Extra Sensors

Post by Mr.Chris »

Hi,
I am struggeling with extra sensors. My weather station setup is the following:
Ecowitt HP2551 with
WH65
additional WN31 for Temp., Pressure and Humidity
WH57 Lightning Sensor
WH51 Soil Moisture

What I can see in CMX is only the lightning Sensor under "Extra Sensors" and the indoor Temp.


I was following the instruction of the Wiki to enable the log of extra sensors (https://www.cumuluswiki.org/a/Extra_Sen ... ra_Sensors), but nothing in addition shows up in CMX.

Do I miss something?

Regards,
Chris

OK, sorry, but there is problem with the soil moisture in the latest release - it will actually appear as a soil temperature :bash:
