Re: FTP fails

Thank you so much @BigAlT and @36260. I resolved the problem for the moment by the simple expedient of reverting the software back two versions to SD card image (Version 5.0f) **outdated**. This worked instantly. I am not sure if this will cause problems down the road; I hope not but reverting to ...

Re: FTP fails

@36260 Thanks for that: Very helpful although it would not be possible for me to change the router. The Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) runs a very tight ship in UK and Ireland and it is a concession by them to allow me to plug my RPi into one of only two open ports in their communication ...

Re: FTP fails

@36260: I have been running an online Meteohub weather station on a SheevaPlug for about 10 years. It is housed in the Lifeboat Station in Wexford, Ireland. This Autumn the Sheevaplug expired. I attempted to change over to an RPi 2B running version 5.0s (Build 180) which worked for a month or so and ...

Re: Multiple stations connected to meteohub?

USB hubs can be used to add more stations.

USB serial coupled weather stations can be addressed via enumerated "/dev/ttyUSBx" devices or (preferred) by device specifiers like "/dev/ttyMHxyz" where xyz does reference the physical USB port used.

USB HID coupled devices can only be used one of each ...

Re: Multiple stations connected to meteohub?

I don't know, if it helps, but I'm currently running a TFA Nexus connected as USB HID and an ELV WDE1 connected as USB serial (/dev/ttyUSB0).
Both weather stations are connected to a powered (the WDE1 is powered from USB and the Sheeva power is weak) USB2 hub and the hub to the Sheeva plug.

Oh ...

Re: Automatic push of data to MySQL server

Hi,
Here's my version for doing this - again its a php script..but there's no encoding... You may find it useful or not!

http://www.wexfordharbour.info/csvimport_sheeva.zip

It's pretty simple, and requires a little bit of editing depending on what you want to achieve.
You'll need to set your ...

Re: Multiple stations connected to meteohub?

Ah, Now i understand there's a little more to it than just attaching a usb hub.

So if I understand, the Davis only gives me a serial output, which can be converted to USB serial using a 'WeatherLink data logger'...(I've seen i could hack together one using an Arduino / FTDI breakout....but don't ...

Re: Multiple stations connected to meteohub?

Ah, would there be trouble with using a usb hub on the sheeva?

(by the way, it will be a Davis Vantage Vue, if that makes any difference!)

Multiple stations connected to meteohub?

Hi,

We've been using a WMR200 for some time (version 4.9h software on a SheevaPlug), but are finding the Oregon to be a little undependable (the sensors keep dying or seizing etc).
It looks like we are going to get a Davis system, but unfortunately there does not seem to be a floating thermometer ...

Indoor instead of outdoor temp in clientraw from WMR200

We have been using Meteohub interfaced with a WMR200 to power our website http://www.wexfordharbour.info. Weather data is extracted from the file all_sensors.csv and everything is working fine. Recently we attempted to supply data to Irish Weather Network (http://www.irelandsweather.com/index.php ...
