of issues.

Would these work on a SiteMonitor? They output 1-5V DC based on
current flowing through.

This assumes you can go positive or negative with the telemetry input.  

If not, then you have to shunt the charger and the load separately.

2 feet of #10 wire is your shunt.  
You can even coil it up and make it nice and small.  

Put it on the ground side of your battery.

Re: [AFMUG] Cost effective battery charging and monitoring device

2017-08-30 Thread Chuck McCown
What is your max charging and discharging current?  That is the first thing.  
Second thing is what is the voltage range of the device you are using to 
measure the current.  

For example, if you never expect more than 50 amps and your telemetry will 
measure 0-1 volt on the analog input, then your shunt needs to be less than 
1/50 or .020 ohms.  So when 50 amps is flowing, there will be 1 volt across it. 
 

That is equivalent to 20 feet of #10 wire.  

You don’t want to use a 10 volt input because if 50 amps is creating 10 volts 
across the shunt, not only do you lose 10 volts with which to power your load, 
the shunt is going to crank out 500 watts of heat under full load.  The lower 
the shunt resistance the better because shunt voltage is subtracted from the 
voltage used to power your equipment and no need to make any more heat than you 
need.

However very low resistance shunts make very low voltages and analog telemetry 
inputs may have digitization errors and noise errors with really low inputs.  
Normally battery current is not so critical that those errors are a concern.

The neat thing about the Force 190 is that it comes in the same size box as

it puts out so many millivolts depending on how many amps are moving

Hey all, 
I am getting away from using APC at a couple of our sites and right now I have 
installed a Tripp-Lite APS750 connected to 4 Deep cycle marine batteries for a 
total of 404 aH system. I'd like to be able to monitor the discharge rate of 
the batteries when power is out remotely. What have you guys been doing to that 
effect?

I'm thinking a Pi and a shunt and some quick scripting classes on Python to put 
it all together...

Re: [AFMUG] Netonix + GIGEPOE ?

2017-08-30 Thread Chuck McCown
Yes.  The pairs on the GIGE-POE are 1/2 3/6 4/5 7/8

You must set the jumpers so that 1/2 and 4/5 are sending power to one of the 
terminals and 3/6 and 7/8 are sending the power to the other terminal.  It is 
possible to short out the line if the jumpers are set wrong.

Subject: [AFMUG] Netonix + GIGEPOE ?

Hey Everyone / Chuck, 

I have a Netonix switch and want to verify that the GIGEPOE can be used to 
extract power from it.
Netonix Specs say:
48VH 1.5A pins 1,2,4,5(+) 3,6,7,8(-)

Are the + - lines compatable with the GIGEPOE? I thought it would be but it let 
the magic smoke out of a GIGEPOE. When I let the magic smoke out I did _not_ 
have anything connected to the power terminal nor data jack on the GIGEPOE. I 
have a second but wanted to check with you to make sure this would work 
properly.

Re: [AFMUG] contract verbage for site lease that covers all the bands

2017-08-30 Thread Mark Radabaugh

We use this fairly often:

Interference:Lessor grants to Amplex exclusive right to use the Premises 
for the broadcast of radio signals in the frequency ranges of 2400 to 
2500Mhz, 3550-3700Mhz and 5150-5825Mhz bands.Amplex may use other 
frequency bands at the site for which Amplex holds FCC licensees, or 
which are available for unlicensed use on a non-exclusive basis.


Sometimes we add "all unlicensed frequencies" instead of listing them 
specifically, or sometimes "Lessor grants Amplex right of first refusal 
on all other frequencies".

I am signing a site lease agreement but in this case, I want to make 
sure that nobody else uses any spectrum, aka, all of it, that might 
interfere.  Does anyone have an addendum for that?
