Hello, This is my first post, so I'd like to start by expressing a' thank you' for the efforts put into weewx - I've been using it for a few years and it's been as "solid as a rock".
After several years of lethargy, I finally got round to updating to the latest version and I have a few questions (hope it's OK to bundle these into a single post!). Firstly, as a preamble, the station. It's nothing too clever, a cheap Fineoffset type, with the addition of a networked Raspberry Pi to measure UV (digital & analogue), Illumination (likewise) and temperature. It also has a Pi camera looking at the sky (well, why not?). I also use this camera btw to take a time-lapse of the night sky. So, my questions : 1. I set my station type (WEA22) in weewx.conf as 'model = WEA22'. However, $station.hardware in the .tmpl file seems to return 'FineOffSetUSB'. Have I missed something? 2. It seems have started returning 'true' for $current.ET.has_data, together with some values. I don't understand this and I wonder if some guidance could be offered on how to track down where it originates? I've 'solved' these problems by hard coding the .tmpl files, but obviously that's not ideal. 3. I needed a new group (illuminance) with a value 'lux' and symbol 'lx'. I put the relevant additions into units.py. Obviously, I'll have to remember this if (and when) I next update. So my question is whether it's possible to add a new group via the .conf files without tinkering with the core files?
