I hope someone can help me here

 

The computer this used to be sat on has crashed and needed rebuilding.....

 

I'm trying to get this working and im having problems with this connecting to the weather station itself.

 

Everytime i ask it to connect to the weather station i get an error about a time command?

 

Ive tired a difference pc and still no luck...

 

Any help?

We had this kit a few years back and it was a bit of a pain - I think it may have used a serial interface to talk to the weather station. Have you checked that the batteries in the weather station and any interfaces are charged?

Ive left it and come back to it 1/2 hour later and its came back to life... Connected and now working. Just need to sort out the web site of things.

Has anyone got the active viewer working?

 

Ive got it connected to the server... (via another server) and it comes up with "Current Site down or data collision occured"

 

I'm i missing something....

Ah Weather View. I had some fun with this years back.

I'm sorry to say I can't help with the web side but what I did find is that hardware was often reluctant to talk to it unless everything was 'just so' in WV.

Often this would involve hidden settings seemily unrelated to what you were actually doing.

The software is crap. Unless I'm missing something it's all gotta be ftp to a server. It's a pain in the ass.

 

As I left work I thing I got it working.... Time will tell on Monday

Don't know if it works with this weather station but cumulus weather software from sandaysoft (donatioware)works with lots of different hardware. Using it at one of my schools with a maplin weather station. Only issues are due to the cheap hardware. There is beta version which works on a raspberry pi too.

Just had a look now. It's on the unsupported list :(

 

Any other software that might work with it?
