[weewx-user] Try to create a new driver

Hello All, For the past few months I have been playing around at writing a new driver. This week I have decided to change my current driver that uses FileParse (which works ok-ish), to using loop packets, which I believe to be more effient. Using my efforts and borrowing from other drivers I

Re: [weewx-user] Gaps in graphs

1. Yes, just increase the time period to what you want. Set an appropriate aggregation time as well (1 day should work). 2. Assuming that A1 holds the date, and B1 holds the time (as a text string), (A1-DATE(1970,1,1)+TIMEVALUE(B1))*86400 -tk On Thu, Oct 20, 2016 at 2:28 PM, John Masters

Re: [weewx-user] Gaps in graphs

Yay, great work Tom, my graphs are Back. I read on the forum that 10 year graphs are possible with weewx 3.6. When i get my historical data imported, can i just increase the time period in skins.conf up to 10 years? I have 2 columns in an excel file, one is date, one is time. How can i

Re: [weewx-user] Gaps in graphs

You'll have to figure out for yourself the exact times of the data gap. I picked 1470009600 through 1472687700 because they were convenient times and, from eyeballing your graphs, likely to include a data gap. -tk On Thu, Oct 20, 2016 at 12:49 PM, John Masters wrote: >

Re: [weewx-user] Mac or Ubuntu

Either will work, and both have been used successfully. Personally, rather than tie up a nice machine like your Mac, I would invest $50 and get an RPi with a good SD card. Then you get to learn about that ecosystem, as well as weewx. -tk On Thu, Oct 20, 2016 at 12:40 PM, George Fievet

[weewx-user] Mac or Ubuntu

Greetings all. While I not new to the world of weather station hosting, I am new to weewx. I'm currently using WeatherSnoop to serve weather data from my Davis Vantage Vue. I don't have any issues with my setup but I recently learned about weewx and thought it might be fun to play with that.

Do a dump, edit the results, then a load: $ echo ".dump archive" | sqlite3 weewxB4Reinstal.sdb > weewx.sql (edit out the create table and any duplicate data) $ sqlite weewx.sdb < weewx.sql Naturally, make a backup first. It's not strictly necessary to delete out the duplicate data: you'll just

Re: [weewx-user] Gaps in graphs

Hi, John How do you know that the data exists in your database? Try these two commands using the utility sqlite3: select count(outTemp) from archive where dateTime >1470009600 and dateTime <= 1472688000; select count(outTemp) from archive where dateTime >1470009600 and dateTime <= 1472688000

[weewx-user] Re: Please can I have my bug back?

One further thing would be interesting to see if it had any effect - to downgrade the priority of the three cameras by reniceing them to say 10 or maybe renice weewxd to -15 to give weewx higher priority. Not sure if it is weewx which needs the higher priority or something else - and anyway

[weewx-user] Re: Please can I have my bug back?

Hi, Yes, the console has batteries, recently changed, so still pretty strong. Rebooting the pi has no effect on the console. it just sits there and doesn't undergo any kind of reset/reboot/power cycle. I had been wondering if my problem is down to the high usage of the USB/Ethernet channel. I
