upgrade to device firmware 1.8.1 recommended !! - WiFi firmware should be 1.6.4 - if not, connect via WS View Plus app ...😎

Many thanks, Rainer. I think I understand. I was confused because the display/console says it is 'Model HP2553AE' running Firmware: Pro_v1.7.6 and I thought this supported the new API/driver. I didn't realise that it is only the Ecowitt 'displayless consoles/gateways' that support the newer API/driver.

Thank you for your advice. I followed your suggestion and with Matthew Wall's intercept driver (https://github.com/matthewwall/weewx-interceptor ) I have got the Ecowite HP2553 to communicate with WeeWx.

    you asked for the HP2553 station with the HP2551 console.
    For the GW1000/GW1100/GW2000 displayless consoles/gateways and the
    WN19x0 console , weewx can directly communicate via their API
    using the Ecowitt Gateway driver (new name) or GW1000 API driver
    (old name).
    The HP2551/HP350x, WS2320E/ WS2910 consoles don't have this API,
    hence the use of the interceptor driver.

    Hi Rainer. Many thanks for your helpful response. I will follow
    your suggestions and let you know how I get on. I did discover
    details of a service/driver at
    https://github.com/gjr80/weewx-gw1000/wiki which should work with
    the Ecowitt LAN/WIFI gateway but I couldn't get it to work.
    Reading the detail, it looks like this is a different approach
    from the one you suggest above?

        You can use the weewx interceptor driver - station_type =
        ecowitt-client and have your HP2551 console post via custom
        server to the server where your weewx runs. path must contain
        a "/" (without ""), server/IP is IP address only (no http://
        in front) - port has to be the same where the interceptor
        driver listens to - e.g. 8000. (port = 80 won't work as your
        web server usually already uses this port)

        If you use more than the standard sensors, you will an
        expanded version of the Ecowitt driver some forum members
        have developed based on Matthew Wall's original version which
        considers the whole Ecowitt sensor "fleet".

        A mere HP2553 (WS80 + WH40 outdoor sensors) should be covered
        by the original M.Wall interceptor driver from GitHub.

        Hi - I was looking for some guidance on how to send data
        from an Ecowitt HP2553 weather station to WeeWx. Looking at
        the WeeWx documentation I can't find any specific guidance.
        I believe that there isn't a standard WeeWx configuration
        for HP2553? I understand you may need to configure a custom
        interface using 'HTTP Post' etc? Many thanks. --
