That didnt help. I dont see the min windchill i see in stats in 5min archive records either. I think since I set record_augmentation to true, it picked high/low from loop packet. But since archive packets dont have windchill, the 5 min records have the average. I see this above: [Accumulator]

probably. Try and plot min wind chill instead of avg and for heat index plot max and you may get what you expect. On Sunday, 2 August 2020 06:06:35 UTC+3, Praveen Chandrasekaran wrote: > > I see an issue where graph doesn't match the lowest wind chill in stats. > That's because of averaging? -

Thanks Graham. I read that killing the install process will mess up the install at a minimum and possibly corrupt the system. Is there a way to get back to the install script from the D option? On Thursday, July 30, 2020 at 11:55:39 PM UTC-7, Graham Eddy wrote: > > ctl-Z stop just means you have

ctl-Z stop just means you have paused the command and placed it in background - it is still there, waiting, but paused (and holding the lock). bring it back to foreground to resume and interact with it by $ fg then kill it with ctl-C (or use some other method to kill it gently such as

Ah, thanks for that. Should have been able to figure that out myself. However, I just tried to upgrade using these commands: sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install weewx And was informed that 3.9.2 is the latest version! Does this mean I have to download the .tar and do it manually? I'm not

I was about to for that anyway. However, now that I am ready, I am not sure how to proceed. I see some info on installing and some on removing but none on upgrading. Do I need to uninstall first? Or is there an apt-get upgrade command? Thanks again. On Thursday, July 30, 2020 at 11:54:01 AM UT

Re: [weewx-user] Re: wind chill for Vantage Pro 2

Found the problem. You're using V3.9.2, but support for the LOOP2 format was not introduced until V4.0.0. You'll need to upgrade to do this. I was misled because the change log (wrongly) said that support for LOOP2 packets was introduced in V3.7.0, so I assumed support was there --- I never bother

Re: [weewx-user] Re: wind chill for Vantage Pro 2

OK, I tried stopping the daemon and running directly. The LOOP data shows no difference between outTemp and windchill although the console shows a 4 degree difference. I have attached my conf file in case I messed up something. I see that when the change to support LOOP2 was submitted, a reques

Re: [weewx-user] Re: wind chill for Vantage Pro 2

I think Gary was referring to "LOOP" packets as opposed to "LOOP2" packets. They are two different kinds of packets the Vantage series is capable of emitting. Only the latter, LOOP2, has windchill. On Mon, Jul 27, 2020 at 4:47 PM brisguy foo wrote: > Thanks for the replies guys! > > I did update

Thanks for the replies guys! I did update my conf file as suggested, however I am confused by the comment that wind chill "is not in the LOOP or archive record from the console". I know I was able to see wind chill in historical data downloaded from the console logger and displayed using Weath

Re: [weewx-user] Re: wind chill for Vantage Pro 2

Geez, Gary, you're right! So, you would also have to specify LOOP2 packets. See the section [Vantage] in the User's Guide. [Vantage] loop_request = 2 -tk On Fri, Jul 24, 2020 at 5:13 PM gjr80 wrote: > Windchill is only in included in the

Windchill is only in included in the Davis LOOP2 packet, it’s not in the LOOP packet or archive record (the defaults) from the console. So unless you have set WeeWX to use the LOOP2 packet WeeWX will never see windchill from the console, irrespective of StdWXCalculate settings. Gary -- You re

[weewx-user] Re: wind chill for Vantage Pro 2

Thanks for the reply. I did check the weewx.conf file and and found that wind chill should be coming from the VP2. See below. I believe your comment about when wind chill applies is only for the case where weewx calculates the result. The VP2 does not have the restriction of being below 50deg.
