The first requirement for plotting observation data from a driver/station is that the data to be plotted must be saved to database, simply put if it's not in the database you cannot plot it. Following on from this requirement is that WeeWX will only save a field to database if (1) the field

I'm really not an expert, but I thought packets sent to CWOP were the same, except for their station ID (and passcode). At least, you're showing up in the findu database: https://www.findu.com/cgi-bin/raw.cgi?call=Dl1ben-13 Now that I look at it, the last 3 packets contain altimeter. Value is

I am using a Vantage Pro 2, and I had forgotten (if I ever knew!) that the solar radiation value had a slower update rate than most other weather values, but it is certainly another reason not to worry about processing every LOOP value separately. You could even argue that (for this hardware)

Ah, I didn't know that CWOP relies on altimeter, not pressure. Precipitation winds are missing because I don't have any sensors for it. All data that is collected (which is temperature, humidity, air pressure, air pressure @ sea level, dew point) does actually get into WeeWX. I can see it on

Re: [weewx-user] Sunshine Database

2022-06-05 Thread Jacques Terrettaz
I think it is also OK to do an average for every 30 seconds. It depends also on the weather station used. For instance, a Davis Vantage Pro 2 ISS transmits an updated solar radiation value every 50 to 60 seconds. So with this weather station, even a 1 minute average would not be very

2022-06-05 Thread Tom Keffer
NB: CWOP requires *altimeter*. WeeWX needs station pressure (observation type "pressure") plus altitude to calculate it. It looks like altimeter is not the only thing you're missing. Precipitation and wind are also missing, which suggests are more general problem. I would look at the path data

Exactly. That's the big advantage of assigning a type to a unit group. All the formatting and conversion machinery becomes available. On Sun, Jun 5, 2022 at 8:45 AM 'Peter Fletcher' via weewx-user < weewx-user@googlegroups.com> wrote: > Thanks! > I assume that this works 'out of the box'

I chose to average the LOOP radiation readings and only to do the threshold calculation and make the sun/no sun determination every 30 seconds because I thought doing it on every LOOP might overload LOOP processing (I am running weewx on a Pi 3B, which is also doing a few other things which use

Thanks! I assume that this works 'out of the box' because I have defined the unit for sunshine time as 'minute' (rather than something like 'sun_minute') and weewx already 'knows' how to convert between common units of time. For my solar production example, you would presumably need to use the
