[weewx-user] Re: wxt5x0 v0.7 driver issue

[Stephen Holden]

Thanks, just wanted to know if anyone else had issues so I could decide 
whether to spend some time looking at it now. Since you had no issues, I 
spent 20 minutes and checked everything and then re-installed the drive one 
more time after downloading and inspecting the driver code.  This time I 
got a prompt (y/n) during install that I'm 99% sure I didn't see before, 
not sure why.  
But after re-installing one more time it is working.

I hate those 'suddenly works, not sure why' issues, but don't have time to 
spend a day re-creating the exact instance (from weekly backup) to figure 
it out.

Thanks.

[weewx-user] wxt5x0 v0.7 driver issue

[Stephen Holden]

I just updated my WXT5x0 driver to the latest version as per the README on 
Matthew's github page, but now the wxt5x0 driver is not listed as an option 
when I re-configure.

Tried installing it again, but no luck. And the weewx.conf is unchanged so 
points to the (older) wxt5x0 driver, which it can't find.

Anyone else have issues updating the driver?

Thanks in advance!
S.

[weewx-user] WXT520 message format

[Stephen Holden]

Hi All.

Just started playing with weewx and trying to use aWXT520.  The edssage are 
received, but not parsed.  Running the wxt5x0.py code creates the data 
string in binary format, not ASCII, which I think is an issue.  Also, 
parsing looks for only 1 '=' character and the binary string has 3 values 
with an = , so parsing fails.  Is the msg config dfor WXT520 documented 
anywhere? 
Don't see it on the driver github page.  Assume I'm missing something 
simple or the string format setup on WXT is incorrect
Anyone with a working wxt5x0 that can provide any guidance?

Thx.
