Re: Davis VP2 Relay Device

8 re-syncs is a lot more than I have seen - here are some numbers for the last 48 hours from mine. I didn't know that I could see the stats for each transmitter until I read the above post, so these figures from yesterday are only for the ISS/Moteino: Console 1: rx1 ISS - rx2 Wind - rx3 Extra Temp C...

Re: Davis VP2 Relay Device

Upon closer inspection, I see that rain on rx1 is turned to "off" when I go back in to setup. I didn't notice it because the console displays 0.00 until there is some rain whether it's receiving or not. I checked and that happens with the 2017 files as well. I'm not going to go change any ...

Re: Davis VP2 Relay Device

That fixed it. So far stats are excellent - will let it run and keep and eye on them.

Thanks again

Re: Davis VP2 Relay Device

Aha - no I didn't. That section isn't in the old file so not in my notes.

I notice that solar is the only "0" in the default settings and that is the only field that populated - probably what my problem was.

I will do some editing and try again later.

Thanks

Re: Davis VP2 Relay Device

I had problems with the current github files as well. Originally with the 2017 files I had the console receiving only from the Adruino on rx3 and had the phantom gust problem reported earlier in this thread. I tried the new files and Arduino v1.8.13 software and had to copy files as iandrews listed ...

Re: Davis VP2 Relay Device

If in the console you define one transmitter as say wind, then it will ignore wind data from every other transmitter. I quit using my Moteino due to phantom wind gusts (and how much of a hassle it was to edit them out). IIRC I was receiving all data on the console via the Moteino set as tx3 and had...

Re: Davis VP2 Relay Device

I didn't re-read this post, but I don't think this is mentioned....If you ever look at your console and want to see UV and solar the following applies. I have no idea about the Metobridge Pro (red), but according to Davis tech support if you plug the UV and solar sensors into your wireless anemomete...

Re: What to Run MX on that is low resource os?

I got it up and going pretty simple. What is a easy way to share files between the pi and windows? If you are using Real VNC...there are two places to access the file transfer dialog. To go from Windows to the Pi use the one in the center top with two arrows pointing in each direction (not visible ...

Re: What to Run MX on that is low resource os?

If all you want is CumulusMX, you do NOT need the "Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit) with desktop and recommended software". So that narrows the choice to "Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit) with desktop" or "Raspberry Pi OS (32-bit) Lite". "Lite" does not have a GUI. The access...

Re: Standing at the precipice...

Before you spend any $$$ on it (like buying a Win 7 license) - I would recommend researching Raspberry Pi if you haven't already. Cheap, tiny, silent and has been rock solid for me.

Re: Missing data on dashboard

Raspbian Buster w/Desktop - 5.18 installed here as well. I used to force a newer version pr...

Re: CumulusMX dashboard password protect

You could edit the html to remove the settings related links. That doesn't block access to them, but you would have to know the address to manually access them rather than just clicking a link. I guess along those lines you could also delete the settings pages and just upload them when you need to u...
