[weewx-user] Re: HP 1000 and UV-Index

2018-03-13 Thread RothMa
Hello Susan,
Thanks for the answer. I am experimenting with the "StdCalibrate" section 
in the weewx.conf.
A comparison of the reported values with the UV index according to the 
console showed the following:
0 = uv <= 100 uW / cm²
1 = uv> 100 uW / cm² <= 450 uW / cm²
2 = uv> 450 uW / cm² <= 900 uW / cm²
3 = uv> 900 uW / cm² <1350uW / cm²
So I entered the formula UV = (UV - 100) / 450 + 1 in the Calibrate section.
But I will also test it with UV = UV / 256.
At the latest in the summer I will have found out, if then the values with 
the values in the Conole agree.

Many Thanks
Martin

In my HP1000 weewx driver, I use the formula (in Python)
int(round(data_value)/256)
where data_value is the value I read directly from the device itself.
The resulting values seem to match those displayed on the console itself.

Hello Vince,

Thanks for the answer. I think it's not easy to convert. In your link, I 
read, "The index is equal to the EAS-weighted irradiance (in watts / m²) x 
40. An index of 10 corresponds to an EAS-weighted irradiance of 0.25 W / 
m², but if I convert my values this does not fit the index on the display 
of the station.
At least I think it's easier to adjust the charts and live with the 
reported values ...

Some quick googling seems to say it might be a little complicated, but I 
did find one Davis link that might help...
Does

help any ?
