hi alex, the interceptor driver has had basic support for the gw1000u (that is the bridge device for the C84612 station) since early this year. https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-interceptor sorry about the paucity of documentation, but please ask - that will help me prioritize what to write. currently it receives data from the station every 12-15 minutes or so. we're trying to get the station and gateway to send data at a faster interval. apparently there used to be an interface a lacrosse alerts to make this change, but now that option is gone. we have figured out that there are at least two kinds of data packets coming from the station - current weather conditions, and historical data. that makes sense, since the station is basically the same as the ws28xx. current conditions have been decoded, but historical data has not yet (if someone wants to compare data from a gw1000u with data from a ws28xx, it should be a pretty easy deciphering exercise). would you be able to do some network sniffing? we could use a few more captures of the registration process (when you first connect the station to the network), as well as the initialization process (when you first power on a registered gw1000u). fwiw, the lacrosse hardware is at least an order of magnitude more complicated than any other hardware in its class. it has been fascinating to see the differences in engineering skill, design, and philosophy across hardware vendors, system integrators, and service providers. m ps thanks to skyspy, kennkong, and lowerpower for publishing their work. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
