Hi Gary Thanks for looking at this so quickly.
When I used WS View it wanted to update the firmware, so I did that last thing last night and Lo! When I tried the test again this morning it connected and got data! $ PYTHONPATH=/home/weewx/bin python -m user.gw1000 --test-driver Using configuration file /home/weewx/weewx.conf Interrogating None at 192.168.1.162:45000 2021-11-27 09:29:17 GMT (1638005357): UV: 0, dateTime: 1638005357, dayRain: 0.0, daymaxwind: 8.2, inHumidity: 49, inTemp: 18.2, luminosity: 3239.0, monthRain: 28.0, outHumidity: 67, outTemp: 2.0, pressure: 1004.9, rain: None, rainRate: 0.0, relbarometer: 1091.7, stormRain: 0.0, usUnits: 17, uvradiation: 2.8, weekRain: 5.9, wh25_batt: 0, wh25_sig: 4, wh65_batt: 0, wh65_sig: 4, windDir: 31, windGust: 1.5, windSpeed: 0.8, yearRain: 585.0 ... Sorry I don't know what the previous firmware was but I brought and set this station up in late March this year, so it would have had whatever was current then and so is the GW1000 driver on the other Pi. So I can only conclude that the older driver is OK with both firmware versions, but the newer driver doesn't work with the older firmware. Current firmware is WH2650A_V1.6.8 You got the correct IP, On Friday, 26 November 2021 at 23:13:09 UTC gjr80 wrote: > I've now been able to manually decode the response received and other than > the checksum and the device SSID it all decodes correctly or with plausible > values.
