Greetings all, I have to give the obligatory noob alert, so thank you in
advance for patience and help.
Ill start with my end goal:
I would like my RPi to receive my WS 2902 sensor values as CSV, TXT,
anything really. These values will be used to determine if/when GPIO's can
be triggered. It is highly preferable to be able to bypass any actual
uploading to the internet. I see that it may possible from the intake
strategies
<https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/intake-strategies#configuration-6-driver-for-network-connected-data-source-using-local-api-sniffing-or-hijacking>
section
of the weeWX GitHub.
On to my problem:
I installed weeWX following this installation guide
<http://landoflinux.com/linux_raspberry_pi_weather_station.html>. I get all
the way down to "Checking connectivity to your weather station" but then it
fails with "Timed out too many times" continuously. I have attached
a snippet of my user.log and my weewx.conf files.
Guidance for end goal:
Once I see weeWX working I can focus on my desired intake strategy (unless
its just as easy to do at the same time). What do I need to achieve my
goal? Aside from what I have installed from the installation guide, I
essentially have whatever comes with Debian stretch. Ive seen mentions of
iptables but I'm not really sure what that involves. I am using an Arris
TG1682G (aka XB3, from Comcast). But I also have a spare Linksys WRT54G
with DD-WRT on it. The WRT would ultimately be the desired router to use.
I should mention, I have gotten the Ambient Weather API
<https://ambientweather.docs.apiary.io/#reference/ambient-realtime-api> to
work, I can receive my sensor values and save them into a txt file. If it
is possible to cut out the internet connection that would be neat.
Thank you again for the help!
Daniel
