Weatherflow setup

I am trying to set up my weatherflow station in WD. It seems to work, but I am missing the data from the sky unit. See attached screen shot for set up info. Did I miss a step somewhere? The info from the air unit is showing, but nothing from the sky unit.

I tested here and it works
with your ID
but I did not set to get the sensor names (i.e those are blank) (you only need to do that if you have more than one station)
I re did that , and its still working
have you tried restarting WD?
also what version/build of WD?

Mine worked when I set it up with the following settings. Meant to send Brian an “attaboy” on the easy setup! :D/

These are the name of the sensors when I did the initial WeatherFlow setup.

I also did not “set to get sensor names”.

Cheers

I took out the sensor names and restarted WD. Still no wind direction or speed. Added just Air and Sky to sensor names and restarted WD and the same, no wind direction or speed. I am using the latest version, downloaded the trial and put it on a different computer than my other WD software.

that is strange
if you could email me your settings files I will test/check here

does the windspeed/direction data show in the weatherflow app?

Yes it does. you can see it here - https://smartweather.weatherflow.com/station/4918/grid

When I got to :Tempest

Settings - Stations - Thornhurst PA weatherflow - manage devices - WD air or WF sky the name of the units will show up. In my case it’s either WF air or WF sky and that’s what I entered for sensor name in WD WeatherFlow station setup.

That’s what I showed in the previous screenshot. Worked for me.

I have tried -

  1. No sensor name
  2. WF Air and WF Sky
  3. Get sensor name

None work for SKY

when I unset to use UDP (so I do not get my weatherflow data) in the separate cronweatherflow app
and then restart WD
I do not get windspeed/direction data
showing in the cronweatherflow app
that is the problem

I will investigate

for what ever reason, there is no SKY OBS data arriving into the cronweatherflow app
when I do not have set to use UDP data (and so gets the data from the weather flow servers)

something has gone wrong in the setup I would say (i.e a problem on the weather flow server end)

do you have ticked to use the UDP data in the cronweatherflow program?

what shows in the file weatherflow2.txt in the WD web files folder?

also I cant view your data
maybe you have it not set to be public


weatherflow2.txt (317 Bytes)

My data is and has been set to public. Can anyone else see it? https://smartweather.weatherflow.com/station/4918/grid

No - login required. . .

Also for mikeym at #4751.

Same, asks for email and PW

No, your public link should be: https://smartweather.weatherflow.com/share/4918/grid

That’s better! I can see it now. . .

Looks OK to me.

OK, thanks. was not aware of the separate “share” folder
