I am gonna get an Envoy, 1, so it can get 0.0 even though my soil temp is showing on the console at 0.0 :?
But also so that i can move the console inside to any room i fancy, problem might be that it wont reach the ISS
If thats the case, can the Envoy retransmit to the console as well as deliver the data to WD, or can the Envoy
only do 1 or the other, not both.
Can the envoy retransmit to the console in the house as well as deliver the data to WD?
You’re right I’m completely lost. What makes you think using the envoy instead of the console would make any difference in the resolution (decimals) of the soil temp?
I was at home Envoy 8X, which can receive up to 8 ISS.
Can record the temperature at 0.1C from each temperature transmitter.
The problem is that the console uses an external temperature resolution of 0.5 and 0.6C, and thus these values are loaded round.
It’s in the software console and transferring Envoy of the console does not help.
I had to come back because this conga supported by WD.
I managed to get hold of a cheap envoy not x
I was told the other day on here that the envoy will do 0.0 opposed to the console only rounding it to 0
I also wanted the envoy so that I can move the console to where I want to in the house.
I want to know, if the iss cannot reach the console at the front of the house, cane the envoy retransmit to the console whilst still giving data to WD?
Not the regular, non-8x, Envoy, resolution depends on the sensor itself.

OK thanks Niko, one more then, on my console, the soile is showing to 0.0 and 0, shows it I 2 sections, I posted a shot of it I’m the other day, yet wd only shows it to 0
Not quite 100% sure what ya mean, oh, hold on yes, i know what ya mean lol
Yes it does, say for example 1.2C, the non decimal figure will show, if its below 0.5 rounded to the lower
if its above 0.5 it will rounded up to the next, eg if the soil # is showing 1.3 in the other box it will show as 1
if its 1.8 it will show as 2
Oh, there is one other thing, I am sure I read somewhere that the stainless steel temp was rounded to 0 but the one I have isn’t, may have made that up mind, will have look online in the morning :
Hi folks, from what i gather, the Console is to the nearest 1C and both envoys to the nearest 0.1C or 1C,
but nothing said about the history and alarms for the 8x, thats the only difference i can find in the specs
Here’s the specs, i wrote it exact
The console (Outside temp/hum ISS)
Current data: 0.1
Standard consoles and Envoys (not 8X which is a different animal altogether) behave identically. You must distinguish between temps from primary inside/outside sensors and supplementary (eg leaf/soil) sensors.
All in/out temps are processed by the console as 0.1F temps and converted to
Hi John, thanks for the info, using it for the external probe for inside temp could be a good option
for me as my weather pc is in the conservatory and the door is open all day long unless i have to
go out, so you can imagine what the indoor temps is like :lol:
I have also found out that the soil temp is reading at 0.0, thats what VPLive is telling me so i am baffled as to
why WD only grabs it at 0, unless the output data from the console is only producing it at 0, that will explain
that, question is John, whilst you are here, does the Envoy output the soil temp at 0.0?
Wait, that cant be right, the data is being sent as 0.0 because VPLive picked it up at that lol mm interesting…
