Monmul, we have not definitively heard whether or not you are able to do
the test listed under *Establishing connectivity
<https://github.com/weewx/weewx/wiki/Troubleshooting-the-Davis-Vantage-station#establishing-connectivity>*
in
the Wiki.That is an essential first step.
Use either screen or minicom. You may have to preface the command with 'sudo'.
For example,
*sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0 19200*
-tk
