[weewx-user] Re: Interceptor - Acurite Access and multi sensors - How to get the different sensor ID?
Thanks. The smartHub died after a recent blackout. My guess is that it didn't like the power coming back on(it's plugged into a surge protector, but those are not 100% fullproof) SDR will be the next purchase, probably in the autumn.

No matter, I found the answer. Acurite data is encrypted, so it can't be read, and only the WU data is read. And since Acurite only allow one device to send data to WU... *sigh* An RDL receiver seems the way to go now, when I have some spare time...

Some more details: I was reading the data through a RasberryPi with a bridge. Since installing the Access, I had to redo the config to use the Interceptor Observer driver and change the sensor map for the new labels. But nowhere do I see a sensor ID anymore to differenctiate btw the 2 stations when doing a debug=1 On Sunday, 19 May 2019 19:15:05 UTC-4, Sylvain Martel wrote: > > > I have two 5-in-1 Acurite WS at home.
