I finally received my GW1000 last night.  Got it powered up and connected
to my network but I'm having some difficulty configuring the sensors.

The sensor ID page seems to have all sensors enabled and I only have the
inside sensor (THP) and one TH sensor deployed so far.  I tried looking at
the sensor ID page from the WS-2000 console and manually pick the channels
detected on that screen but not sure if the GW1000 is picking them up or
not.  I still need to get the GW1000 on a USB extension.  I have it plugged
into a banana pi m1 USB port right now for power. (I plan to install weewx
on the banana pi m1 soon...need a few more pieces of hardware before I can
finish getting that set up)

Hopefully when I get the GW1000 on a USB extension cable it will be able to
pick up the sensors.  Or I may have to find a different power source /
location for it.
