Re: [weewx-user] Re: New to weewx, AW WS-2000

Yes, I was able to view the live data page but it only shows the sensors directly attached to the GW1000 so I figure it is getting too much RF interference to pick up my T (WH-31?) and THP (WH-32B) sensors. I still haven't decided where to mount the main sensor array from the WS-2000...I really

Way back in 2014 (wow) when we had that long thread about this, many of us checked our hundreds of backups with 'pragma integrity_check' and never found any that were not restorable, so I'm pretty ok with taking that risk still. On Monday, January 11, 2021 at 5:26:08 PM UTC-8 Tom Keffer wrote:

Re: [weewx-user] Independent weewx backup script

I actually think 'cp' is pretty safe. When WeeWX writes a record to the database, it has to update the main archive, as well as many daily summaries. To make sure this is all done atomicallly, it does it as one big transaction. So, unless your 'cp' has the unfortunate timing of happening at the

Re: [weewx-user] Re: New to weewx, AW WS-2000

Whether the GW1000 picks up your sensors or not, you can very simply verify by choosing your GW1000 from the WSView Device list. One entry will read GW1000-WIFI. That's the one to press. As a result you will see the live data of the connected sensors. Am 11. Januar 2021, um 16:45, schrieb

If you're concerned about the distance to the airport, you can take your console to the airport --- it's battery powered. In addition to my Vantage, I have a precision barometer that I use for sailing (±0.25 hPa precision). I've calibrated it against the Portland airport, which is very close to

Yes, I used ws view on Android from the Play Store. After a little while the app asked if I wanted to update the firmware to 1.6.3 and I did. That seemed to work fine. The GW1000 is joined to my network but I don't think it is picking up any sensors yet. On Sun, Jan 10, 2021, 11:16 PM Bill
