Re: [weewx-user] Re: Degrees measurement in exact figures

Andrew has it exactly right. For the difference between LOOP packets (every 2.5 seconds) and archive records (depends on console setting, but in your case, every 10 minutes), see the section *LOOP packets vs archive records

[weewx-user] Re: Degrees measurement in exact figures

If archive_interval is set to 10 minutes, the record generation set in software, when will the weewx request new packets from the console? Every 10 minutes or every 2.5 seconds? ( 2.5 sec is the update interval between console and ISS ) The type of packets will be archive record or loop packet

[weewx-user] Re: Degrees measurement in exact figures

The VP2 archive record only contains the 16 points - so that is what you should get when you select hardware record generation. There was a bug introduced at 3.7 which meant weewx was overriding the hardware value even if hardware was selected. This is what Thomas has corrected if am

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Degrees measurement in exact figures

Fixed in commit 2b5764 . Let me know if this still causes problems. Antonis: While only the file weewx/accum.py was affected, Version 3.4.0 is 2-1/2 years old. Many other things have probably changed since then. You

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Degrees measurement in exact figures

I think I see the problem. It was indeed introduced by the change to extract any extra information out of the accumulators. The problem is that 'wind' is not in the archive record as emitted by the Davis logger, so the accumulator sets to work. Unfortunately, while extracting 'wind', it extracts

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Degrees measurement in exact figures

Indeed I suspect something has changed. The start of my archive has windDir and windGustDir that are all multiples of 22.5. However, the most recent portion of my archive has values all over the place. Maybe Tom might know what changed otherwise it will have to wait until I have free time to

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Degrees measurement in exact figures

Well that is interesting, according to the Davis Serial Communications Reference Manual the archive record format tables on pages 31-33 say that prevailing wind direction (and high wind direction -

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Degrees measurement in exact figures

Archive records generated by Davis hardware use a single byte for wind direction (both windDir and windGustDir) with 4 bits being used to represent 16 points of the compass ie N, NNE, NE etc. Loop packets on the other hand use provide a wind direction in two bytes that provides integer degrees

Try running WeeWX directly from the command line , and see what it prints out for the LOOP packets. What values do you see? -tk On Thu, Aug 9, 2018 at 11:30 AM Antonis Katsonis < nafpaktia.weat...@gmail.com> wrote: > My website uses these

[weewx-user] Re: Degrees measurement in exact figures

which exact bit of weewx software are you referring to?? I just checked my archive database and the winddir and windgustdir for my vp2 all appear to be exact degrees and not 0, 45, 90, 135, 180, 225 …… What values do you have in your archive database, archive table?? On Thursday, 9 August
