My setup is a Vantage Pro2 ISS transmitting to an Envoy connected to a Raspberry Pi5. WeeWX 5.1.0 install went fine with the default station ID (iss_id) set to 1. My neighborhood has another Vantage Pro on ID 1 so I wanted to be a good neighbor and change my station's ID to 5. Using "weectl device --set-transmitter-type=1,10" set the ID 1 device to inactive but left it marked as ISS. Running "weectl device -set-transmitter-type=5,0" returned success but failed to set the type to ISS although it did "activate" ID 5. As a workaround, I connected my Envoy to a PC with Davis software and configured the Envoy for ISS ID of 5. Reattaching the Envoy to the Pi and running "weectl device --info", I now see device ID 5 is active *and* an ISS. After configuring the Envoy with the Davis software, I'm back up and running fine with the station ID set to 5.
Perhaps there's an issue in "weectl device --set-transmitter-type" commanding the Envoy?
