yes, I understand that the db is a fundamental part of the system :-)
I can see in the logs that every <interval> drain_piezo has a value, and
this get added to the db in the rain field.
In the seasons skin for example, I am seeing the figure for Rain Today is
actually the sum of all those drain_piezo for today
This was working fine with a previous weather station with traditional
tipping bucket, so I guess I am mapping the wrong option in the interceptor
section
logs show
'rrain_piezo': 0.0
'erain_piezo': 0.008
'hrain_piezo': 0.0
'drain_piezo': 0.031
'wrain_piezo': 0.035
'mrain_piezo': 0.035
'rain_total_piezo': 0.035
as available fields, so not sure if
[[sensor_map_extensions]]
rain = drain_piezo
rainRate = rrain_piezo
needs to be mapping a different option, or if its the skin that needs
changing
