Extra Sensors for WMR100A(WMR918/68)
« on: August 26, 2008, 12:25:30 AM »
Thanks for the fix to make the extra temperature and humidity sensors work with the WMR100A similar to the WMR918/68. Two more things when you have the time. It seems that for the three extra sensors I have the current temperature and humidity is being captured. The daily low / high and low time / high time does not seem to be captured or calculated in the corresponding WMR918/68 tag. They seem to be showing the max and min temperature settings for the devices. Is this something I need to do in the configuration of the extra sensors or is it a change to the code? Below is a static look at my site or you can view it www.tricconsulting.com/weather.

I can have up to ten temperature and humidity sensors I can purchase for use with my WMR100A. I would like to add additional beyond the three extra I currently have. Are the other numbers just not shown in the tagslist.txt file or are there only 3 extra humidity and temperature sensor tags defined for the WMR918/68?

General purpose extra tags do not have min and max and time like WMR918/68 tags do (at least I do not see these in tagslist.txt with Linux version).

Everything worked but the following tags:

%dallasextrahum2hightime%...Dallas 1 wire 2nd humidity high time
%dallasextrahum2lowtime%....Dallas 1 wire 2nd humidity low time
%dallasextrahum3hightime%...Dallas 1 wire 3rd humidity high time
%dallasextrahum3lowtime%....Dallas 1 wire 3rd humidity low time

They filled in blanks for the times. I tried a couple of variations moving the 2 around, but neither worked. All else did work using the Dallas 1 Wire extra values for temp and hum extremes and times. The default non-numbered humidity high and low times also word from the Dallas 1 Wire extra humidity tags.

those tags are for 1 wire humdity sensors with temperature
use instead
%hiws2000sen1ht%
and
%lows2000sen1ht%
up to
%hiws2000sen9ht%
%lows2000sen9ht%

try that
