Mac access to SD content

Post by Alexis T »

Dear all,
I used Meteobridge Nano SD since almost 10 months.
I'm looking today to :
- export monthly data to my Mac : today I couldn't find the way to access from my Mac to the SD Card through the local Wifi network.
- send this data also automatically by mail every month : I don't know if this is possible, and if it is, how to set the service settings for mail.

Thanks by advance for your support and help, and have a great 2022 year !

Meanwhile I've found how to access to SD card from Mac : just in finder go to connect to server and introduce smb:// followed by local adress of Meteobridge.

I still look to send automatically by mail export file generated by Meteobridge. Is this possible ?

Thanks by advance,

Yes.

First make sure your Email Service Settings test Email is working. Now these settings will depend on your email/ISP provider so no one configuration suits all. What you can try is

Authentication: none
SMTP Host: Here you need the SMTP Host for your email address, ISP/provider specific
User: Come up with some sort of user name name here
To-Addr: email address being sent to
Port: 25 (normally but can/will be ISP/email system specific)
Password: for this config leave blank
From-Addr: Some identifying sender email, I use something like noreply-MBProxx@anyemail.com.xx etc

Click [Test Email] and if all is well you should see a response above the Events/Service settings tabs like "Test email has been sent without any reported errors" If all is well there should be a Green tick beside Authentication: on the Service Settings page and you should check your email. Email will be from the From-Addr you used, Subject will be Meteobridge, body of email will be no further content...

When you get that working, we will move forward.

Access to the folders with your Mac is easy. You simply have to choose the Finders "Connect to Server" option and tell the Meteobridge IP:

Bildschirmfoto 2022-01-08 um 17.50.27.png (20.25 KiB) Viewed 834 times
Then you can connect as guest (if you enabled guest access on "System - Administration" tab of your Meteobridge) or as user "meteobridge" and the given password.

Many thanks. Acess SD card succeed.

I'm still looking how to send mail, and then how I can send data export. If somebody knows the answer, it would be great. I didn't succeed to find the right parameters.
