Hi Aleksandar,
I know it is a long time since you posted your driver, but I have to try.
First of all thank you for the driver.
I also try to integrate the airmar 150wx into weewx but have my
difficulties, therefore I wanted to ask if I only have to integrate the
driver ("airmar_0.28.py") in weewx or do I have to modifiy other files to
get all data out of the 150wx?
For the moment I have the WX running and it gives me temperature,
barometer, winddirection and rel. wind speed. But all the other data are
missing.
Of course anyone else is invited to answer ;-)
Thank you in advance and best regards,
Dennis
P.S. I hope, that I didn't miss any information, if so, just let me know
