Hi, Brian
Sorry for the late answer, my station is a Davis Pro 2 with a USB-logger, all my clientraw-files are updating, see screenshot and my config.text is also attached…Hope this helps!
Staccermaccer,
config.txt (3.85 KB)
so the problem is, that the data is not updating very fast?
in your config.txt
there is a setting to use davis usb
make sure that is set to Y
then restart
Hi to everyone.
I am trying to evaluate WD use for Linux in order to run it on a Raspberry Pi. For the moment I use a Pi 2 Model B. r I run the proper consolewdfiles tarball and WM918 station. So far I encounter the following issues.
- I see the connection ok on the terminal. The program reads the serial data sending “ok” messages and printing the values for weather parameters. Then I have several in a raw serial reads with message “resource temporarily unavailable”. Is this typical? Data are flowing though…
- I see no ftp activity at all. I have set everything to default values needed for using ftp but I see nothing uploaded on the ftp/web server (another Pi).
- Last but not least I see no place to insert my APRS details for Ham Radio (maybe this should be posted elsewhere). Config.txt has no entries and wdconsole.ini has some but anything written there, is whipped out the next time the program runs.
I would appreciate any suggestions / ideas?
Regards and Thanks in advance

wow, I am not sure I have had anyone use a WM918 before
it looks like its not completely syncing OK with the station
can you copy/paste or show a screen shot of what you do see?
also for the previous person, a update of the silicon labs usb driver might help
Hi Brian from down under, (my daughter lives and works in Auckland, Hi).
I have solved the ftp issue. Now only remains APRS and syncing. Weather station is a Huger WX200 a clone of WM918. Here is a capture:

re CWOP
make sure for the ID you remove the // and anything after that
i.e you just have the ID only in the config
(and similar for any other settings)
Hmm, I am useing the Davis Weather Envoy 6316 and an RS323/USB converter (startech.com ICUSB2321F)…usb plugged into my Pi…and this is what I get…no USB connection …/dev/ttyUSB0 does not exist, I have looked!

The serial device /dev/ttyUSB0 does not exist or is not s tty
Could not open /dev/ttyUSB0
Check the port exist in “/dev”, or the permissions are set to rw-rw-rw
I thought the problem was (and probably is) that I did not plug the USB in on boot…I tried rebooting with USB plugged in and it will not boot now (7 green flashes mode!), so it must have become corruped when booting with the USB attached…???
I seem to be getting places…slowly. Got the Data Logger to work finally…
For the line (below) in the config file…as I have a serial Data Logger converted via cable to a USB output, should I use 1 or 2?
Davis com method=2 //1 for serial, 2 for usb data logger
Comport number (e.g 1)=U //For non USB stations (e.g Davis, OS WMR968)…not sure what to use for this either??
…or for these two??
Davis com method=2 // 1 for regular 2 for special davis serial read
Revb Davis VP=Y (Y for Yes (new model (default) ) N for No)
you could always experiment
I could …but as there are a lot of variables, I could be experimenting for some time! I was rather hoping that some kind soul who had been down this path would be able to give me pointers!
there is only 1 variable
For the original one yes…but there are the variables for the others also…as shown above
Comport number (e.g 1)=U //For non USB stations (e.g Davis, OS WMR968)…not sure what to use for this either??
…or for these two??
Davis com method=2 // 1 for regular 2 for special davis serial read
Revb Davis VP=Y (Y for Yes (new model (default) ) N for No)
since its a usb to serial adaptor, its a usb type port, so you set that as U, as you have
so no change needed
then that just leaves the davis com method (I would leave that as 2)
no need to change the other one
I think you are making this harder than it needs to be
Hello,
Is it possible to shorten the update interval?
less than 60 seconds for metetemplate?
thank you
I have added that option
but someone else reported it caused problems with other uploads
set the meteotemplate fast option in the config.txt file (recent RI 3 version update of consolewd)
Hello,
that i have ready made.
Thank You
so you have set Y for fast MT updates?
and that works
or?
Hello,
yes i think it works, upload evry one minute.
Hello,
another question, since the consolen operation I have no minimum temperature values one my website. what am I doing wrong?
Thank You
I work with meteotemplate.
