Barometer uses outdoor temperature for correction. Indoor pressure for all practical purposes is the same as outdoor pressure which is determined by the weather. But again, if the algorithm is the same as for the original VP, then the barometer corrections depending on temperature at high alti

Thanks Vince. That sounds easy enough. What about the pressure? Since the Davis already reports pressure, I was thinking of ignore the pressure from the gateway. So, that only leaves battery and signal. On Monday, January 9, 2023 at 2:43:36 PM UTC-7 vince wrote: > You have 8 extraT+H fields

A couple of points that might help: - for an observation to be recorded in the database two fundamental conditions must be met: 1. the field/observation concerned must exist in the archive records generated by WeeWX (this can be checked by running WeeWX directly

Good catch. No, the station has no input for altitude. And I was wrong about setting the tags in twi.py to "altitude" -- that caused issues with the Belchertown skin I use and the value reported to PWSWeather. I changed the tags to "barometer" and things work okay now but I'm left unsure what er

You have 8 extraT+H fields and 8 devices so you're set. - Map the WH31 to extraWhatever1-5 matching their channel settings - Set the WN34BL to channel 6, 7, or 8 and map it to the matching extraWhateverNNN field for consistency - Map the WH32 to whatever is still unused in extraTemp1

Thanks. After checking the install and driver python code, I didn’t see anything that would add the extra fields to the database… but I’m a python novice, so didn’t know if weewx would add dynamically. What is confusing is all of he field names listed in the install driver. I guess that is done

The driver isn't going to alter your weewx db schema if that's what you're asking. There's no extraTemp9 or extraHumid9 in the weewx db schema. You might want to map your ecowitt sensors to some elements already in the weewx schema to keep things simple. What sensors do you have and what chan

Sounds good. Just a reality check: if your instrument emits altimeter pressure, then there must be a way of setting altitude in the instrument. Hope that's true. On Mon, Jan 9, 2023 at 7:23 AM pannetron wrote: > Update on a revised twi.py. Changing the genLoopPacket "tags" from > "pressure" to

Update on a revised twi.py. Changing the genLoopPacket "tags" from "pressure" to "altimeter" from values parsed from the station reports did the trick. After some previous changes from strings to binary strings, there was a bug with how wind_dir values were parsed so I fixed that, too. Aft
