New uses, Davis 6163 + Weatherlink USB + Meteohub

Post by goombah »

Hi... just unpacking my new Davis Vantage Pro 2 (6163) unit and trying to get it to work with Meteohub.

The console is working fine, showing all sensors.

The usb adapter is showing up on the Meteohub as /dev/ttyUSB0 and /dev/ttyMH131 in the Weather Station section.

The Meteohub "First Steps" document implies the sensor data should be coming in, but I'm not showing anything. I've tried both /dev devices via the pull-down, no change. If I unplug the console, both devices disappear from the menu, as expected.

I'm presuming I'm doing something very basic wrong. Can someone shed some light?

Patience was the key, it takes a minute or three for the sensors to show up:
