[weewx-user] Passive antenna amplifier for WMR200

2017-01-01 Thread Per Edström
I made one after this description and it made a difference. It would have been better to have a connector for an external antenna (Ground-plane) but this is easier to make.. http://www.the-lighthouse.se/eng/teknik/antenn-amp/antenn-amp.html In swedish but maybe Google Translate can be of

[weewx-user] Wind chill, dewpoint and heat index

2017-01-01 Thread Per Edström
I have 4 (different) Oregon stations connected to Weewx (on different HW too). One have stable readings/calculation on these three values but not the other ones. Some stations have sporadic notations on some of these. I checked wxformulas.py on how they are calculated and what I can see they

Apparently the "Barometer"-reading requires 12 hrs of temperature data. As my sensors/the station don't manage to collect all data the barometer-calculation fails. But I realize I'm not that interested in barometer-readings: "*This is the pressure corrected for altitude, temperature, and

[weewx-user] Lost barometer on WMR200 and WMR88

2016-12-31 Thread Per Edström
..but it is working on WMR928. I have not really noticed as temperature is the main focus. Looking back in history it has been lost for more than a year (as far as I can seen on GUI/web). Both WMR-stations have barometer-sensor built-in but WMR928 have extrernal sensor (in the indoor-sensor).

[weewx-user] Alarm on loss of sensor or low temperature?

2016-12-29 Thread Per Edström
I have one temperature sensor in another (small) building/house (2 sq.m) where the water filter is located. Now, there are serveral issues there: 1. The sensor consumes batteries very rapidly. I have to change once a month when it should last a year. I don't know why this is but the sensor is

Actually, there is not that much info available.. Isof says one user when Weewx is running but none when Weewx is stopped. A reboot did solve the Lock-problem but I have to stop Weewx on this unit, not the other one.. folke@eBox3350.L5E:~$ sqlite3 /var/lib/weewx/weewx.sdb ".backup

[weewx-user] USB-reset changes /dev/ttyUSB0 to /dev/ttyUSB1

2016-12-28 Thread Per Edström
This is probably related to my HW i.e. the Ebox3350 and the RS232-to-USB-unit )PL2303). But maybe other Weewx-users have experienced a change in USB-device? Questions: - Why is the USB reset? - Why does it change device number? - Is there any way to lock the PL2303 to /dev/ttyUSB0 so it doesn't

I run my Weewx on Raspberry Pi and on a "PC" (Ebox 3350 and Ubuntu 10). Both have the OS on an SD/SDHC-card. Now, I find it messy to create a backup image: 1. Halt system 2. Power down 3. Remove SD-card 4. Put in laptop and create an image to file (5-10 min) 5. Insert SD-card in taget again and

I was lazy and did not make any backup or image of my installation. (Yes - Bad sysadmin!) Last week my SD-card gave up and very few files are not affected (and can be copied). The weewx.sdb-file is only readable by 80% and the rest is zeros now. Is it possible to recover the first 80% and
