Hello Brian,
Ive moved here from my other thread.
I have read through this thread. Is it suggesting that I use the Ws 1001 wiwfi file raw data file from script ?
So I need to set up a local server and have the station send its data there so that the ws 1001 option reads it ?
Is this the only way ? I will have to look up how to do it as I’ve never ceated a local server before. I take it that wd at present
cannot directly query the ip address of the station ?
Thanks,
Michael
. I take it that wd at present cannot directly query the ip address of the station ?we have not worked on to see if that will actually work we could certainly try that what happens when you put the IP address and port of the station into a normal browser window URL and hit return..i.e like 192.168.0.1:5000
Hi Brian,
If I type the ip address with the port number it doesn’t find it and reports an error. The ip address on its own, works.
I have just downloaded easyweather 3.0 and it looks like it should be able to read my data and store it, but it cannot find the device.
I hope there is a way, it would be great to receive the data as fast as the station reports.
Michael
if you can get the data returned to a web page URL via the IP address (+port ?) then we are in business
(as that is what a HTTP GET request will be able to do)
maybe someone else with more knowledge of how it all works can chime in?
Hello,
The ip address followed by /livedata.htm goes straight to the live data page, but not sure that helps as it does not mention the port.
The data is in the html file, but have no idea how to extract it from the whole page.
Michael
try this test program
http://www.weather-display.com/downloadfiles/Projecttestip.zip
and see what shows in the file testip.txt
after putting in the url to the livedata.htm and clicking on go
Hello Brian,
I had to put the whole address in, including http:// and /livedata.htm
The response was:
OK
OK
Thanks, Michael
what shows in the testip.txt file?
Hello Brian,
Apologies, here is the text, it looks like all the data values are there and also maybe a form and a js script ?
If you look at this, can you look at the possibility of retrieving the data faster than 16 seconds, as I believe the wind sensor updates faster

this is good
this is what I hoped would get returned
I just need to parse out the data from that returned html /xml code (and yes update every 16 seconds) 
Hello Brian,
Many thanks, wind updates appear to be as fast as 5 seconds, ive just been refreshing the live data page.
Michael
OK, making good progress
will let you know when you can download a new .zip update of WD, and set this up in WD, to get the data from e.g http://1.92.168.2.1/livedata.htm
OK, try a new .zip update
and set the IP as needed and tick to use that
in the weather station type setup, stationless setup, Ambient WIFI Pro setup (tick that, then set the IP address correct, then tick use direct from this IP address
Thank you so much Brian
It works, aprox every 10-16 seconds. Its also reading the indoor temp and humidity which is great news as im mounting it outside at ground level
for ground level temp, especially in winter.
Only the solar needs tweaking / offset. Im not sure about the uvi, but that’s no biggy.
Now you can list the Aercus Weathersleuth pro as supported station, and maybe others based on same outdoor iss ? If you want I can email the retailer who sold me the station to say wd now supports it.
I can now build my home page with steel gauges and there will be a credit and link to weather display.
Thanks again, I’ve got everything I wanted and more from my pws now.
Michael
thats good
what is the difference between UV and UVI in the data?
I have used the UVI as the UV
Hi mickeyb and Brian,
I am in the process of setting up the Aercus ws-1001 clone.
What files do I need to put in the unit to access the livedata.php file.
And great work as usual, Brian.
Cheers
Philip
I think it works out of the box?
you just need to know what the IP address is
(first get the livedata.htm web page working in your browser)
hmmmmm!
There are two directories in the unit but nothing like a livedata.htm file anywhere.
Head scratch time.
Cheers
It’s probably dynamically created when you call the IP address
All I get is access denied when I go to
http://192.168.1.111.
With or without the http.
I wonder if things are different with my version. I have the WeatherRanger ver 2.3.1.
