I have been trying to get Xastir to get weather data from my Davis Vantage Pro2 without success.
I am using Xastir setup on Linux Mint 18.3. My console has a solid wireless data connection with the Pro2, displaying current weather data. For the data connection between Xastir and the Davis Vantage Pro2 console I have tried: (1) an older (circa pre-2008) WeatherLink USB Data Logger (2) the serial-port #6540 WeatherLink APRS Data Logger (3) the serial-port #6510 WeatherLink Data Logger >From my review of this email list's archive, the #6510 serial-port Data Logger should work as it provides data to the serial port without being promoted. This eliminates the need for using the meteo and mysqldb work around. I have had no success establishing a link between the console and Xastir to display the console's weather data. I have tried using the serial ports on my computer as well as using a USB-to-serial adapter. Nothing has worked. Can anyone provide specific directions or instructions to enable Xastir to receive data from my Vantage Pro2 console? Thank you for your assistance, Scott _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list Xastir@lists.xastir.org http://xastir.org/mailman/listinfo/xastir
