Re: V4 WLL Wind Speed Bug on Restart

I took a look at this yesterday, I think I can make an improvement to the WLL station code, but only so much. The basic problem is the WLL provides two very different types of data. The broadcast data contains the last instantaneous (2.5 second) wind speed, but no average speed. The "current&qu...

Re: Help with Dashboard & Highcharts customisations

The dashboard gets all the weather data from a web socket feed, the data in that feed is fixed by MX so you cannot add more items to it. To add additional data to the dashboard, you will have to add your own JavaScript call to the MX API (as above), extract the data from the response, and then write...

Re: Low battery alarm

Paul, I'd say any cheap meter should be good enough for that purpose.

Re: Degrees symbol encoding

No change in the code in that area in b4020 from b4019 and it works fine in my tests. See the attached:
TEST-T.txt = Source file
TEST-UTF8.txt = Output with extra files UTF-8 flag set
TEST-ANSI.txt = Output with extra files UTF-8 flag unset

Re: Low battery alarm

Actually the WLL does not send a flag only a voltage. I have used < 5.4V as the threshold = 1.35V per cell. Which gives a reasonable usable capacity left. Remember these are backup batteries not service batteries, so they need a good usable capacity if they are to be any use. If they were service ba...

Re: AWEKAS transfer error ?

Whilst I try out some new code, you could try restarting MX, if I'm right that should slow down the errors for a period.

Re: AWEKAS transfer error ?

I get a lot of upload timeouts to AWEKAS as well. I'm going to drop it from my live system and just keep it on the debug for testing purposes.

Re: Additions to API data

You have to make a separate API call to get additional data that isn't sent in the Web Socket or currentdata data.

Re: Cumulus 3.28.6 b3283 WeatherLink Live Reboot missing sensors

Switch on debug and data logging, let MX run for 10 mins, then you can switch the logging off again and post the latest MXdiags file. Thanks.

Re: Ecowitt firmware version: GW1100C_V2.3.2

Yep, they have added the WS85 to the sensor info. I've added it to v4, and changed the code so it prints "unknown sensor" rather than raising an exception when they add the next one.

The error should be benign though and MX carries on OK?
