Glenn

Thanks for the detailed information very informative

If and when i do any upgrade i have something to fall back on


I know if we never upgraded we would still be using DOS or win 3.1 but 
sometimes its a headache

thanks again

[weewx-user] Re: OWFS & PI4

[vigilancewx]

OK I figured it out with your help something wrong with python-ow 3-xxx

get a clean install with regards to 1 wire ie python-ow

the idea is to install python-ow2.9

download the deb packages

i copied them to my /var/cache/apt/archives/partia/ 
dont know if that matters

and installed them

works fine now


sudo dpkg -i 
/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/libusb-0.1-4_0.1.12-25_armhf.deb

sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/owfs-common_2.9p8-6_all.deb

sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/libow-2.9-8__2.9p8-6_armhf.deb

sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/partial/python-ow_2.9p8-6_armhf.deb

sudo /home/weewx/bin/wee_extension --install weewx-owfs-0.21.tgz

[vigilancewx]

I have used OWFS service for a few years and its worked flawlessly

I am trying to get it to work on a new PI4 but i cant get to read any 
sensors


I have followed the owfs service installation guide as in the past




pi@raspberrypi:~/Myideas $ sudo PYTHONPATH=/home/weewx/bin python 
/home/weewx/bin/user/owfs.py --sensors
Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ow/__init__.py", line 221, in init
raise exNoController
ow.exNoController

Previously i  think the only time i have had the above error is when i have 
forgotten to plug the dalas adapter in to a USB port

it appears the service cant read my usb port

from the syslog file

[weewx-user] Re: sds011 install

[vigilancewx]

Hi

When you run the wee_config --reconfigure


it lists the normal question about weewx but no reference to the new sds011 
setup

so a couple more questions please 

I know my sds011 is connected tn port USB02 so do I need to modify 
sds011.py ?

will it now create the pm.sdb in the weewx archive folder ?

also the service section under the weewx engine is not modified what do I 
need to add here?


thanks for the information

[weewx-user] sds011 install

[vigilancewx]

 

Hi 

I am trying to install the sds011 service 

Installation

 

0) Install weeWX (see weewx.com for details)

 

1) Download the SDS011 extension

 

wget -O weewx-sds011.zip 
*https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-sds011/archive/master.zip* 


 

2) Install the extension

 

wee_extension --install weewx-sds011.zip

 

3) Configure the driver

 

wee_config --reconfigure

 

4) start weewx

 

sudo /etc/init.d/weewx start

 

followed the above all it seems to do is install the install.py to

 

user/installer/sds011 directory

 

 

 

and sds011.py to the bin/user directory

 

adding this to the Weewx.conf

 

 

#

 

# Options for extension 'sds011'

[SDS011]

 

##

 

Do I make the install.py executable and run it

 

How do I complete the install

 

Thanks for any information

[weewx-user] forecast data shown in template

[vigilancewx]

 

Hello

 

In the forecast database UKMO displays a UV valve

How can I display that in template?

 

I know how to save additional data to the Weewx database and can display it 
in a template, but the forecast data is in a separate database how do I 
display data stored here in say the index template

 

 

 

 

Thankyou for any help

[weewx-user] Re: Unit conversion options

[vigilancewx]

Thank you for the informative reply

i suppose the solution is to add 9/5 +32 to my parsing extension to log the 
reading as F'

one thing that iam not sure is why i cannot alter the readings under

[StdCalibrate]

[[Corrections]]
# For each type, an arbitrary calibration expression can be given.
# It should be in the units defined in the StdConvert section.
# Example:
foo = foo + 0.2


cctemp = cctemp *1.8

extraTemp7 = extraTemp7 + 10

the cctemp is logged with my extension ok i will modify it
but the extraTemp7 is logged with the 1wire extension that 's freely 
available from weewx


trying to add 10 to extraTemp7  has no effect on what is displayed on the 
html pages

strange?

[weewx-user] Unit conversion options

[vigilancewx]

hi

I normally run weewx with a vantage and a few 1 wire sensors

standardreport units are set to metric

but the target units in weewx.conf set to US
   # DO NOT MODIFY THIS VALUE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
target_unit = US# Options are 'US', 'METRICWX', or 'METRIC'



all temperatures and other readings displayed on the html pages as they 
should be

I have tried to create my own extension to read my electricity meter and it 
should work (this version is in simulator mode just now) 

the current sensor collects the power and temp readings to a txt file and 
my extension imports it in to weewx.sdb
the imported power readings are in watts however the temperature is in C'

Checking the weewxsdb all the temp readings are stored in F and then 
displayed on the html pages in C'

this particular reading cctemp is being parsed and stored in weewx.sdb as 
deg C so when its shown on the html pages its incorrect  

i have tried to convert it back to 'C under stdcalibrate/corrections but it 
has no effect?


is it possible to display this temperature back to 'C

Unit conversion options 

The tag optional_unit_conversion can be used with either current 
observations or aggregations. If supplied, the results will be converted to 
the specified units. For example, if you have set group_pressure to inches 
of mercury (inHg), then the tag 

Today's average pressure=$day.barometer.avg 

would normally give a result such as

Today's average pressure=30.05 inHg 

However, if you add mbar to the end, 

$day.barometer.avg.mbar 

then the results will be in millibars:


i have tried to convert with the above but unsure how to implement it

Thanks for your input Andrew

your additional comments have removed the indentation errors but for some 
reason weewx.sbd has stopped being populated by pond.py and the modified

[weewx-user] Pond.py multi senor watt and temp

[vigilancewx]

 

Hello


I have a current cost electricity meter connect to a linux computer via a 
usb cable

On the linux computer is a script that every 20seconds loggs the watt and 
temp readings from the current cost meter to a txt file and RRD file


I can generate the RRD graphs into the weewx public_html directory and 
display them accrodingly


I know that weewx is predominatly for displaying weather data but I would 
like weewx to handle the watt data, so I have tried to save the readings 
into the weewx.sdb 


I found this version of pond.py from the weewx user groups and it works 
with no errors



Following advice given in the weewx help files I can now display the data 
in the various html files display graphs etc


I have one problem, pond.py takes the readings from the first line in the 
txt file (readings.txt)


how do I modify pond.py to take its readings from the last line of the txt 
file, because file the last line of my txt file holds the latest data


thank you for any help

[weewx-user] Re: Forecast and icons

[vigilancewx]

I have found this on an older post

cp -rp skins/forecast/icons skins/Standard

i had already tried to copy the icons to an icons sub folder of Standard
 as that is where the icons  reside in an older version of weewx

i only use the cp command i will try with the above txt see what happens

[weewx-user] Forecast and icons

[vigilancewx]

 

Hi


on a new 3.8 installation


I have installed the forecast extension and it works fine in its default 
installation folder


I have changed my skin.conf to no generatre the single-strip.html file in 
my public_html folder


the file it is generating has all the temps etc also the colours and 
correct fonts but no icons


where do I create a link so the single-strip.html file has link to the 
icons when it is generated into the public_html folder


I did try to create a button with a link to the default forecast folder to 
get around the problem but apache seems to prevent the link from opening


the only folder apache will allow access to is my public_html hence the 
reason I am trying to get the file generated

in the public folder


thanks for any advice

[weewx-user] Importing database weewx 2.6 into weewx 3.8

[vigilancewx]

 

Hi

I have a pi running weewx 2.6 with about 3 years worth of data taken from 
my Vantage station


I have recently installed weewx 3.8.0 on a shuttle pc running in simulator 
mode. I also installed using the wee extention utility the forcast and cmon 
sevices and owfss


The Pi has 4 extra 1 wire senors that I added to weewx 2.6


How do I import the database from weewx 2.6 into weewx 3.8. 

I have added the 4 extraTemp readings manually then 


wee_database weewx.conf –reconfiguremv 

weewx.sdb_new weewx.sdb


How do I import the database from weewx 2.6 into weewx 3.8. 


I have 2 databases  1 formed by the schemas/wview.py in weewx 3.8

and the other formed by the database and schema used in weewx 2.6


can it be done?


thanks for any advice

[weewx-user] Re: Xtide forecasting units US/Metric

[vigilancewx]

 

Hi


If understand this correctly this snippet from my weex.conf


[[forecast]]

HTML_ROOT = public_html/forecast

skin = forecast


will create an index file in the folder public_html/forecast

and use the skn from the forecast directory


Uncomment here or override in weewx.conf to display other units

#[Units]

# [[Groups]]

group_altitude = meter

group_degree_day = degree_C_day

group_pressure = mbar

group_radiation = watt_per_meter_squared

group_rain = mm

group_rainrate = mm_per_hour

group_speed = meter_per_second

group_speed2 = meter_per_second2

group_temperature = degree_C



my standard skin also has the following

[Units]

# This section is for managing the selection and formatting of units.

[[Groups]]

# For each group of measurements, this section sets what units to

# use for it.

# NB: The unit is always in the singular. I.e., 'mile_per_hour',

# NOT 'miles_per_hour'


group_altitude = meter # Options are 'foot' or 'meter'

group_degree_day = degree_c_day # Options are 'degree_F_day' or 
'degree_C_day'

group_direction = degree_compass

group_moisture = centibar

group_percent = percent

group_pressure = mbar # Options are 'inHg', 'mmHg', 'mbar', or 'hPa'

group_radiation = watt_per_meter_squared

group_rain = mm # Options are 'inch', 'cm', or 'mm'

group_rainrate = mm_per_hour # Options are 'inch_per_hour', 'cm_per_hour', 
or 'mm_per_hour'

group_speed = mile_per_hour # Options are 'mile_per_hour', 'km_per_hour', 
'knot', or 'meter_per_second'

group_speed2 = mile_per_hour2 # Options are 'mile_per_hour2', 
'km_per_hour2', 'knot2', or 'meter_per_second2'

group_temperature = degree_c # Options are 'degree_F' or 'degree_C'

group_uv = uv_index

group_volt = volt


# The following are used internally and should not be changed:

group_count = count

group_interval = minute

group_time = unix_epoch

group_elapsed = second


[[StringFormats]]




and finally in my weewx.conf



[[StandardReport]]

# See the customizing guide to change the units, plot types and line

# colors, modify the fonts, display additional sensor data, and other

# customizations. Many of those changes can be made here by overriding

# parameters, or by modifying templates within the skin itself.

# The StandardReport uses the 'Standard' skin, which contains the

# images, templates and plots for the report.

skin = Standard

[[[Units]]]

Groups

group_altitude = meter

group_speed2 = meter_per_second2

group_pressure = mbar

group_rain = mm

group_rainrate = mm_per_hour

group_temperature = degree_C

group_degree_day = degree_C_day

group_speed = meter_per_second

[[cmon]]

HTML_ROOT = public_html/cmon

skin = cmon



so I believe I have it configure correctly to display metric units in my 
forecast html




so i am unsure why i get feet and deg F in my forecast index_html

[weewx-user] Xtide forecasting units US/Metric

[vigilancewx]

 

Hi


I have install weewx 3.8


I am running it in simulator mode while testing 


The graphs and temps that are shown within the public_html directory are in 
metric units as per weewx.conf


I have instaled xtide and when testing it from the command line interface 
the HI low tides are shown in meters


I have installed the forecast module with an API from the UK metoffice and 
WU


the forecasts displayed (weather and tides ) in the index.html with the 
public_html/forcecast/ directory are shown in US units


do I need to configure the forecast.py or skin to enable the metric units


weewx is showning the correct metric units

the forcast extension is shown US units??


thanks for any help

[weewx-user] Re: 2.6 going to 3.8 and wee_extension

[vigilancewx]

Hi

Yes its a little drastic

But several hours worth of customizing something else may be problematic

Originally i had installed the latest weewx 3.8 using the new automated 
installation package but i was unfamiliar with the new directory structure 
so i un-installed it and used to older setup method

something maybe crossed linked

upon reinstalling everything is working ok (so far) :-)

thanks for your help

[weewx-user] Weather station autistic child

[vigilancewx]

 

Hi

I know this maybe slightly off topic but I am after a little bit of advice

I have been a member of this group for a few years and have all ways found 
it to be very helpful and courteous

I am looking to buy a weather station for my niece who is slightly 
autistic, and has developed an interest in weather and collecting data.

My weather station is a Davis unit connected to a pi and logged with Weewx.  


That is not what she would like. She would rather collect the data manually 
and log it daily. 

Now there are a numerous different weather stations out there.  I am 
looking for any advice what to buy. 

It will be kept at her local school so something that is reasonable accurate

I did think of a wireless Davis unit and base station with no software, but 
with the UV sensors its quite expensive

 

Does anybody have any advice? 

 

Thanks in advance
