I downloaded the twi.py which you furnished at the above link, and copied it from the pi/Downloads directory to the /usr/share/weewx/user area and re-ran the wee_config --reconfigure program, but again only 12 choices were shown and the TWI was not one of them.
I'm sure it is my error with the trouble I had trying to move the file from my download directory to the /user area. I even tried modifying Mathew's install instruction to do so too but it had a run error so I guess that isn't going to work! I will try later after I rest my brain a bit, but am I correct in assuming the procedure to do is to download the twi.py you provided, move it from the Downloads area into the /usr/share/weewx/user area after removing the previous twi.py file, and then run the wee_config again, or have I missed a step? Thanks and sorry to be gumming up the works here. Dale On Saturday, April 30, 2022 at 3:26:25 PM UTC-5 tke...@gmail.com wrote: > I just did a quick port.
