Hi,
after a breakdown of my old device (WS1) I've bought the german version of
the GW1000 (firmware V2.2.0 after update) as a bundle with ultrasonic
wind-sensor (WS80), classic dip-bucket (WH40) and outdoor temp-sensor
(WH32) from Froggit (HP1000 SE Pro Ultrasonic).
The connection with my old weewx-installation on RHEL7 (3.9.1 rpm) runs
without any problems. I've installed the driver via wee_extension and it
runs out of the box. All necessary data were received.
*A great hug for the work in the development of the driver!*
Today I've connected the power-cord from the box with the wind-sensor
because it will get cold and misty for the next few days and I wanted to
test the correct working of the heating. So I ran the driver in console
mode to get the mapped name for heating-voltage and heater-temperature.
Gosh - in the output in debug level 3 there is no information about the
heating:
[root@server ~]# PYTHONPATH=/usr/share/weewx python -m user.gw1000
--test-driver --debug=3
Using configuration file /etc/weewx/weewx.conf
debug level is '3'

Really strange. Also there is a difference between the driver data for the
devices battery voltage and the information on ecowitt.net weather services
dashboard:
Outdoor T&RH Sensor
Normal
Sonic Array
3,16 V
Rainfall Sensor
1,6 V
The difference of the voltage from the rain-bucket in ecowitt.net and the
driver is not so big - but it's about 10% ...
I've made a test with an actual weewx installation (4.x) on a raspi and got
the same information - no heating-information and the same difference in
the voltage.
Is it a bug or an undocumented feature of the driver? ;)
Best regards
Max
