Air pressure wrong with RFXCOM

Post by efiten »

Hi,

Until last month i had a Raspberry Pi with a WMR200 weatherstation connected over USB.
This worked for over a year, but I wasn't pleased with all the cables behind the weathter station, that's why i purchased an RFXCOM transceiver.

Everything works well, but the air pressure is wrong... a lot....

When I look at the sensor-reading :
1000.0mb (1008.0mb) fc:-1

But on my station's screen it displays 1014mb.

I set the stations geolocation correct in the "weather station' menu, and the "stations altitude" to the correct altitude above sealevel.
Sea Level calculation is done based on the outside temperature.

What do I do wrong ?

You can select how sealevel pressure is calculated on "weather station" page.
