I’ve gone to a 120GB mini SSD drive as well. Cheaper than a 16GB SLC micro SD 
card by far.

[weewx-user] Weewx issues

2019-07-25 Thread Allan Tyson
If you’re using an RPi and do not have it configured to minimize disk IO ( or 
even if you do and have been running on the same micro SD card for a long time 
) your micro SD card may be starting to fail. Copy your micro SD card image to 
your computer and then copy it back onto a new micro SD card. Use a very high 
quality card or even better, use an SLC memory type micro SD card. They’re very 
expensive but will last much longer.

Re: [weewx-user] Clearing Archive Memory on Davis Westher Envoy

2019-07-25 Thread Allan Tyson
Tom,
 My bad. I wasn’t stopping weewx before trying the wee_device commands. With 
weewx stopped it works perfectly.
 Thanks,
 Allan

I tried that. I get an unrecognized hardware error and it doesn’t complete.

Does the Vantage driver not support the Weather Envoy ?.

[weewx-user] Clearing Archive Memory on Davis Westher Envoy

2019-07-24 Thread Allan Tyson
I have a Davis USB Westher Envoy connected to an RPi running weewx. It was 
running fine but I stopped weewx on the RPi and disconnected the Weather Envoy 
USB cable from the RPi to connect it to another RPi I was using to install 
Raspbian Buster with weewx on a smaller micro SD card so I could save it’s 
image to a smaller backup image file  having originally installed it on an 
internal 120GB SSD drive.
 The new installation worked just great but when I reconnected the Weather 
Envoy to the original RPi I discovered that the USB loggers’s memory was 
somehow corrupted so that weewx would no longer update Nginx. I cleared the 
memory by connecting the Logger to my Mac laptop & used WeatherLink to clear 
the archive memory.
 There was a Post by Tom in 2012 saying you could change the configuration of a 
weather envoy using the config utility in weewx as well as using the 
WeatherLink software. I did see the instructions for using wee_device to change 
the parameters of the Davis driver but when running it I get an unrecognized 
hardware error and the Weather Envoy isn’t listed as being supported hardware 
in the list of supported hardware. Only the  Vantsge Vue and Vantsge Pro2 
Consoles are listed though in the pictorial list of supported hardware the 
Weather Envoy is shown.
 Is there a way of clearing the Weather Envoy archive memory from the command 
line of the RPi so I can clear it without having to stop the RPI, disconnect 
the Envoy USB cable and connect it to my laptop to use the WeatherLink software 
to perform the clearing and then have to reconnect it to my RPi ?.
