Re: [weewx-development] Supporting Columbia Weather Systems MicroServer hardware?

Hi Bill, Yeah, from looking at the Columbia Weather offerings, it seems all (or at least most) of their products are just rebranded units. For example, taking a closer look I can see that *all* of their weather station hardware is from other manufactures. Lufft, Vaisala, Texas, etc. The thing

Hello Matthew, I went ahead and started with the IP100 driver as a guide as after all the suggestions, there really wasn't a better one to start with. Before even asking, I'd looked through the source of a number of drivers but found that none of the drivers that ship with WeeWX use XML as an i

bill, i would suggest that you start with weewx3 and python2, and use the ip100 driver as a guide. it is trivial to update the ip100 to python3/weewx4 compatibility and by the time you are ready for that, weewx4 should be out of beta, so your upgrade path will be painless (i would do the ip10

The best way to have wee_import calculate interval is really dependent on the underlying WU data and at times the reliability of WU. There are three ways that wee_import calculates interval; firstly by the simple difference in timestamps between successive records, by use of a fixed number defin
