Davis VP2 with serial (6510ser) with RaspberryPi

Hi

Ive got a Davis with serial connection. Is there a way for me to connect it to a Raspberry Pi / WD ? All the guides Ive seen is using the USB connection…

Thinking about getting a RS232 to TTL and hook that up to the GPIO ports on the RPi…

And leave my WD running winxp… Mainly just to conserve energy…

Question no. 2 : Is there a way to transfer the history (datafiles) from win to Rpi ?

Hi
if you use a usb to serial converter, that is linux compatible, then it should work
(linux, including Raspberry pi, as alot of drivers built in)
it should then show up as a /dev/tty1 sort of thing
