Re: Cron Doubt

No there isn't, not directly anyway, you'd have to do it via a web server call.

MX can call a script locally, if you can make that script do what you want...?

Re: Cron Doubt

I'm not sure what you are trying to do with the cron job. Is that the upload.php that is supplied with Cumulus MX?

It cannot be run that way, it has to be called from Cumulus MX as it uses encrypted content.

Re: Version 4 Release Candidate #2

As a temporary workaround, enabling the Advanced Option - "Ignore PHP certificate errors" will get it working, albeit without checking your hosts HTTPS certificate.

Re: Sunshine today

Also, make the reboot at a time when a log entry isn't being created, so 00:32 say.

Re: V4 WLL Wind Speed Bug on Restart

The next build of v4 has a rewritten broadcast handling routine that recovers from missed packets much better. The current version seems to take its time to start seeing them again every so often.

Re: Sunshine today

Do you really need a daily reboot anyway? I often leave my Linux running for months between reboots.

Re: Sunshine today

midnight is the worst possible time to reboot if you are using a midnight rollover, which is when Cumulus is doing its end of day processing which will mess up all sorts of things, including daily sunshine.

Re: Cumulus 3.28.6 b3283 WeatherLink Live Reboot missing sensors

I'm not 100% sure what has gone wrong, but to get you going again please edit your Spike settings... Settings > Calibration Settings: Pressure: Spike=99999, Min=0, Max=99999 Outdoor Temperature: Spike=9999, Min=-20, Max=9999 And see if that works, if not post the MXdiags log file after making those ...

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...

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
