Hi Paul,
My old system uses the Interceptor and 3.x but with the advent of 4.1 I
built a new server and also changed to the GW1000 driver since it
captures more of the data from the 1000 than the Interceptor does. I've
imported some of the data from the old db to the new db to check that
yearly summaries etc. are ok.
3.x has an old schema that would need to be extended to archive the new
data. 4.x has an extended schema so it becomes a simple matter to map
the Ecowitt fields, from the GW1000 driver, to the weewx db for any data
type that doesn't have a direct match.
Example , in my weewx.con file, I have this stanza...
[GW1000]
driver = user.gw1000
ip_address = 172.20.1.16
port = 45000
poll_interval = 30
[[field_map_extensions]]
lightning_distance = lightningdist
lightning_disturber_count = lightningdettime
batteryStatus1 = wh41_ch1_batt
batteryStatus2 = wh57_batt
batteryStatus3 = wh51_ch1_batt
batteryStatus4 = wh51_ch2_batt
batteryStatus5 = wh51_ch3_batt
batteryStatus6 = wh51_ch4_batt
Weewx fields on the left, Ecowitt on the right
Interestingly my moisture sensors are not returning a battery level.
PM2.5 and soil moisture get mapped directly so extra no config required
for that
In my Belchertown skin, graphs.conf file, I graph soil moisture thus...
[[chart7]]
title = Garden Soil Moisture
type = spline
[[[soilMoist1]]]
name = Vege Patch
[[[soilMoist2]]]
name = Central Garden
[[[soilMoist3]]]
name = East Garden
[[[soilMoist4]]]
name = West Garden
I haven't made graphs for the battery status as yet.
FYI... The Extended schema can be found here...

cheers

Hi I'm a bit new to this and have similar setup except like your
originally did Andy without a DP1500 (GW1000) gateway just using the
HP2551 with weewx-interceptor in ecowitt-client mode. I've got a
lightning detector (wh57), pm2.5 detector (wh41) also soil moisture
detector. From the syslogs I can see some incomeing values appearsto
be read and some not - I'll post separately on that. But how do you
know where the values that are read in go in the DB records schema for
these sensors and what are they called? Like some of the battery
levels etc. I'm on an upgraded install recently from 3.x to 4.1.1.
