Hi Jan-Jaap,
I've just installed your driver. Whats the status now? Right now it neither
seems to backfill data nor store current data from UDP into the database.
Other Question:
@property
def archive_interval(self):
return 60
What purpose does this have and why is it hardcoded to 60? Shouldn't it
read and return
[StdArchive]
# If the station hardware supports data logging then the archive
interval
# will be downloaded from the station. Otherwise, specify it (in
seconds).
archive_interval = 300
from weewx.conf?
