JD said that he “suspects” that would be the right change. It would help if you tested it, but be prepared for it not to work or break the driver. Save the original version of the file, and restart weewx after changing it in order to load the new version.
The location of the driver can depend on the type of OS and how you installed weewx. On my raspberry pi, it is /usr/share/weewx/weewx/drivers/ws28xx.py. -Les > On 20 Feb 2020, at 13:31, Dan Blanchard <dan.zopi...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I was under the impression that what JD wrote was a change I can make to the > driver.
