weather means storm and storms means lighting strikes . unfortunately a lighting detector cost alot . but there is some light in the tunnel. there is a project
http://members.home.nl/fkooiman/lightning/ that can be a solution to all of us. if someone ( Frank also agree ) can made a linux software to do the job . the combination ( in the same machine ) will be a perfect one in all tool for all . an energy friendly solution will be a great solution . so we can have a total weather solution

Hi,

a Linux solution is already available, just have a look at

http://www.blitzortung.org/Webpages/ind ... =en&page=2

This solution is running here at my weather station now for nearly 1 year without any problems
It was (for me) very easy to set up the lighning monitor.

hi ulbr2000,
i´m running meteoplug on a alix1d board.
via /dev/ttyS0 data from a vantage pro run into the meteoplug system.

i want to connect the blitzortung.org interface to /dev/ttys1 and
run the tracker_toa script on the meteoplug sys.

i´ve tried several times to bring it alive, but didn´t work. can you instruct
me, howto ?
would appreciate your help.
all the best from austria
