Thanks for the replies. I've tried the instructions provided at the link
from Andrew and it is still not pairing (at least I assume it is not
pairing because I do not see "PC" in the LCD screen of my weather station
like I do when it is running on my Windows PC.
I've run the command *sudo /etc/init.d/weewx stop* to stop running weewx
(assuming it is running).
Then I run the following and get the results below:
pi@weewx:~ $ wee_device --pair
Using configuration file /etc/weewx/weewx.conf
Using WS28xx driver version 0.35 (weewx.drivers.ws28xx)
Traceback (most recent call last):

I hope somebody can help me decipher this so I can move on the
synchronization.
