Am trying to set up another PC on a LAN with data from the PC hosting WD. Think have followed all these steps:
Purpose:
To allow the weather station to be connected to a PC which is not in the desired viewing location but is on the same LAN.
General:
Depending on whether this PC is the source of the data (server) or is a viewer workstation (client), follow the steps in the proper paragraph below. When completed, all data collected from the weather station by the server PC will be broadcast on the LAN. This broadcast data will be received by all client PCs and displayed on their WD screens.
At the PC where the weather station is connected:
Click on “Setup” in the menu bar. Click on “Setup / FTP / Internet …”. Click on the tab labeled “TCP/IP Client/Server”. Click the button at the upper left side labeled “Server Enabled”. You may want to click the button labeled “Show indoor temp/hum on client”. Click OK.
At each PC where the weather data is to be viewed:
Install WD on the machine. Follow the procedures in QuickStart but choose a station type of “Stationless”. You do not need to select a Comm. port, nor do you have to enable FTP.
Click on “Setup” in the menu bar. Click on “Setup / FTP / Internet …”. Click on the tab labeled “TCP/IP Client/Server”. Click the button at the middle left side labeled “Client Enabled”. You may want to click the button labeled “Show indoor temp/hum on client”. Click OK.
Have checked files on the remote PC and files look as though they are updating OK but the temperature showing and other data is incorrect.
Any suggestions of what I may have missed?!
Many thanks
Did you use the procedure in the FAQ, if not I suggest running through these screens ? http://discourse.weather-watch.com/t/12963
At the bottom of tab labeled "TCP/IP Client/Server is a place to set the location of the clientraw.txt. Make sure you’re in the correct directory and that the drive is mapped to allow access.
