[weewx-user] Solar radiation Belchertown

According to MQTT my weatherstation has "maxSolarRad_Wpm2": "340.60620184000464", but the Belchertown skin is showing it as 40 W/m². Have I got to change the units to something else? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group. To unsubscribe

Re: [weewx-user] Re: WS90 Signal Strength And Battery Status

Absolutely, I just wanted to point out there is more than one way to skin the cat. I too have my skin customisations in weewx.conf and when I rebuild my system the current database goes with it so no problems there. Gary On Thursday, 22 June 2023 at 02:11:58 UTC+1 vince wrote: > The reason I m

[weewx-user] Re: Solar radiation Belchertown

Looking at this again, I was confusing maxSolarRad_Wpm2 and radiation_Wpm2, but the reading is still different to what is shown on the weather station's own display where it is showing 700 W/m² and I'm getting 129.946 W/m² from weewx_sdr. Running RTL_433 directly is showing Watts/m : 129.95

[weewx-user] Plot for progressive rain accumulation

I have looked through again the Customization guide, the Image Files section and don't find a pre-programmed option for a plot which I'd like to have. There are a lot, but when it comes to rain, the hour  by hour plot shows when and how much, but I'm hoping to find a plot that shows the more (

something like this should work: (you need to put your own labels 😉)    [[[dayrain4]]]     # Make sure the y-axis increment is at least 0.02 for the rain plot     yscale = None, None, 0.02     plot_type = bar   #line     width = 2     rain1

Thank you.  I will try this when I get to play a bit this afternoon. The next thing, of course, is hoping for rain!  We have entered a moderate drought here, with Minnesota being worse off than we are here in Western Wisconsin.    Some places there have had a trace or few tenths over the last

[weewx-user] weather station for 400-600 Euros

Hi guys, as the title suggest, I'm searching for a weather station in the 400-600 Euro price range. Currently I have a Froggit WH1080 SE, but after around 4.5 years, it seems that the station could fail completely in the next days/weeks. So I'd like to be prepared, if it's completely broken. W

[weewx-user] Re: weather station for 400-600 Euros

Hi Flo, I had similar requirements and finally bought Ecowitt hardware some weeks ago and I'm really happy with it. They have a modular approch and you can choose between numerous consoles, gateways, sensors, ... That was the main reason why I chose this hardware. You can also get spare parts an

[weewx-user] Re: weather station for 400-600 Euros

Thanks Michael for your reply. I'm aware of the Ecowitt/Universe. Earlier this afternoon, a guy from Ecowitt suggested some Froggit Stations, for example the Froggit HP1000SE Pro Ultrasonic and the GW2000/DP2000 in a German forum for weather stations. Since a friend of mine had also a WH1080 SE

sorry to say that but you are just trading subjective non-representative opinions regarding Ecowitt (and clone) stations and hardware modern Ecowitt stations have proven to be quite reliable and to compare an ancient WH1080 with the modern Fine Offset / Ecowitt hardware is like comparing a yea

Regarding your first post: This is actually correct. I thought, the community here in the google group may be larger and therefore I can get more input. I'm just wondering, if the Vantage Vue really is the only weather station in this price range, which is compatible with weewx. "if you can

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather station for 400-600 Euros

just technically speaking: if your server stands in a DMZ, it has a internal LAN side and an external WAN side. You should be able to access the server (and an application running on it) from the internal LAN side. Then, why do you need an extra WLAN access point at the server/ VM ? I'm not say

Re: [weewx-user] Re: weather station for 400-600 Euros

Because the server is in a different subnet than my LAN. Let's say the server is in the 10.10.20.0/24 net and on my LAN I have the 10.10.10.0/24 net. A demilitarized zone (DMZ) has only access to the internet and to no other net. A Firewall rule blocks outgoing connections from the DMZ to all o
