[weewx-user] Re: Weatherflow UDP driver, Tempest battery reports 'LOW'

[John Pierce]

yeesh, if I even look sideways at that code, I get a  TypeError: '>=' not 
supported between instances of 'NoneType' and 'float' in the modified 
get_battery_status routine in sensors.inc..

I don't know my python at all well, or this templating language used in the 
.inc files.

I have it working again, and I don't think I'm going to touch it.

yup - that's where I was going.  Use that example.

[weewx-user] Re: Weatherflow UDP driver, Tempest battery reports 'LOW'

[vince]

You're going to have to tell us which skin(s) you are seeing 'low' on and 
which one(s) you want to add images to.

You only need to map the obs_st battery status to one weewx element.  The 
example you copied I think probably assume the old Air+Sky two-sensor 
Weatherflow station.  The Tempest has only one battery to report on.

Re: adding images, you want to see the Customization Guide 
 which 
admittedly is a bit of a tough read for new users.  Short answer is that 
you define your images in skin.conf for the skin you want the image to be 
in, and you hook it into the web by editing the .tmpl template file(s) for 
that skin.

Re: battery voltage showing ok/low, the default skins assume a Davis 
Vantage scenario where a battery status of  0 = ok and 1 = not_ok, so if 
you're mapping voltages to the default elements you would see the 'not ok' 
thing rather than the voltage in volts.  You'd have to edit sensors.inc in 
the Seasons skin to display voltages as you seem to want.   The check for 
zero/non-zero is at the top of the file.

At the top of sensors.inc there it says:

#def get_battery_status($x)
#if $x == 0
OK
#else
LOW
#end if
#end def

You would change it to just display the voltage in volts.
Something like the following (totally untested):

#def get_battery_status($x)
#if $x >= 0
$x
#end def

Alternately you could change the calls down below that look like:

#if $day.outTempBatteryStatus.has_data

  $obs.label.outTempBatteryStatus
  $get_battery_status($current.outTempBatteryStatus.raw)

#end if

to

#if $day.outTempBatteryStatus.has_data

  $obs.label.outTempBatteryStatus
  $current.outTempBatteryStatus.raw

#end if

The .raw will show the number.  If you omit the .raw you'll see the units 
too.

[weewx-user] La Crosse 5-in-1 professional wireless weather station

[Kete]

Hi,

Just writing to see if the La Crosse 5-in-1 is a known but not supported 
weather station. It's a cheap station at a big box store, and the 
Weather Underground recommends it.


I'm going through the supported hardware to find something as cheap 
($100), but it's slow going.

[weewx-user] Weatherflow UDP driver, Tempest battery reports 'LOW'

[John Pierce]

So I brought up my new WF Tempest w/ the UDP driver in weewx yesterday, and 
it seems to be working fine...

On  the weatherflow station website, my battery is fine, but on weewx, its 
showing consistently 'low'.

sensor map:

[WeatherFlowUDP]
driver = user.weatherflowudp
udp_address = 0.0.0.0
share_socket = False

[[sensor_map]]
outTemp = air_temperature.ST-00047518.obs_st
outHumidity = relative_humidity.ST-00047518.obs_st
pressure = station_pressure.ST-00047518.obs_st
#lightning_strikes =  lightning_strike_count.ST-00047518.obs_st
#avg_distance =  lightning_strike_avg_distance.ST-00047518.obs_st
outTempBatteryStatus = battery.ST-00047518.obs_st
windSpeed = wind_speed.ST-00047518.rapid_wind
windDir = wind_direction.ST-00047518.rapid_wind
#luxXXX = illuminance.ST-00047518.obs_st
UV = uv.ST-00047518.obs_st
rain = rain_accumulated.ST-00047518.obs_st
windBatteryStatus = battery.ST-00047518.obs_st
radiation = solar_radiation.ST-00047518.obs_st
#lightningXXX = distance.ST-00047518.evt_strike
#lightningYYY = energy.ST-00047518.evt_strike

output: 

  Battery Status
  Wind Battery: LOW
  Outside Temperature Battery : LOW

I'd really like to graph the battery voltage, but I dunno how to add a new 
graph type to weewx.
