Thanks Anthony, I have now managed to get my LW301 running however I still have a few problems. Temperature & humidity work Ok! barometer works occasionally but have no wind speed, wind direction, or rainfall. What else am I missing here?

[weewx-user] Re: LW301 Support
Hello Julz,
I only just got LW301 working with weewx myself (again). In my case the
interceptor driver is used in listen mode, not sniff mode, and I have an
OpenWRT router/mini server running it.
My first experiment with it stopped working when Oregon Scientific pulled
down the Anywhere Weather server designed to work with the LW301. This had
the effect of the LW301 continually looking up DNS for the server and
getting no-where, so it stopped sending any type of data that the
interceptor driver could capture for weewx.
I've since added a host record to my OpenWRT router so the LW301 sends its
data to my local box instead of out on the internet, my router rewrites the
request via firewall rules to port 8080, where the interceptor driver is
set to listen to and can thus read the data in the http POST and use it for
weewx. If you haven't done something like this yourself in answering the
LW301's sad request for a server that no longer exists, the LW301 is
unlikely to be sending anything useful at all ... it will just forlornly be
looking for the Oregon server it is designed to send its data to.
Note that you only need to fool the LW301 into thinking it has a
destination to send the data to - gateway.weather.oregonscientific.com is
the hostname it wants ... you don't actually have to handle the http POST
it sends after it finds the appropriately named server.
Hope this helps in some small way.
Cheers,
Anthony

[weewx-user] Re: LW301 Support
have you run the driver directly?
How to run the driver directly
The driver can be run directly for diagnostic purposes. This can be useful
when setting up the capture pipeline or for determining the sensor
identifiers.
For example, to run in sniff mode, looking for acurite bridge sensor data:
PYTHONPATH=bin python bin/user/interceptor.py --device=acurite-bridge
--mode=sniff --iface=eth0 --filter="src 192.168.0.4 and dst port 80"
To run in listen mode, looking for LW302 sensor data on port 9000:
PYTHONPATH=bin python bin/user/interceptor.py --device=lw30x --mode=listen
--port=9000
Specify help for a full list of options:
PYTHONPATH=bin python bin/user/interceptor.py --help

[weewx-user] Re: LW301 Support
1. forget the fact that simulator works ok 2. clear database to ensure there is no data with 'strange' dateTime settings from the simulator 3. I have no interceptor experience but I believe the interceptor driver has some debug/test information in the wiki connected to the installation/selection of interceptor driver check the log carefully from start of weewx and see if there is any information shown that may be helpful - and attach the log to your post to the forum. let weewx run for at least two archive intervals - what is your archive interval set to by the way?? reports are only generated every archive interval.

Hi Andrew, Have a new centos 7 install there are no errors in the log all functions well with simulator, but when i select the user.interceptor driver and change setting to lw30x there are still no errors in the log however the web page stops updating and all appears to freeze (No activity in the log) Is there a way to test that the driver is receiving lw301 data?
