Well, I started this conversation already at another thread
(https://groups.google.com/g/weewx-user/c/ua0JjTp1DW8/m/AFGZf7AyAgAJ),
concerning wind.gust.dir in version 4.2.0. As TK managed to solve the main
problem, there is still the other part unsolved. So, I want to move this
topic into a new thread, knowing, that there were similar questions during
the last months, whicht could help only partially.
I am not able to change from interceptor's ecowitt-client to GW1000 without
loss of some data. Gary provided the crucial hints in the thread mentioned
above, which brought me almost to the successful end of this story. But
still one thing remains to be much too complicated for me:
According to Gary's explanations, I introduced an extra stanza in
weewx.conf:
# Options for extension 'GW1000'
[GW1000]
driver = user.gw1000
[[field_map_extensions]]
# WeeWX field name = GW1000 field name
rainEvent = rainevent
wh65_battery = wh65_batt
I took these two values from the original ecowitt-client mappings in
interceptor.py:
DEFAULT_SENSOR_MAP = {
...
'rainEvent': 'rain_event',
'UV': 'uv',
where the Weewx field is on the left and the Ecowitt-client field to the
right side.
And here is the other map in weewx.conf:
[Interceptor]
driver = user.interceptor
device_type = ecowitt-client
mode = listen
port = 9000
[[sensor_map_extensions]]
txBatteryStatus = wh65_battery
Here, the Ecowitt client field is at the left and thus the Weewx field
should be to the right.
The GW1000 field map extension works! But this is true only for rainEvent,
no for the battery status. I had a look into sensors.inc in the seasons
skin:
#def get_battery_status($x)
#if $x == 0
<span class="status_ok">$x: GOOD</span>
#else
<span class="status_low">$x: LOW</span>
#end if
#end def
and found out, that, using the ecowitt-client, $wx == 0.0, but with GW1000
it does not even exist, no value at all. Although I trend to assume, that I
understand now, how the mappings work (thanks to Gary), I am still helpless
to map the battery sensor properly.
Hopefully someone can bring me on the right track.
