that depends on the driver. VantageVue, VantagePro, etc are all served by the Vantage driver; you should use Vantage as the station_type there must be a stanza in the configuration file whose name matches whatever you specify for station_type. the driver field in that stanza indicates where to find the driver. most drivers use the station_type as a key for many configuration options. although editing the configuration directly will work just fine, you can avoid these issues and ensure that all of the per-driver options are set properly by using the wee_config tool (see the weewx user guide for details). it works with any driver that implements the right methods. for many types of hardware, the wee_device utility will let you talk directly with the hardware to change its settings. m -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-user" group.
