Hi,
Modifying a .py can be a risky business, at the very least you open your
self up to losing your changes in the future during an upgrade. Sensor maps
are typically able to be controlled from a config file. Looking at the
WMR9x8 driver you should be able to set the sensor map by using a sensor_map
stanza under [WMR9x8] in weewx.conf. Something like (untested):
# This section is for the Oregon Scientific WMR918/968
[WMR9x8]
....
[[sensor_map]]
outTemp = temperature_1
outHumidity = humidity_1
would remap temperature_1 and humidity_1 to WeeWX fields outTemp and
outHumidity respectively. When starting WeeWX the sensor map is logged by
the driver so changes can be verified by referring to the log (and of
course by what data goes in what fields in your archive!).
