Arduino code problems (need some help)

Hello everyone.

I'm trying to integrate my Arduino Uno code with publishing code provided in this site.
Currently I'm able to successfully read CPM values from analog geiger counter. But Arduino compiler gives me an error when trying to compile code snippet provided by this site (download section).
Line: "IPAdress server 80.229.27.195); // RADMON.ORG IP, CHECK THIS" gives me error "too many decimal points in number".
Any ideas what's wrong?
Maybe someone can share code sample working with ethernet shield?

Could it be IPAddress needs 2 'd's, the missing '(' or the use of commas vs. decimals? I don't understand the last bit but that's what the snippet shows.

It's got to be how the number is declared. There must be an appropriate datatype for an IP address?
This might give some clues:

You did it! Good work; we see you now on the map.
Do you actually get such high CPM values? I don't know much about your detector, but the Youtube videos I found for the RKSB-104 seem to show two SBM-20 tubes, and a background between 10-30 CPM (judging only by the slow click rate and accumulation on the display - it seems to be a dosimeter not a level meter, but has many options). Your detector may be different, and I assume the Arduino is counting the pulses over fixed time intervals to calculate CPM and send to Radlog.
Welcome and thanks for contributing.

Hello everyone,

It seems my station is finally fully working :) .
I can only guess the reason for the high CPM values. Perhaps this is due to the fact that the meter has two SBM-20 tubes.
The relationship between the number of tubes and the CPM value is likely to be non-linear (?). Colleague "dolphin" records similar CPM values in his station with three SBM-19 tubes.

I still need to try to clarify the conversion factors. Current seems accurate enough at low CPM. What do you use for testing the high CPM?
