Thanks Tom, that did the trick. Some general information on the two text fields: Lightning Frequency is based on number of Lightning Strikes over 5 minute period '' --- 0 Occasional --- 1 to 5 Frequent --- 6 to 30 Continuous --- over 31 Comfort level is based off of the dewpoint.

Please post your weewx.conf sensor map section so we can take a look at what you have. Also, what driver are you using ? There are at least two out there for WeatherFlow that I'm aware of. On Tuesday, August 17, 2021 at 5:29:27 AM UTC-7 pa...@luxthijssen.nl wrote: > Actually no, I had done

Oops. I forgot yet another step! TEXT types cannot use the daily summaries, so they should be left out of the schema for the summaries: day_summaries = [(e[0], 'scalar') for e in table if e[0] not in ('dateTime', 'usUnits', 'interval', 'lightning_frequency',

The accumulator stanza was configured correctly in weewx.conf. Everything works as expected but still have the following error: Aug 17 11:15:24 raspberrypi weewx[8482] ERROR weewx.manager: Replace failed for database weewx.sdb: table archive_day_comfort_level has 9 columns but 5 values were

The problem is that I forgot a step. In weewx.conf, you need to set an appropriate extractor for the string. For example, [Accumulator] [[comfort_level]] accumulator = firstlast extractor = last [[lightning_frequency]] accumulator = firstlast extractor =

2021-08-17 Thread David Sawyer
Hi Simon I have found out the ClimeMET CM2000 is actually a Fine Offset WH1090 so should work if you chose the FineOffset USB driver. I am trying this but still only getting to grips with using WeeWx to be able to say whether this works as expected at the moment. cheers David On Saturday, 14

Actually no, I had done extensive searching beforehand, but none of the "many threads" show any actual progress in this area. And furthermore, none show an example working weewx.conf for the tempest. The only example one can find out there is the one I have in use, and as I stated in my

No, I never said that at all. In fact looking at the driver again it seems I misread and the driver does not get the time initially from the last record in the WeeWX archive but rather it gets a timestamp from the dateTime field in table last_sensor. The last_sensor table appears to be another

thanks gjr80 for your explanations. until now i did not at all understand what the vueiss driver does. if i get you right, what i should try is: seed some plausible database entries. allow me to add a question: how would i do that "manually"? anyway: in a few days i will be away for a couple
