Thanks for the detailed reply; I'll try to be more clear. I have two services running, as indicated by this line:
data_services = user.bme280wx.Bme280wx, user.gw1000.Gw1000Service The first service is an i2c sensor providing temp/humidity at the raspberry pi. It's options are so: [Bme280wx] temperature_must_have = "" humidityKeys = inHumidity pressureKeys = "" pressure_must_have = "" i2c_port = 1 humidity_must_have = "" i2c_address = 0x76 usUnits = US temperatureKeys = inTemp The sensor data are humidityKeys and temperatureKeys and they are mapped to inHumidity and inTemp. This service runs and reports properly; where my skin uses inTemp the data from the sensor is displayed. The GW1000 options are currently set so, following the instructions in your reply: [GW1000] driver = user.gw1000 [[field map]] extraTemp2 = inTemp extraHumid2 = inHumidity extraTemp1 = extraTemp1 extraHumid1 = extraHumid1 soilMoist1 = soilMoist1 Three of the fields provided by the GW1000 are the same in the database (the latter three), and they are reporting correctly. I want the GW1000 fields inTemp and inHumidity to map to the weewx database fields extraTemp2 and extraHumid2. That is not working with the field map as shown. Have I missed something?
