I have no idea what the sensor_map element is nor what it would do. And
your later reply had too many [[[ ]]] levels.
If you are using Gary's original GW1000 driver then just add the
[[field_map_extensions]] two lines to the [GW1000] section in weewx.conf,
then restart weewx.
[GW1000]
poll_interval = 20
driver = user.gw1000
ip_address = 192.168.2.87 # gw1200
port = 45000
[[field_map_extensions]]
outTempBatteryStatus = wh26_batt # outside t+h sensor
batteryStatus1 = wh31_ch1__batt # indoor t+h sensors on channels
1-5
batteryStatus2 = wh31_ch2__batt
batteryStatus3 = wh31_ch3__batt
batteryStatus4 = wh31_ch4__batt
batteryStatus5 = wh31_ch5__batt
batteryStatus8 = wh51_ch1__batt # soil moisture
soilTemp1 = temp9 # wh34 soil temp
# unfortunately no batteryStatus9
exists for wh34_ch1_batt
rain = t_rain # WH40BH as primary rain sensor
rainBatteryStatus = wh40_batt # and its battery status
If you are running a dpkg installation of weewx, you can test the driver
with:
PYTHONPATH=/etc/weewx/bin python3 -m user.gw1000 --test-driver
--ip-address=192.168.2.87
