Thanks for the (very) speedy response, Tom. I’m running weewx 3.9.2 on a Raspberry Pi, raspbian buster. I’m using a MySQL database, hosted on a Synology NAS (MariaDB 5). Looking at the archive table directly through phpmyadmin shows txBatteryStatus as constantly NULL. A query:
select * FROM ‘archive’ WHERE txBatteryStatus <> NULL; returns no records. Everything else seems to work correctly (see weather.cusick.org.uk); having just had to replace the ISS battery, I thought I’d add the battery status to the ‘About’ page. Your help would be much appreciated.
