Thank you for your time in responding. It is correct that byows_rpi extension <https://github.com/jardiamj/BYOWS_RPi> is mostly just a python file (byows_rpi.py) saved to /usr/share/weewx/user/
I have followed the directions at the git repository and have verified with Change Driver <https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/Change-driver> that I've done the appropriate things to weewx.conf as well. When I run either of the commands you listed I receive the same error as before: class ByowsRpi(weewx.drivers.AbstractDevice) NameError: name 'weewx' is not defined On Saturday, July 23, 2022 at 9:02:42 AM UTC-6 tke...@gmail.com wrote: > 1, It looks like the byows_pi extension does not use the extension > installer, so weewx has no way of knowing of its existence.
