Re: [weewx-user] Potential memory issue

Here is a plot overnight tracking the various memory values in /proc/pid/status at sampling interval 20 sec. My system is a wmr300, weewx 3.9.2, archive interval 1 minute to mysql, posting to WU, not usng rapidfire. I don't understand what I am talking about here, but just reporting what I

Re: [weewx-user] Potential memory issue

If there is a memory leak in the wmr300 driver, it might be my fault, so I suppose I should look into it. There is a thread from maybe a year ago where WRM300s and 200s were reportedly hanging Pi's but it seemed to be related to kernel version, so I had assumed it was a kernel driver issue

Re: [weewx-user] WMR300: Reading from history

Hi Miguel, I think the problem is that you are using the standard driver, which has the history clearing disabled. You should use the version Leon has updated on Github. Once the history buffer is full then it no longer retains recent results and that is probably why you are seeing gaps. I

Re: [weewx-user] WMR300A -> Wunderground, no rain data

Hi Leon, I too use 1 minute intervals. I wrote the code changes to automatically clear the history when it reaches x% full. The current version has these changes in, so you should be OK for now. But search through the list archives to find the threads about WMR300 hanging - I have posted a

Re: [weewx-user] WMR300A -> Wunderground, no rain data

Hi Leon, it seems you still have a problem with the archive data. As far as I recall the history in the console does not wrap around, so once it is full then the console never saves any more. Your version of the driver is set to clear the history after it reaches 20% however your last index

Re date/time - I was really interested in that, because Australia, where I live, has no time transmitters, so it gradually drifts. I could find no way to set it using the Windows software, so it seems manually via the console is the only way to adjust it. The only automated way would be to

Re: [weewx-user] Re: Reliable Switch to MySQL?

It won't take you long at all. I have done more complex transfers from sqlite3 to mysql and I haven't been trained in any IT system - sorry, I was taught Fortran IV, but I don't think that counts. Mysql has a far richer function and capability set so if you intend doing anything more than

[weewx-user] Re: problem with wind in WMR300

Hi Juan Antonio I am sure we are all glad the problem has been solved and we can all learn something from it. I am curious if this was supplied with the original kit or if you added an extension. I ask because my wmr300 has no in-line socket - my wind sensor assembly has about 6m of cable

[weewx-user] Re: problem with wind in WMR300

I cannot see it being a version issue at all, nor any skins etc. The driver itself is reporting via debug printouts that wind speed is delivered in the USB packet as zero. So you have to look backwards towards the WMR300 console. The next step is either: 1. examine what the Vendor's Windows

[weewx-user] Re: problem with wind in WMR300

Not exactly - you have only enabled debug_packet. You need to add the line debug_decode=1, which includes the data fairly directly from the USB buffer, with less processing in the driver. If the decode also shows zero values for wind in the usb input buffer then your next step should be to plug

[weewx-user] Re: problem with wind in WMR300

When the wind speed is zero then the direction is deliberately set to None, so you can only check direction when there is some wind. That rule applies both to average and to gust readings. When you set debug=1 you also need to check which debug suboptions are set in the wmr300 section of the

[weewx-user] Re: WMR200-driver shutdown directly after startup

I cannot help on the main problem, but the USB device descriptive strings are simply taken from a local file; on my system it is /usr/share/hwdata/usb.ids. You can see that some of the other descriptions are also different for the same ID. On Wednesday, 28 November 2018 07:21:39 UTC+10, Per

[weewx-user] Re: Raspberry kernels later than 4.4 hang when running weewx.

Sad. So the unresolved questions are: 1. was the wmr300 console still displaying the USB symbol after it stopped? 2. did you try unplug/reinsert the usb cable? 3. was the kernel totally unresponsive - even after unplugging USB? could you even ping it? Cameron. On Tuesday, 16

There is a slightly more complicated, but safer process...examine the history first by running the driver standalone stop weewx cd to the folder above where weewx is installed - e.g. mine is /usr/share/weewx, so cd /usr/share PYTHONPATH=weewx python weewx/user/wmr300-v19rc6+f3.py
