To read the first 1000 history points is fast (few sec) then it more or less stop, and it take forever to read the next 2000 points. Normal?

lauri · May 10, 2021, 10:50am

Yeah, pretty “normal”. I’m having the same. We’re looking for a solution Tagging @io53 @Denis_Andreev

Looks like it do not read history points anymore, any changes there? Tag need to be updated?

Denis_Andreev · June 17, 2021, 7:38am

For me it works as before. With some of the phones it works so slow that it’s almost impossible to sync all the points. I was testing with Pixel 4a and it takes about 15 seconds to sync 2000+ of measurements. But with Huawei P20pro it takes few minutes to sync less than 1000 and then we got timeout.

ptrapnes · August 18, 2021, 11:25am

Could it be an idea that your default sync only the last 1000 points, and you have to select something to get all (or more)

Denis_Andreev · August 18, 2021, 1:51pm

Starting from 1.5.27 sync interval will be equal to graph view period. So if you set to 3 days instead of 10 it will only sync this period. Version with these changes will be released during August.

What is the “Network” in this post? Is it the sensor, the App, or something else?

Ruuvi cloud service for gateway.

Mikko · August 23, 2021, 8:06am

Sorry but I am still lost. Denis’s message on June 15 was about Ruuvi Station Android updates. Can it be used to access a “Ruuvi cloud service for gateway”, whatever it is?

I use my RuuviTags with iOS and Android Apps, and sometimes upload measurement logs via email and Google Drive. I have not seen anything related to “Ruuvi cloud service for gateway” in the Apps.

Please help me further with this.

dgerman · August 23, 2021, 3:19pm

Recently available, the Ruuvi Gateway Is a small device which collects data from Ruuvi Tags (using bluetooth) and uploads it to the RuuviCloud (using your wifi router). The bluetooth receiver is more sensitive than most, for example mobile phones, which effectively increases the range.

Data from the RuuviCLoud is viewable with the normal RuuviStation application and soon will also be available via a web browser.

See https://ruuvi.com/gateway/ for more details

I ordered the early bird Ruuvi Gateway about 2 months ago, still waiting for the delivery. And looking forward to receiving it. Now I have a few spare Android phones in different parts of my home for constant data collection. Hardly an ideal solution.

I had a look at the Apps and could not figure out how to access the Ruuvi Cloud. I found a setting for “Lataa ja tallenna verkkopalvelusta”. I assume this was the Ruuvi Cloud but I found no way to set up the “verkkopalvelu”.

About saving sensor offsets and App settings in the network, what happens if I use several phones to access the RuuviTags…whose offsets and settings are stored in the Ruuvi Cloud?
