Recording period shorter than programmed

Hello, for the purpose of my study I need to have the AudioMoths start at a specific date a couple of days after I place them. I understand that this will be implemented in a future update, but unfortunately I do not have the time to wait for that one. I'm therefore trying to hardcode the starting date into the firmware. I'm currently trying to make it so that when the default switch is triggered it will wait for the set date and then start recording. However, it just starts recording normally. I suspect it has something to do with the configured start date of the recorder (1970) but I'm not sure. If someone would point out where my code is going wrong I would greatly appreciate it! PS: when I try to flash the firmware it always crashes once, then I have to restart it in boot mode, after which it does work. Is there a fix for this? Here is my piece of code: if (switchPosition != *previousSwitchPosition) { if (switchPosition == AM_SWITCH_DEFAULT) { time_t current_time; struct tm * timeinfo; /* These are the values of my planned recording time */ int target_year = 2019, target_month = 12, target_day = 12; int target_hour = 14, target_minute = 50, target_second = 0; /* Get the current time */ time ( &current_time ); timeinfo = localtime(&current_time); timeinfo->tm_year = target_year; timeinfo->tm_mon = target_month; timeinfo->tm_mday = target_day; timeinfo->tm_hour = target_hour; timeinfo->tm_min = target_minute; timeinfo->tm_sec = target_second; /*This converts it to something that difftime can work with */ time_t scheduled_time = mktime ( timeinfo ); *timeOfNextRecording = current_time + difftime(scheduled_time, current_time ); *durationOfNextRecording = 60; } else { /* Determine starting time and duration of next recording */ scheduleRecording(currentTime, timeOfNextRecording, durationOfNextRecording); } } Kind regards, Yannick

Is there any way getting the audiomoth in an automatic triggering status to record bats or even a specific bat species? I read about the British Bat project where part of that seemed to be the case. I would like use the automatic triggering to test battery life / find out about suitability for surveying bat migration in Special Protection Areas, where the device should be left alone during the breeding season as well as to compare the 'moth' with other devices used in the survey. Thanks, Patrick

Hi, I've just received my audiomoth, but can't download the config app. I get the following response when clicking the download link: This site can’t provide a secure connection github-production-release-asset-2e65be.s3.amazonaws.com sent an invalid response. Can anyone look into this? Thanks
