Re: Implementation notes
OK, Boris, many thanks - that's all useful to know. So essentially whenever MS might restart (eg power cycle or outage) it needs formally to be reinitialised.

Implementation notes
Are there any updated/expanded MS implementation notes (from the original that's online)? Guessing the answer's probably no, but just thought I'd ask. eg: 1. Does MS reliably remember its settings when powered off for some time? ie so there's no need to reinitialise Tx, format etc settings at each r...

Re: Meteobridge PRO Barometer? - Response and Accuracy?
@D2149: The underlying problem here IMO is that there is more than one approach to correcting pressure to MSL. Davis use one approach while other authorities may use different algorithms. The Davis readings are not necessarily the gold standard, in fact Davis pressure readings seem quite commonly to...

Re: Clarification of SMS instructions (Resolved)
Looking at our MessageBird account again today, there's a possibility that despite having paid the Paypal invoice yesterday, apparently successfully, the credits may not have been correctly applied to our account. Still trying to understand the MessageBird dashboard in detail and in the process of f...

Re: Clarification of SMS instructions
Yes. You have the remote login details which should be unchanged. You're welcome to take a look. But maybe time for a beer (I've had mine tonight!)!

Re: Clarification of SMS instructions
When does the error show up? When doing "Test SMS" in the "service definition" section at the bottom of "Services" tab or on "live data" tab when sms sending has been triggered? What does "Test SMS" in "service definition " section return?...

Re: Clarification of SMS instructions
Thanks, making some progress in that the SMS access to MessageBird is validating now, but message-sending is still failing. Live Data shows an error: Error: WARNING: cannot verify rest.messagebird.com's certificate, issued by '/C=US/O=DigiCert Inc/CN=DigiCert SHA2 Secure Server CA': Unable to locall...

Clarification of SMS instructions (resolved)
The current release log says 'All you need to make use of this service is to insert your MessageBird password', but presumably the Originator field should contain your MessageBird user name (ie rather than 'MeteoBridge') or am I misunderstanding how this service should work? But either way we still ...

Re: Problem with wind direction data from Vantage view
But the point is that there is something approximating to a standard way of calculating the mean direction (as opposed to the dominant direction) and that is simply to average the unit vectors.

Re: Problem with wind direction data from Vantage view
You may not be convinced but it is the method that is widely used in analyses of wind data. See for example:

Re: Problem with wind direction data from Vantage view
What you're currently calculating is the dominant wind direction in an interval rather than the average. I think the usual solution to calculating the mean direction is to separate each direction into u and v components, average each and then recombine with an arctan function to give a mean value. O...

Trend in wind direction
One of our potential users is interested in whether MBP could deliver a trend value for wind direction. This is quite important apparently for sailing and shipping. Really all they need to know is whether the wind direction is veering (changing direction clockwise) or backing (anticlockwise). Of cou...

Re: MB PRO to support multiple ISS (like envoy8x)
Looks like the basis for a big step forwards in functionality. But to make it clear to simple-minded people like me, could you spell out how the enumeration will work in a concrete example - I think part of the uncertainty is defining what constitutes an ISS. Take the following example, which could ...

Re: Selectors for different station day start-times
TBH I'm not sure that Steve would necessarily take the same view nowadays (that post was from 2009 IIRC) with the new Cumulus MX with (I think) an SQLite-based data store. I've done something myself in the past with a program that moved and consolidated Weatherlink data into a master SQL database. T...

Re: Selectors for different station day start-times
OK, that's a bit of a disappointment. It's definitely a feature of some other software like Cumulus, see eg the first couple of posts at: http://sandaysoft.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=574 There may be a better term than 'station day' but it's the one I'm more familiar with. The principle is we...
