Hi Bob

Your Logia looks to be identical to the Bresser 5-in-1 PC station I use 
(model 7002571). With it being the PC version (as opposed to the wireless 
version) you can use Bob Atchley's driver WS6in1. I've been using it since 
November 2020 and it has worked flawlessly for me. You'll find full details 
about it on Bob's github page:
https://github.com/bobatchley/weewx-ws6in1

In fact I've just checked and indeed the LOWSB510PB is listed.

Don't forget to register your station when you setup WeeWX then you will 
join a select band (currently 11 of us) on the WeeWX map who use the WS6in1 
driver ;-)
