Re: [weewx-user] How to remove spikes from data?

2021-10-12 Thread Richard Horobin
I accept that you want to remove spikes. Do you think this process could be used to detect "warning" levels? eg tomato plants are not frost-hardy at all, so we need a warning when the temperature goes to 5C. Many other processes require warnings at plus or minus 2.5 standard deviations, as

I’ve lost months of data, too. My Acurite 5n1 stores only the total number of rain bucket tips. Maybe the little console stores more. I don’t know how to extract anything from it. Peter Q, where is the magic can opener? On Wednesday, 7 July 2021 at 02:29:50 UTC+10 aseg...@gmail.com wrote: >

I have a similar setup, done in May, and I have similar lack of data. It worked from Nov to April, but I wanted to change from a workstation-with-GUI to a Headless-Server, so I started again, and apparently messed it up. (I kept weewx.conf) RTl-433 works, generating sensible output like

[weewx-user] ID values for sensor_map for rtl_sdr

2021-04-06 Thread Richard Horobin
I'm confused by the ids for my Acurite 5n1 and AmbientWeather WH31E sensors. SDR.PY has found the ID of both devices. For the Acurite, it generated the hex value of ID, but for the Ambient, it didn't. Question: should I continue with the decimal value of ID for the Ambient device? I did:

I believe so. I use it with a dongle and software-defined radio (SDR) to receive weather measurements from various devices. I have a weather station but the dongle receives radio frequency (RF) signals directly from the outside sensors. Are you sure you need all the power of several Raspberry

Greg, Your web page is so good. I am so envious. I'm trying to achieve what you have already. I have issues beginning with not having a pressure reading, which leads to missing reports. Have you documented your installation? May I have a copy of your weewx.conf, so I can compare it to see

I’m also using SDR to receive AcuRite 5n1, Ambient Weather and Fine Offset signals. Weewx.conf SDR step calls RTL433 to get the data. The -R parameters specify the devices by a coded model number. I have Not specified frequencies, and the code seems to work well. -- You received this

Allen Wilson, many thanks. 1. -M oldmodel enabled me to add WH25 2. It didn't help with WH51. No parsed output for the soil moisture sensor. 1. However, the output had a different value for ad_raw, which changed from 16 to 19. 2. Now I will go over to RTL_433

This is a successful implementation of RTL433 and WEEWX, using SDR. I have an Acurite5n1 weather station and a Misol wh31, which both transmit radio. Although WEEWX cannot receive two signals at once, RTL433 can receive signals from multiple devices at different frequencies. The RTL433
