I am attempting to get data from USB or an Accurite Weather Sensor,
model 06006 through python program called weewx. I wrote the weewx dist
list but got no answer so far. I am in foact not sure it's related to
weewx itself as I can not connect to the device even through ipython.
Throuh ipython I get this output:
=======================
/usr/local/lib/python3.8/site-packages/usb/backend/libusb1.py in _check(ret)
583 if ret < 0:
584 if ret == LIBUSB_ERROR_NOT_SUPPORTED:
--> 585 raise NotImplementedError(_strerror(ret))
586 elif ret == LIBUSB_ERROR_TIMEOUT:
587 raise USBTimeoutError(_strerror(ret), ret,
_libusb_errno[ret])
NotImplementedError: Operation not supported or unimplemented on this
platform
I of course get similar output if I try the acurite.py drive used by weewx:

Could someone shed some light on this. I will provide more info if
required. Any other alternative to access this device?
