Note from the datasheet that it measures both pressure and temperature, and has correction constants built in, but correction must be applied externally. On Sunday, January 22, 2017 at 10:55:11 PM UTC-8, David Morgan wrote: > > I have been able to photograph and read the sensor in my unit.

I'm using a raspberry pi 2. I did hack together a USB cable power combo and power the unit from that. Why they don't take power over USB out of the box is beyond me... On Jan 4, 2017 11:23 AM, "Brian Champion-Wescott" wrote: > Marcus, > > What hardware are you using for

Marcus, What hardware are you using for your AcuRite 01536? I have tried using a few different Linux distros on regular laptops, without any luck. Are you using a Raspberry Pi? Thanks, Brian On Sunday, December 25, 2016 at 2:17:58 PM UTC-5, Marcus Watkins wrote: > > For Christmas today I

Yea, I'm actually going to have to take my comment back. Windspeed and direction are working fine now. Just setting it up, sorry about the false alarm. On Saturday, December 31, 2016 at 6:05:52 PM UTC-7, Marcus Watkins wrote: > > My wind speed and direction works with no adjustments... > > On

wind speed and direction work for me. In weewx no direction is shown if speed is zero. You getting speed and direction on the console? On Friday, December 30, 2016 at 9:00:29 PM UTC-8, Jeffrey Forbes wrote: > > I got the same unit from Costco and I have been able to get it to work > with

I got the same unit from Costco and I have been able to get it to work with weewx; however, I am not getting wind speed and direction. Is that working for you? Jeff On Thursday, December 29, 2016 at 12:14:57 AM UTC-5, Scott Beard wrote: > > Marcus, > > I have been running one of these units

1536 on the left and 2064 on the right. The consoles lock up after 6 or so months of operation. This year going to hard reset both consoles at the end of the year, so maybe the rain total will remain correct for at least the spring rain season. When I get time to get one of the bmp

Marcus, I have been running one of these units with weewx on a RPI3 since mid October. The console is telling me the log is full and to connect it to the PC to clear it out. It has been telling me that since 12 days after I set it up. But it still works fine with weewx. From what I can
