Re: [weewx-user] Re: ExtraTemp1

Yes the rule of thumb is check your units before adding anything to a packet or record. I think the real catch here is as you pointed out, the apparent changing of the units by the driver. Do wonder how many folks have code such as this, safe enough I guess until the holes in the cheese align.

Re: [weewx-user] Re: ExtraTemp1

Seems like a reasonable theory. But, it still comes down to the same conclusion: you must make sure the unit system of the thing you're adding matches the unit system of the thing you're adding it to. The pond example should be modified so that its configuration stanza specifies what unit system

Re: [weewx-user] Re: ExtraTemp1

Oh, and needless to say I really think we need to change that wiki post, even with the units warning you added Tom. Happy to deal with that when I am back on my PC. Gary -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group. To unsubscribe from this g

Re: [weewx-user] Re: ExtraTemp1

This has been puzzling me, in particular as it seems that as simplistic as pond.py is (ie it is not units aware) using extraTemp1 in either units is causing a conversion error. Now that we have some config details I think I am starting to understand what is happening. In a nutshell I think this

Re: [weewx-user] Re: NOAA reports not available

Okay, That just confirms your NOAA problem is somewhere else. If wxobs is working for you then I'm assuming that will be on your local computer, as it's not working on your remote (public) side. That should be fixable, but is not your original issue. Your original issue... You mention that the NOA

I read about 50 reviews of the 2902 and the WS-2000. The screen on the WS-2000 is just a ton better. The only down side, is you need a WS32B to get inside temp/humidity/barometer (it is included in the package). In some ways that is good, but it is something to think about. I have been quit

Glenn, Still missing the NOAA reports. I moved datepicker.js and it didn't seem to change anything. I have wxobs running fine and removing datepicker.js didn't seem to affect it, or anything else. On Thursday, January 31, 2019 at 7:04:50 PM UTC-5, Glenn McKechnie wrote: > > I've had this happen

Re: [weewx-user] Re: ExtraTemp1

Well, it's possible that the unit system used by the records changes record to record. Some weather stations do that. You'll have to check and correct as necessary. -tk On Fri, Feb 1, 2019 at 1:11 PM John Masters wrote: > Ok tk, i will try again tomorrow - maybe sleep will help! Sorry for bei

Well, that's an improvement, but it looks like the second record got too small a value: 3.8. If you run with debug=1 and look in the log, it will show you what values pond.py read from the file. Do they match your expectations? -tk On Fri, Feb 1, 2019 at 11:32 AM John Masters wrote: > OK, now

At this point, all I can do is repeat what I've already said: you must make sure the unit system of the incoming value from pond.txt matches the unit system in the record. The incoming value is in US Customary, but the record is in metric. -tk On Fri, Feb 1, 2019 at 10:55 AM John Masters wrote:
