So with one bucket tip - Loop reports. 109.245 for rain_total, and .039999 rain_Rate.
The console reports .01 inches of rain. When I look at the web output, I also see .01 inches of rain and a rain rate of .04 inches /hour (and the metric version reports .03 mm of rain with a rain rate of 1mm/hr) On Wednesday, August 24, 2016 at 9:16:19 AM UTC-3, mwall wrote: > > kit, > > the acurite 5in1 hardware reports 0.01" of rain for each bucket tip. > > the acurite driver puts all observations into the METRIC unit system, so > it multiplies each tip by 0.0254 to get centimeters. > > try running weewx directly - it should spit out a LOOP packet every 18 > seconds. every other LOOP packet should report a value for rain_total and > rain. each REC should contain a field 'rain' with the amount of rain in > that REC interval. the LOOP and REC data will be in the unit system of > your database (US by default). > > with weewx running, tip the rain bucket once. see what comes through in > the next LOOP and compare that to what you see on the console. > > m > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
