WBGT and BGT data appear incorrect. **solved**

Post by grwkak »

Just updated to the latest build. In doing so and looking at the live data I see that my BGT reports the imperial data as metric and then converts it to an incorrect imperial data value. WBGT is not present and instead I have CPU T #9. See attached screenshot.
Is there a bug or error? Using a GW3000.

when you give me remote login credentials, I can have a look what goes wrong with unit conversions.

Thanks! Looks like WBGT is still not labelled as such (CPU T #9).

@admin - did the change involve any WiFi related code? Since the update my Meteobridge will not stay connected to WiFi. Started around midnight last night (EDT) - rebooted my router, no change, rebooted Meteobridge - no change. It loses connection to my Tempest and GW3000 as well so no data collected. Data for the primary cabled station (Davis) are collected.

No, basic network layers have not been touched for ages. When WiFi is weak it might need to repeat packets and timeouts might apply that you don't have on a wired connection. But just a guess.

May be my router security (which is new, but also in the same room as the meteobridge). Created a separate network for weather stuff with older security - that seemed to work.
