Hello, I am just setting up my MeteoBridge and have a couple questions

Is there a way set the time format to a 12 hr clock (i.e. 3:00pm) vs the 24 hr clock (i.e. 15:00h)?

In the historical data is there a way to change the date? For example, I know from my VP Console the low temp this was 25 F but when I set it in the historical data it sets date of the entry day. So show a yearly low temp on 24 May of 25 F for Dallas/Ft Worth

Is it possible to duplicate the functionality of of the Virtual VP software from using the MeteoBridge, MeteoHub, or MeteoPlug?

Finally I looked at the sites for a comparative breakdown of the MeteoBridge, MetoHub and MeteoPlug products but didn't find one. If I missed it please point me to it.

Thanks
Brian

No, no yet. Do you need that for using time in templates?

No, but nice idea. I will put that on my todo list.

Sorry, I don't understand that. What exactly do you look for?

I'm using the saratoga-weather template for Meteohub http://weather.kentley.com I may have missed a time setting somewhere I will do some more research.

I'm looking for the ability to have the MetoBridge or MetoHub act as a Virtual Vantage Pro station/datalogger. This would enable the ability to feed data via IP to multiple weather programs (Cumulus, VWS, Weatherlink, Weather Snoop, WeatherTracker). There is a program for PCs that did this http://www.softwx.com/weather/virtualvp.html and it would be great if one of your products could do this. I discovered that the MeteoHub does something similar this with Weather Display and a http feed but it looks like it is limited just to WD. This seems to be a limitation of the weather programs which look for specific feeds.

Thanks for the quick reply. I am really happy I discovered your products!

I know this is old, but, this would be awesome if the Meteobridge could act as a WeatherlinkIP bridge, so to speak... In other words, acting as the sole IP connection to a Weatherlink IP, and then allowing the creation of additional ports on the Meteobridge that would allow connections from other pieces of software and act as a "gatekeeper", so to speak. Example: WeatherlinkIP 192.168.1.10:22222, Meteobridge 192.168.1.11:3000,3001,3002,3003; etc. would be used as the IP address of the weather station in software.

yeah, but port multiplexing for the vantage bidirectional communication is something very tricky as it has to monitor state of communication of all clients. And a perfect solution is rather impossible. They designed their communication protocol so badly...
