[weewx-user] How to show Rain only when there is rain

I want to show the rain only when there is rain. I tried #if $day.rain.has_data #end if But that does not seem to work in the skins/Standard/index.php.tmpl file. I always get the blank rain png. PS I am now using 3.7 and it seems to work OK so far. -- You received this message because

I happen to like the sparkfun stuff, turns out they have an nrf24 based radio/controller on a single board. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13990 On Monday, 30 January 2017 12:52:06 UTC-5, Bill Morrow wrote: > > I have a BMP180 for barometric pressure and a si7021 for temperature and > humidi

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

Thanks for the info guys. When we move to our property we plan to homestead on I can see using these guys to create a whole network of sensors and other things throughout the property to keep track of a whole host of things, not just weather. I guess with these and a very low power version of

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

I have a BMP180 for barometric pressure and a si7021 for temperature and humidity connected to I2C on the Arduino Pro mini. The Arduino uses a nrf24L01 radio

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

Hi! Robert, for low power radio please see https://www.mysensors.org/ - framework based on arduino/raspberry pi and cheap radio NRF24L01 or RFM69. I'm using it for more than 2 years now and it's very reliable (NFR24L01 + MQTT gateway). On web site you will find a lot of ready to use examples wi

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

I'm interested in the MQTT standard, didn't really know anything about it, but may migrate to that idea and skip the phant server step altogether, but using the fileparse extention with the jsonp query of the phant server just made things simple for me. As for the lower power radios I did consi

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

Very nice. I considered flower pots for the radiation shield also, but then that wouldn't align with your snowflake theory, would it? I like both Sparkfun and Adafruit's ecosystem. Phant looks interesting. I'm reading temperature and humidity in the house using an Adafruit Feather Huzzah publis

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

Hey Bill, no problem. I can't provide pictures right now but will when I get home. I'm using an 8000 mAh battery I got from ebay (I may upgrade to a 12000 mAh), that is connected to an Adafruit Solar Lipo charger. I also bought a 6 volt solar panel from ebay or amazon, can't remember right no

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

Robert, can you share any details on the solar powered Redboard? My weather station is based on an Arduino Pro Mini, powered by an old Li-ion camera battery. The weather station sleeps most of the time, waking up briefly every 10 seconds or so to sample weather. I get about 2 weeks out of the b

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

Seems like raspberry pi systems are like snowflakes...lol. I use a solar panel charged battery powered Particle P1 Redboard from Sparkfun that I have an I2C BME280 (temp/pressure/humidity/altitude) sensor, a rain/wind set from sparkfun as well. The redboard sends weather data over WiFi to my

Re: [weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

Ah, I stand corrected, thanks Tom. I believe I got that misconception from the old driver I copied to start work on mine. Also, I'm running weewx 3.2. Long past time I updated. On Monday, 30 January 2017 09:26:27 UTC-4, Tom Keffer wrote: > > >> 2. The requirement for US units is because of weewx

[weewx-user] Re: A few newbie questions - web server and file system location

Another option for a lightweight webserver is lighttpd. nginx is more prevalent, but personally I found lighttpd easier to understand. At first, anyway. In another thread, I just learned about the new MSD boot mode

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

"Pi3 MSD boot" Very interesting, and completely applicable to uses like weewx which are I/O intensive. I run weewx on a "real" computer, but have been thinking about switching to a Pi. My MQTT broker on the same LAN is on a Pi. 1. The only driver I have installed is wxMesh, and weewx works f

Can you be more specific? How frequently are the archive records being saved? Ids the issue with the creation of the html pages, the .png image files, the ftp of the data to a remote site, or in the browser viewing the html/png files?? what exactly hap[pens every hour, and/or every 5 minutes?

[weewx-user] Re: attaching a raspberry Pi weather station to the weewx system

Hi Bill Many thanks for the pointer to your github account. I have decided to start with a completely new build. I am using a Raspberry Pi 3, and a USB hard drive. I have set the PI up to boot from the USB drive completely, using the new Pi3 MSD boot protocol, ie. no SD card is used.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: engine: Unable to load driver: (5, 'Input/output error')

So I said to help with it. I reinstalled lubuntu. And did the weewx install. Everything went perfect like the old laptop. The only thing I can not figure out is how to get the webpage to update every 5 min like before. I set the archive interval to 300 sec, but is only updating every hour. Ideas
