[weewx-user] Can Weewx wh23xx retrieve historical data stored on the device?

2017-07-30 Thread electroblu77
Hi There,

Im running...
- Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi
- Using the "wh23xx" driver for Tycon TP2700WC Support (Rebranded Fine 
Offset WH2310)
- Submitting data to Weather Underground
- Using wunderfixer as recommended nightly cron task

My weather station has onboard logging so if the internet is down or my 
Raspberry Pi is turned off for some reason it will still collect and store 
the data.  

When I plug the base station back in after a prolonged absence I notice 
that the data on the base station does not appear to be used to back fill 
for Weather Underground even after manually running "wunderfixer".  The 
records don't appear to be picked up at all.
I notice in the comments for the "wh23xx.py" driver file that the structure 
of the historical records is discussed.

Is the processing of these historical records supported at present?  If 
they are is there something that needs to happen with the config to get it 
to work? 

Thanks

[weewx-user] Does Weewx continue to run if the weather station is unplugged or loses power

2017-07-25 Thread electroblu77
I'm new to the software so have a few queries about it. 

- Running on Raspbian on a Raspberry Pi
- Using the "wh23xx" driver for Tycon TP2700WC Support (Rebranded Fine 
Offset WH2310)

I've installed fine and had the simulator running.  All looks good so far.  

When I reboot my Pi if the weather station is not connected I see the 
following in the syslog

wh23xx: Cannot find USB device with VendorID=0x10c4 ProductID=0x8468

import of driver failed: Unable to find station on USB ()

engine: Unable to load driver: Unable to find station on USB

  Exiting...


I then notice that Weewx is no longer running.  


So my questions...

Does the weather station need to be connected at the time of boot in order 
for Weewx to run?

Will Weewx stop running if I disconnect my weather station at any point?
