I set up weewx following the instructions at this site <http://landoflinux.com/linux_raspberry_pi_weather_station.html>. I also set up a Cumulus template for use. Overall everything went well and is great but I am missing historical/almanac data in the realtime.txt file (e.g. historical rainfall is all 0.0) and hence on the templates and in the weewx html files. I have an Ambient Weather WS-1001 and am using the Interceptor/HP1000 approach as provided in the instructions. The code initially ran on a Pi B 2+ but is now on a Pi Zero W with the same results. With Debug=1 in weewx.conf after I restart weewx I see entries in the log such as > > Mar 20 12:56:54 Pi0W weewx[9727]: engine: Loading service >> weewx.engine.StdReport > > Mar 20 12:56:54 Pi0W weewx[9727]: engine: Finished loading service >> weewx.engine.StdReport > > Mar 20 12:56:54 Pi0W weewx[9727]: engine: Starting up weewx version 3.9.1 > > Mar 20 12:56:54 Pi0W weewx[9727]: engine: Station does not support reading >> the time > > Mar 20 12:57:10 Pi0W weewx[9727]: HP1000: Connected to address >> ('10.0.1.101', 50769) > > Mar 20 12:57:11 Pi0W weewx[9727]: HP1000: Established contact at 20/03/19 >> 12:57:11 > > Mar 20 12:57:11 Pi0W weewx[9727]: HP1000: Retrieving startup records > > Mar 20 12:57:26 Pi0W weewx[9727]: engine: Starting main packet loop. > > Mar 20 13:00:16 Pi0W weewx[9727]: manager: Added record 2019-03-20 >> 13:00:00 CDT (1553104800) to database 'weewx.sdb' > > Mar 20 13:00:16 Pi0W weewx[9727]: manager: Added record 2019-03-20 >> 13:00:00 CDT (1553104800) to daily summary in 'weewx.sdb' > > After those 3 HP1000 messages are logged no further messages are logged from the driver.
I saw on the GitHub for the driver a mention of retrieving archive type records and it looks like it might be trying because there is a long delay between the log message about "Retrieving startup records" and the next message but nothing is making it in. I believe my station does report this data on a continuous basis (e.g. it is set to upload my data to the dashboard at api.ambientweather.net and I can download the data in JSON format via API calls). I tried reading through the HP1000 code but could really tell how it was supposed to work nor do I know if the WS-1001 supports querying for 'archived' info. Any advice would be appreciated.
