  34. The RS1D, RS3D, RS4D and RS&BOOM have the same capabilities for detecting Earth motion in the vertical dimension. The RS3D replicates these abilities in the horizontal dimensions, providing the user with a fuller view of earth motion in all 3 dimensions. The difference between the RS1D and the RS4D is that the RS4D has a 3 dimensional accelerometer built into the board. This is interesting for people who live in earthquake zones where the strong motion might be enough to saturate the vertical sensor. With the accelerometer, the Earth motion would remain on scale with the added benefit of being able to detect lateral motion as well.

  55.  
  56. Timing Quality (NTP)
  57. ---------------------
  58. In all Raspberry Shake products, data packet time stamps are done using Network Timing Protocol (NTP) time. Timing quality is +/- 10 ms for all products. To give you an idea what this means, consider an earthquake's P-wave traveling at a very fast 6000 m/s. With an uncertainty of +/- 10 ms, this translates into a location uncertainty of only +/- 60 meters. For lower P-wave velocities, the uncertainties diminish. This uncertainty is well within a reasonable margin of error for locating earthquakes.

  65.  
  66. RPi's supported
  67. ------------------
  68.  
  69. Any Ethernet- or Wifi-capable Raspberry Pi (RPi) computer can, theoretically, be supported. The only information we need to support an old or new model of the RPi is the serial port where data is read from, where the basic rule is for some specific models the tty port is named /dev/ttyS0 (e.g., Revisions 9000c1 and 920093) and for all others (as a catch-all condition) the tty name is /dev/ttyAMA0.
  70.  
  71. There is a physical limitation: with the exception of the RS1D, all Raspberry Shake boards have 4 mounting holes. This means that the older Model B which has 2 diagonally positioned mounting holes, is not supported. The Model A+ is also not "technically" supported for this same reason, but all of the software does run on it. You can find Raspberry Shake model-specific information below.  
  72.  
  73. The **Raspberry Shake RS1D** supported modules:
  74.  
  75.         000[d,e]: Model B, Revisions 000[2-9] & 000f lack mounting holes are not supported
  76.  
  77.         00[10,13],900032: Model B+
  78.  
  79.         a[01040,01041,21041,22042]: 2 Model B
  80.  
  81.         9000[92,93],9200[92,93]: Zero
  82.  
  83.         a[02082,22082,32082,52082]: 3 Model B
  84.  
  85.         a020d3: 3 Model B+
  86.  
  87.         9000c1: Zero W(H)
  88.  
  89. The **Raspberry Shake RS3D, RS4D and RJAM** supported modules:
  90.  
  91.         00[10,13],900032: Model B+
  92.  
  93.         a[01040,01041,21041,22042]: 2 Model B
  94.        
  95.         a[02082,22082,32082,52082]: 3 Model B
  96.  
  97.         a020d3: 3 Model B+
  98.  
  99.         Due to the form factor of the Model B (2 mounting holes diagonally-positioned), the Model B is not supported.
  100.  
  101. The **RBOOM** and **RS&BOOM"** supported modules:
  102.  
  103.         00[10,13],900032: Model B+
  104.  
  105.         a[01040,01041,21041,22042]: 2 Model B
  106.  
  107.         9000[92,93],9200[92,93]: Zero
  108.        
  109.         a[02082,22082,32082,52082]: 3 Model B
  110.  
  111.         a020d3: 3 Model B+
  112.  
  113.         9000c1: Zero W(H)
  114.  
  115.         Due to the form factor of the Model B (2 mounting holes diagonally-positioned), the Model B is not supported.
  116.

  128. All Raspberry Shake boards ("hats") sit on pins 01 through 26. So GPIOs and grounds on pins 27 to 40 are easily available to endusers for other applications. The Raspberry Shake does not, however, use all of the pins from 01 to 26. The following pins are used:
  129.  
  130.  - 02,04: 5v
  131.  - 06,09,14,20,25: Ground
  132.  - 08,10: Tx/Rx
  133.  - 15: RESET
  134.  - 17: 3.3v
  135.  
  136. All other pins are available for use. Some have specific functions such as pins 27 and 28, but the others can all be used for general purpose or their specific functions.
  137.  
  138. .. note:: The header on the Raspberry Pi computer is the same for the Model B+, 2 Model B, 3 Model B(+), Zero, Zero W(H).

  141. IP67 M12 connector specifications
  142. -----------------------------------
  143.  
  144. See :download:`Raspberry Shake IP67 M12 Connectors<docs/connectors_M12_IP67.pdf>`
  145.  
  146. RJAM-specific: see: :ref:`rjamConn`.
  147.  
  148. .. note:: If you are planning to use a longer cable than we provide, be sure to calculate the wire gauge needed in order to minimize any loss of voltage. The RPi requires 5.1 V at 2.5 Amps to boot properly.
