Raspberry Pi and Weather Display

Hi Wim,

I just checked the config part and i adjust the last line from 1 to 2 and now it works. Thanks a lot for you’re feedback!

Now my vp is running on the RI3 :smiley:

Now i tested the PI3 for i while, i see there is no logfile is made for my soil temp sensor… I need this logfile for my personal excel file i fill in for a weather association i’m member of.

Even when i tried to make a costum wx.html page with the soil temp tag(s), it gives a wrong number or stays at 0…

:?

There are only actual min and max tags for soil-sensors when suing consoleWD, it supports 4 sensors


soilTempAct       %soiltemp%        %VPsoiltemp2%      %VPsoiltemp3%   %VPsoiltemp4%
soilTempMaxToday  %maxsoiltemp%   %hiVPsoiltemp2%  %hiVPsoiltemp3% %hiVPsoiltemp4%
|soilTempMinToday %minsoiltemp%    %loVPsoiltemp2%  %loVPsoiltemp3% %loVPsoiltemp4%

They returned correct values when I used them with two sensors.

soilTempAct 13.9 14 255 19
soilTempMaxToday 15.6 14.4 -50.0 18.9

I attach a complete list of known WD tags from 2013 => wxlocal-taglist2013.html
And the file as processed by consoleWD => taglist.txt
A lot of tags are not processed in the version I used then (12-3), but there are values for the soil temp and moist sensors.

Hi Wim,

If i use those tags i’m getting this:

My VP2 Soil temp (wich i’m yousing for grass temperature) is located in my VP2 station as VPsoil3

When i’m using the consolewd on the PI3 i’m getting nothing; value 0


A complete soil sensor set is a temp sensor and a moist sensor.
Some weather-programs do not accept measurements for only a temp sensor on a soil station and discard the measurements.
I do not know if this is also the case with consoleWD.
But if you let consoleWD process the complete wxlocal-taglist2013.html, you maybe find another sensor value which is the one you are looking for?

Just runned the taglist2013 file for about 15 minutes and nothing is fit for my needs…

In WD windows you can use the soil temp seperated from the moist values…

Maybe Brian can help me?

Even so for making a log file for this sensor type


have been away on a language course over the weekend
what is the custom tag you want to use in consolewd?

I want to use a costumtag for my soil temp sensor… In the WD windows version it works separated from the moist sensor. In the console version it doesnt… Stay’s at 0.0

Even a logfile should be made for that sensor…

just looking at this
it looks you have a soil temp 3 data coming in
that you want a custom tag for
I will see about adding custom tags for all 4 possible vp soil temperature

there should be a log file
extravpdata.txt
and
%VPsoiltemp4%
custom tag should work
