OK - so I specify the driver for the Vantage, point the IP to my meteobridge. How do I authenticate or do I have to turn that off?

So as far as I can figure out - it needs to interface directly with the Vantage rather than through meteobridge.

The problem is that the meteobridge does authentication over its web interface. I don't see any opportunity to handle authentication in weewx.

[weewx-user] Re: Getting started - how to connect to a meteobridge
OK - I realize I am asking the wrong question. I have a Meteobridge Pro that collects data directly from my Davis weatherstation. I want to dump this data into weewx and then use the belchertown skin to display it. I could go and hack up the belchertown skin to work directly from meteobridge I suppose but that may potentially be more effort than it is worth for me. Meteobridge can dump out data in csv, do MySQL queries, etc. So how do I get the two linked? Meteobridge can send data via a variety of options out, but I don't think can be queried the way that weewx reqires On Thursday, March 12, 2020 at 6:20:03 PM UTC-7, tarun wrote: > > The problem is that the meteobridge does authentication over its web > interface.

[weewx-user] Re: Getting started - how to connect to a meteobridge
I would forget about trying to interface WeeWx to the Meteobridge. I would suggest getting a WeatherLink Live and then interfacing that to WeeWx for your needs. You can then keep the Meteobridge as is and doing what it is doing now. Or you could change things up a bit and gain some added capabilities with the Meteobridge. - Change the Meteobridge to get data from the WLL instead of from its RF antenna and that gains you the following advantages: - Indoor temperature will probably be more accurate coming from the WLL than from the Meteobridge Pro - Ability to add more sensor options to the WLL that then the Meteobridge can then also gain. - Increase the RF distance between Davis sensor transmitters as the WLL will work up to 1000 ft and the Meteobridge Pro is much less - Gain the ability to send data to Weatherlink.com via the WLL - You also open the possibility to also test out other weather software with the WLL like; Cumulus MX and Weather-Display. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.

[weewx-user] Re: Getting started - how to connect to a meteobridge
Alright - I think that indicates that I am going to not bother with weewx. I don't really want to keep sinking money into my weather station and this was very much in the nice to have category.
