[weewx-user] Re: WS-1001 connection to Raspberry PI for Weewx
The broadcast mask needs to match the way your subnet is defined. You originally had the subnet responding to the bottom octet of the IP address only but then expanded it to the bottom 2 octets. Therefore the broadcast message would have only gone to a small part of your expanded network. Having said that, you also said the WS-1001 was at 192.168.0.197 and that should have responded to the original broadcast address, but I readily admit that I only have a rudimentary understanding of these things and there could well be some 'magic' that is applied in the router to block broadcast messages that don't fly match the network mask. Anyway - I'm glad it is all back and working for you. Susan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

That appears the be the problem. Using 192.168.255.255 and it found the correct address for the station. Now it's updating the database. Should take awhile.

I did change the network mask from 255.255.255.0 to 255.255.0.0. Should I use a broadcast mask of 192.168.255.255 for HP1000?

[weewx-user] Re: WS-1001 connection to Raspberry PI for Weewx
Have you changed any settings on the router? What I'm thinking is that it is not letting through the broadcast packets. If that is the case, then all I can suggest in the short term is to do what I suggested in my first post and edit the Python code to simply try to connect directly to the IP address. (I'll add that to the "wishlist' for the next version of the driver, just after making sure that it works with Python 3 and the latest WeeWx code! Of course that is all after 'getting some time for all this playing'!) Susan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

Do you know the IP address of the weather station console? Can you ping it? Susan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

I uninstalled and reinstalled weewx, along with interceptor, crt and HP1000. Here's the section in the weewx.conf file with comments removed. [HP1000] ip_address_mask = "192.168.0.255" retry_count = 5 socket_timeout = 5 loop_delay = 15 max_retry = 3 retry_wait = 5 driver = user.HP1000 The section from user.log: The ws-1001 is at static IP addr 192.168.0.197. Pinging that addr shows something is there.

[weewx-user] Re: WS-1001 connection to Raspberry PI for Weewx
In the weewx.conf file, you can uncomment the 'ip_address_mask' line and set it to whatever is the correct address mask for your network. The HP1000 code must be running on a computer that is on the same network sub-net as the weather console. Setting the 'ip_address_mask' overrides the automatic selection of the computers IP address as the default. Failing that,if you know Python, then go into the HP1000.py code and remove the stat of the 'connectToWeatherStation' function and set 'self.ws_socket' to be an open connection to the remote IP address.
